This place is the best and most consistent Mexican food in town. I go all the time and have NEVER…read morebeen treated rudely in the slightest. And yes their salsa is spicy-ish, like it's supposed to be. Most folks have been eating boil in a bag pre made Mexican for so many years you don't remember what it's supposed to taste like. These folks are top notch and at a good price. Ignore the negative reviews. I've worked in food for years and the people who complain are typically rude themselves, or they say they didn't like what they ate out of personal preference and not based on the quality of the food. Keep up the good work Tequila and God's blessings to your success! My family loves y'all!

She was friendly, attentive, and quick with refills. The carne asada tacos were flavorful and not dry. The queso with chorizo was well-balanced and not too salty. We also tried the burrito monster with shredded pork, and it was surprisingly good and not soggy. The mango frozen margarita was just okay, a bit syrupy and didn't taste fresh. Overall, great food and service. I'd come back!

Well- gotta say- salsa was exceptional- chips were made in house - very crunchy- actually awesome; the guacamole is as good as the salsa The main course - good as the salsa- nothing else needs to be said One of the owners came over to visit and asked what we thought-- I told him I was gonna rate him on the Yelp scale of 1-5- - - He said what grade do we get? A 7 I said- and well deserved Told him next time we are back this way - we look forward to seeing him again Great place- great food and service and where your business is appreciated!!

Now, I am…read morefrom Arizona, which has the best Mexican food, so I wasn't exactly excited about eating this genre in Alexandria, Louisiana. Here goes... I wanted to play it safe so I ordered the carne asada. To my surprise, it wasn't horrible. Had good flavor and was cooked perfectly. It's served on a bed of grilled onions, which was weird but whatever. This dish also came with my choice of corn or flour tortillas. The rice and beans on the side tasted like they came strait from a can though, but who's there for the rice and beans anyway? Pro tip: save yourself a few bucks and just order the steak fajitas in lieu of the carne asada. The fajitas are served almost identically to the carne asada, except your meat is cut for you already. Both plates come served over grilled onions, both come with tortillas and also with rice/beans and toppings. EXACTLY THE SAME! Weird thing is, the carne asada is $2 more? Give Pedro's a shot, it won't be the best Mexican food you've ever had, but it won't be the worst either. One thumb and a high-five for Pedro's. Happy eating, my foodies!

I made…read morethe drive from my hotel room to Pedro's which was somewhat of an adventure because the GPS kept sending me to the wrong place. I ended up getting my fried ice cream to go $6.99. I commend the staff for being really nice and helpful. Everything was still intact and hadn't melted by the time I got back to my hotel room. The ice cream was still firm and the shell was still crispy. Before digging in I had to take some of the whipped cream off of it. A little bit too much sugar was sprinkled on the outside but overall this was really good. I may come back and visit this place again before I leave. I just know to ask them not to put any whipped cream and not as much sugar. The staff was friendly and very helpful.

Upon being seated, guests are presented with a simple yet genuinely authentic menu. The flavors remain consistently exceptional, a quality I believe is essential for any restaurant hoping to thrive in Alexandria. Caro's is far from the typical, run-of-the-mill Mexican restaurant where meals are hastily assembled from a hot line and served with an inflated price tag. Instead, each dish reflects care, authenticity, and craftsmanship. Complementing the cuisine, the staff and atmosphere provide an added layer of warmth and charm. The establishment also features a small shop offering imported goods, further enhancing the overall experience. I strive for honesty and objectivity in my reviews, and I rarely award a full five stars. However, Caro's is an exception. This assessment is not based on a handful of visits but on years of consistently outstanding dining experiences. If I were to choose a single word to describe Caro's, it would be authentic. This restaurant exemplifies what true, heartfelt Mexican cuisine should be.
