Carmelita's Comida Mexicana

Small restaurant. Great service and tasty food.

Really great Mexican restaurant. Stopped in twice with my group, and service was excellent. Prices are quite affordable, and portions are huge. The salsa is delish. I had the Arroz con Carne and the steak was tender. One of the better Mexican places I have even been to. UPDATE - I keep going back every time I am in the area, and it never disappoints!

I've eaten at every one of the Mexican Restaurants in this area, from Dover to Paris, and this one, by far, is the best. Excellent food and portions for the price. They use jumbo shrimp instead of medium or small shrimp. The large portion of rice and the flavors are awesome. The hosts are friendly and prompt without hovering, always watching to make sure you have what you need. I highly recommend this place!!!

The place has a hole in the wall vibe. Friendly service with a small bar area on the side. Chips and salsa: excellent (salsa was a bit on the spicy side, but I loved it) Cheese dip: excellent Margs: excellent Went with 3 adults and 2 kids, and everyone loved the meals they ordered.

This is absolutely the BEST Mexican restaurant not just in the area but in the state! The owners and staff are amazing and care about what they serve and how they serve it. I’m extremely picky when it comes to food, and a restaurant of this caliber is unheard of in this area (sadly). So if you’re in the area this is a must stop. Everything I’ve ever tried has been fabulous and the margaritas are delicious, and a welcome addition given you can’t get liquor by the glass in neighboring Stewart County!

Their food is very good and the service as well. This is our third time here and it was as good as always. The place was packed, but they were ready to serve us quickly and with a great attitude. Highly recommended!

Place is a little rougher on the inside. So if you are an absolute clean freak who needs everything to look perfect, this isn't the place for you. That's how I knew it was probably going to be really good. We got the carnitas, and they were really good. Salsa was great, and the big margarita was awesome. We very much enjoyed it. I believe the man was the only one taking orders and bringing out food, so there was a little bit of a wait on ordering, but we personally didn't mind. There aren't a ton of tables, it's a smaller restaurant, so be prepared to wait just a little bit on busy days and times.

A really nice Mexican restaurant with more authentic style of cooking. Given the fact if you're used to Nevada and new Mexico style I feel this is right on. Pleasant staff and friendly. Try them if you're by paris landing in paris tennessee!
