Just flat good. The heavily-life-experienced man behind the counter was a highlight. Best pricing in the area, and potential one of the best TexMex places

Hand hewn restaurant run by a wonderful guy, Mac. Originally started by his mom, who is rumored to have wonderful food. Upon her passing Mac has tried to revive the place. Emotionally he's been beaten yet again with the kiss of his brother , just weeks ago. Whether, Carmen's ever regain its glory days is yet to be seen. At this point food is mediocre at best. But we will keep checking in first on Mack , then on the food.

This was the strangest dining experience ever. The average rating didn't seem bad so I decided to try it. As we parked I noticed we were the only car parked in the lot. The place is run down and in need of renovations. As we walked inside we saw a hand painted menu on the wall. The prices were very affordable but there was not anyone around. Finally the owner approached us and was very friendly and personable. He informed us that Carmen passed away a couple years ago and he was trying his best to keep this place going. He was very proud of his chips and salsa bar and the nacho cheese and his homemade soup. My wife got the enchilada plate and I got the taco plate. My wife thought the place was creepy. The rice was over cooked and the tacos were not that good and the shell of one was slightly burned and the other shell was a store bought hard shell because he ran out of corn tortillas. We wanted to get out as quickly as possible but the owner talked with us for a while. He said that he doesn't get too many visitors. Most of the chat was interesting and good but then he started taking about how women in their 50s often visit trying to get him to marry them. He is in his 60s btw. Then he talked about his first kiss when he was 7 and how after the kiss the girl smiled and her teeth were rotted. Anyway, very strange. I wouldn't go for the food but you could go just to experience the weirdness of this place too.

Mack just keeping his mother and grandmother's recipes alive, real cooking from a hundred years ago. Authentic tasty and very home style. I was lucky enough to try Carmen's and will be back!!!

Amazing place. Just happened across it after fishing one day and glad I did! Great prices, very friendly ownership and staff. Definitely a hole in the wall, so don't expect fancy, but if you are looking for great food at a great price, this is your place!

Home made rice and beans and simple food plates. I appreciate everything about this place. From the owner’s hospitality to the simple self serve of chips, salsa, queso and drinks. It’s not your typical restaurant though…so if you are looking for wait staff, it’s not for you. What you will get is an honest owner keeping his momma’s place alive. Just walk through the door, go to the window with the menu over it and the owner will pop over to take your order. While you wait, go grab your chips, salsa and drinks and have a seat. It’s a great experience. I even had the pleasure of conversing with Mack and getting to know him better.

Aww, maan' this place is still top notch cooking. I came here to experience the memories I had as a child here. I miss seeing Carmen behind the counter. She was a very friendly lady and an amazing cook. May she never be forgotten. So please stop on by and get your fixing. Help them stay in business and open for many more years.
