Very good food in a quiet small place, perfect for a romantic dinner.The down side is no view at all, and it is indoor sitting only.

This place is very classy. Air conditioned and impeccably clean. We had the grilled salmon and also the ribeye steak. Both were cooked to order perfectly and both selections were delicious. The bar offers an impressive beer and wine list and is fully stocked. The service is excellent and friendly.

We have gone to Carmenere several times in the past two years. Always enjoyed the food and service. The three lettice salad is the best appitizer I've had in years. I'd rate the fish and chicken entres as above average. My wife says the steak is the best in Acapulco, so we should be very happy with Carmenere, and we... More

This is, in general, a very good restaurant. We were there 5 times in February, and always had a great experience. I do know, however, that they miss the mark occasionally Service is good. If you like red meat, I would stick with either of the filet entrees, which are always delicious. The fish and seafood are generally perfect prepared.... More

Just returned from ACA and discovered this new jewel downtown. Food was excellent, service was very good and at a great price point. Steaks with either foie gras or cheese were to-die-for as well as the escargot. Great wine selection at a good price as well. Taken twice during a two week period by Benjamin Alaracon.

Great aptmosphere, nice service and very good menue and fair prices. Definitely put this one on your agenda. It is in... More
