Carbon Live Fire Mexican Grill

First time at this place but came highly recommended so I had to try for myself. We did three tacos (2 steak 1 barbacoa) and a steak and shrimp burrito. Everything was well seasoned and delicious. The red salsa was the perfect kick of heat and flavor to add. They also have a full bar so we ordered the lime and strawberry margarita- both were delicious. The place was busy but didn’t have too long of wait to get our food. Witnessing the amount to traffic at the restaurant told me everything I needed to know. Carbon will be seeing me again in the near future.

First time here, loved the full strips of steak on the tacos and they were loaded right! The server was very attentive! Shocked at how good the special Margs were. For the great price usually places don't make them that good but this place does!!! So happy we stopped in!!!

Great spot if you are looking for a quick bite to eat but want a fancy restaurant atmosphere! Staff very friendly and so was the owner!

I ordered the Mother Clucker and it was burrito with just char-grilled pieces of chicken and tequila lime sauce. The sauce is on the sweet side, so Inwont be getting it next time, but the chicken is delicious and plenty. I’m satisfied as a first timer with my $20 lunch w drink. I recommend it and will be returning.

I typically order delivery from Carbon Live but since I was in the area I decided to stop in for lunch recently and was not disappointed. The food is always fresh and really good. The service was fast and friendly. There are only a couple tables and a counter, definitely a no frills spot, but definitely some of the best food I've had in the city.

Stopped in 8-6-2025 and the experience was everything. I did not get a chance to try the main course of food but I did the black beans and the potatoes. I wish the potatoes were cooked a lot longer they were probably flash cooked with some sort of tomato sauce on them, herbs and spices. The black beans were seasoned very well. I really came here for the margaritas and upon arrival I found out that they were $7 from open to close. Very flavor I had was pretty good. The lime is definitely made fresh and in house everything else was a prepackaged bottle flavor but still good margaritas. You will not be disappointed with the side or the margs at least. I will definitely be back. Jessica was very attentive bar tender, I had the chance to meet Sal, I think he is the owner/manager. All the staff were very friendly.

They have new tortas on the menu, really good! Comes with side of rice and beans for under $14

The first time at this place, the meat was succulent and flavorful. I didn't like that my torta was served over some type of melted cheese, which made the bread soggy. I want to come back to try the tacos!
