    a table full of mexican food
    Chrissy T.

    What a great place! It's located right by my parents house. Parking was easily accessible. Food was great. Large portions for a reasonable price. Chips didn't seem homemade thought but everything else was delicious and flavorful. It was well decorated with Christmas decor. Had a strong Christmas scent throughout the whole place. Very nice staff. Clean bathrooms. Location seems super brand new on the inside still. Overall a fantastic place to visit!

    Best Horchata

    The food was really good. The establishment looked very clean. Horchata was the best one I've had. The shrimp ceviche was also really good and fresh

    Love La Carreta in Merrillville, so very excited to see one open closer to my mom's house.

    Saturday Night we came in had a DJ. Music was loud. Atmosphere reminds me of a chipotle, with just…read moretable and chairs. Bright colors and an area for those who want photo op by restrooms. Restaurant only had one large party and another couple. No wait time. Waitress couldn't hear our order due to loud music. We asked for a Miller Light received a Modelo. Also, asked for double rice no beans and received fries. Asked water with lemon no lemon. That's how loud music was. Drinks: Draft Modelo (fine) Classic Margarita for $11 it was a very small glass and was the worse I ever tasted. Definitely premix margarita. They don't serve traditional tortilla chips with salsa. Serve hard shell tortillas called tostadas with a very little cup of ceviche, green chili sauce and bowl of red salsa. (different but nothing special or outstanding) Appetizer: Calamari nothing outstanding Main Dish: Torta w/ fries (had better) tho price is reasonable Carne Asada asked for double rice received fries. Finally got rice and it was dry like it was from bottom of pot. Asked for skirt steak to be medium it was well. Skirt steak was thick and not tenderized like other restaurants carne asadas. Plate had lettuce and diced tomatoes. Corn tortillas were dry. Steak was good in all even though it is not the way I am use to. Some items on menu are pricey. Plates of food look nothing like pictures online unfortunately. I don't recommend as there are plenty over abundantly other better Mexican Restaurants around the area.

    One word..... Flavor! I lied, second word... Wow! The chips and salsa are fresh and really good…read more Everything is rich with flavor but not over powering. Think upscale Mexican. Very modern taste in decor. Modern Mexican music. A little bland ambiance compared to traditional Mexican restaurants but nice and clean. When we went the service was a bit slow. Very good though and very nice. Just short on staff. Overall very good. A little pricy, but good.
