La Carreta Taqueria — Restaurant in San Leandro

Normally, dont leave reviews when i get bad food as i just choose not to go back. So I have been here a handful of times in the past couple of months as it is close to where I work.

Was told by coworkers that they had bad experiences here, but i had yet to have one.

Fastfoward to MLK day that just passed went with my family to grab a bite on my lunch break. I got carniras and asada tacos. The carnitas were just extra crispy like they had been recooking the meat multiple times.

I literally was on the toilet 10xs before i left work and 8 more times when i got home throughout the night as i could not sleep due to the pain and unsettling feeling in my stomach. My stomach was fine before I got there.

I will not be going back ever again. The fact that you choose to keep reusing old meat is not a good sign. It looks like i am not the first to mention this. You know what you're serving and dont care.

Update: Seen what looked to be a dead Rat 🐀 sitting on their front steps. When I called the restaurant to inform them, they told "yeah ok whatever" like i was lying, and then im guessing when they finally saw it, they just i hear the lady whispering the just...

We eat here (or get to-go orders) at least once a week. So glad there’s a restaurant with this quality, variety, price range, and great service close to our house.

I love the tacos, regular or super. Burritos are awesome and rolled right. All the salsa options in the serve-yourself salsa bar are delicious. I’ve been getting the “meat plate” lately because I have a pregnancy-related dietary restriction, and I just love it.

Favorite meat choices are currently carnitas and carne asada. I enjoy the chicken too. I’ve had some epic shrimp super burritos here...it’s just all good. My husband’s favorite is the al pastor.

We pick up food from here for friends and family when they visit, and we’ve always been satisfied.

You can call ahead to place an order, and 9 times out of 10 they’ll pick up and take your order. The 10th time, they’ll let the phone ring because they’re crazy busy. Don’t worry - they’re open! They’re just managing demand as best they can.

They take credit cards and cash, and like I said, the service is great. This place is clean, well-stocked, and well-run by smart, efficient, friendly people. 5...

Their food is excellent the price is not that bad for the food I actually would not mind coming back here, I am a Lyft driver also I do have to have my lunch because I am a diabetic , and their food is not that greasy. UPDATE: I came here today at 8am jun/24/2018 And for 1 special traditional soup, And that is MENUDO best and perfect taste traditionally made. my father,his brothers, my little brother and myself know how to cook and I can say this is the best Mexican food restaurant I have ever been to. I give La Carreta * five star to their cooks and servers, and if they want to expand, well I would say they should, and to make sure the property has a lot of parking stalls. Don't sell out because that is a 1 time price in life, when you can expand and be successful. Any people that flew in to Oakland airport and is in need of breakfast, I say send your tastebuds and stomachs here at La Carreta for an homemade REAL...
