" Unfortunately, my experience at El Carreton was not great. The food was mediocre, and I found the tacos to be lacking in flavor. The service was slow, and it seemed like the staff were overwhelmed despite the small crowd. I was truly hoping for a better meal based on the recommendations from friends. I might give them another chance in the future, but only if I'm really craving pupusas. " (*Curated Review*)

" I frequently visit El Carreton Tortilleria because they have the best homemade tortillas I've tasted in Dallas. Their pupusas are a delight, filled with fresh ingredients and seasoned perfectly. I also love their red salsa; it adds just the right amount of kick! The staff have always been friendly and accommodating. It’s not a fancy place, but what it lacks in atmosphere, it makes up for in flavor and authenticity. Highly recommend this spot to anyone craving real Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Carreton is my go-to spot for quick and tasty Mexican meals! I am a big fan of their tortas and can never resist ordering the delicious quesadillas too. Everything is made fresh, and the portions are generous for the price. The staff are attentive, making sure you're happy with your meal. The ambiance is simple but welcoming. I always leave satisfied, looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Carreton is a solid choice for anyone looking for a casual bite. They offer well-priced food and an authentic experience. I had the barbacoa tacos and was pleased with the flavor and portion size, too. The service could be improved, but it wasn’t awful. I’d suggest checking it out if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was initially excited to try El Carreton based on online reviews, but my experience fell short. The service was inattentive, and I had to wait a long time for my order. When the food arrived, the pupusas were soggy and lacked the flavor I expected. To make things worse, the manager wasn't accommodating when I expressed my concerns. It's disappointing because the location has a lot of potential. I'll consider trying again, but I have my doubts. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Carreton is a hidden gem! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with an inviting atmosphere. The homemade corn tortillas are to die for! I had the barbacoa tacos, and the meat was tender and seasoned to perfection. Plus, they serve generous portions, so I left feeling satisfied without breaking the bank. The staff were friendly, and the place was clean. I can't wait to return and try more of their offerings! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is fantastic! I can't believe I had never tried El Carreton before. Their pupusas are freshly made and packed with flavor. I also loved the quesadillas, bursting with cheese and served hot. The service was attentive, and I didn’t have to wait long. The atmosphere was cozy, making it a perfect place for a casual meal. I can’t wait to return and try their other offerings! " (*Curated Review*)
