10/10I have been told that the Mexican quinine belongs to the best in the world, however that it requires a real Mexican to cook the food. For the first time. I had the opportunity to experience this at Carnal, and I fully concur with the statement. The food truly is delicious, and on top of that a very friendly and efficient service,

8.5/10The cocktails are great! Also, the guacamole with insects is so so good! The food itself was flavorful but they spice it too mild for my taste ( but they give an extra spicy sauce). Overall, I can totally recommend going here!

Carnal • Owner
Dear EFI, we are sorry to read that your experience at Carnal couldn’t meet your expectations. The idea of our menu is to gather friends and family around the table and share different starters, tacos, quesadillas and other proposals from our menu, taking a little trip through "our Mexico" :) However, for those who prefer to concentrate on a single dish, we suggest one of our main courses, with portions that may be more adjusted to what you were expecting. We appreciate your feedback which we will share internally in order to continue to improve our work. And we sincerely hope we can welcome you back in our restaurant and have a chance to change your mind. Kind regards.

10/10This spot was a great find for an impromptu overnight layover in Lison. The food was delicious, the atmosphere and music were great, and it was reasonably priced. You should definitely try their Tommy Margarita, and their tuna tartare tacos are a must-try. Just a heads up, ordering a bunch of starters will be enough unless you're really hungry. The portions were generous and filling.

9/10Great food. The tuna tartare is amazing. Be aware that every dish is spicy and so we had to order special non-spicy food for our toddler which the restaurant accommodated (but we always prefer to share which wasn't possible).
