Carmelita's Fair Oaks

We arrived 15 minutes late because of a road closure, but upon entering the restaurant, we informed them of our delay. They reassured us that it was no problem and promptly seated us at a lovely table. Our server was incredibly classy; I wish I knew his name so I could recommend him! He provided such excellent service that I felt like giving him a hug! The food was delightful, and the drinks were equally enjoyable. We've been there before, and we'll definitely be returning again and again. — Gwen Aquinto

My husband ordered two tacos and an enchilada, and both of his tacos were burned, as was the taco I ordered. While we understand that restaurants can have off nights, there were just too many issues this time. The previous menu offered a wide variety of options, especially seafood. We’re not sure what the new management is thinking, but you've lost some loyal customers after all these years.

Delicious dinner and great margaritas! I will definitely recommend it to my friends.

The food and drink were fabulous. The food was fresh and flavorful with ample portions. The margaritas were very good. This is a neighborhood gem and we will return.

We've been going here for sometime. The staff are always so incredibly friendly and helpful...makes one feel as if they are [art of the family. The outside patio has an incredible ambiance. They have a variety of different food and not your typical tacos and enchiladas. If there is a drawback it would be their tortilla chips. That is a minor issue as who goes to a good restaurant for the chips.
