I ordered 2 pounds of carnitas and I want to go back already because it was so delicious! Cashier was very helpful she is the one who told me what to order since it was my first time there. Loved it will go back!

Bad business!! You are only limited to cuerritos, I wanted to buy 2 pounds.. and I wasn't allowed to because according to the business they need to save some for the rest of the day.. 2 pounds!!! Either they're in business to sell or they aren't! Not happy with this place

I'm not sure how long this place has been opened, but i saw a Live Facebook video today and had to drive down. $1.50 tacos Tried al pastor, carnitas and cueritos and they are DELICIOUS!! The flavor is AMAZING . Walked in and was greeted by 2 lovely women that made us feel Welcomed. We asked for our order to go being that we wanted to just try out the food needless to say we didnt make it far, we found a shaded area and whipped out the tacos!!:) All I can say is ," If you Love tacos give these a try you won't regret it. Thank you also to the owner of Carnitas for throwing in 1/2 lb of carnitas for naming the song on FB live today !! I named it first but it was given to someone else :( But she didn't hesitate to give me a prize too! Love this place will be back Saturday!!

We stopped by this location for brunch on our way to Sacramento and after reading some highly recommended yelp reviews. It is located in Coachella and about 3 miles off the 10. The ambiance and decor is your typical traditional Mexican mom and pop style. It remains me of Pilsen in Chicago, except the tacos we had wasn't as delicious. Since we weren't starving, we ordered the norm of chicken and shrimp tacos. They're ok, not as flavorful as I expected and the sauce was ok too. Overall, I think the reviews overhyped the food, therefore my expectations were high.

There carnitas are delicious.

Solo Carnitas para ir ‍

Okay I am giving 3 stars because of the service! We went this place on a Saturday, Coachella is really hot on summer, it was around 3 pm and once we got inside they asked us to wait outside because of the coronavirus so we went out when we finally got inside again and were able to order there were 3 women "helping " but we noticed that they had 3 other ladies ordering without making the line!! And they would not take our order! We were standing right in front of the 3 women and the 3 of them will be helping the other ladies! When one of them finally took our order she made it all mad and didn't even put the plate on the scale BECAUSE YOU BUY BY THE POUND! The food was good but while all this was happening inside with us and the other ladies there was like 15 people WAITING OUTSIDE if you have people waiting in line be fair and make EVERYONE WAIT I don't know who those ladies were but obviously they were "special " so that's what I call a very bad customer service

Torta de carnitas!
Jesse T.

Had carnitas and the buche, both of which were very delicious, the carnitas were very tender and moist as they should be, the buche taco was outstanding as well, the service was a bit slow but very nice and attentive, I'll visit again soon.

I asked ChatGPT to recommend the best Mexican restaurant in the Coachella Valley--the kind of place…read moreyou'd take an elite chef visiting from Mexico to show off just how good our Mexican food can be. El Tranvía in Coachella was the top recommendation. I tried it, and damn, I see why! It's amazing. Their birria tatemada is out of this world, and the aguas frescas are to die for. Hands down, this is the best birria I've had outside of Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. Absolutely worth the trip!

Whoa flavor explosion! The food here is so good…read more Service was a bit slow, and the food took a while to come out. We also had to figure out on our own that we needed to grab our own salsas. They have a salsa bar near the cash register. All was forgiven once the food came. The carne asada in both the tacos and burritos was so flavorful, and I loved the homemade fresh tortillas. The salsas were all tasty, though definitely all on the spicy side. What really stood out to us were the camarones zarandeados (grilled shrimps). The sauce on them was delicious! They also have a full bar, and I couldn't help but notice everyone ordering these yummy looking red margaritas with a chamoy rim! Too bad it was a little too early for me to try one. However my husband did enjoy the beer. The decor is fun and lively, with a stage right in the middle. It was nice that the owner/manager came by to check in on us.
