To get down to brass tacks, whilst the atmosphere and staff here are excellent and friendly, the food here - although really tasty and exquisite - doesn't come in regular portions.
After eating, you still feel hungry even after a main and a side. The real reason to come here is for the lunch menu, deals, and drinks.
Overall, a fantastic experience but be aware that the food is small for the price you pay; so come here for a special occasion.
P.S this place is dog friendly, not sure whether this means you have to go on the outside seating or not.
What an absolute gem!
It's been a long time since Cwmbran has had somewhere like Carro.
I'm back in Wales visiting family, I'm only back for a week, but I have been to Carro on two separate occasions.
The first night I had the Chicken, avocado and bacon salad... I don't know what the dressing was but it was delicious! Very well prepared, and worth every penny. Josh served me and my mum, he was very friendly and chatty, he's an asset to the restaurant.
The second night I cam with my cousins, and we shared two tapas trays. I will say, the tapas is quite small, and I recommend three dishes per person minimum... but wow! Patatas braves was outstanding, crispy on the outside, soft and almost like fondant potatoes. Beautiful! Everything was very flavourful, we couldn't get enough!
The decor is gorgeous and eclectic, the atmosphere is really warm and welcoming.
If I lived closer, I can imagine coming here to work at a table, having a spot of lunch, relaxing in the evening with friends and a glass of wine, or coming with my partner for a nice meal. It really is a great venue!
Good selection of food and drinks all reasonably priced, it was busy, had a short wait at the bar to order food and drinks which I had to do due to an allergy, food came quickly enough and was very nice. The staff were attentive but not over the top. Good place to go fir lunch, dinner or even just a drink. Will be returning soon.
