One of my favorite places to catch some good quick mexican.



But the staff has a bad way of not giving you the correct change. I eat there almost every week and can stop in for a quick, inexpensive lunch just about everyday. But 9 out of 10 times the server does not give me the right change.



Here it is, I'll get the #11 and a glass of water for lunch, the total for my bill is $7.56 which I'll pay with a $10 and go. A $2+ tip for a lunch that quick and good, I'm happy to leave. But pay with a $20 and you'll only get $12 back. Some people say "oh it's only change" well what if I decided to only pay $7 for my meal that cost $7.56?



If you are going to charge people for a meal you should respect your patrons and treat them honestly.



Like I said this has happened to me anytime I have waited for the change.



Management, if you don't provide change for your employees this might be your fault. I'd like to say you might not know this is going on but it happens so frequently that I can not be the only one to say something.



It's hard to stop visiting because you have a good product at a good price but how many people get short changed everyday. I'd like to continue visiting but if I stiffed the server everytime they ripped me off then how could I trust my food to not be tainted with when I visit.



What a shame.

Great place to eat

I have to say this place is AWESOME. The service is great! The food is great. For the price you pay you definitely get your money's worth. I would recommend this place to anyone. Great for the family as well.

Not impressed

Overall the food was ok - but prices are way to high and the service isn't any good. I realize this is a mexican restaurant - but that DOESN'T mean that the server shouldn't speak english! We won't be back - visit Chevy's on vets for REAL good mexican food!

Overall
Exceptionally Wonderful

This is the best restaurant ever. All of the staff are very friendly, and the service is super quick. All of the food is of excellent quality. I eat here at least once a week. I love margaritas, and the Top Shelf frozen margarita at Carreta's is the best I have ever had--and I have tried a great many margaritas in a lot of cities due to my travels with work. The live music adds to the wonderful atmosphere.

Overall
Terrible!

We've been for both lunch and dinner - and BOTH times the service and food were terrible! The staff is incompetent, the food VERY poor quality, an overall the experience is mediocre at best. I would suggest La Casa Gomez or Casa Garcia for much better food and much better prices - don't waste your time at this place!
