Carnitas are a little dry. Didn’t expect to have half of my meat to be skin. Beans were good but rice was also dry. They do give a lot of corn tortillas.

Carnitas are unbelievably amazing! Felt like I was back in Michoacán, Mexico! I forget the lady who attended me but she was phenomenal. She took great care of me with anything I needed to make sure I enjoyed the meal! Definitely worth a visit once a week!

Food is great. However I give 3stars because when you ask for a Burrito they always have something negative to say. It always seems like they don’t like making the burritos if that’s the case just take it off the menu. Always go to get carnitas here but poor customer service. I rather drive the extra miles to keys for better service

Great carnitas! I recommend the plates and combos, and always extra salsas because they’re so good but they only give you like two.

Was reading the reviews so I thought I’d take my chance I’m always up for some good carnitas that are tender usually they’re too deep fried or hard, these were so tender perfectly sesoned, juicy and overall fantastic do not hesitate they are so so good.

I ordered 1 lb of mixed carnitas, they were nice and warm and tasted delicious. Good portion that will feed up to 4 people, everyone wore a mask and the place was clean with gel to clean your hands.

This lil hole in the wall serves up above average craft style pork carnitas and salsas at reasonable prices. Carnitas make an awesome pre-party appetizer and they go a long way.

This place was recommended to me by a friend and it did not disappoint. The person that helped us was very friendly and helped us through the menu, even gave us a free sample of the skin. We were warned about how spicy the jalapenos were and they turned out to be spicy but very delicious. The Alum Rock location is right around the corner from my house but they have 3 or 4 different locations around San Jose. I’ll definitely be back to the Alum Rock location soon.
