Great authentic food , love the taste and hot sauce. Have eaten here for many years but haven't been recently and it's the exact same. Consistency is important to me. read more

The man at the counter (who I think is the owner) was very rude. I asked him what was in one of their sandwiches and instead of just helping me out he acted like I was stupid by saying "uh... bread..???". They are also cash only, which is inconvenient. The interaction when ordering pretty much killed my entire mood, customer service needs to be improved. read more

If I could give 0 starts to this location I WOULD. The waiters were nice but the old man in the front makes me not EVER want to return to this place. He has the ugliest attitude ever.I had never had an issue at ANY restaurant over ordering for my husband and my self. After the fact still continued to make comments under his breath. If he is the owner, you should know how to work in CUSTOMER SERVICE and if you don't like your job or cashiering/taking orders maybe take yourself to the back and let your NICE STAFF HANDLE IT because YOU SIR ARE NOT IT !!!!!!! read more

Run! Take your money elsewhere. The guy at the front taking orders ruins this place. I'm sure he's the owner, cause if he were an employee he'd surely be fired by now. When ordering food I was told that adding eggs to barbacoa and pico would make me sick. He acted like it was impossible to do. So I asked why I would get he said " well a lot people get sick:" Then he unwillingly changed his mind and said well if you get sick that's your fault. It was mind boggling how this guy was so rude and didn't want to take my order. read more

I saw this place accidentally. Looked like a hole in the wall, which means "it has to be good!" I wasn't disappointed. I had ordered a barbacoa torta. Then the man said, "cash only". I ran to an atm and the food was ready when I returned. Still hot. I was watching other people get their food for a brief moment and noticed they were still serving breakfast and it was well past noon. Good to know! My only suggestion, get an atm on site so people can use their card. I'm a cheapo and I don't like paying atm fees. I would still drive to save the $3 fee. Regarding the torta, the barbacoa was "clean" by that I mean no blobs of fat. It was also surprisingly dry. No grease dripping from the bag or the sandwich. This is typically an issue with barbacoa due to the nature of the cut of meat used (beef cheek). The bun was a really good bread. Seemed like it was made in house. I could be wrong. Maybe they buy them in bulk from a local bakery. It looked clean inside the waiting area. I would like to return to have a meal at the restaurant. That way I can check out restrooms. Oh and try their breakfast. read more

Really good huevos rancheros. We loved the salsa. Friendly staff. We will definitely go back.

Fast service The food was hot hot hot with warmth from being served immediately. We had ice cold coke from bottles. The waitress was very nice. Free salsa that bites back! Spicy and so good. Chips were fresh. Enchiladas is what you want to order!!! glad we found this spot. read more

Warning: not all of the staff wear masks while preparing and serving your food. Also, many patrons do not wear masks. The service was less than mediocre but the food is great and for a great price. I got a barbacoa torta, tastes great very basic lettuce tomato and avocado with barbacoa in between two buns.not what I was expecting but good nonetheless. read more

La Carreta Loncheria - a man standing in front of a stainless steel refrigerator - Mexican Near Me - Midland, Texas

Best Mexican food in west Texas!! Authentic Tacos like no other place in town. I've heard burgers are good but I can't get past the tacos

The food made us sick!! My husband commented that his meat tasted strange and asked me to taste it. The meat was doused in seasoning to cover the poor quality. Choosing this location ruined our day, as food poisioning does not allow for much activity. read more

Wow this place is awesome. I ordered the huevos' la Mexicana with bacon. The dish was actually spicy!! Had fresh cut jalapeños in the eggs and the retried beans were flavorful. The green salsa that comes with your meal is spicy and tangy and would make cardboard taste good. Fast and friendly. read more

Good place to eat breakfast! Their Home made tortillas are delicious. Lunch is amazing! Very authentic. Only Down fall is they only take cash. Hope they can make an upgrade soon. read more

Clown at the counter tried to overcharge me by $12, when I asked him to explain the total he flipped out and told me to leave. He's been doing stuff like this for years (ex: won't explain charges, won't give itemized receipts, never the same price even though you order the same thing).Food is just ok, not worth having to deal with a thief like that though. read more

Why am I the first to review this place? Firstly it is always packed. Do not attempt to go here with more than 4 people. You order at a counter then fight for seating. It is worth it. Best burritos I have had. My favorite is the Jalapeño meat and egg. Its fresh lightly scrambled egg and some chilie verde type meat with stewed jalepenos. It is amazing. read more

La Carreta Loncheria - This is the awesome la caretta shack. - Mexican Near Me - Midland, Texas

They have the best menudo only served on Saturdays it's usually gone by 11am,huevos rancheros are the best breakfast plate I've tasted they serve chips and salsa after 11am CASH ONLY!!! read more

This place is awsome. Been coming here since 2013. Always been consistent and the staff is really friendly. The people posting negative comments must be the type of people who think they deserve special treatment. Sorry folks but we're all the same. I highly recommend this establishment, you won't be disappointed. read more

"This place is out of bounds!", as someone use to say. The food is some of the best in town, authentic, fresh, and made to order. Service is on the ball and the price is definitely right. Just don't expect to eat on credit. Cash only. read more

La Carreta Loncheria - Huevos Rancheros with a side of chilaquiles - Mexican Near Me - Midland, Texas

Hole in the wall restaurant and not in a good way. It's a dirty mouse hole. My wife and I went for lunch and the old man at the front desk was extremely rude. No smile, hello or anything. The place is unclean, very hot (no central air) and cramped. Food was typical Mexican, nothing special. Will never go back. Plenty of other good, authentic Mexican food restraint options around Midland. Very disappointing visit. read more

Me and my husband love this place. Their ground beef tacos and burgers are delicious, the best in midland in my opinion.

Amazing food! Cash only! best taco shells in town without a doubt! Hot sauce can be very hot. One of my favorite places to go in Midland for sure! read more

We placed our here today during lunch to find out that they only accept cash. I gave the man behind the counter a $100 bill and he shook his head and tossed the bill back on the counter. He did not say sorry or anything. I guess they don't take cash... The place was dirty and hot anyways. No air conditioning. We walked out and will not be going back to La Carreta Loncheria. read more

Best Mexican food in town. I ordered the tacos, the shells are cooked fresh, not plastic ready-made shells. The hot sauce is spicy, great on the tacos. My husband got the #2, and the chile relleno was cooked perfect and not drowned in cheese like others do to cover up they do not know what they are doing. This is authentic mexican food. If your looking for Tex-Mex's bland, gravy style enchiladas...this is not your place. read more

Best spot in town! The brisket torta, taco meat and cheese burrito/quesadilla, and the asado burrito are all amazing. They also have the best hot sauce around. Highly recommend! Cash only read more

Nice people and great food. Our favorite place for Mexican food in Midland. The green beef enchiladas and the #1 combination plate are my very favorites. The flour tortillas are fresh made and the tacos shells aren't out of a box. Definitely the best in town for homemade real authentic food. Restaurant is always clean! read more
