    Tacos
    Sonia H.

    New taco spot in Hendersonville, opened for a couple of weeks now! Food was good and came out quickly. Hubby had an asada (steak) burrito and I had 4 tacos (asada, carnitas, chorizo, barbacoa). They have a salsa bar where you can select and fill your own little cups. The menu includes pictures of each item. Seems to be set up mainly for to-go orders as the interior only has 4 tables. One high chair, but no changing station in the restroom. Easy to spot their yellow sign from the road and ample parking in a private lot shared with the other businesses in the small shopping strip. Minus one star as it was uncomfortably warm inside the restaurant and the tables needed to be cleaned. Food was tasty, so we'll give it another try sometime.

    Menu

    Finally stopped at Don Carbons . We did take out and got the camarones al mojo de ajo. It was FABULOUS ! Shrimp perfectly cooked in a delicious butter garlic sauce that was not spicy. ( I love spicy, hubby doesnt so the pickled carrots and radishes that come with it kicked it up enough for me...but even without heat, the dish has a nice flavor...and again, SHRIMP COOKED PERFECTLY !! ( Yes, I'm shouting! )... The refried beans also had a different taste than the rest of the Mexican places here. Don't know what was different but it was very nice. Now Im anxious to come back and try the rest of their menu.

    Carne Asada mmmmm

    This is the second location for Don Carbon Express in Middle Tennessee. What a great addition to Hendersonville. I've been eagerly anticipating the arrival of Don Carbon as there are a couple of great Taquerias in town but the lines are long (a good sign) so there's demand in town for another Taqueria. This is a walk up counter so no long lines of cards circling the building like at other places. Not a criticism, that's just how they operate. When you walk in there is a large empty space and a few tables on the wall which indicates that this is primarily a take out place. I opted to eat in. It's pretty warm inside the restaurant so it was a bit uncomfortable but it didn't' detract from the delicious food. There are a large variety of typical options such as tacos, burritos, quesadillas, etc. They have the typical meat options of carne asada, carnitas,chicken, beef tongue and a few others. You can add onion, jalapeno, cilantro, etc. as garnishes. Served in two soft corn tortillas I ordered tacos de carnitas with onion and no cilantro (vile weed!) and refried beans as a side. They only have canned soda and Jariotos fruit flavored soda in bottles. They also have some type of fountain fruit punch. No fountain drinks so if you need a refill it's going to cost 1/4 the total meal cost. They also have small bags of tortilla chips and a freshly prepared salsa bar with typical options. They Salsa Picante from peppers is fabulous and the Salsa Pincante de Tomatillo has a nice kick. Nice little touch with the salsa bar. My tacos were excellent. They were served with grilled onion and a grilled jalapeno which were very tasty. They were served with a few slices of radish and pickled carrot in true Taqueria style. The food was prepared quickly and my carnitas (crispy) were juicy and flavorful. The refried beans were pretty typical. The were served warm and the queso melted sufficiently to enhance the flavor. Overall, the service was excellent but the "dining room" does not lend itself to comfort. The food however was outstanding. This will definitely be a "comebacker" for me. Thoroughly enjoyed it'd

    I'm addicted to the street tacos ($2.00) at Don Carbon. I eat here at least once a week.

Either the internet is out OR they don't even go by the online waitlist. Crammed lobby area, so you can't wait your 45 minutes in comfort. Today, they couldn't text you that your table is ready. So you have to wait by the counter to hear your name be called.

I've been here twice, and it's in a convenient spot with plenty of free parking nearby. Most recently, my husband and I stopped by for an early breakfast, and we had a quick and tasty meal! When I do dine at a First Watch, I usually aim to try something new since they have such a large menu. Their seasonal menu actually rotates every 6 weeks or so, and there's always something fun and fresh to try from their special selections. This time, I stuck to the healthier side of the menu, and went with the Tri-Athlete egg white omelette. This was light and very veggie-forward, which is just what I wanted for such an early meal. My husband ordered the Farmhouse Hash, which is a must-try for anyone who loves breakfast potatoes. Their multigrain toast is full of flavor, and one of my favorite things to dip in eggs or jam (or both!) I also love the AM Superfoods Bowl, although we didn't order that this time around. Our server was fast and friendly, and made sure we had plenty of coffee on hand throughout our meal. We'd definitely return to this location the next time we're in the area!!

I'm a big guy and the booth table was a tight fit for me, however there were no open tables with chairs. We decided to not let tat ruin our experience. My wife ordered the 8 oz. prime rib, I ordered the rib eye and our friend ordered the 8oz. filet. None of us had ANY complaints about the quality nor quantity of our meals. As a matter of fact, I will say that this is the BEST rib eye I can recall having eaten. Our server, Abbey, was right on top of our needs before we knew we needed her. The restaurant was clean and inviting and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Kudos Chop House, we will be back!

I'll definitely be coming back soon, and I'll try to take more pictures of the food next time. The place was also nice and clean.
