Delicious original Mexican food
Pretty tasty for a Midland tex mex spot! Home cooked flavor, nice environment, friendly service. We typically order enchiladas. Their apple dessert is amazing! Good prices too
Service was excellent. Food came out quickly. The food was on the other end pretty blend. The ground beef tacos could use more flavor. Prices are fair.
I have been searching for a good Mexican food place in Midland, and I think I finally found it with this place. It's not overpriced like other things you find in Midland, and the food is amazing and close to authentic as you could get for a place in the states. Definitely try this place, skip the other ones because this is the only place you need to go to.
Great place for lunch! The quesadillas are pretty dang good! The salsa is on another level. It's probably the best in Midland. Just saying!
Always excellent food and service, relaxing atmosphere
I went during lunch and oder my food and was served pretty quickly. If you know what you want, then your order comes out quickly. I ordered the beef flautas, and they were hot and good.
The service was great! The food used to be really good here. On this visit, however, our food was barely warm. The server warned of hot plates, though. I have never had this problem here before. Neither has my husband. We were both very disappointed. I ordered a sopapila after dinner, and it was overcooked. I couldn't finish it. This visit was a disaster.
Good customer service. Didn't quite enjoy the food but it was ok. I had to add the salsa sauce to my main dish to give it a kick/make it taste better. Overall it is a 6/10 for me and my team.
Pretty good food. Not really authentic. No alcohol.
Excellent service and food. Very clean.
This place is always fantastic
Expensive and the owner Beatrice is rude. Will never go back.
We have been going to Carambas since 1996. We moved down from New York & thankful found a Mexican Restaurant that knew how to cook good Food. Best Chalupas, Rellanos & grand children love the chix strips & gravy with fries. They have a wonderful menu. Wheelchair accessibility: My husband has bad Parkinsons & they help him get in & out soo easily.
Best I have had in the area.
Without a day I went to eat with my husband, I loved the food, everything was very delicious, without a doubt, the young cook, very attentive and polite, I will come again
Excellent food and service.
This is a hidden gem.Its amazing the most delicious food.
Great Mexican food!
Loved the enchiladas very tasty and service was awesome
Reminds me of Tampico, Im so glad to have found this restaurant!
Good food and service. Portions are kind of small and pricey.
Truly authentic Mexican this place isnt open late . But it is a must to stop in ,there is really good Mexican restaurants in midland and odessa and then there is Carambas food that taste like your grandma use to make . My wifes church group meets there 2-3 times a week I was just so fortunate to tag along for the first time and was amazed how delicious everything was just was bit disappointed our server wasnt the most pleasent .
Always great food and great service! The menu is extensive enough for a great variety but not over filled. Definitely one of the best TexMex restaurants in Midland thats a staple. Food
Had fajitas and nachos. Great place for lunch
Food was good, and server was very attentive. Atmosphere was a bit tacky.
I have been eating here for about 10 years, food is always good but always have to send it back because its cold with no exception for today but the meal I get and always have gotten was not just cold but it tasted horrific ate 2 bites and threw it out!!! I will not return!!!
Excellent service, and the food is always ready within a few minutes. Great chips and salsa also. Id definitely recommend their tacos rancheros
Our family has enjoyed Carambas since 1996. The service, flavor, and quality has been consistent all these years. Thank you.
Always great food and friendly service!
The food was pretty decent, the staff was excellent and the dining room was just a bit small. But overall, it was a good experience.
Very quiet, nice place to eat. The service was excellent but the food was just okay. If you cannot handle spicy, this is the place for you. Nothing we ordered was even a little spicy sadly (which we like). If you want to order an alcoholic beverage, you are also out of luck. No alcohol of any kind is served here.
Cute place. Good food. Great service.
Small portion of food, food didnt have a good taste, food not worth the paying price
Great food. Excellent chips and salsa. Really good and friendly service.
Nice waitress, decent tex-mex
Delicious food with great service. I had the steak fajitas, and they were amazing. I also really liked their chips and salsa.
Good service and good food
Seated quickly for lunch. Chips and salsa are the best! Staff is friendly and helpful. Food is good as well. Great place to dine.
Delicious as always. Service is fast and courteous. Tacos so good we got 6 more to go.
Great price for a full belly. Salsa is yummy. Service is fast, to include the food coming out of the kitchen! Busy spot for lunch, but super quick service. Dont go for margaritas , they dont have them.
The food is delicious, love the chips, salsa, and queso. The fajitas are awesome.
One of our favorite Mexican restaurants in Midland. They have the best salsa and fajitas.
This was our first time here, and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The food and the service were excellent.
What happened ? Carambas used to have the best fajitas in town. They used to be sizzling on the platter, large slices, a large potion just the best. That s why we were looking forward to last night after being away for a time. Last night s fajitas were little more than room temp, tough, well done, skimpy little pieces of mostly gristle TOTALLY disappointed. Did you change ownership or chefs in the last 12-18 months ? You lost my business last night along with any compliments/referrals which I used to freely and frequently pass on. SO SAD.
Friendly wait staff. Fast service. Food is always consistent in flavor, quality, and quantity.
The food was amazing I highly recommend this place
Wow!!! I recently moved back to Midland after being gone 23 years. I use to eat here almost every day back then. I was so happy to see that this place is still open. The food is fantastic, the service is fantastic. I just cant say enough good things about this place.
Always great, kind, and good service
My wife and I have lived in the area for 4 years and just discovered this place a few weeks ago. The food is the best in the Permian as for as flavor and quality. The staff, despite being very busy, are very attentive and helpful. Cant give this place enough stars. Simply great!
Didnt have descent food portions. It was good but not enough. Waitress had good service.
This place has the best Tex-Mex food in Midland and they re always super fast and friendly. You will find the best queso, best red enchiladas and chile rellenos (minus the Spanish sauce) in the area!
Great food at good prices. Good service too.
Best Tex Mex in Midland
Fast and reasonably priced. They do not sell alcohol, but a great lunch option.
Very good
The food is delicious, the service is fast and very polite waitress.
Food was fast but amazing! The friendliest service!
Inattentive wait staff
Great food and great service.
Always delicious and outstanding service
Super chill place with fantastic authentic food. Staff is attentive and the food was surprisingly fast for how busy they were.
This place is definitely the place to go for authentic Mexican food. Delicious! My favorite are the Gorditas.
Decent little Mexican place. Reasonable prices.
Great food and service
great first exprince salsa is on point food was good service was great and friendly
The food here isnt horrible, it use to be much better though. We used to come here a long time ago but when we moved out of Midland, we just havent been back in a while. We decided to go here again just the other day and we were mildly disappointed at just how average the food was. It used to have more flavor and more zap to it. Im not sure exactly what changed, but it doesnt taste the same as it used to. Also, they used to have much much much better tortillas, now they just taste like some bought in Mission tortillas or something.
Dietary restrictions: No cheese no flour torrtillas
Enjoyable lunch
Love the Staff, food ect
The food was OK, Ive had better, and worse. Nothing stood out about the food. Service was great, but I didnt like the seating arrangement. Seemed a little cramped.
I am never disappointed when I come here. and always full when I leave.
It has been a while since we had been to Carambas. But as usual it was as good as it has always been. One of the best Tex-Mex restaurants in town.
Always a winner! Delicious authentic mexican food well beyond average. Two dined at a very reasonable price. Soapapillas afterward were large, and a unique type. No alcohol available. Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible
As usual, service was GREAT and food was wonderful & tasty.
Everything here was pretty solid, I feel like most everyone would like it. Has really good tex-mex staples
Quickest Mexican food ever! Server was very helpful and courteous. Will go again.
Great service, food is awesome & fast!
My mother has been going to this place for over 30 years. Im now going to this place and Im almost 40. It is very well priced and the food is good. Its a little secret of Midland.
Thank you for a great Taco Tuesday! Love the waiters friendliness and attentiveness!
One of our favorite Mexican restaurants in Midland!! Great food and service!!! Always clean!!!
Red cheese enchiladas were so delicious, not spicy but had a great taste ...rice was perfect !!!! Always a delight to dine here.
Worst food Ive ever paid for. Was only warm when served. Ill never be back.
Been a few years since I have eaten here, just as good as it was before. Super nice staff, great enchiladas!
Food was good but waitress didnt listen to what you ordered.
Ok. Have had better. It waa busy but very quick. Food was good. Very clean and well managed. Would go back.
Food is amazing! Very fast service. I would give them more stars if I could
Amazing food amazing service. Will definitely be going back. Tri enchiladas is on point
The staff is always out of this world. I bring my daughter here at least once a week and the food is always fresh and the chips are always hot. Best fajitas is town. Love this place
Good food and nice place to have dinner with your friends.
Great and friendly service. Low prices
Staff was friendly. Salsa was delicious. Food was good and hot.
This is the best restaurant in Midland. Staff is friendly and you get awesome service! You want good Mexican food? This is the place to go!!
Good Mexican food
Amazing !!
Just a little cramped with a high chair.
Its ok
Great mexican food in Midland.
Wheelchair accessibility: Awesome customer service. I am on a handicap scooter. They got into table with no issues.
I asked for a side of beef, a side of chicken, and some scrambled eggs. Great low carb option.
Always great!!
Delicious food . Had take out and they had it ready really fast and ready for me when I came to pick up.
Lowering my rating. This time I came my green chicken enchiladas had little to no chicken in it and the sauce was bland. The service was great and the sides were good. Good chips and salsa too. The tea was fantastic. I dont know if Ill come here again though if I do it wont be for the green chicken enchiladas. I usually like this place not sure what happened today.
Awesome staff and awesome food..yummm
Good food friendly people, and a great place. We go almost every Friday night.
Good food friendly staff
Carambas Spanish Inn was the best Mexican food weve had in Midland. My husband, best friend and I had excellent service with Margarita. Thank you for an excellent time. Parking: Plenty of parking
This is a great place to eat. The food is awesome, the service is very friendly and attentive, and the prices are just right. I will definitely be back...
Loved the food
I like Carambus a lot. It is good food, servis and atmosphere.
Service was great
Eaten here twice now. Food is so flavorful and service is excellent. My husband said they have the best rice in town!
The server was pleasant and the food came out quickly. Thats the nicest thing to be said. You can smell the preservatives in the corn tortillas and the red sauce tastes like its from a can. Left almost all of what we ordered. Just no.
Place is very consistent with great prices. There seems to be a lot of turnover for waiters/waitresses.
The food is always very good!
Good service, friendly staff. Unfortunately food was barely at Taco Bell level of quality. Everything tasted store bought at best.
Awesome food and service
Mediocre at best. Old El Paso taco shells and very little meat. Enchilada sauce was from a can as well. Ordered cheese enchiladas and got beef. This might be what some people like, I dont know how, but not us. This is like mexican food you get in Oklahoma.
The foods were too cold. Inside Enchiladas was cold. Not so impressed. PS. This review was over a year ago. I gave them 3 stars. Now I gave the review only one star instead because This isn t the professional and have no hospitality to solve problems.
Celebrated grandmothers and they were fabulous to us.
Its okay the food was not super special but definitely decent. They will hustle you in and out. On the other hand they bring your food promptly so its a give and take.
Loved the food, facility is clean, service is great!
The food was super delicious, there were 5 of us and we all left our plates clean The waiter was super friendly, the food was fast and a very pleasant atmosphere. Perfect
Always great .
Love to eat here have NEVER had a bad meal!
Good food real good service
Food is always great and staff is very friendly and quick. It s one of our favorites!
Food to blanch no flavor l wont go back
This is a good place to eat prices have gone way up but we all are trying to overcome the pandemic in the his area as everyone else is I going to wait a while before I go back to this place the staff in the restaurant are friendly and attentive on survivoring there guests great job
I had the Tri-enchiladas. I should have stuck to just red beef. The chicken was sort of dry and the white sauce wasnt my favorite. Our server was attentive without being intrusive and was friendly. The music was loud and the restaurant was packed; making it almost impossible to hold a conversation. Guess it doesnt matter much since you get to hear everyone around you yelling theirs. We went around 11am in hopes of beating the rush.. Nope. Overall it was ok. Ill try it during dinner and see how that goes.
Outstanding
Amazing as always! Love their rice and salsa!
Friendly and attentive staff, amazing food and priced accordingly
Great food. The service was awesome.
Great Food at a reasonable price, Great Atmosphere, and Service. Highly Recommend this Restaurant
Everything excellent, well attended. Thank you.
The best!! Good service and people here.
Very nice place & staff however this is my personal way I review a Mexican restaurant first is the hot sauce, they only offer a mild salsa but its tasty 2nd is flour tortillas I tend to look for authentic & last is service & meal, this was an evening meal and I feel I got a lunch portion but yet delicious & waiter
Fast service & great food at a great price.
One of my favorite places to go out to eat. Authentic Mexican food.
Fake Mexican food. Rice no flavor beans very greasy and watery. Ordered fajitas and food was ready right away I know it was not prepared to order why list as fine dining Mexican? To be honest Rosas Cafe has better Fajitas, queso and guacamole don t waste money no I do not work for Rosas and you can go to Monterey or Chitos or even taco villa and get better and more authentic Mexican food you are quick to reply to bad comments but your food is HORRIBLE what place serves white rice as Spanish rice??
Burritos
We are visiting from out of town and went there because of positive reviews. Couldnt wait to order a Margarita, guess what, they do not serve any alcoholic beverages, I had a Sprite, UGH! Bummer. If I had known we would have gone elsewhere. They have been in business 30 years with no liquor license. They have lost millions in revenue, not to say how many people do not return because of no alcohol. Food was average at best. Sorry, nice place but we would never eat there again. Service was fine but who eats Mexican food without a couple Margaritas.
Highly recommend, atmosphere, food service.
Visited tonight and although the food was good the owner and manager poorly handled an issue. We waited over an hour for a sopapilla and even paid our ticket in advance. The server said she asked the owner to come speak to us and she refused. We decided to leave without our paid desserts. The wait for a fried tortilla basically was ridiculous without explanation. All the way from Kentucky, this Midland Texas stop was a disappointment in customer satisfaction. Although... Brittany was am amazing server!! She deserves a raise for dealing with this poor owner
