Carmelita's never disappoints. The food is amazing in person or delivered. If you are looking for the best Mexican cuisine in Laguna Beach, you will find it at Carmelita's. Centrally located downtown across from Main Beach. Good value for your dollar. one of my local favorites.

Although it looks good, this meal was so disappointing! All the way from the little baby over cooked shrimp to the unseen crab meat. I will NEVER order from this location again. The one in RSM is waaayyyyy better plus they give chips, salsa, and beans on all take out orders. I wasted $29 on this mess cause it went in the trash. I saved the container though!

Carmelita's is just always, always perfect. The ingredients are always fresh, the food is always enough for 2-3 meals, and yet they'll keep you coming back for more. Great value for the portions, too!

$3.50 for a ramekin of salsa is ridiculous when it's free at the store. I believe the larger side of salsa is supposed to come for $3.50. Their salsa is great but we ordered two sides for $3.50 each and got two tiny little ramekins.. please update this on DoorDash if it's incorrect. Maybe add sizing to the DoorDash menu

Small portions for the price. There was barely any meat and the guacamole side looked way larger in photos. The guacamole was also starting to brown by the time it got to me.
