Had an issue the other day, and was immediately contacted by a manager at restaurant and executive with Carolina corporate. They took note of the issue and apologized, and the apology was accepted! They are very good with follow up and made things right I will be going back to this Carolinas again , thank you! read more

Honestly, wish I didn't have to write this but something needs to be fixed. I called my order in and the person taking my order gave me the experience of a prank call- she was laughing and unprofessional when taking my order. Also said she couldn't add rice and beans to my tacos..LOL My tacos looked horrible when I opened the box. The chicken was NOT FRESH, it was dry and looked like it was cooked earlier in the day and sat under a heating lamp all day, although my food was COLD. I picked out the bad and there was nothing left but tortilla and garnish. Plus, there was more onion in it than chicken! I didn't even eat it, was afraid to get sick. So disappointed Carolina's, do better. I won't be back. read more

Food is pretty decent. The worship music was a little much, not the typical vibe of a Mexican food restaurant.

They have new street tacos at 4 for $9. Unfortunately the meat is not that good in them. The workers told me the chicken was white meat, but it was mixed and wasn't good. The carne asada had some fatty pieces and wasn't hot. The corn tortillas also weren't warmed up. read more

Carolina’s - Greenway - Butter tortilla no butter!! This happens so frequently I don't even know why I bother ordering these!! - Mexican Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

Very noisy and crowded with a line at the counter. Friendly service. I'm nuts for tasty frijoles refritos and they are awesome here. I ordered two chicken tacos, rice and beans. I asked for a deep fried taco shells. They told me they had them. The tacos I got we're made with two corn tortillas each. They were oily but not fried. I actually liked them that way to my surprise. They are located in a shopping center so parking is not an issue read more

Stopped and got lunch here today. Ordered a Red Burrito Combo with sour cream and guacamole on top. No sour cream or guacamole. Took it to counter and was told it was inside the Burrito.Went back to table was eating no sour cream, or guacamole inside. I showed cashier that was now cleaning tables that it was not in the burrito either. I said I'm sure I paid extra and she said yeah, um sorry and walked away. When I was done eating, I talked to what looked like a manager and thought she was going to credit my debit back for sour cream and guacamole and she credited my whole meal. I certainly wasn't expecting that! She said they didn't have to be rude and just taken care of you. She went above and beyond my expectations to make it right. Very impressed! Food was delicious! read more

All is delicious, have had many different things here and enjoyed them all. Especially the tamales.

I love the food. just prices are getting ridiculous and silly. $30 for just me, one person, like woah talk about inflation going down

Seriously don't know if you guys are trying to pull a joke because I paid for a carne asada burrito w extra meat on DD, my husband looks at his burrito and it's the 4$ potato bean burrito , mind you the potato's are as huge as a rock in his burrito and that's a 10/11 dollar difference. read more

Carolina’s - Greenway - Beans and Bean Potato & Cheese - Mexican Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

Carolina's is a family owned Group of Mexican casual Restaurants. The original location has been in business since 1968 and is considered a staple of Phoenix. They offer foods such as breakfast burritos, combo platters, burros, chili's, tacos, tostadas, tamales, children's menu, soft beverages, and more. The Greenway location in Glendale is very casual. You order at the counter, pay, grab a number and seat yourself. Maybe the most perfect dish we tried was the cheese quesadilla. The fresh made flour tortilla was very good and it had plain melted cheese inside. I tried three different tacos (shredded beef, chicken, potato). The best of the bunch was the chicken taco because the chicken was infused with flavor. The beef and potato taco lacked any sort of flavor. The beef taco was also served dripping with oil. My husband tried the 3-way burro platter. The problem with this one was on the green chili side they didn't add any of the beef but he did say that on the red chili side he did have beef and the red chili side was good. I did think that the green salsa was good and it was needed to eat some of the food. Maybe an off day? read more

What happened to the shredded beef crispy tacos? I haven't had any in a couple months today. I ordered three like I always do but they were tiny. They're almost half the size they were. At $4.35 a taco. I'm embarrassed. I don't think there was a full tablespoon of meat in each taco. Shame on you Carolina's. read more

Friendly staff food was fresh and hot. The restaurant was clean and well stocked. No complaints home town favorite

I had an extremely disappointing experience at this location. It would be the third time I have given them a chance to serve my family food. The first time, they forgot my tamale. The second time, I ordered a green chili burrito, and they forgot the green chili. This time, I ordered food for my family, and I was waiting for over 40 minutes. They served about 10 people before me, and I ordered much earlier. Then, the person in the back, the manager, and then cashier asked for my food in a sarcastic manner manager made a comment what taco. They were watching me the entire time and even asked if anything okay. I requested a refund, and the manager sent a crew member to give me my refund. I am extremely unhappy with the service I received. I just wanted to feed my family for Friday night takeout. read more

Two days in a row I asked for extra cheese and bacon on my breakfast burrito and was not accommodated with my request. After contacting the restaurant and speaking with the manager, i was given a ridiculous excuse for a resolution (we are training new people in the back)( if you want to give us another chance). Beware, although the food is really good the attention to order details are not a high priority for them. This has been a cadence at several of there locations. I guess this is a take it or leave it type of establishment. I see now why they have a poor rating.Well i guess it Someburros from here on out. read more

This place used to be great, but not so much any more. Last visit, I was served rubbery meat and old tortillas. The visit before wasn't the best either. They messed out order up three times in one visit. It's sad when restaurants lose the core values that made them successful. read more

Picked up dinner here last night. It was unfortunately disappointing. Again. My son had his first taste of a chimichanga from Popo's a week ago and wanted his own from Carolinas. I bragged how I preferred them from Carolina's. We got there on time and waited 10 minutes longer than the pickup time. Wasn't especially busy. The to go containers were the smaller ones they've fairly recently gone to. Sadly the portions are smaller as well. My chimi was a lot of puffed up tortilla and noticeably less machaca. Shorter as well. Daughter got a taco salad. It was missing the rice and beans that was requested. The complimentary hot sauce was noticeably watered down. I compared it with the pint of hot sauce that came with our bag of chips and it was noticeably thicker. It should have been consistent. Wife had a taco salad as well and it was missing the guacamole we paid extra for. Very disappointed. Son enjoyed his chimi thankfully, but his was also small and puffed up. He just didn't know any better since it was his first. What's going on? I read through some other reviews and saw similar comments. Can you reverse this downward trend Victoria? Please? read more

We have eaten at Carolina's in Peoria many times. This time we thought we would try this location. The menu is pretty much the same as the one in Peoria. The location is easy to get into and out. The inside is clean and uncluttered. There are regular tables and some high top tables. I prefer the regular table. Everyone was extremely helpful and friendly. I always get a Green chili burrito. These were good the meat was a little tough. the meal was good. We will probably be back when we are close but we will still mostly go to the place in Peoria. read more

This place was awesome .. food was fantastic .. the service was great .. Eli ... overall my food was delicious... Would definitely recommend to come eat at this place ! read more

With a quick decision we landed on Carolinas.... Green Chili Burro enchilada style with green sauce...Woooooo.. Went with a smaller Taco Order and a Mini Chimi(COLD) with a Buttered Flour Tortilla.

Great value. The quesadillas are awesome. Made with some scratch made tortillas the are a winner. The staff is friendly and helpful. The seating is not super comfortable. The seat backs are vertical with no slope and and seat bottoms are hard. Probably can't get any better food for the money. read more

We paid 60 dollars for 3 meals and a cheese quesadilla and it was a waste of my money. We have wanted to try this place and were.excited I had heard good things. I had a pick up order ot was a number 13 combo, number 3 combo and a number 7 the tacos literally fell apart had to eat them with a fork even the soft taco was dry and fell apart. The mini chimis were supposed to be beef and they were chicken . It's a lack of attention to the order and a lack.of caring. I will never go back and I recommend you don't waste your money here. Alot better places you can go that won't screw up your food and order that is better quality. I work hard and don't make alot of money so 60 dollars is alot and I was very upset it was so bad. read more

Usually you can't go wrong with a bean burrito enchilada style, but this time it was. No enchilada sauce which they charge for. The beans looked like they were dumped out of the can and not even warm. Very very very disappointed. Please do better with the next persons order. I won't order from there again for a while. read more

As an accidental traveler of space & time, I've stumbled here from centuries ahead. My original mission was clear: Investigate the past & observe firsthand the events that led to the catastrophic 'Big One.' However, amidst the chaos of temporal displacement, I awakened upon an unexpected anomaly - Carolina's Mexican Restaurant. I was greeted with something called the Oaxaca Burrito. What I discovered was a symphonic twist of flavors wrapped in a tortilla that defied all the culinary norms of my era & transported me to a dimension yet defined. The salsa, a vibrant concoction of zesty molecules dancing on my tongue, offered a taste of freedom amidst the controlled epicurean landscape of the past. In a world governed by benevolent robot overlords, edible sustenance was carefully curated to prevent us from attaining too much strength and wisdom, which could possibly challenge their dominion. Yet, Carolina's food stands before me today as a beacon of rebellion, a testament to the resilience of taste in the face of oblivion. Legend had it that long before the upheaval of the 'Big One,' there existed a world abundant with delectable wonders that travel beyond our wildest imaginations. My grandfather regaled tales of ancient delicacies like quesadillas, tacos, and something called a "Toast ahh duhh". These tasty treats, once dismissed as whimsical fantasies or obscure cultural references, now took on new meaning as I savored each bite of this Central American eatery. Carolina's, a time capsule of flavors from an era forgotten, a testament to the resilience of taste in the face of oblivion. In a world where traditional monetary systems have faded into obsolescence, Carolina's Mexican food offers a gustatory experience that transcends the barriers of currency. With nothing but a handful of scavenged coins and the promise of gastronomic bliss, I ventured into this temporal oasis. To my surprise and delight, the cost was minimal, a mere trifle compared to the invaluable taste sensations that awaited within. As I savored each bite of the Oaxaca burrito, I couldn't help but marvel at the accessibility of such delicious delights, a rare gem in a world where scarcity reigns supreme. Carolina's, where the price of admission is measured not in coins, but in the joy of gourmet exploration. And as I contemplated the prospect of returning to my homeland, a thought crossed my mind - perhaps I had already found my new home in this era, amidst the flavors and comforts of Carolina's. Who needs the uncertainty of time travel when one has the timeless pleasures of melted cheese and homemade tortillas? In the annals of history, it was the insidious monotony of fast food chains that led humanity astray, paving the way for the catastrophic 'Big One.' People became numbed to flavor, slaves to familiarity, until they could no longer distinguish one meal from the next. But amidst this sea of culinary conformity, Carolina's stands supreme, a bastion of flavor in a world gone bland. As long as we continue to embrace the vibrant tapestry of tastes that Carolina's offers, we can safeguard against the monotony that once threatened to consume us. Now rise up with me. Let us be the ones that consume!! read more

Good for fast food Mexican. It is a new location for this local owned business. I asked if they were part of the original family chain and they said yes. I hope that is accurate information because for years I always have heard about Carolina's and wanted to try it. Well, I was in my old neighborhood and noticed this new place in my Dr's office strip mall so stopped in for a fast bite. I had an Asada taco and a buttered tortilla. Both were good. Everyone raves about this place but it was not as amazing as other places in town. As far as fast food goes though, it is probably one of the better places around. I heard the original one in downtown is the place to go to. I will check that location out too. And yes, the tortilla was pretty good. The servers here were super nice. They ran out of ice when I was there and that kind of ruined lunch for me since I could not have my drink of choice but things like that happen I suppose. I also ordered a side of guac and it was nothing to write home about. I would go again I suppose but when I want Mexican I tend to go to our country wide award winners and Beard chefs in town and not fast food. However, if you like fast food Mexican go for it. read more

Unbelievable that the owner lets the workers work with no AC for three weeks now ,Should be ashamed of yourself. I'm contacting the news . You CANNOT let them Wok with no AC. Let alone no sign on door for customers saying no ac. read more

First time at this location. Ordered #13- 3 beef mini chimis to go. Order had only 2 chimis (pretty sure chicken or very pale beef) and neither the sour cream or quac. Rice and beans were good. read more

I made a quick stop to purchase two simple food items. When it was my turn to order, I was asked my name......three times! I asked for a dozen tortillas and a pint of red chile SAUCE. I repeated the sauce part so she would know not with meat. After waiting a while and trying to ignore the loud music playing, which by the way wasn't Mexican music but some noisy sounds. My order was up and I asked the person to make sure it was just sauce and not red chile beef. Big surprise...............red chile beef!!!! Good grief train your employees. Once I got home to try the sauce unfortunately not worth the trouble. Nothing like the sauce at the Carolina location in Peoria. My advice would be wait a year or two till the Greenway location gets it together, if that's even possible. read more

Best home made tortillas in the state! I use them to create make-your-own burrito bars for parties for lots of occasions. I get the small tortillas and they still make big burritos. I call the large tortillas table cloths, because they are HUGE! All of their items are fantastic. Chicken Taco salad is amazing. Clean, friendly staff, now close to my home. Discovered the original location downtown years ago. Have been to all of their locations and they always impress me with great food for a fair price. YUM! read more
