This place is amazing. They are very quick with everything. I came in during a dinner rush they said 10 minute wait, I waited for maybe 5 minutes- amazing. I ordered my food and it came out in about 10 minutes and that during the dinner rush too. The service is amazing.

We had a great experience here. We stopped at this place after passing by and looking for something easy. We were pleasantly surprised at how nice the restaurant is inside. The salsa had a great taste and the service was attentive. My entire family enjoyed their meal. The shredded chicken has a great taste. Highly recommend the quesadillas! We will return!

Hands down 10/10, Caretta's is so good, the food is fresh and authentic. Ive been to the Ballein location twice now, and both times the food was amazing. The servers were nice and pleasant. Drinks were on point.

This restaraunt first impressed me with it's very clean and modern decor. The staff were attentive without being bothersome. Our meal was elevated from Mexican food to Mexican cuisine by an elegant presentation and spot on preparation. I had the Vegetsrian Chimichanga. Highly recommend this restaurant.

We had our first visit yesterday. It was fabulous! We were a party of 4 and we were are astounded by the flavors. The chicken in the burrito was the best chicken I’ve eaten in years and the fajita chicken was too. But here’s the thing, they were not the same chicken in the way they were seasoned or cooked. They seem to actually care for the food as well as the customers.

Go try them today. Or. And the prices are very good.

The new Carretas in Manchester is stylish with a wonderful atmosphere. The Fajitas Carretas were very good. My complaint is for being charged 3 extra dollars for extra lettuce. I asked about it when my bill was brought to the table and was told by my waitress (if I understood her correctly) that she would return the 3 dollars. Another server brought my change. If I had been given back the 3 dollars, I would have given it as the rest of my tip. This could have been handled better by the staff/manager.
