THE BEST CARNITAS AROUND? - This place is on a busy street near a mall, quite unassuming from the outside but very open and pleasant on the inside. It's not super fancy, but very clean and there's a good variety of options on the menu. We ordered the carne con su jugo, three carnitas tacos, and one of their special Samy's style pork tacos, which was kind of like a pastor mole type blend. Everything was very good, the carne con su jugo was pretty smokey from the bacon but hearty and clean once you got used to the smokiness. The Samy style pork was also quite good, taking in notes of mole and pastor, though I have no idea if thats how they made it. The star was the carnitas tho as you get to choose what cuts of carnitas you want. My wife got us the leg and belly cuts, the belly cut was a rich chewy chicharron style and the leg was so tender it may as well been a confit. This specific combo is fantastic, tho I imagine others would be as well. If you got and try only one thing, get the carnitas the way we did, you will want to order them again for sure!
