Carnitas, when prepared correctly, I like to think it surpasses most other meats. Considering that the preparation requires knowledge, or should I say, skills to pay the bills. All components are critical when thinking about it: fresh cilantro, for those inclined for chopped onions, a piece of lime, and vital component: salsa(s) . The traditional Carnitas would require several hours in a type copper container, but surely other types also work fine. Key ingredients mandatory and slow cooking.
Carnitas El Rincón, whose location honors the name as its in kind of a corner, worth pursuing.
Food: 2 Carnitas Tacos. Lovely Lady and myself wanted to try this place. Owner Alfredo, a gentleman in all sense of the word. Tacos arrived in double tortillas, loaded with carnitas, cilantro on top, diced onions, and voila! 3 different salsas. Each a different color, and its own attributes. The orange a tad sweet, just enough to add to the Trio. Spicy? Not where lips inflate, but a tolerable kick which was well welcome. I like the vedette carnitas. Personally once cooked I favor soft steamed full of flavor, but my lovely companion likes them tossed in the grill. Never, if possible microwaved!
Businesses throwing a get together, anniversaries, graduations, and most essential, regular Chico patrons should consider this place. As long as it is served like ours were, big and chunky, smeared with the trio salsas, is worth trying. No idea of other items on their decent menu.
Good people, good carnitas, might just go big next time. Mano a mano: carnitas vs carne asada, ay chihuahua! 4.5 Stars.

I’d never had carnitas before, but I decided to try some, and a girl with glasses gave me a taco with ribs, and it was the best taco of my life. The flavor was excellent, and the bone came out easily. So I took home ribs and meat. Now it’s our new favorite place in Chico. Excellent service, even though it’s crowded. The girl with glasses was very friendly and careful with my order. Green salsa is my recommendation.

I came in for my first time today to grab some lunch. I ordered the carnitas super burrito. It was amazing! The green salsa is delicious as well. The customer service was great. I was greeted upon entering and the gentleman was very friendly. I was given a few complimentary sides of salsa to try. I’ll definitely be coming back!

There was a delay so the staff added a couple of extra tacos to our order. Really great Carnitas.

I was excited to go here because I heard good things. I was very disappointed. The carnitas was undercooked because the cartilage hadn’t even broken down yet so it was extremely chewy and unpleasant. It had no flavor besides just base pork, couldn’t even taste salt. I could go to any other restaurant in town and have better carnitas, which is crazy because this places specialty is carnitas. No point in ever going here again.

Definitely would not recommend unless you are looking to get food poisoning. Ordered 2 pounds of carnitas which later after consuming ended up getting sick and throwing up or having to use the bathroom not a good experience at all I believe I wouldn’t be the first customer to say this
