We found Las Carretas Mexican Restaurant in Gainesville through a last-minute Facebook Valentine's…read moreDay event, and WOW what a surprise! The event said no reservations needed, so we showed up not realizing how popular it would be. The place was PACKED with a line out the door! Even so, we only waited about 25 minutes for a table on Valentine's Day, which honestly wasn't bad at all considering the crowd. We went specifically for their Valentine's special: 2 margaritas, fajitas for two, and dessert, such a great deal! The margaritas were delicious. We ordered the Rita sampler and the blueberry margarita tasted like blueberry pie, so fresh, organic, and absolutely yummy. We also ordered homemade guacamole, which was delectable, paired with fresh, crispy homemade chips. Our fajitas included steak, pork, chicken, and shrimp, and everything was cooked to perfection. The flavors were incredible!!! And can we talk about the restaurant itself? It's HUGE! It felt like one of those multi-level Times Square NYC restaurants, with multiple floors and even outside patio seating. It was like a magic trick walking through it! Our waitress, Lia, was fantastic, attentive, helpful, and so sweet despite how busy it was. The staff worked incredibly hard all night and it showed. Plentiful parking, amazing food, great atmosphere. We will definitely be back to this hidden gem we didn't even know existed in town. Thank you for making our Valentine's Day special after a long day of yard work

We went on a Wednesday, where the special was fajitas for $5.99 - such a good deal. My husband got the steak fajitas and I got the camerones a la diabla. The chips and salsa were so good.

It is…read morecasual but authentic "Non Tex" Mexican, Latin and Spanish food delicious tasting better than when made at home! In the grocery you can find various grocery items including fresh and packaged. There is breakfast, lunch and dinner and taco Tuesday which can get packed. I love the burritos, quesadillas, carnitas, fajitas and fresh guacamole. They're fabulous with a great selection of prepared foods, deli, and vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options. The workers here are helpful even though this place can get extremely hectic. I'm positive that a lot has to do with the excellent management. At La Hacienda it is apparent that they care deeply about the community and their customers! This is the kind of store that many visit daily for something quick to eat and a chat. They may have forgot an ingredient and walking in is comforting and convenient at the same time! We always go back !

I had some business in Waldo this weekend and decided that I hadn't been to Randy's in a while, so…read moreI should head up a bit early and grab some lunch there since I had a chance. I have been here before, but not since the shutdown hit. Business hours have changed to just the weekends, and the menu this time around was limited to almost all seafood. No ribs in sight, which is kind of sad. They were only doing outdoor seating as well, but sitting outside was quite pleasant. I ordered a grouper platter with fries and baked beans, and it came out in short order. The fish was good... I enjoyed it quite a lot. It didn't need tartar sauce or anything. The fries were also good, and held up throughout the meal. The beans are more what I would call cowboy beans rather than barbecue beans, but they were still good. I do hope that things pick up for this place and they return to the larger menu.

Please be advised that Randy's Rib Shack is not just a cute name to attach to a restaurant to…read moreconjure a rustic name. No, the word "shack" in the business name of Randy's Rib Shack is also a pretty accurate description of the exterior of this business. This should not be taken as a negative though. It is a fair description and the food offered here compliments such humble surroundings. The food here is pure Americana and done pretty good. Of course, as with most restaurants, some of the menu items are done better than others. The ribs here are good (they better be, since they are literally in the name of the business). Don't get me wrong, I have had better food, but the dining options around here seemed a bit limited and this place was a good choice.
