About La Carreta - Mexican Restaurant

La Carreta is a charming Mexican restaurant located in East Los Angeles. The cozy and clean interior is inviting, with plenty of seating available. The friendly service stands out, with staff eager to explain the menu and offer recommendations. The traditional Mexican dishes are delicious, featuring unique options like chilaquiles con nopales and camarones ranchero. The burrito rojo and burrito relleno are highly recommended, as are the tacos dorados. The Chorizo & Egg Burrito is excellent, with a generous size that sets it apart from other places. While the service may be a bit slow, the quality of the homemade food makes it worth the wait. The menudo is served every day and has a rich, tasty broth with perfectly cooked meat. La Carreta is a family-owned establishment that creates a welcoming atmosphere, whether dining in, taking out, or opting for delivery. Parking is available, and they even sell books and toys. Please note they are only open for breakfast and lunch, and do not serve alcohol.

Share your opinion about La Carreta - Mexican Restaurant

I love the food and I love huevos rancheros 🥰
Good food, good prices, no complaints
Good hole in the wall that has been around a very long time. Good place for a date, family, or older crowds looking for home cooking style food.
