What our Clients Say
Authentic Mexican food in substantial, tasty portions with great service. Always something to take home for another meal.
We were so thrilled to finally try this place for the first time! My husband went for the Quesadilla Texan, and wow, it was absolutely scrumptious! The portion size was massive; we could have easily shared and still left satisfied! ...
It's hard for Mexican restaurants to stand out with so many of them out there. But MI Carreta is one that's risen to the top. There were so many fantastic options it was difficult to choose. Fresh and warm homemade chips with and delicious salsa were just the start, plus a full bar. I loved the decor, and the plated presentation was a feast for the eyes. If you love Mexican food and excellent service, MI Carreta is a step above. I'll definitely be back.
The food is always amazing and always correct. The service is great and I love how they dress in matching long sleeves and ties (even though I know it’s got to be miserably hot some days) because it shows they take pride and care about what they’re doing.
