Curtis Stone – The Realtor
If I could give ten stars it still wouldn’t be enough. I’ve been coming to Lupitas for over a decade and can’t believe its taken me this long to leave a review. I was turned onto Lupitas by recommendation while posting about my journey through the QC trying to find the best carnitas in the city. Let me tell you… that was the best recommendation I’ve ever received and Lupitas has become a regular part of my weekly rotation, celebrations, etc.. Don’t walk in thinking its a restaurant bc its not, its where you go to get the best carnitas + tortillas + salsa in the city then you head home to assemble and enjoy. The service is always welcoming / inviting whether you speak spanish or english. Grab yourself a few pounds of carnitas (meat only), a couple pounds of tortillas, then some cilantro + onions and some verde salsa at the register. Take that home and enjoy the best carnitas tacos of your life and then enjoy the leftovers as carnitas + eggs the following morning and keep enjoying the carnitas all week long.

The carnitas are some of the best I’ve ever had in Charlotte, perfectly seasoned, tender, and juicy. Their freshly made tortillas are soft, warm, and full of flavor. I really enjoyed the wide selection of mexican sodas, candies, and snacks and cheeses, a great touch of authenticity.
The butcher counter has high-quality cuts, chorizos, chicharrones ant other type of meats.
Staff is friendly and helpful, a fantastic spot for mexican flavors.

I slept on this spot for way too long. You order your meat and tortillas by the pound. The tortillas are homemade and you can really tell the difference.
Take your food to go and assemble your own tacos at home. We got Barbacoa and Carnitas. I loved both. Their salsas are also very good.
These are definitely my favorite tacos in Charlotte now.

Spot on Beef Barbacoa and home made tortillas right there in front of you. Best takeout Mexican around Charlotte. Prices are really low!! $1.39 for a soda 20 Oz.!
Big selection and sold by the pound. Chicken was great too. Several different choices for meat sold (Meat and chicken)
Highly recommended!!!

My first time here and the staff was super helpful helping me decide what meat I wanted to buy and how much it would all be.
The food is delicious and FRESH! Tortillas and salsa are a must. Definitely will be back.
I received everything in the picture (2lbs of chopped chicken, 13 tortillas, and 3 salsas) for $25.

Only have been here once so far. Ordered 1 lb. of the Carnitas, it was really good and flavorful. The chicken is good and also flavorful. One order comes with 4 marinated thighs. I shredded the chicken to serve and it was perfect for tacos. The prices are very reasonable. The salsa was freshly made and really good. No a very big place, take out only. Will definitely go back to try other items.
