La Carreta is a beloved local restaurant serving authentic Mexican cuisine. Their huevos con chorizo and menudo are standout dishes, with the menudo being praised as the best in town. The enchiladas are also delicious, and the fajita chicken burrito, while large in size, could use some improvements in presentation and flavor. Customers have been enjoying the restaurant's fresh, hot, and delicious food for decades.
The restaurant has a family-friendly atmosphere with a great staff who aim to please. The wait staff is wonderful and eager to provide excellent service. Recently, customers have enjoyed the fajita enchiladas, which were described as delicious and reminded one customer of their mother's Tex-Mex enchiladas. The queso, chips, and salsa were also praised as delicious.
However, some customers have noted that the building's hygiene could be improved, as the environment can attract better employees and provide proper stimuli. Additionally, there have been concerns about temperature control and shelf life calculations, which may have affected the food quality at one point before the restaurant became more well-known.
