Reviews
“ Our first time at Carlos O'Kelly's and the food was tasty. Our server (I didn't get her name but she was new) was great and went out of her way to help me with my vegan accommodations! Thank you! ”
Kaylyn S.
“ Food was EXCELLENT! Best chimichanga I've ever had! Service could have been better. Waited almost 10 minutes for a drink order, when giving our drink order, we ordered our food and a side of queso. Didn't get our queso until we got our food. Got our food about 20 minutes after ordering, the waitress that brought our food (different from who took the order), upgraded our queso free of charge for the wait. ”

“ Food was very good, with decent sized servings. The best part of our visit was our waiter, Colton. He was so friendly and helpful. ”
