Carlos’ n Charlie’s

Bad service, my meal came and they forgot about my wife. Just the two of us there. We shared my food and hers came 20 minutes later. Ready to leave and couldn’t find anyone forever. Amazingly disappointing.

I ordered the chicken chimi with added red sauce and it is great! Beer is cold and the margaritas are good. The servers were nice, checked back with us and had the drinks coming. I live here in Vegas and for a restaurant in a hotel it was good.

We ate at Carlos’ n Charlie’s on our first night in town. We THOUGHT it would be a good pick because it was in our hotel.
MENU: Decent. There were a good amount of items to fill each one of your needs, whether it was chicken, pork, steak, seafood, etc.
PRICE: Decent. It wasn’t too pricey, considering Las Vegas can REALLY get you on a bill.
SERVICE: Poor. This is where it all went south. It was incredibly dark in the area we were sitting. The only light was a string of lights that couldn’t attract a moth. Our server greeted was prompt at first, but then it turned into a test of patience. Things seemed to take FOREVER! The place was not busy enough to receive the lack of attention we received.
BOTTOM LINE: This could have been a higher review had our service been a bit better. Could it have been just our server? Potentially!

Try their habanero salsa! It’s really hot
I don’t know why this place only has two stars. I’m only giving them a 5 stars cuz I own a food truck an want them to do well (I know how hard it is)
I liked the food and the bartender last Sunday was a huge hit (: we were good an tatered! He got us goin really good and funny too. Good service!

Frozen margaritas are actually a lot of sugar presented in a beer glass
Just one waitress on entire patio with a terrible service. They closed the patio at 9pm and they ‘forgot’ to tell us, just camed and put the bill on the table.
Inside no service at all … 15 minutes nobody comes to my table so I left.

I went with my girlfriend and another friend a few days ago. I’d never been, but not sure I’d go back.
We went because my friend was staying at the Flamingo, so it was conveniently located. Food was overall good, though a bit pricey: $ 17 for 3 carne asada tacos. $ 1.90 for a small container of guacamole seemed high, too. It looked like less than an ounce.
Tropical atmosphere was kind of cool outside (thankfully it was nice outside). Biggest issue I had was with service. Our waitress didn’t seem that friendly, and when we finally got our food, we still didn’t have any silverware. She brought 2 and had to get a 3^rd, but it’s just a detail like that that’s annoying.
Just wasn’t impressed by the place. Food was the best part, but definitely not my first choice on the Strip. I’d probably try something new next time I eat at the Flamingo.

Stopped here for drinks after having dinner at another restaurant. It was a Thursday afternoon and the place wasn’t that busy. We sat at the bar, for as dead as the place was the service wasn’t fast. We waited a while for the bartender to come to us. She told us certain drinks were buy one get one and I thought it was a good deal. I ordered a frozen margarita and got one free. We’ll both margaritas were very weak which is why it’s bogo.
The outside bar and dining area are nice but the service and drinks were not impressive.

It really wasn’t that bad. Looking at other reviews, it almost makes me wonder if I should have checked for a hair in my food or something.
After a night of Saturday drinking, my Sunday breakfast burrito definitely hit the spot. I will say, there wasn’t a lot of breakfast/​brunch options but then again, they probably didn’t open to serve brunch.
The patio was a great place on a beautiful, sunny Sunday. The service was a-​ok, but our waiter was servicing a lot of tables. The patio is like a wooden deck and the table next to us had a toddler that spilled some food or something underneath him. When they left, the manager was mopping or brushing it or something and just brushing it into the cracks to go underneath the deck. Ew. God forbid you ever lose something in the cracks, I would say goodbye to it forever!

As bad as most everyone says it is. Why can’t they fix this? Fast food would be a better option. It’s a shame because they are so well known.

Environment was fun and enjoyed that there was outdoor seating. We went for lunch. It was quite pricey for a weekday lunch. I understand it’s Vegas but there should still be a lunch option. Prices seemed too high for the quality of food. it reminded me of Don Pablo’s or Chi Chi’s but those restaurants prices are closer to the quality of the food. Kind of disappointed in the selection as well. Most appetizers were the same price as entrees.

Horrible food.
For 18 $ I got fish tacos that were lame, dry fried small piece of fish. One glass of sangria 17 $.
Other friends got dishes for over 20 $ a piece and presentation and amount of food was so cheap looking.
I would expect more for the money, service was slow and waiters have to probably run long distance to get to tables. I would not recommend it to anyone and I won’t be back.
They don’t even offer chips and salsa as usual Mexican restaurant.

The place was packed at 2:00 on a Saturday afternoon. We were seated, but it was a long time before we had a server stop by. Frozen marguerites were half price, but on the rocks were not. Disappointing.
We had the cheese dip appetizer which was decent but we waited forever… again.
Placed our meal order of a chicken and cheese burrito and enchiladas. The server said guacamole on the side and I said yes because I thought they would put it all over, but no, it is a $ 2 charge. Annoying that I wasn’t told.
Both meals were nice and hot, but lacked any sauce so they were extremely dry. The Spanish rice was good
I am thinking that $ 75 for what we had was pricey. The marguerites were $ 11 each. Ouch!
Overall, really not worth the money.

Came to eat here with 4 other people and a slow afternoon… literally one other table that I saw on the inside of the restaurant yet it took sooo long to just order waters…
I told the people at my table «I guess they don’t care about us» and what do you know ALEJANDRA finally came to take our order
The food was whatever. Nothing to write home about.
Now come time to pay for the bill, we all were paying separately and all on cards
Alejandra comes over and we tell her what’s going on, and she said she will write this all down. She brings a paper and one of the people at the table wrote on the paper what amount belongs to which card. Simple enough you would think?
We all got our receipts back with the correct amounts we all gave her individual tips, she sucked so I know we all left low amounts I personally left 3 dollars tip on my 15 dollar meal.
I live in Nevada, all the people with me were visiting from out if state… mind you that.
We get to my place with is 35 mins away and come to realize on our bank statements we were over charged!
My 15 dollar meal showed up at 71 dollars on my statement!!!
My brothers meal was 17 showed up to 32 dollars???
And so on…
I called the restaurant and spoke to the manager Gonzalo and he said I have to come in so he can look at my receipt.
Luckily I kept mine…
We drive 35 mins back to this shit place for him to say she must have rang the whole Bill on one card and then canceled and corrected it?!
OK but that doesn’t not explain the random amounts on each bank statement, they were all different amounts! He could not explain.
He only pulled up my transaction because I’m the only one who kept the receipt and guessed on what might have happened.
He said he couldn’t pull up anyone else’s without a receipt
Waste of time!!! I told him I’m a local I can come back here if my money isn’t put back into my account but they aren’t what happens if they are not reimbursed ?!
What does he do say to call accounts and gave us his card…
Nothing was resolved.
This bitch probably added outrageous tips for herself on all our meals individually.
Tell me why in the world would I tip 56 dollars on crappy service and a 15 dollar meal.
Never going to come back, and if I do its to continue to fight for my money if they don’t take care of it in the next few business days.

Wanted to eat at the Buffet but it was closed and we didn’t want to wait 2 hours for dinner to start. So someone suggest Carlos’ n Charlie’s; we should have waited for the Buffet…
Our waiter was nice and fairly prompt, food took a little while to get and was way over priced for what you get and the quality. After looking at the menu a couple members of our party ordered some appetizers to hold them until the buffet opened and drinks,
A small bag of Chips and Canned Salsa $ 7.00, come on it’s a bar, you want people to drink give them some free chips and Salsa (Bartending 101) but no this place gouges you for $ 7.00 for chips. A small Cheese Quesadilla $ 14.00, again only double the price of any other Mexican restaurant. Since it was happy hour some drinks were 2 for one, this would be nice if they were good but they were not that great…
1 Star for the Food, and High Prices and extra star for our waiter, won’t be coming back here again.

We wanted to have a relaxing meal on Friday. So, we ventured into Carlos’ n Charlie’s as there was no queue in front of the restaurant.
We ordered the following:
Enchilada Special
Burger Special
Lemonade
Total with tax and tip came to $ 38.00
Pros:
Enchilada was very delicious. Portions were very generous.
I am a sucker for Habanero salsa. Salsa had a kick to it (+1)
Server was attentive and very informative.
Abundant seating, TV’s to catch games. Lots of specials on booze as well as food.
Cons:
None.
There was an employee taking pictures and scamming us for a Las Vegas memorabilia postcard. Against the Mrs’s protest, I fell for the tourist trap. *Laughs*

Ugh. Terrible service here. Took forever to get a drink and then even longer to get the bill. SO much for a quick stop.
We stayed at the flamingo (which I will never do again) and they were hustling us the whole time for drinks here.

Not a fan of this place. We stayed at Flamingo and passed by this restaurant aka bar everyday. One night, we were approached by a promoter to check this place out for open bar $ 20. We had a long and tiring day and decided to have a drink there instead o walking out in the hot weather to other places. Well, when we were at the bar, it looks like they are understaffed and it takes forever for us to get our drinks. Music is too loud and I don’t enjoy myself at all. After 15mins, decided to leave after one drink. Can’t wait to get out!

I really have to say don’t go here. A couple of our party stopped in to get buy 1 get 1 happy hour drinks, then decided to hang out and get food. Our server was nice, but completely overwhelmed. It took 20 minutes between when we were able to place a drink order then a food order because he was nowhere to be found. Once we had ordered our food, it took almost 45 minutes to arrive, which tells me the kitchen was slammed as well. Twice we had someone attempt to deliver the incorrect order to our table, which ended up being for the tables around us.
The food was just ok — shrimp quesadilla was a little undercooked (cheese not completely melted) and very overpriced at $ 16. The habanero sauce is legit though — super hot! That was nice. The «big mama» drinks are not much more than a pint — we tested refilling one from a water glass. It’s mostly just thick plastic. Once we were done eating, it took forever to get the check and another forever for them to process the payment. Luckily we were with good company, but I’d definitely not come back by choice.

I was scuuuuuured to buy the $ 30 for $ 15 because of the reviews but I did it anyway. Why not, it’s Vegas!
Got here around 4 on a Wednesday. Sat on the patio. Really nice atmosphere outside. Breezy and cool, yes even for Vegas. Our server came right away, we showed him our coupon and he told us our options. He allowed us to have 2 separate checks so we could get happy hour prices and also use the groupon for food. Cool beans.
We got the sampler for $ 31. There were 2 of us. Girls. Couldn’t come close to finishing it. It wasn’t great but it wasn’t horrible either. Just your average Vegas Mexican food I suppose.
We each had 2 beers and were on our way! No complaints here! I’d go back but maybe just for drinks. If you go to eat, look for a coupon. Have fun!

We got there around 8:00PM and sat outside. Was very loud, making any conversation a shouting match.
Food is Mexican/​American and pretty good. Very slow service (waitress giving menu, taking order, bartender bringing drink, getting food and paying bill. Don’t go here if you have a tight schedule.
Drink was just OK. Bartender was juggling drinks and putting on a show for patrons, perhaps that slowed things down?
