I have enjoyed La Carreta since 1978. Try the tostada Ala Carreta. I like it with an entire bowl of their fresh salsa. Great family restaurant.
Very good Mexican restaurant with great chips and salsa. Staff was over the top friendly and helpful. Food was excellent.
Slooooooooowwwwwww. They need more workers post covid.
