"Caro's is a genuine taquería, not just another chain Tex-Mex restaurant. It's a local family-owned spot that I've been visiting since it first opened. Having spent considerable time in Mexico, I can attest that the spices and flavors here are truly authentic. If you've been misled by places like Taco Bell or overpriced eateries near cruise ship ports in Mexico, thinking they represent Mexican cuisine, then feel free to stick with those Americanized franchise Tex-Mex options."

Our fajitas were good. My enchiladas were of a low quality. I didn’t eat them. Pricey for what you get compared to other Mexican restaurants. The staff was friendly and professional View menu

The best steak tacos I've ever had, without a doubt! The steak is incredibly flavorful! This is authentic Mexican cuisine at its finest—complete with thin, crispy homemade tortilla chips! The salsa verde is amazing! The service was fast and friendly; from ordering to having our food delivered to the table took no more than 5 minutes. Prices are very reasonable too! I highly recommend this place!

This was my first time in Caro's. The staff was very polite, a gentle helped me to order and answered all my questions about the menu. I had the taco plate. Omg it was amazing! There is a wide meat selection as well as a broad menu selection. I would recommend everyone to go check it out you will not be sorry, if anything you will be back for more food and bringing your friends. Thank you Mrs. Mari for suggesting I try it. I am now in love!
