About Carlsbad Tavern New Mexican Grub
The people and staff responsible for Carlsbad's long-standing popularity are an accommodating bunch with a tendency for word play (Carlsbad Tavern, Guano Canal, Early Bat Special, etc.) and exquisite, knowledgeable service. Upon entering, guests can choose the formal dining area or the bar and lounge that leads out to the expansive, bi-leveled patio. Inside, copper and tin fixtures and images of the old southwest are subtly illuminated in low red and yellow lighting, while outside the theme is carried out by adobe hearths and a wooden walkway suspended over the canal.
The menu, titled the Carlsbad Daily Guano, is famous for its adherence to the hotness that is demanded by those seeking truly authentic southwestern food. Their expectations are indulged with flare and humor: The Habanero Cheeseburger (lots of freshly ground habanero chile, mixed with lean ground beef, grilled and topped with melted jalapeno jack cheese) is prefaced with the warning, "This burger may cause temporary blindness or loss of hearing;" for those with trivia tendencies, the menu contains a "Chile Heat Scale" that lists the descending rankings of chile 'hotness'... as measured by what unit? "What are Scoville units, Alex?"
Anyone can tell you anything good about a restaurant, but history and reputation are usually more reliable indicators of quality than word of mouth and Carlsbad Tavern has been operating for over 13 years.

Macayo Mexican Restaurants
MexicanA diner from Phoenix, AZ Nov 1, 2009
The locals love it, they must love BLAND food. I had steak tacos. Three measly strips on a tortilla with nothing else inside came on my plate. No taste to the food and overpriced. You are better off cooking at home or go

We booked a large b-day party because they said they could accommodate us. We arrived, they only had 3 people on staff for a party of 50. Service was slow, I didn't even bother to order any food. Next week I check my ban
