El Carnaval Mexican Restaurant LLC, Licking MO

We were so pleased with our food order
Waitress was very nice and attentive
to our needs.

It was fine. On this day they was understaffed for the amount of tables. Food seemed rushed and thrown together.

Folks let's hope you don't get the new waitress when you visit!
She's not friendly, forgot my drink didn't come back and check on me
maybe if she wasn't so stoned she might of done better.

Friendly service gets the 1 star. Food wasnt good at all. My wife and I both got the fajitas and it was terribly bland and didn't hardly have any meat. All onion, not much more. Our friends got enchilada and both their plates were cold and wasn't hardly anything in them.

This used to be one of our favorite places to eat but the quality had dropped and the prices have gone up!
Sad to say we probably won't go back!

Took 5 min to order our drinks. Then another 5 to receive our chips, salsa, and drinks. Food was not as described on the menu and the waiter called the owner, owner said that the menu is being changed and is reflecting the new menu that they don't have yet. And what was ordered was correct. Terrible service, food was gross, beans were very watery, rice was plain, everything was just bland, except the salsa. Chips were made fresh, came out covered in grease with no salt. The waiter had the audacity to take off his apron and un tuck his shirt, basically got out of uniform, came over to us and said I'm off work now but I guess I will still serve you while you're here. To say the least we were very disappointed

Good food, good staff.
Not my favorite food, but it is good when you're in the mood for it.

Very clean and very awesome waitress! I believe her name was Cora? Food was great, and great chip's!
I am from out of state and when I get back down that way I will stop in there for sure.

Clean and friendly. Only 4 stars due to the very lengthy delay in food service. Our whole table was served and it took an additional 15 minutes for my five year old to get her plate. Very long time for a kid hungry and seeing everyone else with food.

Over cooked food. Not authentic. Long wait. We were given silverware from another table that had just been vacated. It was wrapped, but with carona virus I believe that was less then sanitary. In all fairness they offered us a plastic fork.

Waitress was really nice but the food was just ok. The margaritas were really good also which is the reason that we felt that they should deserve a 3 star rating.

Food not Hot (in temperature). Not very flavorful and the margarita was not anything to right home about. Our server though, Awesome!

This has to be the best Mexican food I've eaten outside of Mexico. Good service, good prices, and the beer is really cold. I highly recommend this place.

Hard to believe you can find this level of excellence in mexican food way out in the country. Had the best meal and the margaritas were delicious too!

I think you guys have the best chips of any restaurant. Thin, crisp and not greasy. I Love your food. My husband loves you salsa.

Unexpectedly THE BEST Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. We had just got off the river getting ready to head home looking for a quick bite and found this place. We highly recommend!
