Awesome service Awesome food The only thing is there's a creepy employee who hides behind a stop sign that is behind the building and smokes cigarettes a LOT. He's never jumped out or tried to scare anyone but don't be surprised or frightened if you see him. read more

Slow service, food was much different quality previously...margaritas were up to standard and that at least was appealing

Best happy hour in the city $5.50 for a guiness unheard of!! not to mention the staff are incredibly friendly my new fav spot

Cute place and service was good. However frozen strawberry margarita was barely blended. The chicken quesadilla was served with sour crème and lettuce which I think speaks for the quality of this Mexican food. Overall not worth it for price:( read more

The food is spectacular and the waitresses are super nice! I tried the "Shrimp Tacos" which comes in 3. The tacos are medium large and filled with lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese plus the delicious lightly battered shrimp in their own special sauce. It was heavenly food well worth the 20$ something dollars it cost. It is a bit pricey but so worth it! The atmosphere on the patio was great too. Nice shaded areas with good music flowing out of the speakers. I had a very enjoyable time! read more

Carlos & Murphy's - Shrimp Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Winnipeg, Manitoba

+.5 for service Carlos and Murphy's can be what I considered a mix of Mexican, wings, and general pub grub restaurant in the heart of Osborne Village. It has that Mexican theme that's consistent throughout many Mexican restaurants in Winnipeg. I came here late night with some friends, when I actually haven't had dinner yet. Since it was late I decided to have some wings, and went for the Murphy's Wings. They were decent; nothing to write home about, but it hit the spot for late night pub food. The $9.95 price was reasonable for the amount you get (quite a lot). Their happy hour deals are a lot better though. Service was great, aside from the fact a server spilled someone's food by accident. There's a nice patio outside for those who enjoy the outdoors. I would return for a bar night or happy hour, but wouldn't go out of my way to visit here just cause. read more

Horrible experience, will never return. Hair in food, dirty dishes, slow service, dejected atmosphere

Hit & miss meal Chips & salsa were poor, I could have picked up better at the supermarket. Beer & cheddar soup was good but would have been excellent with some jalapeños added. Had the chicken enchiladas which were actually very good but again a little spicier would have made them perfect! Maybe if they even offered some spicy sauces to add on the side. Refried beans were awesome! Rice was very good! The salad was basically shredded lettuce, a little vinegarette salad dressing would have popped it! When I mentioned it to the waitress, she said that it was only a garnish yet they spent the time to dice up tomatoes into it?? Beers were ice cold and their bar whiskey was very tasty!! Waitress service was very good and she was attentive to my needs read more

Please pay attention to this review. I'm from Los Angeles, so Mexican food is as familiar to me as breathing. In a word, inedible. From the horribly spiced main with way too much cumin, to the tragic consistency of the refritos, I kept waiting (hoping) for something to taste better. I can't remember the last time I left 2/3 of my meal untouched before this evening. It was a disastrous $50 nightmare. Do yourselves a large favor and pass this mess by. read more

@CARLOSANDMURPHY .... Who owns this place? Disgraceful, try not serving microwaved frozen mexican dishes, i ordered the chimichanga which was not deep fried lmao definitely microwaved.. stick to the other side of your menu. Absolutely intolerable i should've ordered the cheeseburger or wings like every other customer. Do not call yourself a mexican restaurant. Call yourself ignorant read more

Great food and relaxed atmosphere. Nothing fancy but a great place to eat. There nachos are enough for two to share. read more

Okay so let's begin by the walk-in; the door was a little hard to find being the first time there and it was night time but once we were in the environment of the place felt a little on the Mexico side with the decorations and all(loved it) Friendly service and it's fast so theres no waiting time trying to order the food. Once the food was there it didn't take too long for the food to get to our table and it tasted very good! Good environment Good service Good food ! read more

Carlos & Murphy's - a menu on a wooden table - Mexican Near Me - Winnipeg, Manitoba

This was by far the worst experience I have had ordering food, I honestly like to give a restaurant a fair chance so I ordered abit of everything, spent about 120$ Seriously looks like a lunch lady works there or someone had to go to the bathroom and just decide to shit in my food, Pull pork smelt terrible like over cooked meat and then nuked in a microwave To the people who are writing good reviews you must have been given some free drink at this restaurant or something cause you must be wasted read more

One of the few Mexican restaurants in Winnipeg. Started off with a Margarita--definitely not a redo. Made with Margarita mix from a powder by the taste (Tang comes to mind). The food on the other hand was very good. Lots of typical Tex Mex choices and very generous portions but come-on you are Tex-Mex how about some taco chips and salsa while we wait for food and drink. Patio if it's nice is definitely better than the dark interior although it does remind of out of the way Cantinas in Tijuana inside. I would go back and order Cerveza for my beverage. read more

Carlos & Murphy's - Burritos platter - Mexican Near Me - Winnipeg, Manitoba

Get over it- fellow yelpers. This place is cheap bar food and it's done pretty well. Is it authentic Mexican? Not by a long shot. But it's inexpensive, open late, and they make a mean ceaser. I usually get the mountain of guacamole but there are a few kinds of nachos which are nice too. I'm not a huge fan of the wings over other places but they've added a few flavors so I'll have to try those out. All in all: a cute place, good for groups, and has a patio option. I'm not complaining. read more

No idea what the hype is about this place. The food isn't really flavourful. Old El Paso taco or burrito kits taste better then this garbage. read more

Went here the other day for a quick lunch. Three friends and I split their guacamole dip. Holy cow it was a lot of guacamole! Taste wise, decent. Quantity? TONS! the four of us split the whole thing and still took half home. Granted, I'd eaten soon before. Still, only paid about $2.50 a person! Either way, I'm gonna have to try this place again to get a good sense, but nice digs, got me out of the cold, and decent (and huge!) guac! A little more salt though please.. read more

This is not a Mexican place.. I'm from Texas and this is disappointing. Cute decor for a Mexican restaurant but deceiving...stick to wing and basic bar food lol... not worth $70.......... read more

I heard this was the best mexican food in da peg.....errrrr wrong...well maybe in the peg. But I was not impressed at all the salsa flavorless and resembled tomato paste with chili powder They managed to find jalapenos with zero flavor The premixed margaritas were weak and fake. read more

Great nachos and wings. Takes very little time for food. Don't know what the bad reviews are about. read more

Carlos & Murphy's - Chili cheese nachos - Mexican Near Me - Winnipeg, Manitoba

Had the pulled pork nachos - probably the best nachos I've never had. Will for sure be back.

Best Mexican Restaurant in Winterpeg! Beautiful decorations, cozy atmosphere, great service. read more

Myself and 10 other friends and family joined together at Carlos and Murphy's tonight for Cinco de Mayo and to watch the Jets game. Serving staff were extremely unfriendly and confrontational. It was cool on the patio so we decided to go into the restaurant for a drink at the bar where the bartender Don was extremely rude to us because we turned one of the lights that was hanging over our head off as it is very bright. They accused me of making vulgar remarks to the serving staff which was completely untrue. when one of our friends spoke to the The manager she defended these behaviours.. and tried to make us as the customer responsible... they made us feel like we were a complete annoyance being there .spent well over $1000 very unhappy with the service.. thumbs down read more

Great nachos and red sangria! One of my fave nacho places in the city, try the Oaxaca flavour its deelish! The salsa could've been more flavourful but can't complain. Patio was nice, except that the patio closest to osbourne has the occasional bum asking for a cigarette or spare change. (The server was quick to ask them to stop loitering over the fence though so that was nice) Overall, love it! Get the red sangria! read more

It was late at night when I looked for open restau's around Osborne and I searched up Mexican because my boyfriend and I love that kind so this showed up. The place looks really nice which gives you a real Mexican restaurant feel and most especially the food is really good. We got the Nachos Oaxaga and Burrito but we didn't finish it because it was a such a huge serving and it's very filling. I would certainly come back here to try their other stuff. read more

Great place for beers and snacks. The food isn't great, but it's decent and if you hit this place at happy hour, it's very cheap. Nice patio as well.. read more

Such delicious food!! A little pricey, but mmm sooo mouth-wateringly tasty!

This place is good for appetizers and beers, but their Tex-Mex is really bad. I went there for lunch once and ordered some sort of enchilada plate and it was very mushy without a lot of flavour. My mom ordered a mushroom burrito and the inside wasn't cooked properly and was cold in the middle. read more

It's not my favorite restaurant considering I hate Mexican food but I went because everyone else wanted to go. We went for lunch on a Saturday and my waitress so did not want to be there. She only refilled our water when we requested her / shouted for her when she wasn't hiding and my sister-in-law needed a new glass because hers was covered in gross. Thankfully they had a few options for people who don't like Mexican but my burger was mediocre. I ordered a bacon burger and it ended up having "Canadian" bacon on it instead of a piece of yummy salty stripy goodness. There was also no ketchup and by the time we saw her again and called her over my burger was cold. Everyone else at the table got various Mexican dishes and they all really enjoyed their food. I don't think I will be going back though. read more

Although it's hard to get Mexican food in winnipeg, Carlos and Murphys is not the answer. Horrible food (canned salsa, horrible guac) and a beer list which is outshined by a cooler outside a motor-home. If you find this food tastes good, stop smoking those cigs and get your taste buds back. read more

When the food actually makes it to your table it's super greasy. The last time we visited the food didn't make it. Even after an hour! Great pizza across the street! read more

I go here pretty often because it's a casual and fine environment to go with friends and I mean, who doesn't love nachos. Their food isn't fantastic but I do enjoy it for the most part when I'm there. Their quesadilla is not good... hands down. I usually love quesadillas so i figured I'd give theirs a shot as something light (since the friend i was with hates nachos with a passion so we couldn't share) it was really bad. The cheese had no flavour it was pretty much just bland uncooked uncrispy tortilla with blah cheese in the centre and that's it. Theirs wings are really though. I'd tried them a couple times and it had taken a while to get used to but now I really like them though the do only have the two flavours. Their nachos and bean dip are great portions, the bean dip is HUGE and for a great price we were completely shocked when it came to the table. It's not great mexican food but it's not bad either you just have to learn what to try and what to avoid. It is affordable and the atmosphere is rustic and fun. The service is also quick, good and very reliable. read more

Best place to hang out in town! If you're looking for some great bar food (amazing nachos and wings) or perhaps some americanized Mexican food, this is the place for you! But if you're real picky and not open to trying a different spin on Mexican food then butt out. Leave all the deliciousness for us regulars!! :) read more

I've never written a review because of owning multiple locations of my own concept.....but this was likely my worst experience in a restaurant....multiple issues....but what topped it off was eating what they called Queso......unfortunately there was something foreign in it and it ended up in my mouth.....the cook argued that it was a piece of the onion skin....but I tried to cut it and tear it....not so....the server did a nice job....not her fault. read more

I love this place. Dark, dated, and great times! If you're looking for casual Mexican, this is the spot! You don't need to spend too much time focusing on the condition of the floor or walls...just enjoy the good times and good food! read more

All time favourite restaurant! Great atmosphere and staff I often feel like family as a customer. Best nachos and wings in Winnipeg - and don't get me started on the delicious salsa (house made yum!!). Seriously, if you have not gone to Carlos and Murphy's before you are missing out!!! read more

Have been a patron of Carlos for two decades but have to admit the food has seriously went downhill. I only go there now for drinks on the patio. read more

I agree with the other people and especially the review about good for beers and appetizers.. I will say the nachos are great!! so. if you are looking for some good nachos and a few beers.. I would go here.. otherwise... i would suggest elsewhere.. i found the mexican food all tasted the same, not tasty, bland.. but the nachos were GREAT and a generous portion read more
