" We came here before a Broadway show and the location is perfect! The vibe is lively and the decor is very modern and cute. The drinks were fun, too! I had the old-fashioned, which was fantastic. As for the food, I ordered the shrimp tacos. They were fresh but a bit on the pricier side considering the size. The service was excellent; our waiter was very knowledgeable and helped in choosing drinks. Overall, a solid pre-show destination. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my time at Carla, but I think the food was overhyped based on what I read before going. The location and ambiance are both wonderful, perfect for a date or celebration. However, the authenticity of the flavors wasn’t quite what I expected, and I felt the service could have been swifter. I may return again to see if it’s different. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an amazing experience at Restaurant Carla! The atmosphere is vibrant with chic decor and upbeat music that really sets the mood. The fish tacos were incredibly fresh and packed with flavor, authentic to the region. The service was friendly and prompt; the staff went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. Definitely a place worth visiting again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Got to try Carla finally after hearing lots of good things! The food was good, and nicely presented, but I expected it to be even better based on some of the reviews. The drinks were great! I had the passionfruit margarita, and it was refreshing. The atmosphere is trendy, and although it was loud, it added to the fun experience. I may try again but might choose a different dish next. " (*Curated Review*)

" Carla is indeed a captivating place to dine! While the service was friendly, the food didn't consistently hit the mark for me. I loved the ambiance, perfect for a night out. The shrimp cocktail was delicious but the tacos left something to be desired, lacking the authentic flavor I hoped for. However, if the other dishes are any indicator, I might have just picked unwisely. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved the atmosphere at Carla! The vibrant decor makes it a lovely spot for dinner with friends. I had the calamari to start, and it was delicious. My main course, the seafood enchiladas, were full of flavor! The waiter was incredibly attentive and made our evening memorable. Yes, it's a bit pricy, but for the experience and food quality, it’s worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Carla is absolutely delightful! The vibrant atmosphere was infectious, and the energy in the restaurant was palpable. I indulged in the barbacoa tacos, which were deliciously tender and seasoned well. The margarita I ordered paired perfectly. The server was attentive, and I kept feeling like I was at a fun family gathering. I will be returning soon for another round of tacos! " (*Curated Review*)
