Sara's full firsthand review

Que ricoo! :) Carmelo`s dishes up authentic burritos, tacos, enchiladas, and so forth.. you name it. A friend suggested that a group of us try this place out. After mentioning it several times, and how much he liked it... we decided to give it a try. I ordered the vegetarian burrito. Whoah, was it good! I`m never looking back at Chipotle! Well... unless.. I am craving a hand size type of burrito. You see... at Carmelo`s the burritos are so huge that you have to eat it with a fork and knife. How`s that for grande style! You simply cannot hold it by your hands and eat it. This is strictly a fork and knife burrito. My burrito was generously filled with so many delicious ingredients. The tortilla is crispy and toasty, which I like. All of my friends enjoyed their dishes as well, which were also pretty huge. We munched on a basket of thin crispy corn tortilla chips accompanied with a mild garlicky salsa. I had leftovers for a good two days. It`s a spot that I want to take all my burrito loving family and friends. I`m going to try out the other items on their menu next time. You`ll end up leaving full, comforted, and satisfied with this home cooked style joint.
