Carnitas el barrio

If you haven't tried these bomb cuerito tacos, buche tacos or surtido tacos w/ carnitas you for really sleeping on this truck! It's truly a gem in the hood... a must stop if you're around the area.

Delicious carnitas tacos with generous portions of meat! The pork was well seasoned and not too fatty. There is a selection of salsas and the tacos come with onions and thin slices of fresh habanero peppers that give a delicious crunch and flavor.They take card and have speedy service which is great for lunch. They also have an outdoor table, some plastic stools and pop up tents on the sidewalk to wolf down your meal. I'll be coming back often for my lunches!

Thee best carnitas in Watts and possibly all of south central. As a person who grew up with a grandfather that was a master in the craft of making carnitas Michoacan style, this place hits a close second as far as best carnitas. Carnitas are flavorful and juicy, the salsas are some of the best that I have had. They also give you pickled jalapeños,habaneros, onions, and cucumbers.

Real good ! U can tell by the line of people..an service is fast ..the address on this yelp is wrong ..but stay on that street ..they moved up the way by the bank on 103 st trust me it's worth the drive these carnitas flavor is good

My go to spot when in the area! Carnitas are so good and burritos are stuffed. Food comes with two salsas (red and green) and a baggy of red onions mixed with habaneros, limes, and jalapeño. Red salsa is good but the green salsa is packed with so much flavor!

It's not always easy to find a good carnitas spot, but I decided to give a more local spot a try. That's how I arrived at Carnitas El Barrio! The food was spectacular. You can order your carnitas in a torta, in a burrito, or classically, in a taco. While the torta and burrito were tempting, I went for the tacos. They have three delicious salsas to pair their carnitas so make sure to try each! They have stools for you to sit and eat. (I pulled one up to the truck bar because the tacos are so loaded that I needed to put the plate down in order to give each taco my undivided attention)

Stop by periodically when I'm in the neighborhood I must say the food is absolutely delicious. The staff is absolutely friendly and professional. Well recommended.

This carnitas spot is slept on. They are my personal favorites in LA. If you're tired of dry, chewy carnitas, then look no further! Ask for the tacos Surtidos [which means mixed] with the habanero salsa, cilantro, onions, and you'll see why i rate this place 5 stars! I'm all about the juicy, flavorful, kinda of greasy, loaded taco...and this is it!
