Food left an empty satisfaction bag, it was poor quality of meat, tough and tasteless. Not what I remember La Carreta for.
Service was corteous. The hall was almost 80% empty, I guess it's the reason our waiter kept coming back to our table, boredom

We’ve been going here for a long time when my mother was alive we would go there every time we went to see her but lately there food has gone down hill it’s not as good as it used to be I don’t know if they’ve changed cooks or what but my wife had arrows con pollo and I had picadillo with black beans and white rice with plantains and it didn’t taste right
