    Taco de Oro really said "No substitutions, no hydration, no peace." If you want to swap rice and beans for veggies like any other normal Mexican restaurant? Better pray you get the young guy with the gentle soul or the brown-haired waitress with the accent--because anyone else will look at you like you just asked for a gluten-free enchilada in 1992. Water refills? That's cute. Hope you like your salsa spicy and your lips chapped, because you'll be thirstier than a cactus in July. I watched my water glass dry out like a time-lapse of the Mojave Desert. And the check? Oh, sweet summer child. You don't get the check. You earn it--by surviving a silent, awkward standoff where you try to make eye contact with a server who's sprinting past you like you owe them money. The food? Pretty good. The trauma? Immaculate. Five stars for chaos. One star for service. May God be with you. If you want good Tex Mex, go to La viva, Tavos or La Maria. This place is for the birds, at least their service is.

    Strawberry mango margarita with birria quesatacos
    Sia A.

    It doesn't look like much from the outside, but trust me when you go inside and order..... the food is freaking amazing! It's a cute mom and pop shop where the service is great and attentive. Margaritas are super tasty - i had a small mango strawberry with salt rim. Try it! Birria is my favorite so I tried their birria quesatacos and let me just tell you... it's hot, warm, fresh, and everything about it makes you want to come back and try more.

    Nachos - chicken and beef
    Joanna S.

    We found this spot on Yelp and decided to come here based on the reviews. Walked in and immediately assisted and was sat down by our server. She was so nice and friendly. The customer service here, AMAZING! 5 stars. The water and free complimentary chips and salsa was definitely filled at all times. When we got the menu, we were served with the free salsa and chips immediately. We looked a the menu and the prices were definitely on the high side. We ordered a full order of beef and chicken nachos and 2 birria tacos. Giving this place 2 stars because the nachos.... were horrible. We couldn't even finish them. The beans were flavorless and the beef and chicken - DRY. my birria tacos were good but the roast was DRY. the flavor of the dipping sauce was definitely there but DRY meat. We won't be coming back here again. Great customer service though (a bit slow to get our food - waited about 25 minutes with maybe 2 other customers in the restaurant and our food was not hot).

    Tijuana Style Birria QuesaTacos
    Germanie J.

    Tijuana Style Birria QuesaTacos for the WIN!!!!!!! I placed my order through Yelp's grubhub feature. Upon arrival I called the number listed in front of the restaurant to let them know I was here for pick up. Janette came outside right away and delivered my order. :-) I couldn't wait to get home and try it! I ordered Tijuana Style Birria QuesaTacos and I was not disappointed! Tacos were packed with meat, cheese, cilantro and onions. The tortillas were crisp but not too hard. The consome broth was my favorite part!!!!!!!!! I literally wanted to just drink it straight from the cup lol. Just forget about the dipping and sip it from a straw lol. It was so flavorful, not too spicy, filled with little chunks of meat, onions and cilantro. They also gave me a side of spicy salsa that I added to my tacos.... it's super spicy and I enjoyed every bit of it. Hands down it was thebomb.com I WILL be a returning customer.. Thanks again Janette! :-)

    Bacon, potato, bean and cheese burrito Breakfast Burrito (10" Homemade Flour Tortilla)
    David L.

    I ordered a breakfast burrito and the bacon, egg, and potato was really good. The problem though is the tortilla itself. It's entirely too thin and breaks apart on you. I ended up eating it with a fork which kinda defeats the purpose of ordering a burrito. Hopefully they can change that. Other than that, no complaints about the food.

    First time visit to this small and excellent restaurant…read more Located at the corner of Fry Road and Mound Road it has a restaurant seating area of about 50 and a large bar area for 20 more. The menu is short but includes most of the classics. I had the Seafood Tacos and my wife had the Chicken Mole Enchilada. The tacos were surrounded by a flour tortilla (corn is also available) with fish that can be grilled or steamed. Packed with flavor from the onions, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and more I enjoyed every last bite. The plate included rice, beans, and sliced red onion. Delicious My wife loved her selection as well. The serving was big enough to take home what was not consumed allowing her an extra day to enjoy the mole. We also ordered a side of guacamole which was served as a huge rounded scoop on a plank. Don't get me started on the chips we used to eat every last bit of the guacamole. When we told our waiter, Jose, how much we liked the chips he gave us a bag to take home! I had some today and they were still crunchy with a hint of salt. Now to drinks: my wife had the house Pinot Grigio and I the house margarita which I ordered frozen with no salt. The margarita had a clear lime note but did not suffer from it. All in all we agreed that Carmelita's deserves a return visit next time Mexican food is our choice.

If the service was good, it would've been a 5 star. It started well but she lost interest in us. Took almost 20mins and we had to get up to reminder her that we still needed the check.

Fajitas and parrilladas, molcajetes, enchies, ceviches, caldos... they serve an array of Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine. Staff is always friendly and energetic--it's def a neighborhood restaurant! And they have a drive thru. I believe they do tequila tastings/tequila dinners. I've only had a few margaritas there, and unfortch haven't really liked 'em (a lil too sweet, even the skinny marg). Though, my fam loves their margs.

    Shocker -- they make EVERYTHING here, including the desserts we selected from their bakery section…read moreand thought were really good!!! Given all the shortcuts that so many restaurants take, this place deserves a "5" just for the fact that they do make everything themselves. And our meal was really excellent as well and a very fair price. We started with a Cheese quesadilla and our special request to have onions in there as well. It was good. For brunch we ordered the $12 Concha French Toast because Mr. Picky has a sweet tooth. That is Concha bread soaked in vanilla bean custard, topped with caramel, toasted coconut, cinnamon, whipped cream and berries. Mr. Picky didn't even need the side syrup. I like savory items and I so ordered the El Valle which was also $12. Two cheese enchiladas which I topped with sunny side up eggs, served with white rice and refried black beans. I added seasoned ground beef into the enchiladas and that was an extra $2. I requested white cheese enchiladas, don't know if that was standard or not. I am not a huge bean lover, but I have to tell you that the refried black beans on that plate were delicious. Very filling dish, tasted really good and it was a great value. Brunch is served Saturday & Sunday from 9am-3pm. I think this is the best breakfast/brunch I've had in the past two years. Generous amount of food and I couldn't finish it all. They have a bakery section and we walked over to look and see what we wanted to have for dessert. We couldn't decide between the interesting-looking carrot cake, the praline cheesecake or flan on top of chocolate cake. So we ordered and shared all three! LOL. Our favorites were the carrot cake and the praline cheesecake. I think this is the best breakfast/brunch we've had in the past two years. Generous amount of food and I couldn't finish it all. Five stars for making everything themselves, waiter Eduardo was very helpful, and we're definitely coming back soon!!!

    "My Homework Turned Into Date Night (with Myself)" 02-14-26…read more I came here on Valentine's Day to do a writing assignment my professor gave us, and I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere and the food all the same. When I walked in, the hostess offered to seat me in the private party area. I declined and told her, "I'm here for a writing assignment," and asked if I could sit somewhere with a clear view of the bar. She didn't hesitate. She told me to follow her and led me to a booth with a clean, perfect shot of the bar, front row without having to climb onto a stool. She handed me a menu and told me to enjoy my evening. The bar itself was shaped like an oblong oval ring with gold seats lined up like little lifeboats, almost like a ship's bridge. Above it, about ten flat screens hovered in an oval formation, suspended in the air. Upside-down margarita glasses and champagne flutes hung overhead like delicate chandeliers in an expensive mansion. The bar area was filled with couples and solo diners enjoying the screens, sipping margaritas and champagne, and crunching on complimentary chips and salsa. Customer service was fantastic. My server, Ale, was highly energetic, lively, knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. I felt very well taken care of during this dining experience, which was supposed to just be a writing assignment, but it turned into a rewarding little night out. The complimentary chips and salsa were also pretty good. The atmosphere was vibrating at a high-energy level. There was loud laughter and conversation all around, the sound of dishes clanging in the kitchen, servers moving back and forth, and bussers scanning the room for abandoned tables to clean. For my appetizer, I ordered the shrimp crab cake along with a Cucumber Melon Margarita on the rocks. Both were absolutely delicious. The crab cake was mouthwatering and delectable, and that margarita was refreshingly fruity and strong, so good I ordered a second one. For my entrée, I ordered the beef fajita plate for one with cilantro rice, charro beans, and corn tortillas. I also added a side of the La Viva Shrimp (bacon-wrapped). I don't eat pork often, so I peeled the bacon off, and even without it, the shrimp was exceptionally tantalizing, full of bold seafood flavor. My entire plate was the bee's knees. I can't even explain how good the food was. Food Ratings Shrimp Crab Cake: 5/5 La Viva Shrimp: 5/5 Beef Fajitas: 5/5 Cilantro Rice: 5/5 Charro Beans: 5/5 Overall, La Viva Cantina is an upbeat, lively spot serving delicious comida with great customer service and an inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend it for date night, or even a solo night at the bar. You won't be disappointed.

The staff was attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience feel welcoming. That level of service is honestly the main reason I would come back. Price wise, it felt a little high for what you get. I cannot say it was much better than something like Chipotle, even though it was about double the price. That said, the environment makes a difference. The restaurant has a fun, lively vibe, and it looks like they have great drinks and margaritas, even though I did not try any this time. Overall, I would recommend coming here for the atmosphere and excellent service. The food is solid and dependable, just not top tier Mexican cuisine. I would give it another try mainly because of how well we were treated.
