“Carmelita’s Restaurant in Pharr is greatly recommended! The restaurant is very clean, waitstaff is very friendly and attentive to all your needs. The food is fresh and made to order! We ordered mixed botanas, which were generously served! The owner went above and beyond to help my husband and I plan my mother in laws 80th birthday celebration! This location closes at 3pm Monday through Saturday, however private celebrations can be planned for the evening. Sits about 65 people comfortably. Give them a call or visit the restaurant to plan your next amazing fiesta! They take care of everything! Just take your cake and any extras!”

“Noemi was amazing! She was fast and made sure the food was right before bringing it to the table. Tha Calzones are where its at. Friend Pickles and Ranch we so good. The medium wing sauce is phenomenal. Home cooked feel for much of the food. Comforting and Fun at the same time. Really liked the personal feel with no electronic pad at the table, it made the service feel more homey. Great place to have lunch or dinner before a movie. My husband and I will be back. 😊”

“Fui a "La Tortería" buscando una comida deliciosa y me encontré con una experiencia fantástica. La Torta de Fajita: ¡Un Placer! Pedí la Torta de Fajita y superó mis expectativas. El sabor de la carne es excelente, jugosa y bien sazonada. El pan estaba fresco y crujiente, y el tamaño de la torta es muy generoso, perfecto para quedar satisfecho. Realmente se nota la calidad en cada ingrediente. Servicio Inigualable Quiero hacer una mención especial a Emilio, quien nos atendió. Fue excepcional: muy atento, rápido y con una gran actitud. Hizo que nuestra visita fuera aún más placentera. ¡Un servicio de primera! En Resumen Si estás buscando una torta auténtica y sabrosa en un lugar donde te atiendan de maravilla, tienes que visitar La Tortería. ¡Definitivamente volveré por más!”

“Just had a fantastic dinner at Elite Cuisine in Pharr, and I'm already planning my next visit! My husband and I stopped by for dinner on May 26th, and we were thoroughly impressed. The restaurant offers a casual and clean environment with nice decor, making it a comfortable spot for a relaxed meal. The staff was incredibly attentive, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable dining experience from start to finish. For my main course, I ordered the fajita plate, which came with fresh French fries, rice, and beans. Not only was the food presentation very good, but the taste was even better. Everything was incredibly flavorful and satisfying. And the best part? The plate was a steal at just $14.95! Overall, our experience at Elite Cuisine was great. The combination of excellent food, attentive service, a pleasant atmosphere, and an unbeatable price makes it a definite must-try. I would definitely go back.”

“An excellent choice whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a full meal. It’s my wife’s favorite spot, and if our visit happens to fall on a Saturday, there’s no doubt this will be our go‑to place for lunch. Whether you choose a salad or a sandwich, you can’t go wrong—both are consistently great. Plus, the service specially that day was more than excellent, the guy at the counter, Carlos made our day. Without question, it’s one of our top stops whenever we visit Pharr, Texas.”
