Still Annoyed
on Citysearch Oct 11, 2009I went to this establishment two years ago for a birthday celebration and I won't go into those details but let's just say the staff seemed to make a point to be rude. No, we were not drunk or obnoxious. It started from the... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 17, 2008My husband and I lived just a few blocks away when we were first married so we would walk over when we wanted to go. I love all the food but the potato skins with bacon appetizer is what keeps me coming back the most. We live... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 01, 2008My wife, son and I went to La Carreta and experienced the worst service of any establishment. My wife and I ordered Fajitas for Two, and my son wanted a cheese burger with catchup only. First off, my wifes drink had a fly... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 28, 2008These ratings are old, so I have weigh in. Our family has been going to La Caretta at McLoughlin & Holgate for the last couple years, and the service is always friendly and prompt, and the food is great. Contrary to an... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 25, 2007It used to be that there was a waiting line to be seated at this restaurant, but I have noticed over the past couple years that anytime we have arrived there is no longer a wait time. The service has steadily declined in... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 05, 2007We went to this restaurant last night and the service was horrible. It took the waitress 15 minutes to take our drink order, then another 10 to get us our drinks. She told us she would be right back to take our order and... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 22, 2006I loved the place! Their carne asada is the best I've had outside of Latin America and the service was very very good. They had a great trio of guys playing the guitar and they really made it a special evening (I think they... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 11, 2006For cheap american-style mexican food this place is very good. Food is fairly decent, atmosphere is entertaining if a bit loud, prices are right, good menu and the place is big enough that I have always been seated... (more)

on Judys Book Oct 07, 2005I had heard wonderful things about La Carreta from people for years. I finally tried it and I don't think the food lived up to the hype. The food wasn't bad, but it wasn't as good as other Mexican restaurants I have tried.... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 06, 2004Whoever wrote the other review went to the wrong La Carreta. There's another one on Burnside in Gresham that has great food. Everything is fresh when they cook it they even make their own tortillas, corn chips, and... (more)
