I used to love this spot solely for happy hour margaritas and their salsa. I wouldn't recommend their food as it lack flavor. There are so many other spots for amazing Mexican dining and this just doesn't hit the spot. Ever since Covid, this restaurant went even more downhill. You need to order at a counter and they shout your number. What used to be a nice restaurant with a fun atmosphere turned into an In-N-Out for tacos. Time to raise your standards Norte! You aren't fooling the locals - just the tourists
Stopped here today to have a late lunch and once I tasted the salsa which was the worst I’ve ever had, it didn’t even taste like salsa it was more like a cheap canned tomato sauce. I started with the nachos which were dry and boring so I didn’t order anything else. When I got the bill I couldn’t believe they charged for the chips! I’ve never been charged for chips in a Mexican restaurant. They asked if we wanted more and we said yes, no indication of a charge for the chips. I will not be returning to this place.
This is one of the most authentic Carlsbad restaurants in town. It's been a staple since I was a kid, and hasn't once let me down. It's frequented by locals and has amazing chips and salsa. … More
