“Food great, service great. Gratuity of automatic 20% extremely bad.Thats all your waitress will ever make even it she is a over the top waitress or waiter because this is a guarantee gratuity, even if they’re a bad waiter or waiters, this should never happen in any restaurant your waiter or waitress is only worth what they’re worth is. Very disappointed in this restaurant strictly because of their guaranteed gratuity for the waiter waitress no matter how poor they are, and I had a great waitress.“

“My first time here at La Carreta. I’m going to say that the quality of the food is good. I order a Taco loco Combo. The flavor of the Carne Asada was delicious and the Chorizo as well. The Carnitas need more flavor. The corn tortillas were amazing you can taste that are made in the tortillería no from package. On the rice flavor is good but on the refried Beans would be better if were refried with Lard not with Oil. But other that Food is really good and service.“
