Carreta's Grill - Metairie

Had the chicken fajitas. no seasoning and chicken was dry... the rest of the meal was great.

First time ordering takeout from here. I must say it was phenomenal. Nice size portions, showed up piping hot and tasted great. This is a must try!!!

We love this Carreta's and eat here at least once every 2 months. Food is delicious. Service is friendly and attentive. Tonight I was HIGHLY disappointed that they had a CC Service Charge on our bill and we DIDN'T use a Credit Card. I understand the fee IF you use your card BUT DONT JUST ADD IT TO EVERY BILL!!!

Let me preface it that's its 3.5 and not 4 stars due to service. At end on lunch time a few days before Christmas...sat in bar area. Server was sweet and kind...loved her but she was never around. If I have to leave the table not once but twice to find someone...ugh. But the food was delicious. I had the Carreta's special and Chile Ranchero with chicken. Chicken was thin and tasty, not too salty and perfect seasoning. The pepper wasn't too over cooked the cheese could have been melted more. Delicious dish. Mine was yummy!! Will come back for sure when I in neighborhood. FYI have to order chips and salsa and the chips here hot amd salsa tasty.

Nestled in the diverse culinary landscape of New Orleans' suburbs, Carreta's Grill in Metairie emerges as a standout in Mexican cuisine. Located on Veteran's Boulevard, this restaurant has an immediate inviting ambience. The restaurant not only meets but exceeds expectations, offering a delightful dining experience. A highlight of my visit was the exceptional service; the staff was remarkably attentive, seamlessly anticipating our needs and contributing to a memorable experience. The menu impressed as well, especially with the chicken fajitas. These fajitas, not only reasonably priced, also boasted a delicious taste that was truly enjoyable. A minor note, the chicken fajitas could benefit from a bit more seasoning to enhance their flavor, and the portion of chicken also lacked. However, the Queso was an absolute triumph, adding a rich and satisfying element to the meal. In summary, Carreta's Grill provides an excellent dining experience, leaving me eagerly anticipating my next visit.
