Stopped in on Valentines night around 7:30pm & surprisingly quickly seated.
Chips & Salsa always FIRE! Chips are always warme & fresh and crispy. It’s the thin ones that can only hold salsa cause anything heavier they’ll break.
Had queso & App Mixto, we were meeting for drinks before a show. Very delicious and well plated. I love the fried queso Panela!
Cristal the server was very friendly and accommodating when we requested to move from table by kitchen, didn’t realize how warm it’d be. She politely said yes, we asked to stay in her section.
Ordered a round of margaritas with tajin. Margaritas are perfect! Not too crazy like Tia Maria’s but tasty and just right where 2 is enough.
Karaoke was a good vibe! Great dinner will definitely return.

⭐️⭐️ 2/5 – Not what it used to be
I’ve been coming to Don Carlos since around 2016, and unfortunately, it’s just not the same anymore. The food is alright, but there’s definitely room for improvement.
When I order guacamole, I expect guacamole — not a pile of lettuce underneath. I get that they’re aiming for a nice presentation, but when presentation overshadows the actual dish, it misses the point.
We ordered the parrillada, and while the portion was decent, the chicken was dry, the beef poorly cut, and the flavors just weren’t there. The charro beans were heavily seasoned to the point where all I could taste were cloves and cumin instead of enjoying the beans themselves.
The flour tortillas are homemade, which I appreciate, but they’re too thick and get hard pretty quickly.
To be fair, I’ll say this — the chips and salsa were excellent, the rice was flavorful, and the customer service was great. I really wish the food had matched that same level of quality.

Absolute BANGER!!! I had some Migitas con carnitas and good lord!!! The best breakfast I’ve ever had. The place has an absolute vibe to it. The decorations are genuinely beautiful and the waitress was so lovely. Their food were great and tortillas de harina tasted homemade and were tasty. I couldn’t recommend it more.

I came alone after an exhausting 13 hr shift. I ordered what I really needed to detox from my day= fajita nachos and a specialty beverage. For almost 30$ the nachos had good presentation but could have had more fajitas. The blackberry mojito was what the nurse ordered! Delicious! So the service… SMH. I was basically ignored. I was alone and in all black- my work scrubs- so what! I looked unimportant? I will assume. Had to get the host to get my second drink a house rita- no complaints and just 7$. But for the price I expect some acknowledgement. Y’all decide . And I refused to order my son to go food as promised….y final

Went for my son’s birthday and ordered a torta with only mayo and beef fajita, sorry but that’s how I eat mine. Waiter came it had cheese, which is the one I had ordered to go, so he took it back waited 15 minutes for torta while my fries were actually already delivered so I ate those. Torta comes has cheese on it again so I just tell waiter that it’s ok and just to bring me some mayo. He leaves never comes back with mayo. So I asked waitress for a to go box and just brought it home to eat here. Ridiculous
