About

Carolina's Mexican Food has a long established reputation of making some of the best Mexican Food in the Southwest. It is a business that began as a dream of Manuel and Carolina Valenzuela in the 1950's. In the early years the couple concentrated mostly on making home made tortillas, burritos, and tamales, selling them out of the back seat of the family car. Yet from that meager beginning, with a lot of hard work, their dream became a reality. Manuel and Carolina opened their first restaurant at 105 W. Hilton in the Spring of 1968. Carolina's first tortillera Elvira Castellanos de Abril, who happen to be the one who taught Carolina all her cooking skills, and was also her Mom. Elvira's pay consisted of a few dollars for Bingo, and a ride to the Bingo Hall, no contract needed, just a hug and a kiss. Carolina's son Edward became a permanent and important part of the business, he took the position of pot and pans, promoting Dad to head cashier. For the full story visit our website
