    The wait staff was great. Very attentive. The food was average at best. The entry was basic and the black beans were under done and flavorless.

    Love going to Carlos, service is good and the drink specials are even better! I really like the Navajo Taco, pictured below. You can get corn or flour chips and there's super hot salsa you can get for your chips. And the queso is fantastic!

    I really miss the BBQ chicken tacos, but their cilantro lime rice is always on point. Salsa is merely meh, however the queso with seasoned me is da 💣!

    Fajita meat was tough. Alot of fat on the meat. Tortillas were cold. Chimichanga was ok. Cheese sauce was cold. We got the food to go. We live about 3 mins away. We were inside waiting for the food to be done do everything should have been hot. Anchor Inn was closed otherwise we would have gone there.

    The food wasn't at all what it used to be. The hostess barely spoke and seated us at a table with crumbs all over it. The food was just gross. My mother and I both ordered the Enchiladas de Pablano with rice and refried beans. Got two tiny dried up enchiladas with what tasted like unseasoned, canned chicken inside and barely a puddle of the creamy pablano sauce underneath, a small spoonful of refried beans, and a little bit if rice. The enchiladas were practically inedible but we were so hungry we did the best we could. There was more than half the food left on each of our plates and we left still hungry, just not hungry enough to eat any more of the food there. The service from our waitress was outstanding and is the only reason there are any stars at all.

    First, Carlos isn't my go to restaurant by any means. I'm not a fan of their food. I think its bland. We went their with friends and they chose. However, the place is nice. Nice atmosphere and friendly fast service. Our waitress checked on us multiple times and was very friendly. There was an issue with one of our plates and I addressed it with the hostess that came over and helped serve our large group. She was very friendly and fixed the issue right away. If the food was good I would've given it 5 stars.

    Just ate there and we had the worst service ever. Food was good but the waitress was the worst. She checked on us twice. We had to go up to the bar to get more chips. Then she came to give us the check. No checking on us in between.

    Tried the new pizzas. They were excellent! Food is always good. Our waiter was not so great but normally we have very good service.

    I have never eaten such bad Tex-mex food in my life. I had the pork street tacos, refried beans & rice. I ate 1 Taco which was burnt on one side & raw on the other & 3 bites of the refried beans. Those were the worst beans ever. A child could make better. Now I am back at the place I am staying & can't stay out of the bathroom I am so sick. No one at the table enjoyed thier food. I payed almost $70 dollars for 4 people & now it is down the pipes or leftovers in the trash. I am here on vacation from Texas & know what real Tex-Mex should be.

    I came here for a catch up with a friend after church. Our server was training someone. They were both super friendly and the "experienced" server was knowledgeable about the menu. My food was delicious and we had enough help, but enough privacy, too! The food didn't take long. MAKE SURE TO ORDER THE FLOUR TORTILLA CHIPS and QUESO! It's muy yummyo! (or possibly mucho yummo...)

    Not from the area, so first time. It was your standard TexMex restaurant. I did enjoy reading the creative names for their dishes. Reading the menu was a little overwhelming as it felt like a run on sentence. Gave 4 stars as there was no wow factor.

    Food was great, but the rice portion was a slap in the face for what I paid. Things are getting expensive and I want my moneys worth no matter where I go.

    The food is delicious! Great service and a very relaxing and fun atmosphere!

    Was very disappointed with our meal tonight. 1st, we were put in the bar and were not moved, Especially after expressing that I did not care to be sitting there, And it just got worse when we were had to the deal with people coming in-and-out for pickup orders 2nd the food was very bland. The best part of the hole meal was the waitress ,she made sure we had everything. Like my husband said, it wasn't her fault that the food was bad. We made sure she received her tip, the drinks were water down

    Ordered a chicken salad, barely touched it. Had a strange taste and not the freshest. Tons of shredded chicken on it.

  • 4/5 Cory H. 1 year ago on Google
    The long islands were pretty tasty, chips and salsa was decent but chips were too salty. Haven't been in a long time, but don't mind stopping in here and there!

  • 5/5 Amanda W. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was very fresh. Waiter was super friendly and helpful. Quickly seated. Very clean! Best chips and salsa...

    We usually love the Hutch Carlos O'Kellys but tonight was poor. The salad did not come out before the meal. The steak in the fajitas was too tough to chew and the tortilla shell around the chicken chimi was so dry it couldn't be cut.

    Food was fine, but we likely won’t be going back as there are too many great Mexican restaurants in town to spend time and money at a place with middling food and some frustrating aspects. I had the Enchilada Monterrey. First off, it was super small and skinny. Not Taquito-skinny, but halfway between a normal enchilada size and a Taquito. I almost wonder if there was supposed to be two of them and the kitchen forgot one. My wife’s enchilada (Steak-something) was twice the size of mine. The other odd thing was they had an upgrade for the Enchilada Monterrey called “Add Fajita Chicken”. Like a normal person, I thought that meant that they would add additional Fajita Chicken on the side or give a double meat portion, but it was actually swapping out the normal chicken in the enchilada and “upgrading” it to fajita chicken. So it was very poorly worded, I thought. It should be “Substitute Fajita Chicken” or “Upgrade Fajita Chicken” because it certainly wasn’t any adding of additional chicken. Finally their black beans were so bland and watery, I’m 80% certain that somebody had too much on their plate and simply forgot to add the seasoning. It tasted nothing like the savory, flavorful Mexican-style black beans I’m used to. There wasn’t even a touch of salt, it was just beans and water, not a hint of any other flavor. Fortunately my wife’s enchilada was delicious and she wasn’t that hungry, so I was able to finish hers off. If I hadn’t, I would have left very hungry and disgruntled. Once again, the size difference in our similarly-priced enchiladas was very bizarre.

    We had a large group...13 plus child and our server was very pleasant even while making several trips for all of us at different times. The restaurant was very accommodating as well so that we could honor my sister-in-laws birthday today. Unfortunately she passed away just a couple months ago unexpectedly. Thank you so much. It meant a lot to our family.

    Chips, chips! I need to come here and try their food more! We had great, friendly service, the guacamole was awesome, and our entrees were fantastic! Definitely want to come back!

    Not impressed at all. Queso had the consistency of tomato soup.Refried Beans were dried out. Meal was Luke warm at best. Won't be going back. Save your money. Go to Playa Azuls.

    Poor service at the bar. Waited 5-10 minutes to be acknowledged, then it was a long time server who was friendly as always, but she wasn't responsible for the bar stools. We should've moved to a booth but never expected the "Where's Waldo?" bartender. When the lady came out from the back of the house, my friend asked if there was a $1 margarita special. The bar gal stared at my friend and said, "No." So she asked for prices of the margaritas they did offer. No drink, food menus were offered, although we could've reached over the bar to get some, but that wasn't our responsibility. Pricing for margaritas started at $7.00 which was humorous by that time. Bar brought chips and salsa and I ordered a medium queso, and finally decided the $3.50 mug o'rita was our best bet. Now, after a few chips, we needed our drinks. Drinks arrived with the queso. We then asked for two glasses of water and ran out of chips. When the bar came back out from the back of the house, I said , "We are ready for our ticket" which was in my hands almost before I ended the sentence. Too bad that was the fastest part of our visit. My friend put a $20 bill down to pay the $13 tab, and received seven $1 bills as the change she told me as we walked out the door. I said , "She knew how to try for a larger tip than $2 because tipping $5 on a $13 bill probably wasn't going to happen. So I asked if she left $3, $4 for the tip. She pulled out all seven bills and counted 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7... and said she tipped her as well as she did taking care of us, which will be the last time we go back for a very long time.

    Overall our experience was very pleasant we enjoyed our food and each other's company the service did take a little bit longer to get our drinks and it was also my son's birthday and I was rather disappointed when I told him it was his birthday and they didn't sing or do you any type of celebration for him he did however get a free dessert so that was nice but I was expecting some type of celebration or singing from the staff with the sombrero or something but that was not the case

  • 3/5 Aaron B. 2 years ago on Google
    It was ok but to give everyone a heads up, they have changed their salsa. What used to be a staple part of Carlos O'Kelly's experience is no longer. The food was just ok but our waitress was Awesome!!! Hopefully the salsa change was a supply problem being solved by a temporary replacement. We'll give it one more shot at some point and find out.

    Service was very good really liked our waitress! Unfortunately my fajitas were barely warm usually they come out sizzling. My girlfriend's was hot and good.

    2nd time to eat here while passing through Hutch. I have a gluten allergy and thrilled to find a place with a decent gluten free menu (have gluten allergy) and chips fried in dedicated fryer. Good food and service.
