La Carreta - Lafayette

Cocktails could be a bit (a lot actually stronger :

I walked in this establishment as the amazing smell lured me in, sadly the service is very poor. I've sat here at the end of the bar Unacknowledged by anyone after 20 mins. I came in and stood at the greeters stand and was told to go to the bar for a to-go order, I did just that. As I was walking to the bar a couple walked in and they were seated, approximately 5 to 7 mins later a lady walked in alone and was seated at the bar next to me, on my left. So far the couple have received their drinks, chips and salsa and now their food. The Lady to my left at the bar has received chips and salsa and her drink. After very patiently sitting here for well over 35 mins I have been asked if someone was helping me. I replied no, I have not been helped. Now the Lady at the bar has been served her food. I still ha e nothing and the couple that came in after me are finishing up there meal as I sit here still no food and no service. If you want a place to eat that is loud, not well ventilated, and very poor service, this is the place for you, however 2 blocks away is an amazing Mexican restaurant with amazing food and superior service directly across from Parc San Sous, AGAVE, that I would highly recommend.. After 45 mins I was finally acknowledged. Wow and so disappointing! And as you can see they weren't that busy.

Great service, however, the food was very disappointing considering the great reviews we’ve read. Both my husband and I noticed that the chips tasted odd and felt as though they had definitely been fried in old grease. I ordered the Monterrey chicken and wasn’t able to eat much of my chicken, as it tasted a bit off. My husband tried it and made a comment that it tasted off as well, almost as if it were “sour”. After his comment, I didn’t feel comfortable eating anymore. I figured maybe we weren’t familiar with the taste or the seasoning until I woke up the next day with a nasty case of what I can’t help but believe is food poisoning.

Great Fajitas and Delicious Margaritas!! Great service!

This place is consistently good... I've probably tried half the menu items by now. Always fresh, always yummy. Service is great I once came in for lunch with only 30 mins on my lunch break and I was served and out the door with five mins to spare. I wish they had more authentic Mexican dishes but what can you expect from Tex Mex in a small Southern town. The dish pictured is barbacoa tacos delicious! The refried beans have a nice spicy kick to them.
