This is a new restaurant and it’s absolutely beautiful but some issues need some serious attention.
I was pleasantly surprised that they give you tortilla chips with salsa for free but the basket I received was inedible. They were extremely greasy and some were unchewable. I don’t know if they were the bottom of the barrel but they weren’t good.
I ordered a margarita which came in a boring glass and was fine enough. Nothing special. However, I later ordered a rum pina colada that was supposed to come over Pebble ice in a martini shaped glass with dehydrated pineapple and a torched maraschino cherry. What I received was a frozen pina colada in a different type of glass with absolutely no flavor, and orange slice and maraschino cherry juice on top. For the cost of these cocktails, they really need to step it up.
I ordered the tacos. Three of them which included a fajita taco. The menu stated that it came with peppers and onions and so I added chicken to it. What are received was chicken with chopped up raw onion and cheese on top. I asked both the bartender and the manager about the peppers and onions and they said that it doesn’t come with it but then I showed them the menu and they both agreed that it’s supposed to so I waited for peppers and onions to come out. As for the tacos themselves, the meat was dry in both the steak and chicken tacos. The shrimp one was good but I didn’t taste any garlic like it said it was supposed to have.
The main reason I came there was for karaoke which they advertise on Friday nights. On this occasion, they were having some parties so the manager said that karaoke would be at 11:00 p.m instead of 7:30. So, my girlfriend and I came back at 10:50 p.m. we waited until 11:20 p.m. and there was still no karaoke and we left.
Not a big deal but overall, it’s about the food in the cocktails when it comes down to it. They need more focus on this.

The food was amazing honestly was expecting it to be worse then the food truck but it ended up being so much better. I went on a Monday it was a walk in the service was again and the food was truly the best Mexican food I’ve had in Florida. Will definitely be going again. The birria oil was honestly out of this world.

A must-visit in West Palm Beach — Tacos al Carbón!
If you’re in West Palm Beach and looking for amazing food, incredible cocktails, and a place that truly makes you feel at home, Tacos al Carbón is the spot. The cocktails are outstanding—honestly some of the best in the area—and the food is absolutely delicious. What really sets this place apart is the customer service. Xavier took great care of us: friendly, attentive, and welcoming, making us feel like family from the moment we arrived. The atmosphere is warm, fun, and perfect for hanging out with friends or family. Once you come, you’ll definitely want to come back. Highly recommended!

This is how my dinner was delivered versus what was requested. Please consider ordering food from here only if you want to order from a business that doesn’t care about their customer’s requests, especially those with food allergies. You can be certain if they are this concerned with following directions or requests by the public, then they obviously will pay as little attention to other details concerning public health, like cleanliness or safety. i will not order from here ever again.

The atmosphere was electric and was a lot of fun fun, the customer service was ok they tried. The burritos were so disappointing. They honestly made me two chicken wraps. The chicken taste and had the texture of canned chicken. Kinda sad.

Tacos – Pollo I ordered checken tacos I received 1 should have been 2 cold chicken taco with NO cheese on top just tomatoes and the chicken was so cold and hard I couldn’t bite it. Tacos – Barbacoa Tacos – received 1 cold should have been 2 with no cheese on top and just lettuce and tomato.Chip and Salsa the salsa was so cold it had ice chips in it which lets me know it’s old. This entire thing was disgusting. Do NOT go here unless you want to waste your money.

The 2 stars are for the front end staff who are awesome always. I usually go to the location in Lake Worth but ocassionally pop in the palm beach lakes location. Until today the food, portion, taste & price . Ordered my usual and dissapointed in the changes is an understatement. Fajitas combinadas is my vice, with the fresh salad, well grilled veggies. Needless to say was unaware of the so called new changes. Veggies practically raw, no more salad, and bland. I’m all for change but when something is already good no need to mess with it

Absolutely love what the new management team has done to the place. Food and quality of service is amazing. Check out their strawberry margarita and taco lunch special. Worth it every time.

Horrible service, bland food, and long wait time. I never write reviews at all but I will say it is a very nice setup. Me and 3 others were seated quickly but the wait time to order even drinks or appetizers took over 20 mins and multiple other parties arrived within those 20 minutes that were bigger and were served everything before us. I would’ve understood if it was busy but at the time but there was nobody at the restaurant when we got there. Once we ordered it took another 25-30 minutes just for our drinks to come and chips and salsa. 40 minutes after that everybody who came in after us had already left and paid and we were just getting our appetizers. The food was bland and not up to my standards especially after eating in this restaurant a very long time. The waiters name is Rafaela and she was very unattentive to our table and rather be on her phone then doing her actual job. She also made it seem like we were asking her a huge favor when we asked for some of our sides that were already ordered but never came to the table. They also automatically charged us tip in the bill and 20% as well which in my opinion wasn’t up my standards to even pay a tip at all due to her poor service and lack of attentiveness. I will never come here again, very disappointed. It was also very expensive for bland food will provide a picture of my receipt for proof.

Had high hopes for this location since it looked pretty nice. I had a party of four and we came in while only two other patrons were there. A few other patrons came and they were actually attended to first with placing orders and drinks. We placed our orders after 10 minutes then waited… Chips & salsa were brought out after another 5 minutes. The “fresh” chips were mainly stale. Drinks came out 15 minutes later. One of the groups that came in after us was given access to their tv and was screen sharing their instagram, camera roll and other things in front of everyone. They were then served for their party of 6 all of their food and sides. One of the men from that group was going around trying to connect his phone again to different TVs in the restaurant. Another group was also served before us. Almost 40 minutes had passed before we were served our meals. On top of the wait, the food was extremely flavorless and things were forgotten. There was also no sauce, no napkins, just the singular napkin you get with utensils. Then after boxes were given out it took another 15 minutes until we could pay to leave. Mind you, as I’ve said, it was hardly busy only two other tables besides us. Not only do they have very slow, lacking service and subpar food, they also will charge you 20% gratuity even if it’s just one person. Probably because they know it sucks so they have to squeeze more money out of you somehow. $20-30 dollar per person for $4.50/e tacos is ridiculous. If I could give it 0 stars I would! We will never be back.
