About La Carreta

At La Carreta, the less-is-more philosophy doesn't apply—both locations feature Tolstoy-length menus brimming with classic Mexican staples that range from beef-tip-stuffed chalupas to carnitas with tender sliced pork and tomatillo sauce. There's no lack of specialty plates, either—there's seafood and grilled beef liver for the adventurous eater, and vegetarian fajitas with tomatoes, mushrooms, and bell peppers for the herbivore. The grills fire up at 6:30 a.m. at Dolly Parton location for breakfasts, and both spots provide sweet meal cappers by way of fried tortillas topped with cinnamon, honey, and butter.
