Reviews
I sat inside and it was a relaxed atmosphere for a Saturday afternoon after 1pm. They had a Brunch menu that is on Saturday and Sunday until 2pm. I opted for the Breakfast burrito with sausage. It came with a small side salad that included Guacamole and Sour cream, it was a nice change to have that salad and was quite flavorful.
My server was great. Very polite and he came by to check on me. The food came out quick and I enjoyed it very much, not a huge burrito but just right in size and flavor.
I thought the prices were good especially for Carmel area. They have a huge outside patio and plenty of parking in a large shopping area.
I heard some kids so it’s kid friendly and a very clean place to eat. Many items on the menu and I would recommend it for great food and service.
Would definitely go back. I cannot recommend anything particular. We had different dishes and everything was great.
Love the vibe, with all the memorabilia around.
It’s a bit off the beaten path for anyone hanging around Monterey or Carmel, but it’s worth the trip. Can’t recommend highly enough.
Also the Oaxaca old fashioned was awesome, and the Ultimate margarita came in a pint glass. Enough said, make sure you have a DD
The menu states that some enchilada dishes do not have Jack cheese. We asked the server to confirm and they kindly double checked, which I very much appreciated at the time. We were told that although typically the dish comes with Jack cheese, they could make it with only aged cheese (like cheddar, as the menu says anyways) upon request. I thanked the server for checking and stated that I have a tough time digesting some (higher lactose) cheeses and I appreciated it.
The food comes out and the server puts the enchiladas in front of me. The food looked pretty decent but I was told that the kitchen was unable to make it without jack cheese. There also appeared to be some crumbled cotija cheese or similar (which was not mentioned at any time). I told the server again that I didn’t want to eat it because the cheese didn’t agree with me. My wife restated that it would cause me digestion problems if I ate it. The server asked me what I wanted to do, and left the food at the table although I made it clear that I had no intention of eating it. I found this to be rude and the server’s tone was unapologetic.
I asked for a salad and waited while my partner watched their food get cold. I felt terrible and embarrassed.
When the salad came out it was okay. I found a walnut in the salad which is a foreign contaminate, presumably from some other dish. I don’t happen to be allergic to nuts but I know that is a matter of life or death for some.
There was no adjustment to the bill despite the menu being wrong about common allergen ingredients for 2 dishes and we were given wrong information about the food as well.
Overpriced, marginal service, inconsistencies about ingredients. Cannot recommend.
