Carnitas Uruapan Restaurant Reviews
This place is a must-visit for authentic Mexican tacos. We tried the carnitas tacos and a horchata, and they were fantastic. Just remember: there’s no seating!! It’s strictly for takeout. But with Harrison Park nearby, it’s the perfect spot for a taco picnic. The owner greeted us warmly and even gave us a cajeta sweet (a very typical candy in Mexico). Highly recommended for taco lovers seeking a real deal ;)
Best carnitas of my life! Whenever you want that authentic Mexican flavor, you NEED to stop here. Chicharron, tacos de papas, nopales.......yes!!!! It's a quick in and out to go service so don't expect to eat here......however, there is a lovely park just a block away!

This place was very good and authentic. I bought a couple pounds of chicharrones which came in huge slabs. If you just want to snack, it could use some seasoning, but for cooking it's perfect. The menudo was flavorful and thick and came with seasoning and sides. The staff were very busy when we arrived, but the owner was very nice and talkative. He explained everything in detail to my wife while I drooled over all the meat.
