Carmel's Mexican - Toledo

Perfect place to stop for a marg, midday.Both employees and customers are fun to chat with!Try the Pink Starburst Margarita. Delicious!

Having moved back to the area from Arizona, I had mentioned to a friend that I would love to find a place with a decent margarita. They recommended Carmel 's as an option. While I rarely eat at the same restaurant twice in the same week, I had such an overall wonderful experience, and enjoyed the food so much, I went back (to Carmel 's two days after my first visit. Both times were weekdays, both times the parking lot was almost full; and yet both visits I was impressed with the great experience from both the waitresses, and the fast service from the bar kitchen! The food portions and flavors were very satisfying. I had the Burralada the first time, and the Wet Burrito the second time. Also, I tried a couple of the special appetizers and limited time dessert. Loved every one of them! The margaritas were enjoyable as well, and didn 't give me the fatigue and heartburn that some margs give me (I suspect they use a higher shelf Tequila here . Lots of options of margs. Between my two visits I tried the Peach (my favorite , Mango (also very good! , Strawberry (decent , and Raspberry (personally won 't get again as it was more a 'candy Raspberry flavor; and I prefer a more natural taste . Vicky and Veronica (servers took great care of me on my visits, and both times management (Roger checked in as well to ensure I was content with everything. I 've already been recommending this place to family, friends, and co-workers, and will most certainly be back!Added note; the chips and salsa are among THE BEST I 've ever had anywhere!

I ordered the beef ramen. Very good soup, large portion.

Excellent Mexican food and reasonably good prices.Service was fantastic too!Parking: Limited parking in lot.

GREAT FOOD IF YOU GET CARRY OUT CHECK IT BEFORE YOU LEAVE.
