Antojitos Carmen Restaurante Y Taqueria

Excelente! A vast menu for a tiny location. We ordered sopes and they were made to order and everything was very fresh and tasty. We tasted all the salsa varieties and wished we had an excuse to eat more.Although rough on the outside, the interior and kitchen (visible from our booth) were spotless.I look forward to a return trip- and the flan we took home!

I'm torn between and 3 and 4. I'm not sure if something happened to the space but the doors were boarded up and the interior looked quite different (very small/hard to order, etc) than the picture shared here. The staff wasn't the friendliest for our takeout order and it was blazing hot outside (note that you'll have to wait outside after ordering). Note that takeout can take quite some time- I think we ended up waiting somewhere between 30-40ish minutes. We ordered a variety of tacos, rice and beans, chips and salsa and my favorite, the spicy and refreshing pickled carrots and cauliflower. I couldn't quite put my finger on it but something seemed off with the breading on my Chile relleno taco- enough so that I ended up not eating it. The chicken and pork tacos were much better. The salsa appeared to be homemade and was pretty mild. Overall, a mediocre experience. We have so many great taco spots around Indy that I probably won't hurry back to this one.

I work right across from this place, but it took me 5 months to finally walk over. Shame on me for neglecting these magnificent tacos for as long as I did. In terms of authenticity- these are as legit as they get. The Al pastor was lighting up my tastebuds and they stuff these babies to the brim! Elite taco game for sure. Prices are super reasonable. What a hidden gem

Delicious!! Highly recommend and right by the zoo! Best mexican food I've ever had in my life!

The most delicious and authentic Mexican food you can ever find in Indianapolis! The food was super fresh, delicious and they give you an amazing amount of meat on your tacos, the horchata was on so refreshing and served on ice in a mason jar (super hip, love it!)..First time here and I give it a 12 out of a 10 point scale! We have been looking for an amazing place like this mom, their home made salsa reminded me of my mom's so much, it got me nostalgic!!I recommend this amazing place and we can't wait to go back for other delicious meals!!

We happened across this little yellow restaurant which is across the street from the IndyGO hub terminal. This is where the bus drivers go to fulfill their hunger cravings, as we saw several eating when we arrived. My youngest son (12) had a large quesadilla (grande, you can order medium too) which tasted "perfect" - his words not mine! I believe they used Oaxaca queso and it truly was perfect! My oldest (16) had two beef sopes (a corn pancake of sorts, topped with lettuce, tomato, queso fresco, drizzled sour cream, beef, salsa - or other meats) which was "muy delicioso" in his words! It was certainly packed with some amazing flavors!I had the chillaquilles with the green (verde) salsa! I requested the eggs to be over easy, and they were delicious! The dish was served with some great flavored Spanish rice and beans which were well seasoned. The salsa verde is NOT for the faint of heart but oh so good! They brought chips and salsaS to hold us off while we waited for the food. I recommend the avacado/tomatillo salsa (green). I was thoroughly impressed with its smooth and delicious flavor. My goodness I want this salsa everywhere I eat.This restaurant does not have many seats, but it is without a doubt worth eating here! The owners are welcoming and kind. The restaurant also has some great drinks - sodas and beer I believe. We will definitely be back to enjoy a real taste of Mexico!

Salsas were impeccable, especially the salsa verde (which if you've read my other reviews you know how I feel about a great salsa verde!)I got a lengua quesadilla, which was absolutely remarkable. There was SO MUCH meat that I thought I was going to lose my mind. The cheese was perfect, and I couldn't have asked for a better lunch. My lunch date got the steak chilaquiles, which I thankfully and luckily was able to try some! After explaining to me what goes on to making this remarkable dish, I appreciated it that much more. I can't wait to be back to try some more things on this menu!

This place is great. VERY authentic Mexican food!! Service is great , fast and friendly. Family owned and operated. Small place but with great atmosphere and super clean. They carry a good variety of Mexican snacks ( chips, candy, cookies etc . ) I'm new in this city , only been here 5 days and I've been here three times already. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

I got the tacos and Gorditas. Everything was delicious and authentic! 100% recommend!

Food was so good!! The service was great as well. Our server was very friendly. The food is 100% authentic. It's actually pretty cute inside too. I got the tortas and loved them. The door is incredibly hard to open so don't give up on it lol. Just pull it really really hard!!!
