La Carreta is a cozy spot for casual Mexican dining. The vibrant salsa bar adds a fun touch, and the menu is impressively varied, featuring options for vegans too! I enjoyed the fried chimichanga with refried beans - tasty but not particularly unique. Service was attentive, which made the experience pleasant. My only quibble? A touch more salt would elevate the flavors! Overall, it’s a solid choice for a quick bite or a laid-back dinner. Worth a visit! 🌮
