La Carreta Mexican Restaurant

We were driving through and felt that they would provide a wonderful breakfast. My GF and I are seasoned at ordering the same Mexican plate wherever we go, mainly to compare but also because it's what we like and it's usually safe.I chose the Ala Mexicana which was absolutely wonderful and came with refried beans, soft potatoes, three tortillas, and choice of two sausage patties or two strips of bacon. Delicious. A bit overpriced since the same dish less sausage or bacon in Houston is between $3.50 and $4.50My GF ordered the Migas which she loves wherever she orders it, but for some reason this one that they brought us seemed to have a coating or layer of nasty oil. It was gross and we sent it back. We told them the Ala Mexicana was awesome but the lady that was the owner was mean and nasty and said her food is never bad. She even said she would fire the cook but then became defensive. Thankfully the cashier calmed her down and got us a replacement but switched it to the Ala Mexicana. My GF was pleased with the new order. They are extremely busy with a lot of customers. I don't expect perfection but the owner need not be defensive. It happens and sometimes people don't complain or send things back. We rarely send food back. We order both dishes a lot so we know what to expect.I wasn't aware of the buffet, so if I were to go back, I would try the buffet. Whatever you do, don't order the Migas and stay away from their cheese.

This place was awesome! Hand made tortillas! Caldo de Rez! Barbacoa! Great service! Great place! Will definitely be back!

It's amazing that this place is still in business. Ordered nachos, a disgusting mash of canned chili and fake cheese sauce. I didn't think something so simple could turn out so horrible. Incredibly weak coffee. Oh and before I go, they charge for to-go hot sauce. Who in the world does that?

Stopped here on my way out of town and glad I did. We got tacos and they were very good. Homemade flour tortillas and great salsas. They had a green salsa that was warm and was told it was jalapeños which shocked me because it was so good. I recommend this place if you are ever in Luling!

I don't know why this place has 3 stars , it should be 6 stars. I stopped by on my way to San Marcos and let me tell you those were the softest flour tortillas ever. I got the bean and bacon breakfast tacos and eggs with nopalitos they were so good I ran back and ordered some more to go.

Best carne guisada. Taco grande with beef, bean, and cheese. Just DO IT! I have been eating here my whole life and I've never gotten anything bad. Their salsa is the best salsa I've ever had. I have to get the jug of salsa to take back home to live off of every month or so. 10/10 would recommend.

For more than 2 decades this place has been a staple of my life. Been there hundreds of times and am looking forward to it again very... very... soon.Have those cheese enchiladas ready, and some bacon egg and cheese tacos as well!

Love the breakfast tacos. Recommend the combination that has everything in it. Tortillas are fresh and homemade.

Ate lunch their today and there was a hair in my taco. The employees are always unhappy and rude. Not a good place to eat, it's pretty shitty.

My family and I just ate here, and poor service I don't think I will back for a visit an time soonMy rice was burnt, they got my order wrong. The tortilla where hard very disappointed.
