I succumbed to peer pressure!
Don't you hate it when you don't trust your own instincts? OK, so Yelp is a great resource and so are friends' recommendations. But when it comes right down to it, it's all a matter of opinion. When it comes to Carolina's Mexican Food, mine differs from most.
I've mentioned in other reviews that I love the idea of a mom-n-pop place where local owners are doing their own thing, contributing to the local economy with jobs and paying their taxes. Plus, this place makes their own tortilla shells. so that's a nice touch.
The food isn't especially memorable. The machaca or chicken tacos are appropriately sized overall, but contain mostly just iceburg. See for yourself with the posted pics. The chicken was flavorless, but the machaca was a bit easier to discern. Also, the size of the cheese quesadilla was fine, though proportionately had little cheese.
In the interest of safety, I would NOT recommend coming here at night alone. If you must, be sure you're with a group of people and at least one or two of you have sobered after a night of drinking. This place is OK for taking care of the munchies. Just be sure you're careful to be safe in this less-than-stellar neighborhood.
