Los Bandidos De Carlos Y Mickey's

I don't know how I haven't reviewed this location in prior years, but this was one of the first restaurants I ever went to a decade ago upon my first visit...

The chips and salsa they put on the table...you can see from the picture, the Chips were as big as my hand...and very good. I had the nachos...appetizer and it was huge. Couldn't eat the whole thing. The food was great, the service was fast and friendly. Will totally go back there again while I'm in town for the next 3 months.

They were busy, which means they are a popular place. I had to wait almost 45 minutes for a table. The waitress was very nice and attentive. The Margarita was wonderful. Queso was okay, not great. I ordered steak and chicken fajitas, and they were good. I prefer my veggies a little more done but otherwise very tasty. On to desert, the flan was okay, not the best I've ever had, crusty on bottom and very bland. All in all it was a good place to eat and the service was great. I was alone and spent $50 on a full course; this is a little expensive in my taste, especially for fair quality. I would not go again.
