Food is always good. Fresh ingredients and great portions. Reasonable prices.
The food is usually good. However, last night, I saw a side of Carmelita that I had not seen before. As we were leaving, the male bartender came outside and yelled at one of the females staff to get back inside and sweep under a table. The way that he was speaking to her Was absolutely disgusting. In no way should this be tolerated in the workplace. We won’t be coming back.
Excellent filling food… Great combos.
