La Carretta in Timberlake is an outstanding dining destination that never disappoints! From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by a vibrant and friendly atmosphere that sets the stage for a fantastic meal. The decor is colorful and festive, creating an authentic Mexican dining experience.

The menu is extensive and offers a wide range of delicious Mexican dishes. Every meal I've had here has been incredibly flavorful and freshly prepared. The fajitas are sizzling and full of flavor, the enchiladas are rich and satisfying, and the guacamole is some of the best I've ever had. Portions are generous, and the presentation is always on point.

The staff at La Carretta is top-notch. They are always attentive, courteous, and eager to ensure you have an excellent dining experience. Whether you're dining in or taking out, the service is consistently efficient and friendly. They also do a great job with special requests and dietary accommodations.

One of the standout features of La Carretta is their commitment to quality and authenticity. Every visit feels like a culinary trip to Mexico, and the lively atmosphere makes it perfect for family gatherings, date nights, or catching up with friends.

Overall, La Carretta in Timberlake is a gem of a restaurant that I highly recommend to anyone looking for delicious Mexican cuisine and a welcoming dining experience. Five stars...

It seems like the Timberlake La Caretta is off their game, or maybe under new management, because several things surprised me today. It was much harder than normal to get our waiter or any waiter's attention; I wasn't asked if I wanted salad dressing and none came with it, so when I finally successfully flagged someone down to request that, I also noticed that it was unusual that I was brought an entire store-bought bottle of dressing to my table rather than a small bowl with dressing in it; the toilet handle in the bathroom stall that I went to was about to fall off and it was almost not able to be flushed because of that; and the decorative cart with barrels outside broke when a man touched them, and I witnessed a couple of men trying to very hard to get the barrels back on the cart (which they soon did), but it could seriously injure the next passerby to touch it.

Maybe I just had a new waiter who didn't know the ropes very well. The bathrooms are usually pretty clean, and although I have seen them looking gross on occasion, they've never been broken like today. I think I'll just stick to the Wards Road location because I've never had any issues there, and the food is pretty much just as great at any of...

Great atmosphere here it is very authentic with good staff. For the most part out of the many times I have been here the food is great and very affordable. It is the best mexican food you can get in town. I have been in Lynchburg for three years now and have yet to find a better mexican restaurant here. When I think of a good place to get mexican food this is the place I think of. Even when they are packed, which is most of the time, they seem to have room for more people. Only complaint is how busy they stay, but that is a good issue to have and has not kept me from waiting. Of the many times I have been there they are usually packed but I have only had to wait a few times and they were for a short amount of time. I highly recommend getting the chicken talavera here. By far the best dish and you can not find it anywhere else. Great blend of cheese, rice, and grilled chicken. It is to die for. I also prefer this location to the wards road location due to the amount of room it has. It also seems to have better tasting food in my opinion than the...

I ordered the steak and cheese plate without Mushrooms because I'm allergic to them they brought me a plate with mushrooms on it .then brought me another one and after eating half of it I found mushrooms on one side of the plate. I took two pieces of mushrooms out of my mouth. When I said something to them the man said so what do you want me to do about it? Umm not try and kill me after I told the girl 3 times no mushrooms im allergic to them.

Awesome place for good food and drink. This places atmosphere is as good as the food is. And the food is good. We went here for lunch and had a great time and meal. The food is really tasty. The service is good. Saw a guy make fresh guacamole table side for another couple. Awesome. The price to quantity and quality is on point. The restaurant decor is great. Definitely going back when I'm in town. Try them out!
