Food came out super fast - about 5 minutes. Service was really friendly. Cool vibes inside the gas station. Will be back to try more of the menu! My enchilada and tostada came out really yummy and it was the special of the day so only $9! read more

Wow! Definitely a hidden gem! The young woman at the front counter was super nice. I ordered the chicken Flautas with rice and beans. It was SO GOOD!! Their tortilla chips are house made. I wish I had taken a picture. On my next return, I will. Located inside the gas station with plenty of parking. I'll definitely be returning! read more

This is a family favorite for great real Mexican food that puts Take Out to a whole new level! You can call your order in, go to their store, can even fill you car up or pick up some beverages at the station. When you get your food it fresh & hot for you. They are friendly and quick to get your order to you so you can enjoy! The aroma will tickle your senses until you get home. Great portions and excellent tasting, tempts you to go back for more! read more

Eaten here many times over the last couple years since moving to the seven lakes area. I've tried several items on the menu, and have never been disappointed. That goes with the service as well, should you decide to dine in, where the ambience is a perfect fit for the amazing food! Cheers! read more

The customer service was amazing!! I forgot to ask for extra salsa and they threw it in there with the extra limes i had asked for!! Thanks for reading my mind guys lmaoo read more

This place is a hidden gem located inside the Lakewood Crossing 76 Gas Station. If you are like me and miss having a local joint for authentic Cali style Mexican food, this place is for you. Excellent menu and the food is fresh and hot every time. I have had the asada tacos and the asada burrito. I'm hooked on the burrito right now. Filled with rice, beans, pico, and meat...it's delicious and hits the spot! The green and red salsa's are great. Give them a try! read more

I love this place. We usually get takeout from here once a week or so, usually for lunch. I smile every time I see the Post Office clerk from across the road there with the same brilliant lunch idea. It happens frequently. :D I was super skeptical about the place when I moved up here. It's attached to a gas station, I was never quite sure when the hours were, and I didn't know if the food was going to be good. I had asked a local friend about restaurants around, since much of what we'd tried in the area was hit or miss, usually more miss than hit. He recommended La Carreta, we met for lunch so I could see what it was all about, and the rest is history. My family usually goes for burritos or enchiladas because they're delicious. We've transitioned to more of a plant-based diet, so we get the burritos without meat or the vegetarian burritos. But when we were eating meat, the meat options were great! The salsa that comes with the chips is delicious! The burritos are also super filling, so it's not always possible to eat both the burrito and the chips and salsa in one sitting. The chips are still good the next day! My only tiny complaint is that I'd sometimes like the veggies in the veggie burrito a little more well-done. But that's a "me" problem and not a problem with the food. I just like my peppers and onions to be overcooked, most folks don't. :) read more

My husband and I love coming here once a week for our tacos. The service is great and the food is good! Claudia is friendly and helpful. Everything we've tried has been good but I mostly come for the carnitas tacos. It's to the side of the gas station store so my husband goes in there too get a fountain drink as the restaurant only has bottled soda. The horchata is good too! They're closed on Sundays and Mondays. read more

Love this place , super fast , great food! they have the Best tacos & they're always fresh !!!

Excellent lunch, today's special was enchilada and tostada. Beef or chicken, with beans and rice, and chips and salsa for $7.50 That's a darn good price for a darn good meal. read more

Food is delicious!!! The service is even better. I order out every time but every one is so friendly and patient

Hidden gem! Very good Mexican food inside local gas station, very convenient and good prices!

This is, without a doubt my favorite restaurant. Everything is fresh, clean and very hometown. Caesar is there everyday except Sunday and puts his heart into every meal. I would recommend people drive from Seattle for this over any other Mexican food in Washington. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed! read more

If you want to pay with a credit card, that will be one dollar additional charge, if you want the tacos to be fish, that will be extra two dollar charge... why not just be honest about the cost, stop hiding behind extra hidden charges. Not okay. However, the chips are crisp and delicious, and the homemade salsa exquisite! read more

Carne Asada tacos are really good and also they have good salsa. Can't wait to try their enchiladas next. Very nice people that work here.

I can't imagine where the other reviewers that gave this place a high rating came from, but this is THE WORST place to eat. Where do I begin? First of all, the owner/cook has zero personality and is in no way pleasant. He doesn't smile or even seem half way grateful for your business. There was no one at the front desk ready to take orders, which has been the case every time I've ever gone here. And let me say that every time I've ordered food from here I've wished I didn't. This guy is so stingy with his food. This last time I ordered super nachos at almost $10, and my husband ordered a big burrito at almost $10. Neither of which were even half way decent. My so-called "super nachos" were a sad excuse for even basic nachos. I was lucky if I found a few strings of chicken, but even worse, there were hardly any beans or cheese to speak of. What I got was a load of soggy chips. My husband's burrito was mostly filled with rice with about the equivalent of a tablespoon worth of beef. Oh, but the topper for him was a long black hair he pulled out of the burrito. That was a real stomach turner. The entire meal was pathetic and I was pissed that we spent our hard earned money at this place... AGAIN!!! Why did we go there again? Well you'd think we would have learned our lesson after the first 5 times we wasted our money there, but it was late, we were hungry, and we didn't feel like driving an extra few miles to get something else. This is THE last time I'll ever give this guy our money. La Carreta is horrid and anyone that thinks it's good is a complete moron and has no clue what REAL Mexican food is like. It's not just bad as Mexican food, but no matter how you look at it, it's garbage. You'd think the owner would compensate by at least having a nice personality and thanking his customers, but nope, he doesn't. It more like you're a bother to him by making him cook. Just the look on his face was enough to make you walk right back out of the door and head someplace else. My husband just reminded me... They charge an extra dollar to use your debit or credit card. WHAT? As if their food isn't so outrageously overpriced in the first place? This is really just a sham to make us pay for HIS lack of business. I just can't imagine that he'll be in business much longer. Or he will but he'll be hanging by a thread and broke. No wonder he's always got a nasty look on his face. Anyway, save your money. You won't get good service or good food here. It's no wonder he has hardly any business. If it were my business, I'd be greeting people with a smile, making them feel welcome, treating them like family, thanking them for their business and asking them to please come back again soon. That's 50% of doing business. Even if you serve poor quality food, if your treat people really well and make them feel welcome, they'll want to come back. read more

Best little Mexican restaurant for takeout! Very nice staff. All food I've tried has been wonderful!

I was very surprised to see that there was no Yelp listing/rating prior to this. A mom and pop store located inside of the Lakewood Station Shell Station, they offer an expansive menu featuring soft burritos, small and large combinations, "Especialidades de La Carreta," seafood, kids' menu, and an array of side items. I got the enchilada and 1 taco for $5.99 to-go and the order was prepared fresh and took only about 5-10 minutes. Will visit this place again for sure! read more

Hands down the best Mexican you will ever eat! Their homemade salsas are fantastic and I have yet to have anything on their menu that I haven't loved! My favorites are their street tacos, carne asad, #1 burrito and their steak burrito. Everything is full of flavor, fresh and very affordable! Don't be sketched out that it's attached to a gas station! You honestly won't find any better Mexican around! read more

We stopped in on the way to a football game and can't say enough good things! Absolutely delicious and wonderful service. Don't skip it just because it is attached to a gas station.. This is fresh, authentic Mexican food at its best! read more

Overpriced menu. The cook looks grumpy. I came in for 4 tacos and its 11 bucks not to mention they charge a dollar for for debit or credit. No flavor on the asada I tried to put much sauce on it still no help. Although the amount of meat is good but it's just no flavor. read more

Just ate here today, ordered 2 fish tacos to go, delicious! I've lived in the area for 7 years, never went. This will become a regular stop. Highly recommend. read more

The best little Mexican cafe! The staff is always friendly and quick! Our is located in the gas station across from the Lutheran Church and Lakewood High School. read more

Food is a 9/10. My boyfriend is from california and he says its the best he's had since moving to washington!

Owner is incredibly rude, will curse you out, or even threaten you. As someone who cares about his small business he treats his customers awful. Would not recommend. read more

One star because they know better yet choose to ignore the facts! First, ya don't charge a dollar to let us use our debit cards! The only people that do that are greedy or losing money. You'd make more money if the food was at least comparable to other Mexican restaurants but it's not. Not in quality or price or quantity! Don't waste your time. There are plenty of other Mexican restaurants within 5 minutes of here. read more

No one at counter. To take our order. Waited 5 minutes and left. Menu looked good but will never know.

I am Latina and from Ca. I have lived in WA for 5 years. I look for good Mexican food every where I have tried all the local places....THIS IS THE BEST I HAVE HAD SINCE MOVING HERE! read more

My teen got the chicken tamal and I got fish tacos it's so yummy fresh ingredients no tartar and not deep fried yes yummy!!! Sorry no photo next time I'll be sure to take pictures... read more
