What Kimberly Romaguera likes about Taqueria El Carreton:
Even though we're from out of town, my husband and I love to travel into Reading to dine out here on date night! Their menudo is absolutely delicious (takes me back to Mexico! , and their portion sizes are abundant. We haven't found anything we haven't liked so far! It helps if you speak spanish, but since my husband and I do not, we are grateful that they have someone on staff who can always help us : View all feedback. What Davi Maia doesn't like about Taqueria El Carreton:
Today, I ordered food from this restaurant and usually it is really good. However, today I found a mistake in my rice. It was not burnt, but there were peaches in it which I do not like. Because of this, we will not be returning to this restaurant. View all feedback.

The food is great, service is slow. A few weeks ago they stopped taking credit cards, but only on week days....very strange and inconvenient.

Despite some negative reviews on service and pricing, the restaurant has garnered praise for its amazing food and generous portion sizes. The menu is recommended for those on a diet and lovers of authentic tacos, particularly the Harracha's tacos. However, there were complaints about the poor service, including mistakes in orders and slow service. Additionally, the unreasonable prices and insistence on cash-only payment may deter some patrons. Despite these drawbacks, the restaurant received high praise for its delicious menudo and overall great dining experience, making it a popular choice for those seeking authentic Mexican cuisine.
