Carnitas were good but the customer service employees could use a couple of customer service classes .

Wow! What a gem! This is my first time here and my husband picked the place for dinner. We were craving Mexican food and this place got it all. We came with 5 adults and 1 child. We were seated after 5 minutes. The ambiance is nice and comfortable. We each order our own plate and they're worth every dollar. They are so generous with the serving and gosh the beans and carnitas are just hitting the spot in every way. Their salsa is spicy but not lingering. The only reason this is not a 5 star review for me is bc of the rice. I felt like the rice could have been cooked a little bit more bc it was grainy. But again, I've eaten rice since I was born so I'm expecting it to be cooked well. Overall, what a gem. I bookmarked and will come back next time we're visiting my sister. Her house was 5 mins from the restaurant. I'll be coming back. Yum!!!!

Duuuuuuuuude... don't sleep on this place. Seriously, it's so good! I have been to Carnitas Uruapan and it's been great each and every time. Twice I went in for breakfast and the last time was to sit at the bar and enjoy my food inside of the restaurant - I love the vibe. The carnitas, I mean, come on. They're insanely good and I suppose we'd all expect that especially since it parades their specialty in the name of the restaurant. After having the carnitas and eggs once, I needed to come back for more, which I did. Beyond me being impressed by this place, so were all of my friends. But wait, there's more. Here's something I don't believe many people will think about when visiting this place. When you're craving a carne asada burrito, consider coming here before taking a trip to the local taco shop. Call ahead, place your order, walk in, sit at the vibey bar, get served your burrito, and close your eyes to savor the juicy carne and well built burrito after you take each and every bite. So what are you waiting for? Get your butt over to Carnitas Uruapan and thank me later.

The service was good and friendly. They let us do some substitutions to our order with no problems. There is plenty of seating inside. The food was good. Ordered the 2 taco combination that included beef and carnitas tacos with rice and beans. Also ordered the carne asada fries. The beef taco had a fried shell while the carnitas did not. The rice and beans were tasty. The carne asada fries were great. The fries were nice and crunchy and had a lot of meat.

We weren't sure if this restaurant was run by the same family that ran the Carnitas we grew up on in Spring Valley/later Lemon Grove (we were informed it wasn't), but came for the carnitas plates and weren't disappointed. We started with a chicharrones plate for appetizers, and they were great - nicely crisped on the outside and tender inside. It's been a while since I had these and I forgot how good they were.For our entrees, we all ordered the carnitas plates, which come with the usual accompaniment of tortillas, tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and lemons. On the side were rice and beans, and both dishes tasted great. Really liked both. The carnitas were flavorful and tender, and will order again. Will also be trying the carnitas burrito and sopes on future visits.Service was solid and there was plenty of parking out front. Nice interior inside the restaurant and plenty of seating, including a room for larger groups.

Love this place! Highly recommend the carnitas plate for one as it will be enough for two meals. The meat was moist and flavorful and came with a generous portion of toppings and tortillas. Festive atmosphere and good service with reasonable prices. My go-to spot if craving carnitas.

Had the carnitas torta served with frys + free chips & salsa. Fries were great, the torta had a nice soft bread, the carnitas was flavorful and tender. The salsa with chips was a nice touch. Salsa was nice and had a bit of heat to it. I was served quick and everyone was nice. I'm not in this area often, but I would come back here.
