    The food was excellent. Especially the black bean and corn dip! It's to die for! We bought a quart…read moreto bring home. The Chicken taco was the best I've ever had! The shell of the taco was so crisp yet light. Good Magaritas too! My husband's Carnitas burrito was so flavorful. The servers were very nice and very attentive. The inside of the restaurant had tasteful decor. Leather and bent wood chairs, lofty ceiling with open beams. Attractive paintings and porcelain pieces hung on the walls. Very Mediterranean ambiance. There is outside seating but it was too hot for that, inside was pleasantly cool.

    As vegetarians, my family usually struggles to find decent offerings at Mexican restaurants,…read moreusually settling for bland bean-and-rice burritos, cheese enchiladas that clearly were made haphazardly (if not out-right cooked from the freezer), or calorie-bombed nachos. This is not the case at Dos Carlitos in Santa Ines! Yes, my kids split the order of nachos, but the ratio of black beans, tomatoes, and guacamole to cheese made this mother happy. The vegetable tostada was loaded with grilled vegetables and the freshly-made tortillas were incredible! Finally, the cheese enchiladas (we're creatures of habit) were freshly cooked, with more of those in-house tortillas, and they were, according to my husband, some of the most delicious that he's had in a long time. Service was courteous and prompt, and we were greeted by the host in a very pleasant manner. I have to give a shout-out to our busboy, who was fantastic, ready with water or chip refills before we even thought to ask (whatever his name was, he was working Thursday, July 23 at noon). In short, Dos Carlitos is a first-rate Mexican restaurant! We love how it is not loud or overfilled with patrons. One might balk at some of the high prices, but in general I have to say it was overall worth it!

We've been through Frazier Park many times on the way to hikes, but I guess I had never ventured up any side roads to the actual 'downtown'. Upon entering, you think the place is small, but it keeps extending into a sizable dining room and there appears to be a back room that you can use for events. The staff was pleasant, the place was clean and organized, but there was almost zero ambience with only the slightest hint of a radio playing in the kitchen, but my friend said they closed at four on Sundays, so maybe it was the end of the day when we were there, but it was literally dead quiet. I could tell from the picture on the menu that they didn't make their own taco shells and were the pre-formed kind. All the food was hot and freshly made, and plated decently, but every bit of it was fairly bland and flavorless; definitely not traditional Mexican food.

She knows many by name and she also made a special button on her ordering POS machine for her loyal customers that have been eating here for years. That is a valid 5/5 star rating! The amount of proportionate food is over the top, you can literally share one meal itself. The guacamole is perfect and the chips and salsa are so delicious, it's hard to stop. The ambience has such a beautiful touch to the Hispanic culture as well as the architecture . Swing by

I tried the enchiladas with steak and it was delicious. It comes with three but it's not much. The beans and rice was 5/5 as well. They don't give you a big portion, which is good but just enough food. The salsa and chips are good as well. It's very quaint Inside but cute and cozy. I will try here again in Solvang.

It's easy to get distracted walking in a touristy area, so you'll miss it if not paying attention! The restaurant itself is small, but there's indoor seating and a few tables outside. Luckily on our visit the restaurant wasn't too busy. I decided to order chicken enchiladas. The prices here are very reasonable for what you get. The enchiladas were delicious! My son ordered the cheese pupusas, which I was able to try and they were perfect. I would definitely order those myself. My cousins enjoyed their meals as well. Our food was prepared and served in a timely manner. I was surprised how fast we were served, yet the food was satisfactory. Overall, a great little spot to satisfy your Mexican food needs. Especially if you're wanting a comfort meal after all the pastries you've eaten ha!

    Los Agaves On De Lavina St. -- A Rare Review from Someone Who Hates Writing Reviews…read moreI spent 25 years owning a business. I know what good service looks like, and I know what entitled looks like. I never write reviews -- I watched Yelp destroy good people over bad nights, and I swore I'd stay out of it. Tonight changed that. I sat at the bar. It took the bartender over five minutes to acknowledge I existed. Another five to ten to deliver a Coke. I ordered dinner and waited forty minutes -- which I might have forgiven, except getting his attention was nearly impossible the entire night. No eye contact. Body language that made clear I was an inconvenience, not a guest. Every interaction felt like I was interrupting something more important. When I finally got him to check on my order, he went to the computer and discovered he'd never placed it. I walked out. I noticed the people around me weren't faring much better. The slowness wasn't just my experience -- it was the room. Los Agaves appears to be a popular place, and maybe on another night with another bartender it earns that reputation. But entitlement has a way of spreading when nobody checks it. I hope management is paying attention -- because a beautiful restaurant dies one invisible guest at a time.

From most to least impressed: + Lengua taco: This was done really, really well. Lengua can be a hit or a miss sometimes, as it's easy to make it tough to chew, but this was extremely tender and I could've ordered an entire plate of just this. + Quesabirra taco: Really flavorful. The birria was great and pairs well with consume. + Asada taco: I would skip this one because the meat was on the tougher end for me. But the other two tacos win me over. Reasonably priced and the meal came with chips and salsa. Also clean seating and bathrooms with ample parking in the lot. Make this your pit stop if you're ever in this side of town!

We ordered chips and salsa but then learned they were out of salsa and would be making more. They did have the tacos and quesadilla we ordered and they were delicious. Our server checked in to see if we needed anything else and we said we were waiting on the chips and salsa. She updated us that they were actually out of the ingredients for the salsa so those wouldn't be coming. I'm glad I checked the stall in the bathroom as one was out of toilet paper. I worry they might not have the cash flow they need if they have such a lean inventory.
