Amazing family run place to eat! Everyone is so accommodating and friendly. The food is delicious and they offer sweet bread sometimes as well. They have canella coffee as well as regular. The staff is really nice. Prices r good. Food portions r generous. My dad is picky and it's his favorite place to eat! read more

Came here for dinner the other day and just before closing. I ordered the #4 combination plate a beef taco, enchilada and chili relleno with beans and rice. The food was pretty good except for my taco shell which was tough and hard to chew. Good food but don't come close to closing since you'll get the leftovers. Service is always good and friendly counter help. Large area for dining and comfortable seating. read more

Besides being pretty busy-but we were expecting that since it's Mother's Day-we had great service and the food was delicious. As always canela cafe is my favorite. This place literally feels like I'm being fed at my mom's house. Except for here she doesn't have to cook-and neither do I!! We had a few plate on our table, menudo, chilaquiles special, chicharrones special, carne asada burrito and chile verde breakfast. Everyone enjoyed their choices, I also tried my mom's chicharrón special and it was very tasty. The server was sweet and checked on us frequently. I appreciated the baskets of all the condiments and creamers on the table. I love not having to bug servers, especially when they are busy. Oh and chips and salsa were fresh and pico was on point. Thanks Carrillos! read more

The service was a little bit not there that time. The lady who waited on us was not very attentive. I wanted another coffee and she never showed up again. We had to ask another person to help me in the coffee. Also the menudo seemed old. My daughter didn't like it. Or maybe she is getting tired of menudo all together. Who knows. The ambiance it's very familiar and casual. The chilaquiles are always very good. My husband loves his chimichanga. He always order the same thing because he loves it. read more

I recently went back to Carrillo's Mexican Restaurant after it had been a while, and it reminded me exactly why I love this place so much. They still remembered me and took care of me the same way they always have, which truly means a lot. Without even having to ask, they brought out the spicy salsa, chili oil, and hot sauce. It's those little extra touches that make you feel so welcomed and taken care of. The food is always top notch, consistently flavorful, and satisfying every single time. Since the remodel, the restaurant looks absolutely beautiful, but what hasn't changed is the warm, family-like atmosphere. When you eat here, you genuinely feel like you're part of their family. If you enjoy spicy food, definitely ask for the red hot sauce and the chili oil! you won't regret it. read more

Walked in and immediately greeted by friendly staff and was directed to sit where we liked. The immediate entrance area has a dining area and then there is another adjacent room with more seating. The place had a steady amount of customers dining in and to-go. Our waiter took our drink orders and delivered them promptly with chips and salsa (was not spicy) When he came back to take our food order we were able to ask our questions and place our orders. The food arrived and was delicious with generous servings. Our waiter and host checked on us half way thru. When it was time to get the check, the waiter noticed our sodas were not quite gone and offered to bring us to go cups- which he did and they were already filled with drinks! Im not sure if thats standard and its "only" soda, but the gesture was truly appreciated. Would definitely recommend and come back. read more

Quite possibly the best lengua taco and chile relleno I've ever had. The menudo was pretty good too.

I came here for a breakfast burrito only. I believe there is a lot of room for improvements. This place was busy at 10:00 am on a Monday. The place was filled with fellow patrons that seemed to be regular customers. I ordered a carne asada burrito that was supposed to be wet. They burrito came with beans and rice of course. The disappointment was the lack of sauce drizzled on top of the burrito. The cost is extra to make it wet and yet the burrito was barely wet. See pic. I've been recommended this place by others. I found this place to be okay. I am still in search of a good breakfast burrito still. read more

Decent Mexican food. Service was quick. I did have to ask for my soda twice before it was brought to me. I ordered the two tacos and enchilada combo. All pulled chicken. It was fine. My chicken tacos were not completely full and had all of empty shell. My husband ordered the enchilada, taco, then asked for a chili verde burrito and a third item, which was an up-charge. What a joke! The burrito was seriously children size. When the server said that the burrito would be small we didn't think 3 bites and be done with it. read more

Carrillo's in Clovis is ok average Mexican food. We had dinner there during our recent trip and the service was good but the food was just ok. Specifically we had the tacos, enchiladas beans and rice and the chicken nachos and we would give it a 3.5 out of 5. read more

First time here and I was really disappointed with my recent experience here. I placed an order at the counter to go...Before leaving, I made sure to ask if my order had the tamales I ordered in the bag and I was told everything was included. When I got home, I realized the tamales were missing. The restaurant admitted they hadn't given me my full order but told me I could either have store credit and use it within a week, drive back to pick up the missing food, or come in for a refund. The only reason I stopped at this location was because it's close to my doctor's office -- I recently had a cesarean and can't be going back and forth. I asked if they could simply refund the money to my card since they had the transaction information, but they refused and made me drive back just to get cash. It's really disappointing to be inconvenienced like that, especially when the mistake was on their end. I hope they improve their customer service and show more understanding toward their customers' situations. Do better about double checking for missing item. read more

Everything was delicious! The salsa that came with the chips was so good! I packed my leftover salsa to go. One of the best salsas I've ever had. The service was excellent and food came out quick. The margaritas was the cherry on top. Would definitely return and try out other menu items. read more

Good friendly staff. Personally rice bland an salty. Beans also salty. Chips very stale. Chili Verde also salty. I came because 4 1/2 stars reviews. Sorry to say will not return. Spent over 50.00 dollars I'm Mexican American and like to cook an try different Mexican restaurants. read more

Fairly consistent food, usually good. Mostly cordial staff. But we've never seen such a sad tostada. You just get a very very thin spread of beans and cheese. And I'd like to know where the OTHER HALF of my tostada is! It's almost as if they tried to make it bad... and they succeeded. Tostada was even upside down in the box but it didn't matter because there was nothing on it read more

Excellent authentic Mexican food! We were seated right away and noticed this place getting more people coming in as it hit noon on a weekday. We were hoping this place is good as I don't get to eat good Mexican food where I'm from. I ordered the carnitas taco which is huge- not street taco size and very filling full of flavor. Also had the pozole with big chunks of pork and hominy. I added cabbage and onions and it was full of flavor and a big bowl. I couldn't finish and had to take half to go. Hubby ordered the tacos plate. He loved the beans and the carne Asada taco and carnitas taco were so delicious. The meats are marinated well and everything came out tasty. Price is super reasonable and service was fast and on point. The complimentary chips and salsa are also delicious! Glad we stumbled upon this spot- will come back again when we are here. read more

I always judge a Mexican place 1st by their chips and salsa if you have ever read any of my reviews. This place 100% 5 star the homemade salsa so good and the warm chips with the seasoning out of bounds! Ambiance not fancy but who needs that when just looking for great Mexican food. Located in a strip mall with other businesses. Inside super clean and service for sure 5 out of 5 stars! For dinner I had the shredded beef taco plate with rice and beans with a Modello. Simple meal but you know how people screw up simple. Not Carrillo's. This meal was delicious! I devoured every bit of this and left so full! They also have homemade hot sauces which I would highly recommend both are very good but their hot one will leave a sting! Either way this was a great find and I would highly recommended it to anyone! read more

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! We were visiting from out of town and decided to try Carillo's Mexican food for the first time -- and wow, we are SO glad we did. The food was absolutely amazing. I ordered the Chile Colorado and it was hands down one of the best I've ever had, flavorful, tender, and perfectly seasoned. 3 of my daughters got the quesabirria and couldn't stop talking about how delicious it was. My husband and my other daughter ordered the super burritos and they were huge and packed with flavor. Every single plate and the horchata was a 10/10. On top of the incredible food, the service made the experience even better. Our waiter, Victor, was absolutely amazing. He made sure all our needs were met, checked in on us regularly, and took great care of our family. Everyone else we came in contact with was just as wonderful, truly top-tier customer service all around. We would recommend this place 10 out of 10. If you're in Clovis, this spot is a must! We will definitely be back next time we're in town. read more

Bf got el grande carnitas burrito. Carnitas was a little salty and dry. They accommodated no rice and beans in his burrito per his request, no problem. 3/5 I got the dinner combo: 2 cheese enchiladas and a taco w/ rice and beans. I also ordered a side of fajita veggies. My taco tortilla was in between crunchy and soft, perhaps they didn't fry it long enough. We tasted soy sauce? In the Fajita veggies. I didn't get a salad with my dinner entree as listed on the menu. Table salsas were okay. 3/5 I asked if they offered vegetarian options as it was listed on their Yelp page "vegan and vegetarian options." Our server condescendly said, "Everything has meat! Even the chips!" I was confused looking at the chips and salsa on the table. He then said, "We use lard!" Service was better after taking our order. He checked on us occasionally. They're so busy, it is hard to be accommodating. Prices are affordable tho. Service: 2.5/5. I've told myself to try this spot for a LONG time. I'm glad we finally did but we probably won't return as quality of food was mid. Apparently, I've eaten here 7 years ago! (per Yelp photos) LOL. read more

I'm a white guy who has been married to a Hispanic woman from San Antonio TX for 33 years. I understand locational differences of Mexican food. I've traveled all over Mexico and the Southern US from tip to tip. I have a rule, you don't eat Mexican food north of Austin TX. Now on to Carrillo's. We at here after attending the closest Catholic Church near by. We were exited to eat some Mexican food based on the reviews. I ordered a the Enchilada and Crispy taco Plate. My enchiladas literally had no cheese or anything inside of them. Nothing. Then it's like they poured a canned red sauce on top of the enchiladas. It didn't seem home made. The young man that was to wait our table needed to be chased down for anything. It's as though his section was on the other side of the building. I felt bad for the man in the kitchen. Seemed as though he was either the owner or manager but he was doing the cooking and appeared to be in the kitchen. I'm going to chalk this review up to cultural and location difference except for the nothing inside of the enchiladas. We didn't want to complain but in San Antonio this would have been a $12 plate, not a $17 plate. We understand that the laws in California have ruined most anything. You can't eat anywhere for less that say $65 to $75 in California. The chips and hot sauce were good and the staff were friendly. Maybe enchiladas and crunch tacos aren't their thing. I'll tell you what made me try this place out was when another reviewer said it was though her hard shell taco wasn't completely cooked and was chewy. Being married to a Hispanic cook, that is exactly how we like our hard shell tacos. Fried in a pan and cooked where it has a little tug and doesn't fall apart. Not here though, it seemed to be a store bought shell and it was stale at best. read more

Greeted with a less than warm staff. Chips were stale! Server admitted they were aware chips were stale . Requested a new basket. Also stale/inedible! Salsa is watery and boring. Server still rushed, annoyed. Ok, looks like she's busy I can let that go. Food arrived. I didn't order a crunchy taco, I ordered a street style corn tortilla. But I'll let that go too. Hard, ALSO stale shell (looks like one from a box in the grocery store). With iceberg lettuce and cheap pre shredded cheese. Not eating stale taco shell. Chicken was bland. From out of town and appreciate authentic, spicy flavors and must be spoiled with our local choices. Sorry Fresno/Clovis... this place was awful! read more

After a very long day at Yosetime National Park we were heading to our airbnb. After making a quick stop to look for a dinner stop we came across this restaurant. After reading the many great reviews we decided to check it out. All the workers here are super nice and attentive. They took our order fairly quickly and brought us some warm chips and salsa to munch on while we waited for our dinner. As we waited I was shocked how many people kept coming in either to dine in or for take out. I ordered the fajitas trio. It came with either a side salad or a tostada. I decided to go with the tostada since I was starving and I'm so glad I did. The tostada was like a meal on its own. Now when my entree finally arrived I was shocked how big it was. Definitely could be good enough for 2 to share. All of the food was excellent the only thing I wasn't crazy about was the corn tortillas. read more

Out visit to Carrillo's was a few days ago. It was middle of the afternoon, no real busy. But not empty either. We were seated right away and given chips and salsa, I love their salsa.

I don't get it. Have heard really great thingss from several people about Carrillo's, but my experi3nce a few nights ago was less than. Upon arriving, first impression was the make-shift signage outside of the nights specials. However, hearing how good this place is I thought it must be better in side. Place is quite run down looking, was not expecting "hole in the wall" look on the inside. Hole in the Wall looking is okay as long as the restaurant is clean and the food is good. Place was full of people ... good sign. Was seated promptly. Orders taken in a timely manner and chips/salsa and drinks came quickly. I liked the lightness to the chips and that they were warm and seasoned. Salsa was okay. The person who took our order spoke so fast and mumbled that it was difficult to understand him. My boyfriend and I both ordered the two grilled chicken tacos combo plates. Presentation wise, the plate looked messy, as if they had been slopped onto the plate. Beans already had the thin solid layer on top as if they had been plated for a while. Taste of beans/rice was just okay, but improved significantly when lemon juice squeezed on top. Tacos were street taco style: two small tortillas, meat, cilantro, onions. No cheese or cabbage. Because I ordered grilled tacos, I could not have a crunchy shell which I would have preferred. Tacos were just okay. Towards the end of our meal my boyfriend gestures to me to look up .... the pull on the ceiling fan above our head was thick and furry full of dust as well as the ceiling tiles. I can only imagine what the kitchen looks like. Again, if the food was good and restaurant was clean, no problem. But everything was a miss at Carrillos. read more

Excellent!!! for no living in the area. Service was top notch. The food was exceptional

Loved the food here, but it's so busy we can rarely go... everything on the menu is great

We came in in a Sunday late afternoon. If you follow me you know I live life with a service dog. Usually, I post about that further down but need to address it earlier this time. We were waiting for a seat and were told right away that we coukd not be seated in the main dining area of the restaurant because of the "dog". I explained that she is my service dog and they said it didn't matter. They would seat us but it would be by the door because they don't allow "dogs" in the main dining area. Later they explained its because some people might be scared of the dog. That os not a valid reason to break the law. I pulled up the law that shows that per the ADA people with service dogs are not to be segregated. They didn't care. They sat us by the door. It was in the 50's outside and everytime the door opened we for blasted with cold air. 2 ladies came in amd left the soor propped open and we had to get up from the table and close it. Other people held the door open for their party who in many cases were still rossing the parking lot.. This place gets 0 paws up for accessibility. If you have a service dog I would suggest not coming here. The server was otherwise fairly friendly.. but only brought 1 basket of chips and one side of salsa for 5 of us. He said he was going to bring us another, but never did. I wasn't going to ask because I didn't want to get charged because extra baskets are 2$. The seats are ripped to hades in the booths, and the place is not super clean. This qualifies as a hole in the wall. That said, I've had some mighty fine food in such places. My mother in law spoke very highly of this place so were going to give it a try. I ordered a shredded chicken chimichanga. I asked for the beans and rice to be served on the side. My hubs got the grand burrito with chili Verde. The food arrived nice and hot after a reasonable wait. My plate was exactly as I asked. We dug in and the food was very good. I was very happy with my chinichanga the chicken was not dry amd the sauce it was served with was good. The Mr. Was happy with his burrito and said it was flavorful. The rest of the family agreed that their food was good as well. We decided we would probably order from this restaurant again, but would never choose to try and eat in house again. It hurts that they choose to blatantly break the law like this..because we really enjoyed it. But it's not very close to warrant placing an order for pick up very often. read more

Love this place the staff is very sweet. Food taste so so good. This is a go to with family and friends. Go try it and you will like it

Went for dinner and were pleasantly surprised that bfast is served all day! Still, we ordered crunchy tacos for the kids - devoured. One kid gave them a 10/10. I loved my chimichanga and marg. The recc Carriolls fajitas were also delicioso. We will eat here again for authentic Mexican. The portions were big. The wait staff were attentive and sweet. The music was a little loud for our taste and I didn't like it when it changed from Mexican music to rap/R&B. The chairs are mismatched metal and wood and the art is random (elephant?) but you're there for the food. read more
