Well, I guess it's my bad for not taking the reviews seriously. Four of us went for dinner and within an hour of leaving La Carnita, we were all hungry!
The portions are crazy small. And let's be honest people... chips & salsa, 1 pitcher of Sangria and 8 tacos should not be $120 with tip! Each taco/tostada is Barbie-sized. (I think even Barbie would unhappy with the portions!)
I asked if they could please put the grilled fish option on a taco rather than a tostada and the waitress refused to even see if my request was possible. She just looked me straight in the face and said, "No substitutions." That is not a substitution. When you have cholesterol issues and you ask to tone down the fat by switching the carb so it isn't fried is simply a healthy request. I also thought about ordering a salad but the waitress said absolutely not when I asked for the dressing on the side.
La Carnita may be a fun place for some but for me and my friends it was simply an unhealthy and overpriced place to dine that we will not be returning to.
