    Menu prices before
    Dan B.

    Been a customer of Don Carbon for a while, and it's good. However, this isn't fine dinning. This restaurant increased prices dramatically! What use to cost $9.47 (3 piece combo) is now $14.47. Compare the menu and everything is crazy expensive. I know what everyone is thinking, inflation, sorry no. While inflation accounts for most increases this is in the realm of price gauging. I enjoyed this place for a quick meal for me and the family but I won't be going back. A meal for me and my wife $50 dollars. Unsustainable, unjustified, and not worth that price point. Sorry but I would spend my money elsewhere if I were you. Defiantly better options out there that are not this expensive.

    Running around town needed a quick bite and beer. We picked a good one even though this is a chicken place we got a burger and beer. Cashier was friendly and helpful. Small storefront location with a few tables outside.

    First time to Don Carbon and I'm sure glad I did it. So much flavor. The place is my new go to for quick eats!!!

    The square tortillas!

    Let me start by saying this place is a crazy good deal! I got a ton of food during a recent lunch visit, plus a fountain drink, for only $9. I recommend the Carboncito combo - comes with a drink, two (big) pieces of chicken, and two sides of your choice. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the portion size was plentiful. I got a baked potato, which came topped with butter and shredded cheese, and cooked well. I also got a side salad, it seems like ranch dressing is to go-to dressing, which I didn't mind. They also have rice, fries and beans among the side options. To top it all off, it comes with complimentary (square!) tortillas and a selection of salsas, which was a nice finishing touch. The restaurant was bright and clean, and my food came out super fast. This is a great lunch option if you're looking for a break from the office.

    Decent food but the service could not be worse. They are very slow and quite rude. There are better experiences to be had.

    Continues to be my favorite spot. Too bad you lost the board for "Ribeye on board". However, the…read moreexplanation given makes sense. Keep going guys. You are my go to when visiting El Paso. Your location specific.

    I visited this restaurant around 8:00 p.m. on a Monday evening while in town for a business trip…read more It was conveniently located near my hotel, and my first impression was very positive. The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere, was busy with guests, and I was seated within just a few minutes of arriving. Unfortunately, the experience began to decline after I was seated. I waited approximately 10-15 minutes before anyone acknowledged me. While waiting, I looked through the menu and was surprised to find it noticeably dirty, which wasn't the impression I expected from a restaurant of this caliber. When my server finally arrived, she was polite but didn't seem particularly welcoming or engaging. She appeared stressed, which made the service feel rushed rather than hospitable. I ordered a Diet Dr Pepper and my meal at the same time since I had already decided what I wanted. It then took another 10 or more minutes for my drink to arrive. Shortly afterward, someone delivered bread with honey butter, which was excellent. However, no bread plate, napkin, or silverware accompanied it, so I had to flag down another employee before I could enjoy it. After waiting another 20-plus minutes, my steak and fries finally arrived. I had ordered the steak medium rare, but it was burned on one side, barely seared on the other, and when I cut into it, it was blue rare--nearly raw. I asked my server to send it back, and she promptly took it to the kitchen. About 15 minutes later, a replacement steak arrived. Unfortunately, while the opposite side was now burned, the inside was cooked to medium well. I let my server know this was still unacceptable, and she asked if I would like another steak prepared. I agreed, requesting simply that it be cooked medium rare without being burned. To the restaurant's credit, the third steak was prioritized and delivered by who I believe was the manager. She asked me to cut into it to confirm it was cooked correctly. Although the replacement was noticeably smaller and thinner than the original, it was cooked to a proper medium rare, so I accepted it. By that point, however, my fries were completely cold. The manager apologized briefly but never returned to check on the meal or my overall experience. My server didn't return until I was nearly finished eating, at which point she asked if everything was okay. I simply requested the check. What should have been about a 30-minute dinner stretched to well over an hour, and after a long day of business travel, I was ready to return to my hotel. I wasn't expecting my meal to be completely comped, but after multiple mistakes and significant delays, a small gesture of goodwill--such as discounting the entrée or even comping the soda--would have gone a long way. Overall, this restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere, and I believe the food has the potential to be very good when prepared correctly. However, the service, management's follow-up, and overall attention to the guest experience fell well below what I would expect from a restaurant of this quality. I hope they can improve these areas because the restaurant certainly has the potential to provide an excellent dining experience.
