Though customer service can be hit or miss—with some reporting inattentive staff—the overall dining experience remains enjoyable with decent food quality. While drinks may have long wait times, many guests rave about the flavorful margaritas and complimentary nachos. The hibachi grill also garners praise for its entertaining chefs and tasty ramen. Despite some inconsistency in food presentation and price hikes, loyal diners continue to appreciate the restaurant's vibrant ambiance and delicious offerings.
I probably been here years ago, but before they moved to this spot. It's has a festive colorful decor. Happy vibes! Called for reservations and they literally had the table prepared before we arrived. The hostess was pleasant and the server wS really nice, smiled tge entire time. Checked on us throughout the entire time. It was 7 of us and she didn't miss a beat. The food was fresh and really tasty. The fresh seasoning was a plus. The food didn't take long at all. It was hot also, to say they served it all at the same time. Husband ordered the fried ice cream but canceled it and it still came out. They just let him keep it. The restaurant was clean. The restroom was so so, it needed a little attention, but it wasn't grossed out. I think that was the mgr that came to the table and she was really pleasant. We will definitely go eat here again.
We love this Mexican restaurant located on the north shore! The margaritas are fantastic, the food is delicious, and the atmosphere is peaceful.
The food here is good. It's great for cinco de mayo. Live music good food. Gotta love it
I went to Carreta's to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. There was a fantastic live band outside and a great atmosphere. The restaurant was very busy and family-friendly, with wifi available. Parking was difficult due to the large crowd. There were only two bartenders serving a long line of customers, resulting in a 30-minute wait for a cocktail. The Margarita with Patron tequila was worth the wait. I put my name on the table list and was told it would be an hour wait, but I didn't mind as I enjoyed the music and my drink. I was seated after an hour and had a clean table with a friendly waitress. The free nachos and dip were a nice touch. I ordered a beef Chimichanga with refried beans and rice, but was disappointed in the presentation and taste - the Chimichanga was not crispy and the beans were watery. The rice was good, but the sour cream and guacamole were left untouched. Despite the busy Cinco de Mayo crowd, I believe Carreta's can improve their food quality. I will give them another try in the future and update my review.
The food was excellent! The waitress was very friendly and efficient. However, I thought the price for a small Margarita was a bit too high at $8.95 for 6 to 8oz. It has been a while since I last dined here, and it seems like prices have gone up due to inflation.
