La Carreta

"I got Shredded chicken chimichanga and my husband got the shrimp chimichanga 1st off the size of the chimichanga for both was literally the size of half of a tortilla the Shredded chicken was so dry I couldn't eat it even after smothering it with Guacamole and sour cream both of which I got extra of. My husband ate his shrimp chimichanga but ¼ of it was tortilla very little shrimp filling. It took forever to get our meal after placing our order and even longer to get the check when we were ready to leave. Needless to say we won't be back and wouldnt recommend eating here. I would have taken photos but we didn't bring our phones."

"EXCELLENT FOOD... BUT, if you're getting take out, CHECK EVERYTHING BEFORE YOU LEAVE. In my experience ( +/- 30 times/year since they opened) you have a 60% chance that ONE OR MORE THINGS WILL BE MISSING FROM YOUR TO-GO ORDER. If you get delivery, the same issue will happen. You have the same chance that one or more items will be missing from your order when you eat in but, since you are there, it is an easy fix. so...FOOD IS EXCELLENT but TAKE EVERYTHING OUT OF THE BAGS AND OPEN EACH AND EVERY ITEM BEFORE YOU DRIVE AWAY or someone back at home will be disappointed. *** my 3-star review for the "atmosphere" is not a 5 because the piped-in music is set TOO LOUD for my family. It may be wonderful for you... *** If you enjoy live/loud music, Thursday nights are a treat! :-)"

"Fun place!!! Had a live band. And food is always good. Nice little hangout with bar."

"My only reference for this restaurant chain is the one located in Hammond. The band is usually outside. If it’s inside, it’s at a level you can still hear your server and the people you’re sitting with. This location though… oh man. It’s chilly out so I knew the band would be indoors. It’s pretty quiet outside. Then you open the door and get blasted back into the parking lot with the noise. Can’t hear the hosts. Get seated. Can’t hear your server, who can’t do their job until a song ends because they also cannot hear. Left and my ears were ringing. I’m 27. My hearing is totally fine. Please, please lower the volume of the sound system. It made our experience miserable. Next time we come here, we will do curbside pickup. The food was amazing and our server was super!! But the loud music had us eating in silence and texting to chat to each other. :("

"Showed up to La Carreta on a Monday afternoon around lunch. Was seated fast and friendly with about 50% of the place filled. Monday is all day happy hour and it is one of the best I have found in Houma. 3$ for a 22 oz beer. Pretty solid. Complimentary chips and salsa. To be clear this is Mexican American, this isn’t authentic Mexican. But for what it is, it’s pretty dang good. Ordered a steak burrito with rice and beans. Good portions for the price. Friendly and prompt service. If I am ever in the area I would return. Can recommend for the good happy hour and solid steak burrito."
