Carnitas Don Raul

5 Stars Carnitas Don Raul does NOT miss! The pork is insanely juicy and full of rich flavor. The quesadillas are nothing like what you'd expect--in the best way possible. The salsas? Absolutely bursting with flavor, adding the perfect kick. And don't even get me started on the tacos and the good ass torta--straight-up delicious! If you love authentic carnitas, this spot is a must-visit. And let's not forget about the Agua Fresca. THE BEST IN TOWN.

This place is across the street from the San Antonio Museum of Art. After visiting the museum, I was looking for a place to have a quick bite before I got back on the Hop on Hop Off trolley. Since I am in Texas, I wouldn't have Italian food, which I could have any time in NJ. I don't usually eat pork, and I am very sensitive to the scent/flavor of meat. This place only has pork, as you can see in its name. I had a taco Moreliana with Brazuelo(shoulder) meat. It was good. The meat was prepared right--no strange flavor, lean and soft. If you ever visit the SAMA, stop by and have a bite! Now I feel bad that I didn't take a picture.

When i first took a bite of a taco de carnitas from Carnitas Don Raul, i was instantly transported back to Querétaro, Mexico in the summer of 95'. I thought of Hortencia and her lovely flower print summer dress the one she would scold me all summer long for ruining. The salsa from Carnitas Don Raul held a plethora of flavors that went along with each savory bite. And to top it all off, a Mexican Coke done right. In other words...this place is legit.

I had the quesadilla moreliana and it was my first time having it and it was sooo good! I really enjoyed it with their red salsa. They only serve pork but I like pork so it wasn't a big deal. I purchased horchata and yum! Service was great and fast. The place was nice and clean! I will definitely go back! Highly recommend!

First experience here. I went around 3pm and there weren't too many people inside. I ordered a cucumber lime agua Fresca which was so fresh and delicious. You can tell it's made in house with natural ingredients. Also got the quesadilla moreliana which is a crispy quesadilla with carnitas. The meat was so juice and flavorful which complimented the crispy outer shell so nicely. I can't wait to go back. I think I found my favorite lunch spot.

Closer to a 3.5 than a 4. Food is good, surtido is our favorite. Cons are parking, had to pay $7 to park in front of their business and almost broke a tooth from a bone they left in their meat.

The torta was amazing and the bread was fresh too. Plenty of meat in the flautas and loved the fresh toppings. Tasty and fresh chips with a tangy green salsa. Red salsa had a kick. Great drinks and happy hour from 3-6pm.

Wonderful service, fresh and delicious food. My family is from Michoacán and it takes me back! The salsa and fixing bar is chilled and replenished frequently. The carne is flavored deliciously and everything was hot and fresh. The place was very clean and had ample seating. Can't wait to bring my family when they are in town.

There's a reason this place has a long line at almost all hours -- and you want to wait in it, promise. Portion sizes are insane (yes, one taco is enough for a meal!), flavor is off the charts, and service is spectacular.

Very good Carnitas. You can pick whichever cut you would like i.e pork belly, butt, shoulder. Highly recommend
