Usually the service is excellent. Tonight it was not.First of all a gentleman in a red shirt with a bad upper right tooth came to take our drink orders. He disappeared and never came back.Another fella came over and took our orders. My sister ordered a spinach quesadilla but they brought her a spinach enchilada. The waiter then came over to the table and proceeded to tell us that she ordered a spinach enchilada. She did not. She ordered a spinach quesadilla.Even if she would have ordered incorrectly he should have absorbed the blame if he was a good waiter. But it doesn't matter because she didn't order incorrectly. She ordered a spinach quesadilla.He got all huffy from that point on. The service was terrible but the food was very good.Needless to say, we did not leave a tip and that ticked off the cashier. She was very rude to us after that as well.We will not be going back there even though we've been patronizing that place for 10 years.

Hands down the BEST authentic Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. The service was quick and friendly, even with a wait line out of the door. The food was mouthwateringly amazing, and fresh. I highly recommend this place!

Your basic Mexican food. They get the chips on the table within one minute of you sitting down. Large selection of tequilas.

One of the best Mexican restaurants in all of St. Louis. I've tried a variety of menu items, all great, but their Fajitas are amazing!

The line can be long and service can be iffy at times depending on how busy they are.Parking: Bars and other stores next to it, if you go during slow times you can usually find a spot easily but during dinner rush or later with the bar close by parking can be difficult.Kid-friendliness: I see kids here all the time, and we bring our kids there, too.

So good. Love their salsa and margaritas- chicken is always great quality. Quick with food too!
Good, standard Mexican food. The chicken is flavored well as my date and I both commented on how good it was.

food tasted ok but came out cold. The "gold" margarita was terrible. Tasted like poor quality sweet and sour mix and extremely sweet. We probably wont return.

You can't go wrong with La Carreta! The food atmosphere and service are all fantastic. Try the fajitas or the pollo con mole and you can't go wrong. Love this place!
