All things are nice about La Caretta in Lexington. The staff are friendly and smile a lot. We get seated quickly and our orders taken, and they check on you often. They offer a mild version of their salsa which is smooth but very tasty. We love the guacamole dip that has a hint of heat and wonderful small bits of tomatoes. What makes La Caretta stand out is the mouthwatering flavor of the beef. It has just the right spices and finely chopped onions. Portions are hearty and prices are reasonable. My husband’s favorite is the quesadilla with a big gooey gob of melted cheese inside and creamy cheese sauce poured over the top. There is a pleasant outdoor patio. La Caretta is very good about offering coupons in the local newspaper, which we appreciate.

Excellent Service, Excellent Food!

I love La Carreta in Lexington! My friend and I eat lunch there a couple times a week. They have great food, good service, & friendly staff.

Great Food, Excellent Service!

Our experience was very well. The staff was attentive to all needs, Food arrived still steaming. Portions were large enough without being wasteful. The fajitas could have used 3 tortillas instead of 2 but that is just because the steak and chicken was piled so high. Taste was great. the Chicken nachos are a must try with peppers and onions and shredded chicken and loads of cheese. The iguana margaritas are real good worth the money all way round. Our 5 year old was happy and we were able to have a enjoyable family dinner. Family of 3 all ate and mom had a margarita and we shared a Fried Ice cream for dessert, tip and all under 40 dollars and the service was great, the food was great and the atmosphere was great.
