“ Fun place for family dinner. Great food, Great Prices, Impeccable team service. The only thing that holds this place back is that they need to remodel it to modernize the place. It's old. Old chairs, old booths, old everything, and while it's nostalgic, it just looks awful. Not to mention the down the old stairs to the cave of hidden bathrooms in the bottom middle of this circular dining room that is honestly just kind of terrifying. It's a loud, busy place, so dine early or later on if you want to avoid young children and infants screaming and crying because it's a family style place but still good for date night if you plan it right. Plenty of parking. Handicap Accessible, and serves alcohol. La Carreta is my go to spot because I have NEVER been disappointed with the staff or food. On point, consistent, fast, and affordable. If I had to vote for an "all around" best- They would be first every time. If you're from out of town, be sure you eat here before you leave or you'll miss out on one of this areas best places to eat. ”

“ My husband and family come to dinner at least twice a week. We love La Carreta! ”

- Diana McLimans -

“ I really enjoyed this place! We found this restaurant on our way to the DC area, choosing it based on its schedule, ratings, and location—and it turned out to be an even better choice than we expected. We arrived around 8 PM to a packed house and waited about 20 minutes. While there’s no designated waiting area, which made the entrance a bit crowded, the experience was well worth it. Once seated, our order was taken quickly, and the service was excellent. The food was absolutely amazing! I requested more lime for my tacos, and the waiter definitely understood the assignment, he was super helpful and made sure I had plenty! Plus, the décor added a nice touch to the atmosphere. M ”

“ Charming round restaurant with great food service and desserts. Only thing I didn't enjoy was that there was too much cheese on the seafood rice bowl. ”
