    Food and service was amazing! Love this place, will 100% be back! The quesadilla was fantastic and the margaritas were amazing.

    A hidden gem in Osage Beach. Like, literally hidden because every window has a local advertisement…read morecovering it! I'd definitely driven by had I not done my research prior to coming on vacation. I am here to tell you that Pablito's Taqueria, though it lives in an unsuspecting strip mall, has something for everyone. Parking is a non-issue. Pricing is on point, and dare I say 'cheap' compared to other restaurants in the area? There's a lot of seating options and Pablito's can definitely accommodate any size of group. We stopped in on a rainy Thursday evening, having just gotten into town. The chips and salsa were pretty good-- the salsa was a bit tomato-heavy for my taste. Where as the guacamole was a phenomenal. I will definitely be trying the chunky guac the next time I am in town. Margs were on happy hour ($1 off) on Thursday evenings-- I thought mine was great! I ordered the green chili enchiladas with a cheese sauce as well as rice and beans. Other folks in my party ordered a burrito and tacos... we ALL left satisfied. (Though I will say, DANNNNG. Those refried beans have some kick to them!) This family-owed and operated biz is top notch in my book. Stop in!

    We love Pablitos but our visit on July 6th was very disappointing. The street tacos were so tough…read moreand stringy, they were inedible. My wife's taco salad consisted of about 3 tablespoons of some sort of dry ground meat and a little bit of lettuce. No cheese or tomatoes to be found. We asked for some cheese to add to the ground meat but never received. Not trying to be negative and we don't usually complain, but this trip to Pablitos was terrible.

We were in town for our annual family vacation with my in-laws and siblings, and Carmelita's is one of their favorite go-to spots. We went on a Tuesday evening around 6:30, and it was definitely busy, but we were able to get a table for 7 (1 child and 6 adults) within about 10-15 minutes, which was not a bad wait at all. The restaurant was very clean, and the service was quick and friendly. We started with the queso, which was so good I completely forgot to take a picture of it! My fiancé recommended that I try the Jiba Dinner, and I'm so glad I listened. It was surprisingly delicious, and I would absolutely order it again. I'm still not a huge fan of Mexican-style chicken, but the quality of the chicken was actually really good. I also appreciated that they were able to accommodate my gluten intolerance by swapping the flour tortillas for corn tortillas. I honestly can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm already looking forward to coming back to Carmelita's! It's definitely a new favorite for me.

I had the tropicana fajitas and had a couple bites of the jiba dinner. All were very delicious. Service was really quick. It felt very local and personal inside. It reminded me of small restaurants I like back home.

Fortunately we were able to find parking and only had to wait 15 minutes or so to get a table for 7 (nephews + BIL decided swimming outside was more important than dinner, so only 4 of us actually sat inside). The place was fairly loud and busy, but worse was that it was *warm* due to it being hot outside and people going in/out of the restaurant all the time. The service was actually pretty decent despite it being a mad house. My last stop in here a couple years ago included an amazing Buffalo Chicken Pizza. I was able to get my buffalo chicken pizza again this time, but it was a bit sad compared to last time...just okay. It was definitely a bit of a let down. Anyways, we went back outside after dinner and waited for the fireworks. I waited by the outside bar in the shade, but it was still a bit too warm for my liking. The fireworks were almost half an hour late, but we're pretty solid. Overall, it was a fine evening, but I can't help but think that there might be better options for getting a meal and catching fireworks. Captain Ron's might be better outside of a super busy holiday (it wasn't nearly as busy the last time I was in despite it being a weekend evening).

They also have a beach area which is great for families. They have a full bar but also have frozen drinks available. A great menu featuring burgers, seafood, and pizza. They have plenty of live events that happen at the bar as well. A fun atmosphere for all ages.
