Testimonials
Clean, friendly, and delicious food.
Whenever possible I try to stop there when passing by Novato. I have yet to have anything but exceptional food and service.
Jose was so quick and responsive that I felt like a VIP.
Super burritos are so large, I took half home for a meal later.
Marc C.
The Tamarindo is amazing! I got a carnitas burrito, it was good and tasty. The employees are very nice the restaurant is clean! Witch is the most important thing to me! Excellent place for lunch. Claudia the waiter was great!
Lorenzo P.
Carmen's is one of our Novato standbys. The food is always delicious, the servers are attentive, and the value is great. Even the salsas are incredible. Try the chicken enchiladas with mole sauce and a side of sour cream.
Ethan H.

This place has the best chips and salsa in town. Along with some of the best true Mexican dishes like tostadas de ceviche, camarones a la diabla, and carne asada plate! I always look for an opportunity to bring the family for a delicious dinner or my co-workers for lunch. Defined recommend this place for a tasty lunch or dinner!
Ernesto I.
I had the best huevos rancheros in my life at Carmens and the hash browns With my husbands chorizos and Eggs were out of this world. I Red the recipes!!!!
Mary M.
Best sit down Mexican in the county. Home style, generous portions, good staff. Food is done with care and always meets my expectations.
Geoff G.
Great for local authentic Mexican cuisine! The al pastor was excellently marinated with perfect flavor of sweet with spice. The portions were enormous. I ordered the El Mas Macho burrito and could have easily split it with another person or two. Definitely would recommend!
