“I love the food but I wish they put their actual hours. I've gone 3 times in the middle of the day and they've been closed every single time, online it says 5am-7pm, this is not true, they close at 2pm. Unfortunately for me I didn't know this and their hours in real life are in Spanish and the hours on Google are incorrect. Would love to eat here more often it sucks theyre closed that early.“

“Context: Road trip for caverns
Grabbed lunch here on the way out of town.
Read “it is always good and always quick.”
That was our experience.
Ordered a cheeseburger and barbacoa tacos.
Perfect burger
Perfect tacos
Unpretentious and tasty at a great price!
What more can you ask for?
Would recommend if you want to get a great lunch in a laid back restaurant l.“

“Our first time today. We had a super lunch. Started out with the tea being fresh. Salsa and chips were tasty, not too spicy, shrimp tacos, perfectly balanced with a nice slaw and avacado. Pork asado extremely flavorful yet not too hot! Will definitely go back again!“

“Delicious aguachiles plate and La Diabla bow tie pasta with a mix of baby octopus and more! Everything was so good!“
“We loved the Cavern but this is a review of the gift shop. We bought 5 t shirts and I wear a XXL normally with no issue. The XXL we got from here was more like a Large. The shirts run extremely small. This was not the only one that ran this small. I would try them on before buying. We are so disappointed since 3 shirts don’t fit at all. Had to give them to our son.
Edit: The gift shop did contact me regarding the shirt sizes and did what they could to make the situation right.“

“We really enjoyed our food and our time at Lucy's! Everyone was friendly and welcoming. Lucy herself even came by to say hi! The food really hit the spot after a long day!
Great local place to check out as we were visiting Carlsbad...just as it was 25 years ago when we went through Carlsbad the first time!
It is easy to see why they take pride in their margaritas!“
“I usually get tacos here for lunch. My wife and I love them because they are not greasy. Made to order while you wait for them. Of course the shell is pre-made, as are the rest of the ingredients which make for a fast turnaround time. This time I went to get nopales and corn chips. I ended up skipping the nopales because they were old and had dark spots on them. So I only got the chips.“

“I'd never eaten here before, but my mom was in the mood for a burger (I'm ALWAYS in the mood for a burger). The menu was easy to read and understand. I can't believe they have Tostadas as a side! 👀
We ordered our food and drinks, one of them being the sampler, which comes w/ onion rings, fried mushrooms, fried pickles, and mozz sticks, and jalapeño poppers. The friendly gentleman who took our order came out to the car to tell us they were out of onion rings, but would sub w/whatever else we wanted. I opted for more mushrooms. 😋 The drinks are perfectly mixed, everything came exactly as ordered, and the food was delicious.
Will DEFINITELY be coming back for more.“

“Taco Bell is always great however with this experience my daughter and I had ordered some cinnamon twist and they tasted as if the oil had been sitting there for months and months and months and months and months and it was just awful we had to return the items and luckily we went to the other Taco Bell to get cinnamon twists and they were just fine“

“A Hidden Gem in Carlsbad!
If you're looking for incredible Mexican food in Carlsbad, look no further than Maria's Mexican Food food truck! This charming little spot serves up some of the best burritos, tortas, and gorditas I've ever had.
The burritos are packed with flavor and generously filled, making for a satisfying meal that hits the spot every time. The tortas are equally impressive, with fresh ingredients and a perfect crunch that keeps me coming back for more. And let's not forget the gorditas--their unique texture and taste are simply irresistible!
The outside eating area is a delightful bonus! It's beautifully decorated with twinkling lights that create a cozy atmosphere, making it a great place to enjoy your meal. The plastic walls provide a perfect shield from the wind and cold, so you can dine comfortably no matter the weather.
What really sets Maria's apart is the warmth and dedication of Maria herself. She is such a sweet and hardworking person, always greeting customers with a smile and making sure each dish is made with love. It's clear that she puts her heart into every meal, and it shows!
If you find yourself in Carlsbad, do yourself a favor and stop by Maria's Mexican Food. You won't regret it!“
