        This place is good. The tacos can be greasy at times but overall good food. Always clean and very friendly

        Been a few times, which have been great, always good food and fun. Went along to this one with some family friends, to celebrate a birthday. The place had a buzzing atmosphere and busy, probably what you'd expect from a Friday night.

        Great food! Prices are reasonable. Love the patio seating when the weather is nice. Festive music plays making it a fun atmosphere.

        Not usually very crowded which might say something. The food is so so and the staff are luke warm and seem disinterested in what they are doing. The mixed drinks are over priced and watered down.

        I love this place

        Besides the live music on the weekends. Carmelitas staff and associates strive for customer service. The restaurant has been newly remodeled due to an unfortunate fire, and the place looks georgeous. They have beautiful outdoor and indoor setting located in the enchanted old town fair oaks. They have a magnificant bar and there food is to die for. You have got to try it if you havent already . . . . . You just dont know what your misssing!

        General Info
        Alberto and Carmen Heredia began their journey in the 1940's, as migrant workers in this country. Their drive and work ethic paved the way for their lasting legacy. The first Carmelitas was established in 1962, in Roseville, CA. The Heredia contributions to the developing community as well as fresh delicious meals, made Carmelitas a favorite in the area. After more than two decades of dedication, they passed the torch down to their son, Clemente. Together with his wife Rosalba, they carried on the family tradition. In 1987, the Heredia family opened the doors to a second location in Fair Oaks, CA, where they were met with local embrace. Public support has made this establishment a long standing member of the Fair Oaks locale. Clemente Heredia and his family have created a unique place to enjoy food, drink, and company.
