La Carreta Taqueria

0.3 mi

Mexican·$$

📍 1471 E Vernon Ave ↗

La Carreta Taqueria is an authentic South Central LA taqueria known for hand-made tortillas, well-seasoned carne asada, and generous portions at fair prices. Strong following among regulars and excellent food reviews, but serious food safety incidents (glass in burrito, fried cockroach) and variable consistency (quality fluctuates by cook/shift) create meaningful risk concerns. Recent cleanliness improvements post-remodel, but historical cleanliness lapses and isolated service rudeness temper the otherwise solid reputation.
