"Comida muy buena, de Vilanova por ahora el mejor mexicano. Atención perfecta, solo pongo pero en que las mesas de dentro son de reja y como chorree el taco fuera de la bandeja te mojas el pantalón"

"Ubicado en la zona centro de la ciudad, en una de las calles con más comercio, encontramos el nuevo restaurante mexicano Carnal, bonita decoración, sencilla, pero muy agradable. Buen servicio, buenos productos, frescos, al principio nos costó un poquito entender la dinámica para pedir, cantidades, etc... pero después de unas risas con el camarero llegamos a buen puerto. La única pega, por así decirlo, el precio... lo encontramos un pelín subido. Recomendable probar."

"Excelente taqueria. Tacos, quesadillas y postres sublime. No te pierdas la cerveza michelada o las bebidas como agua de Jamaica o agua de tamarindo. Todo un descubrimiento, no te va a defraudar!!!"

"El menjar molt bo, la michelada també. El q va tenir més exit van ser els sopes i les postres ( 3 leches + cheesecake de cacauet). Tant que ni vaig arribar per les fotos. Carta no massa llarga però tot molt bo. Per posar un però, el local és petitet i vam estar una estona perque ens ubiquessin tot i haver reservat. També dir que ens van convidar a una canya per l'espera. Repetirem segur per rematar la carta sencera m"

"Fantastic, authentic Mexican. Sopes were properly done on a thick tortilla and everything else was ok point too. The nachos were house made from their tortillas and different than the bag kind."

"We are on holiday and wanted tacos. This was a great spot! We were pleasantly surprised by how great this place turned out! We got the chicken tinga tacos and the carnitas tacos. Highly recommend both! I got the Paloma and my wife got the margarita on the rocks. We ended up getting 4 margaritas because they were great! There wasn’t really an option for our son who is 2, but we were able to give him some tacos. It did not take away from our experience at all. I’m not sure id call it kid friendly, but our son was completely fine sitting in a regular chair and enjoyed the time. We don’t speak any Spanish, but the waiter was very accommodating. I highly recommend this place and plan to be back before the week is over."

"Restaurant mexicà a Vilanova i la Geltrú de molt bona qualitat. Te una bona terrassa i uns cambrers amables. El menjar es natural i fresc amb receptes típicament mexicanes las quesadilles brutals i el pastís de formatge espectacular. Totalment recomanable."
