This is the third time we have eaten at Carboncitos in the last two years. The service and food were excellent. The restaurant is easy to find at the corner of 5th Avenue and Fourth Street. The ambiance needs a little work. We had two different shrimp dishes, both of which were large portions. They both tasted great. The prices... more

We went back twice as we enjoyed the atmosphere and food so much. Fun to sit and observe the people walking the cobbled streets. Had good margaritas and enjoyed our meals. more

Horchata was delicious, price was much improved over nearby restaurants, but the chicken tortilla soup was not quite as good as other soups I had on this vacation. Staff was friendly and they do have a nice appetizer dish where you can get all kinds of stuff to dip your chips into. Good solid standby restaurant. more

Amazing. Loved this food. Would have had so much more but was so full after the entree. Would highly... more

This cozy, modern dining room on 4th features some fantastic Mexican eats. We ducked in to get out of the rain and were pleasantly surprised by the offering. Cebollitas de cambray, pumpkinseed salsa, tacos al pastor, all super tasty. Highly recommend to anyone visiting PDC more
