Carla is a must try if you are in the mood for great food/drinks and a lively atmosphere. The food was visually appetizing. Each dish was full of flavor. I ordered the enchiladas and wasn’t sure what to expect as it’s not a typical Mexican restaurant. As soon as I took a bite, I instantly knew I made the right choice. My friends ordered fajitas and let me tell you, they were hands down better than most places I have been to. The chicken was tender and flavorful. The chips and queso were also delicious. The portions were just right. The meal, combined with such friendly staff makes it an easy choice to go back soon. I left wanting more. Thank you for a great meal!

Whether hidden or not, this place is an absolute gem. The whole place is a vibe with the ambiance. Seems like a quaint location, so if possible, make a res unless you don’t mind sitting at the bar. We started with the guac because of course. It was well made and balanced. Those chips had the right amount of salt and were wildly crisp. Kids asked for a whole other order! For drinks, we went with an old fashioned that was a palate pleaser, but the adult capri sum was too fun! It reminded me of a nice rum lunch, but had a strobing ice cube that instantly brought a smile to my face. The kids’ lemonades also had a similar ice cube and tasted like fresh squeezed lemonade, which was fantastic. Ended with some rosé that never disappoints. For entrees, kids went with the usual chicken tendies and a burger. Both tasted fine and the chicken tenders were quite crispy and had the right flavor. We also had the Mexican surf and turf burrito. The burrito leaked a bit, but surprisingly didn’t ruin the tortilla or anything else on the plate. The meat had the right flavor and spice, while the salad had an acidic, but refreshing dressing. That Mexican shrimp and scallop cocktail though! My goodness was that heaven served in a chip. I am overly picky when it comes to Mexican shrimp cocktail and this exceeded any and all expectations. Filled to the brim with protein and the flavor was fresh, acidic, and delightful. Great place to slip in for some guac and drinks or a full meal of your heart desires. But seriously, opt for the meal and fun drinks. They also have a cat robot that’s uber cute bringing your food out. Absolutely loved seeing this thing maneuver through the place.

It was delicious! Portion of cauliflower salad with deep was at perfect size and taste! I recommend for evening dinner time with friends. It might be a bit loud place (like Saturday evening due to number of customers) but when you eat as good you as here you don’t care at the end.

We had a great experience at Carla’s NYC! The shrimp tacos were delicious, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The guacamole was fresh and so tasty, and the drinks were amazing—easily a highlight of the meal. Everything from the food to the vibe made for a wonderful visit. We will definitely be returning!

First time—LOVED it! The warm and cute ambiance was perfect for a date, brunch, or catching up with a friend! The glowing reviews and high rating brought us here and I’m happy to add another! Everything we ordered was a hit: cappuccino, guava mimosa, wings, shrimp ceviche (which I’m not normally into but I couldn’t get enough) and chicken tacos. I’ll be back! :)

Absolutely loved Carla NYC! The veggie taco with guac was incredible—those plantains were next-level and easily the star of the dish. The margaritas were strong, perfectly balanced, and so enjoyable. Everything we had was fresh and flavorful, and the vibes were great. On top of it all, our server was amazing—super friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. Can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend!

Great food, great atmosphere, and fast service! We had a large party of 10 people and every one of us thought our meals were absolutely delicious! We had a variety of meals, from salads and vegetarian/gluten free tacos, to surf and turf and chicken sandwiches. Everything was delicious! The wait staff were attentive, friendly, and continued to check on us frequently throughout our meal. We highly recommend this restaurant!

Stopped in for Sunday dinner on the early side. Two of us. Service was great. Food was interesting. Had the Ban Mi sandwich. Very tasty. Good drink menu too. Not pretentious. Seems focused on nice food and drink in a casual setting. I would go again to try some other things that looked interesting.

We made a 12 person reservation after an afternoon Broadway show and it was the perfect spot for dinner! 12 people with varied tastes and opinions and everyone left satisfied! Cute atmosphere! Delicious food! Delightful staff! Highly recommend!

This was a great pre-theater dinner! Our food and drinks were incredible, the staff were super helpful, and we didn’t need a reservation to be seated and served in plenty of time to catch our evening show. 10/10 ⭐️

An absolute gem in Hell's Kitchen area of midtown Manhattan. A variety of choices and everything was amazing. Chicken enchiladas and Mexican surf and turf were beautifully flavored. We were seated in the Crystal Room and the atmosphere was very cozy. The margaritas were nicely made. They honored our reservations. Thank you Carla.

Goodness gracious we are thankful we found this sweet little place...so much so, we came twice. Is that even allowed in the city of amazing places to eat?! We had everything from the roasted cauliflower salad to the ceviche to the AMAZING chicken enchiladas and well it was all so tasty. The cocktails were great as well. The ambience was lovely and the staff was attentive. I sure hope they are around for many years because these Hoosiers will return.

Cute place with very attentive staff. Went for Sunday Brunch and it was not crowded. The food and drinks were tasty and the staff was friendly. Get the wings! You won't be disappointed. Head upstairs for more ambiance, or outside for secluded (off-street) outdoor seating. Good for large groups, but cozy enough for date night.

This place was great! The service was fast and friendly and the mixed fusion of food was delicious. I loved my bahn mi saanswich. The portions were very fair for the price. We ordered the friend plantains and chips and guac for appetizers and they were both delicious. The burgers were great too. Highly recommend! Decor and ambiance were beautiful. Excited to try the queens location as well

I went here for drinks and apps when another place nearby was a bit too full. The decor of this place is trendy, and the cocktails are stellar. I absolutely loved the vibes. I'll be back here soon! Great new addition to hell's kitchen

Great new restaurant tucked off the busy street. Food was tasty and presented well. Had a good selection of options if your group is hard to please, plus a kids menu! Those aren't always easy to find in restaurants that have a good atmosphere and food. The interior is designed well with modern upbeat colors and music. It was open to the outside without sitting on the sidewalk. Wait staff was super friendly and would have earned the 5 stars alone, but everything else followed suit too. Had the Jambalaya and roasted cauliflower salad with chicken.

Carla's was good! Came in before a show and was seated right away. Staff is light here so they come by to check on all the tables near you. Service feels a little more like counter service than a dedicated waiter. Food was very tasty -- not too much in quantity where you feel bloated or overfull. I recommend everything we got, the burrito the chicken burger -- all was tasty. The atmosphere was good but the upstairs section could have used better acoustics cause I heard everything the tables around us were saying.

Carla is a good pre-show spot for both a mix of tacos and burgers. I would recommend the shrimp tacos. I thought they were great. The cocktails were not very good, but the food was great. Cute spot.

Good atmosphere in that it was quiet and service was attentive. The problem was that the food was just barely OK. I had the chicken enchalades and they were a bit below average.....reminded me of Sam's club reheated food. The guacamole app was better. I think they need to revamp their menu. We had a party of eight and most folks felt similar regarding the food. The cocktails were a mixed bag. The old fashion was good but a really small portion; the adult capri sun was cool in presentation but lacked any memorable taste.

Loved this little spot. We had good food and amazing service! Would definitely recommend. We ordered the Avocado BLT, the Carla burger and the chicken enchiladas. All three were done well. The fries were also nicely seasoned and we loved the service, including the robot who came out to sing happy birthday to another patron.

Fun spot with great decor and likely a fun vibe when busy (we were there midday). Wings were good. Have never had Mexican shrimp cocktail before so it might have been my expectation but the seafood was a little mealy and I didn’t care for the dish. Barbacoa tacos were good. On the verge of over salted but the jalapeños provided a nice balance. Burger was good. The rating is mostly because of the shrimp cocktail which I really didn’t care for. Everything else was good and I would return.
