After the fact we were raving about this place with others who had been but they didn't have the same experience and that's unfortunate. Our waiter was awesome, very friendly too. We went on a Thursday night and it was so packed but granted it's in a small town but I can understand also because the food was so good. My bf had a large strawberry margarita and I had a small peach. We liked the peach better as it was more flavorful. I had the cheese enchilada meal that came with rice and beans. Simple yet so good! My bf had the Mexican plate that came with a taco, an enchilada, chili con carne, rice, and beans. So much for such a great price. From the first bite we were both very happy. Needless to say we won't mind making the drive and going back! Can't wait.

We found Las Carretas Mexican Restaurant in Gainesville through a last-minute Facebook Valentine's…read moreDay event, and WOW what a surprise! The event said no reservations needed, so we showed up not realizing how popular it would be. The place was PACKED with a line out the door! Even so, we only waited about 25 minutes for a table on Valentine's Day, which honestly wasn't bad at all considering the crowd. We went specifically for their Valentine's special: 2 margaritas, fajitas for two, and dessert, such a great deal! The margaritas were delicious. We ordered the Rita sampler and the blueberry margarita tasted like blueberry pie, so fresh, organic, and absolutely yummy. We also ordered homemade guacamole, which was delectable, paired with fresh, crispy homemade chips. Our fajitas included steak, pork, chicken, and shrimp, and everything was cooked to perfection. The flavors were incredible!!! And can we talk about the restaurant itself? It's HUGE! It felt like one of those multi-level Times Square NYC restaurants, with multiple floors and even outside patio seating. It was like a magic trick walking through it! Our waitress, Lia, was fantastic, attentive, helpful, and so sweet despite how busy it was. The staff worked incredibly hard all night and it showed. Plentiful parking, amazing food, great atmosphere. We will definitely be back to this hidden gem we didn't even know existed in town. Thank you for making our Valentine's Day special after a long day of yard work

My mother-in-law enjoyed her meal (also fantastic) everything was cooked fresh and made in house I could tell that much Why not 5 stars?

I will definitely give them another shot & see how another dish goes! I want to support small businesses so please try them for yourself! I have been spoiled by living in Arizona. Call in advance for seating as it is a small hole-in-the-wall with limited space but nice little restaurant!

You can't see it from the main road and the outside may look a little unassuming, but don't let that fool you. This is a hidden gem in Orange Park. Surprisingly, there don't seem to be very many places for good authentic Mexican tacos. This is probably as close as you can get. It doesn't hurt that it's a grocery too! Prices here for the made-to-order side won't hurt the wallet, and you can find some rather unique and quality stuff otherwise. Service was extremely friendly and happy to help in either English or Spanish. In terms of flavor, the al pastor was top notch. It comes with lime wedges and your choice of either mild or spicy salsa. While there isn't anywhere indoors to sit and eat, there's several tables outside to take advantage of the beautiful spring weather. Give this place a try!

The rice was very dry, but squeezing some hot sauce on top helped make it edible. My daughter ordered a chicken quesadilla, but she didn't like the cheese, so it went mostly uneaten.
