Largest carnitas taco EVER. Cut rt in front of you when u order, the pork is moist and succulent on its own and even better with the salsa bar accompaniments. Great service and chill atmosphere. Super value for one of the tastiest authentic carnitas we've had.

My left overs ,almost finished 🤤 very , delicious. Live close by saviers but ,come all the way over here for the best Carnitas in town.

I haven’t tried all the carnitas places in the LA area, but this one has whole boiled hog carnitas (surtidas) which is hard to find. It’s simply out of this world excellent. Clean and friendly atmosphere and staff. Buy a few pounds, it freezes well, and is just as good the next day as two weeks later (I don’t live nearby, so I buy bulk)

To begin with, the food was really good, I got two burritos and two tacos, and let me tell you that they are not stingy with the meat. This was the first time going there and only went there because it was close to our yard, I will definitely be going back. 👍👍
