SHORT LIVED ESTABLISHMENT! We've eaten here 5-6 times and it was way above 5 stars! THEN on Oct…read more5,2024, 7pm, we went for my BD. The place was fairly empty. Chips & Salsa served at the table were good. To start, my husband ordered his usual Frozen Margarita. What they brought was a tiny cup of NON-Alcoholic runny white liquid. Then for 5-8 min we tried to get the attention of any one of the 5 men standing by the kitchen doorway. FINALLY our waiter came. We explained and he took the drink and returned 5min later explaining something about "not top shelf", WHAT? We stopped arguing with him and my husband asked for a Coke. We both ordered our usual. Him, "Enchiladas and myself, Ckn Fajitas Hawaiian" We were SHOCKED. BOTH dishes were ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE. I was almost in tears and SO disgusted by EVERYTHING, I.e. the Service & Food & Drinks! Awful tasting, no flavor. Every bite Tasted like cardboard! They even managed to destroy the Rice & Beans. I DO NOT KNOW HOW this place went from the BEST TO AWFUL in just a couple months, but they did just that!! We've found a NEW place which we have now given all our business to. "Los Primos" which is located where the old Las Plazas used to be. Between the Family $ and Self Care Wash! GREAT FOOD. Even the rice & beans were fantastic and I don't actually like either! Their guacamole was so fresh and was so good. Lower prices. LOS PRIMOS IS OUR NEW GO TO Mex Restaurant. They will also have Margaritas soon. They have Beer now.

Fantastic, authentic food, good drinks, really nice service. We friends have travelled together, and found truly atrocious Mexican far from home, but Javi's did not disappoint. Really glad we came here instead of the steak joint our tour guide recommended. Between the eight of us, we had many different entrees, and all were pleased. Cool vibe in the place, too. Weekend nights could be fun.

Not only does Carmelita's give the flavor but when asked they give the spice! In my 18 months of living here, Carmelita's is not only my go to but the place I tell everyone to go to. Thank you Guillermo for a wonderful time this afternoon but also being consistent in your quality and service. Lastly, if you like spice and tequila, do NOT hesitate on asking for his spicy margarita! Just beware, the big size is basically the size of a fishbowl, lol, and I absolutely love it!

I ordered at first a paloma, but they did not have grapefruit juice, so I ordered a mojito. The bartender told me she would have to see if they had mint as they grew it themselves--I was super impressed by this! So, my coworkers and I waited an extremely long time for our food and drinks. My drink came last. It was not super strong, but was very refreshing. We had follow up shots of tequila to our drinks and the patron silver was super smooth and delicious! Unfortunately the service and the atmosphere of the restaurant was not the best. My coworkers and I felt very bad for the waitress and bartender as she did not have any assistance. She was doing her best to try to serve us food, put in orders, make drinks, and clean tables. There were at least ten tables with tons of empty glasses, plates, napkins, and to go boxes. She definitely needed help from other staff members who were non existent and received none. I wanted to step in and help her, but she was very proud and so nice about it. It definitely was not fair to her to have to do everything on her own. I hope that this restaurant gets some assistance soon as it is obviously popular and needs help!

The chicken tacos with rice and beans are great. Service is excellent every time I've called, fast service, enjoy the vibe of the place. My only complaint would be to have more limes, maybe half a lime to a whole one instead of one slice for all of the tacos. My husband and I looooove limes. Other than that, have recommended this place to family and friends. Will definitely go back.

First time, I ordered to go…read more It's been a few days, I ordered burrito to go, and some street tacos. My review is compared to Authentic Mexican seasoning in Mexican food. Not what I'm used too, but I get it, the business is going to sell what the geographical folks are buying. Over all not a bad place to grab a quick bit giving the location, there's limited options and if you're in a pinch, not a bad spot to stop bye. I'm sure their fajitas are great, reason I say that is because, that's essentially what my burrito was. Support your local spot, God Bless and Enjoy!

We sat down at a table and they brought our chips and salsa to us. People started arriving from church and what not and we ordered our food. The food is typical for Mexican restaurants around here, most likely bought in a bag or can and heated up and thrown on a plate. Not that it's bad, just the Sam ole same ole. Prices are reasonable, again about the same as the other few dozens of Mexican restaurants in middle Tennessee. The men's bathroom was about 100 degrees, guess they didn't want you loitering in there, lol. I would eat there again but only if there was nothing else open (the case for this Sunday):-(

My mama,baby sister ,and I called in an order to the McEwen, TN Las Plazas and we ordered El Patron, Cheese dip, Chimichangas, and a taco, he gave a price of like 24 dollars and some cents and disconnected then I decided I wanted a couple more tacos ,and we called back and added 2 tacos and the price went to 37 dollars and some change. And we started thinking about it ,and wondered why 2 tacos cost 13 dollars ,but they kept altering the ticket to explain the price well Iwe got the food ,and it was horrible the meat wasn't seasoned the cheese was extremely watered down , the portions were not full servings more like half or less , it was horrible we called back to express how dissatisfied we were ,and my mother wanted a better explanation of the price ,well after they pass the phone around ,and gave the impression that they didn't understand English, and just kept repeating they added the tacos and completely ignoring the words that were being said ,and just kept defending their actions by saying yes the added it . So my mother just hung up ,and we won't be back since they didn't even try to make it right we would have returned the food untouched if that what would have been required for some type of reimbursement, but no they just seemed to play it off as if it were intentionally done as some sort of game or over charging gimmick to earn extra money . I don't know, but I do know that they lost some loyal customers we had been going to them for years again I'm friends with some of the older employees ,and keep in contact with them. Now I'm not saying anything bad about other restaurant with the same name as far as I know they are still excellent like the last time I had went ,but this location I wouldn't recommend dinning there .
