Mexico's Michoacan is widely considered the birthplace of carnitas, and has become a destination…read morefor people who crave its slow cooked goodness. Having stumbled across this mini taqueria / carniceria while searching for good food around Mansfield, I couldn't be more elated to patronize this family owned spot. For starters, this is my kind of establishment. Zero pretension, no room for BS, and lots of excellent food that caters to the niche community that seeks it out. It is mainly a store that happens to sell various meats, along with limited groceries, and even cowboy hats (#1) with a couple of picnic tables for formality. The carnitas are indeed the real deal, with all the piggy parts lined up by the pound. There is also chicharron strips, orejas in slices, and breakfast options from potatoes and eggs to carne guisada in their hot display. Their enchiladas and gorditas are excellent and I was pleasantly surprised by the barbacoa, which was chock full of flavor. The staff working there typically caters to a Spanish-speaking crowd, so if one is not ready to make an attempt en español, then be prepared to point at some photos (#2) or bring some friends who can translate. As I understand it, they've recently opened up third-party delivery options, so folks can order virtually if needed. Since they're only open till 4pm daily, I'd recommend this as a lunch destination. ___________ (#1) Which might be the most Texas thing ever. (#2) Start with mine. They're tasty.

All meats were chewy with no flavor. We decided to give the meats to our dogs and it wont chop with a knife, bro. Its like they dont know how to cook in the first place. Everything is laid out in containers in the front, like I just walked into Subway. I think they cook their food in the morning in bulk, probably out of rush which doesnt give enough time for the meat to soften and absorb the flavor. They need to get their cooking straightened out probably watch some youtube recipe, that might help. Genuine suggestions to the owners. They're putting a bad name to family owned business that are built with passion and determination. It'll be a No for me, dawg.

They do prefer cash in this place and do take cards but it's a 5.00 minimum. The service here I go, the lady helping me out was kind of aggressive and rude as we had a little difficulty with asking what I wanted. Again English was a little hard for them to understand and my Spanish is a really bad. The lady looked impatient but got my order taken. I'm thinking she was more upset that it was full with a line and only 2 of them working. So 1 asked for 3 tortas. 2 of Carnitas and 1 of Bistek and I asked if they had ham tortas and got snappy and said no, asked if they had aguacate (avocado) torta and she didn't reply. Once I go and pay once I get my food I saw only 2 tortas and asked for the 3rd one and said they don't have that for tortas. I'm like well Can I get another torta or fajita she said I will have to reorder and get back in line. Im like it's ok thanks. The prices on here on Yelp are a little outdated so I told a picture of the menu and loaded here. You can also see why I didn't want to get back in line as it de all the way outside. I'm thinking after this experience I hope the food is good, I'm thinking it should be with a line like that. Well I'll be back to update the food and. A picture of it once I get home! 2 stars for my experience!
