    Highly recommend. Food is exceptional. Service was amazing. Can get noisy but never really distracting from conversation going on at the table.

    I have been a fan of Cafe Carlos for many years and it never disappoints. The service is always excellent, the food is consistently delicious, and the community feel inside is heart warming. Their caesar salad is the best I have ever eaten, and the fish tacos are outstanding. My friend had the pesto gnocchi which I also tasted and they were divine. This is my favourite restaurant in this city. I highly recommend it.

    2 couples for dinner. 1 diner did not enjoy the main course. The other said it was okay.They ordered the same dish. 3 of us had seafood chowder before the meal. This was delicious. This is a lovely local gem. I have enjoyed it on many occasions. Will go back.

    After dining at this gem for the past 3 decades and dozen of visits they outdid themselves on Valentines Day. The food was spectacular on a super busy evening. This place was hitting on all cylinders. Well done !
