We ordered the chicken quesadilla, chicken tacos, al pastor tacos, and brisket tacos. We were starving when we ordered so I'm glad that the service wasn't too long, we probably waited like 10 min. Each plate comes with 4 tacos Chicken quesadilla: 10/10, lots of chicken and cheese and the tortilla was fried to perfection! It tasted like rotisserie chicken and it was flavorful on its own. Chicken tacos: 8/10, this was okay, with the added salsa and onions it tasted really good but not that great on its own. Al pastor tacos: 10/10, the steak was so flavorful and wasn't too tough or chewy. Brisket tacos: 10/10, the brisket had the best smokey taste. It was addicting! Plus when paired with the onions and salsa?? A masterpiece. All the tacos were made with flour tortillas (which I love!) They are hands down the best street tacos I've tried so far and I would definitely recommend this place for anyone in the area. With the prices, you really can't beat it! read more

La Carreta - Brisket tacos - Food Trucks Near Me - Las Cruces, New Mexico

A nice food truck with fair prices and good customer service. Burrito came out in a timely manner and was tasty.

This is a large, clean, newer truck, parked in a house driveway off of Solano. So parking is limited, but since they usually open at 5pm, one could park at one of the businesses on either side, if they are closed. This truck is very well managed and has a large menu. Decent food at a decent price, for the most part. Had the chile relleno plate. The portions were kinda small, the rellenos were just plain, not smothered. The prices were pretty decent at $9, for the combo plates, but exorbitant for nachos ($13)? But after getting the meal, it all made sense (small portions). Still, these days, I was happy to get a combo for $9. And we had just passed on another truck that that had similar for $12. We kept driving till we found this one. The rice was good, the frijoles refritos were good. The rellenos were ok, but super greasy. We will def be back to try some of the other food. Overall, was good. Really want to try those "Bel Air" nachos! :D read more

La Carreta - Menu - Food Trucks Near Me - Las Cruces, New Mexico

This food truck is easy to spot off Solano. There's parking on the other side of it, since the businesses seem to be closed. I got the birria, which was a very good value for money - 4 decent sized ones, plus additional sauces and an onion/cilantro mix for $13.50. The birria was good, the consome had good flavor as well. Great place to get good food. read more

Delicious and fresh! We got the beef (4) flautas plate (comes with rice, refried beans topped with cheese, a slice of lime, chopped iceberg and tomatoes). The provided sauces were a green salsa, a red one, sour cream and a very tasty, mildly spicy guacamole. $9.50 for beef, $8.50 for chicken. Best beef flautas I've had in a very, very long time. They don't skimp on the meat filling. I got their taco birria plate (4 cheese and meat filled tacos, a side of consomé, lime, red hot sauce, chopped onion & a side of spicy guacamole). $10. Very tasty! Their horchata and agua de melon were good too - not super sweet(sugary) like many other places. Last but not least, tres leches cake with strawberries. My kids scarfed it down before I could try it. They said it was good, very similar to the one from Chuy's (best one I've had). Unfortunately, we were just passing through town and won't be able to eat here anytime soon. I highly recommend you give them a try. P.s. just want to add that none of the food looked, felt or tasted greasy. Everything was really fresh (just as they advertise). read more

See all

This truck has a proper setup with great tacos. The desserts are also amazing. I'll be coming back every time I visit Las Cruces ;)

Overrated meat is super dry. If you ask for Carne Asada, do not expect something succulent. Expect some dry meat like jerky. Make sure you ask for salsa many times they failed to add salsa to our meals so disappointed. read more

Outstanding food! Friendly service. My gf just moved here from Chicago so we have been trying different places to eat at and some of the places were just awful. So we decided to try a local food truck and we were not disappointed! The food was absolutely delicious! My friend had carne asada sopes and I had carne asada tacos with rice and beans. It was so fresh and yummy we were moaning while eating...lol. We will definitely continue to spread the word and repeat over and over again. read more

Always a banger. I usually order the Birria tacos or the carne asada burrito. The workers are super nice and the food is always made to order. read more

Carne asada torta and al pastor tacos. Excellent! The flavor of the meats is incredible!

My friend took me here because he says it reminds him of the food in Juarez. This place does not disappoint! I ordered the plate of tacos al pastor (which includes a guac salsa, an orange sauce, rice, and beans), and oh my, they were incredible! The rice was soft, fluffy, and flavorful. The beans were creamy, flavorful, and were neither too thick nor too soupy. Just the rice and beans are enough to make me come back, but then you add in the tacos - magnificent. The meat was tender, juicy, and the spices were excellent. Overall, would highly recommend. Also, you should order the limon drink as it's quite possibly one of the tastiest drinks I've ever had! read more
