This was my second time coming here. I enjoyed the atmosphere and food was delicious. I love the decor! I ordered shrimp tostada and horchata. Both were delicious. The horchata was really good! Although the staff was really nice, it took the waitress a long time to come over and asked if we wanted our check. That's why I'm deducting a star off. Arroz con pollo delicious too but next time I will get it without the cheese.

The food was pretty good, but not great. We made mistake of going at 4 pm on a Sunday and it was really busy. This place is understaffed, so our waitress never had time to check on us. It took us maybe 10 minutes asking various servers to get us a serving spoon in order to get to our fajitas for 2.
Desert (flan and tiramisu) was really good. Fajitas were a little greasy.

Just a GREAT experience. All the food was homemade with great affection. The service was unbeatable. Cant wait to return.

I found this gem while in the area. I absolutely loved my barilla tacos, my son loved his steak and shrimp. The dining atmosphere is beautiful. I plan to dine in next time.

I liked the restaurant and I stopped for lunch and was sat immediately. I ordered the shrimp fajitas, they were good but would
have been better without some seasoning. The server was friendly but a little slow. I asked for hit salsa with my chips and it took about 15 minutes to be brought to the table. Not sure what took so long as therewere only about five tables with customers. I would go back and try a different dish.

Beautiful restaurant great service huge variety of options. I had the best lobster mango sushi. My friend got the shrimp tacos, which were huge. We ended up sharing and another person in my party got a pepperoni pizza. There’s something for everyone here and it all taste delicious and the service is, absolutely the best

I visited with high hopes, but unfortunately, my experience was less than satisfactory. I ordered a dish, but when it arrived, it was not what I had requested. I politely asked if I could receive the correct item.

When the manager returned with my food, he handed it to me and said, "Here is your food, primito." I was taken aback by this choice of words, as it felt inappropriate and unprofessional. I’m not sure if the manager thought he was being friendly, but calling a customer ā€œprimitoā€ (which means ā€œlittle cousinā€ in Spanish) felt condescending and disrespectful. I expect to be addressed with the same level of courtesy and respect that I extend to others, and I would have appreciated being referred to as ā€œsirā€ or ā€œgentleman,ā€ especially in a professional setting.

Aside from the issue with the service, the food itself was just okay—nothing exceptional or memorable. It wasn’t bad, but it didn’t stand out either.

Overall, I was disappointed not only by the mistake with my order which I understand can happen but more Importantly by the unprofessional tone used by the manager. I hope they take this feedback seriously and work on improving their customer service. It’s a shame because the restaurant has potential, but respect and professionalism should always be at the forefront especially from the manager.

Came into town for a few hours and wanted to get something quick to eat. I’m picky (I work in the restaurant industry) and I’m weird about ratings for places to eat. I found this restaurant and I got the vegetarian quesadilla. It was perfect and super fresh. The to-go specialist said I would be waiting 5 minutes and they were absolutely on time. This will be my go-to place whenever I come to visit. Thank you!

The food, atmosphere and service was great ?, they will take good care of you. I look forward to tasting the tiramisu. The manager is very nice and checks up to see if everything is good and that is a plus. Thank u.

Parking: Be careful when crossing the street to get to the restaurant.

We love Carajillo's. It's our favorite Mexican in town. This location is our favorite, as it's a bit smaller and cozy than the one in the south. Their freshly-made guacamole is a must.
