Don Carlos Authentic Mexican

While this location is located near me I probably won't visit anytime soon the cups were dirty. There was only two people in our party . Benefit the food was okay.

It was difficult to get the wait staff's attention when you need something. Rarely checked on the table. Overall, it was a great meal. I'd recommend this place to my friends and I'd go back. :

I typically take my kids to the skating rink on Friday nights. It's always nice to have a place to wait for them where I can enjoy fantastic fajitas for two and strong margaritas. The service is excellent as well! View menu

I usually take my kids to the skating ring on Friday night. It's nice have somewhere to go to wait on your kids where you can get fajitas for two which are amazing and margaritas a little heavy-handed. Service is great

I always enjoy it with Don Carlos. The food is delicious and the service is great. The street tacos I ordered were exceptional! The presentation was also incredible. The chips are thin and crispy, but strong enough to keep queso without breaking.

It was a bit challenging to get the waitstaff's attention when we needed something. The food was served rare, which I appreciated. Overall, though, it was a fantastic meal. I would definitely recommend this place to my friends and would love to return. View menu

I have been dining at restaurants in this area for 10 years, and the service has always been excellent. However, the Chaffee location hasn't had lemons for at least 2 to 3 months. It's frustrating because I'm still paying the same high prices for tea as at other restaurants in southeast Missouri, yet they are the only ones without lemons! What's going on? Please don't use COVID as an excuse; I’ve kept lemons in my fridge for years, and I can buy them anywhere!

Decent flavor. Still haven't found any Mexican restaurant that can compete with back home. It's been very americanized as far as flavor and set up goes. It's just taco meat in it. Like every other restaurant in this state. None of them offer the good steak burritos or steak chimichangas like back home. If you find one here that offers steak, it's liberally a giant steak sliced up. Back home it was small skirt steaks chopped up into tiny bites.....not 6 slices of steak.

Great what I'm assuming is home made hot sauce, not super spicy but not mild, you definitely need to try. Easily best food was the chicken tacos. Not sure how they seasoned the chicken, but they stood out really great compared to the beef and steak which were pretty dull in comparison, also the corn tortillas were kinda soggy. They were out of the hot wings and apparently had been for some time according to the waiter. They were clearly understaffed, but were actually surprisingly fast with the food. The beef nachos were good, though pretty average compared to most Mexican restaurants. View menu
