Do not show up here with any expectations of a full service restaurant. This is a well oiled Mexican carnitas machine. Cozy with limited seating and they’ve been known to run out of carnitas, so come early. We walked in grabbed a seat and the first thing we noticed was no menu. No QR codes, no prices anywhere. Just saw a couple signs of what they had available and ordered accordingly. One lb of carnitas comes with Home Made tortillas, escabeche, salsas, onion/cilantro and lime wedges. Let me tell you, every bite was absolutely divine! Just amazing downright Mexican carnitas done right. The line is long but the butcher keeps it moving. They have barbacoa, birria, consomé, tacos de cesos, and chicharrón, to name a few items. This place is legit, highly recommend.

This place has really good food. But horrible service. I tried to place an order and the guy said hold on. I need to grab something and kept me on hold all the way until I actually got there. Once I get there, there’s no parking and there’s a Line out the door. I’m really gonna miss this food. Hire more people and get a bigger spot

First time going there, great carnitas and Chicharrones. Salsas were delicious as well. Would recommend to everyone.
