La Carreta Mexican Restaurant was a Mexican restaurant in Portland, Oregon. The menu offered traditional cuisine including burritos, chile rellenos, chimichangas, enchiladas, fajitas, flautas, quesadilla, taquitos, and tostadas. Established in 1990, La Carreta had a banquet hall upstairs and hosted a variety of events. The restaurant's colorful interior featured hanging plants, murals, flags, tiled tables, and stucco walls.

The restaurant received a generally positive reception, especially for its margaritas and other drink options. La Carreta closed permanently and a food cart pod called Brooklyn Carreta is slated to open on the site in 2025.
