Reviews for La Carreta frequently crown the pupusas as the best in Montreal, with many calling them the best in the world and praising generous fillings and flavorful sauces. The menu blends authentic Salvadoran staples with familiar Mexican picks, and drinks such as horchata are described as excellent. Service is often warm and friendly and the atmosphere welcoming and well put together, though a few notes mention long waits on busy nights and the interior sometimes feeling cold or the volume being a bit loud and some feel it has become more expensive than before. Prices are generally seen as fair for the quality, reservations are advised to minimize waits, and the place remains a top destination in Montreal for pupusas, with reviews also highlighting chicharron, tamales, and consistently good food.
Wonderful food & lively atmosphere. Shared a Picada salvadorena & the combo papusas amongst 4 hungry adults & we were all satisfied, full, & with a doggie bag by the end of our meal. Don't skip the chance to try their house hot sauce. An affordable, dependable, delicious great neighborhood staple! On a Friday night with DJ, we were happy to have made a reservation.
The food is always hot & the service is great it's the perfect comfort food for a cold & rainy day! It is also really cheap for two it only cost me 40$ & we ate a lot!!
Notre serveuse nous a jeté nos assiettes ainsi que nos ustensile au milieu de la table sans les mettres correctement sur chaque sièges. À part cet inconvénient, je vous recommande d’y goûter au porc frit & les pupusas.
C'est toujours un plaisir de visiter ce restaurant, la nourriture & le service est excellent. Très authentique! Je fréquente l'établissement depuis environ 20 ans & ils ne m'ont jamais déçue, je recommande fortement!

The pupusas here are outstanding & the fried yuca & pork was amazing however the other menu items we ordered weren’t that great. We ordered tamales as an entree which came cold & we had to ask them to reheat them for us which kind of sucked because we knew they were just being popped in the microwave for a few minutes.
