La Carreta

All things are nice about La Caretta in Lexington. The staff are friendly and smile a lot. We get seated quickly and our orders taken, and they check on you often. They offer a mild version of their salsa which is smooth but very tasty. We love the guacamole dip that has a hint of heat and wonderful small bits of tomatoes. What makes La Caretta stand out is the mouthwatering flavor of the beef. It has just the right spices and finely chopped onions. Portions are hearty and prices are reasonable. My husband’s favorite is the quesadilla with a big gooey gob of melted cheese inside and creamy cheese sauce poured over the top. There is a pleasant outdoor patio. La Caretta is very good about offering coupons in the local newspaper, which we appreciate.

I love La Carreta in Lexington! My friend and I eat lunch there a couple times a week. They have great food, good service, & friendly staff.
