Se come exquisito, el sabor es muy diferente. Lo único que considero que podrían mejorar es el tiempo en que sirven, pues las ocasiones que he ido, tardan mucho tiempo en servir a partir de que te toman la orden... aún sin tanta gente en el lugar

I have just visited this restaurant, and it was incredible. The speciality here are the Carnitas, and what a thing to specialise in. I was in the area for no particular reason, and when walking past I noticed that magical word... CARNITAS. They had me. I sat outside and browsed the menu, but I knew that it was a pointless task, I was always having Carnitas, the only decision was whether to have 3 or 4. I went with 3... initially. Lots of restaurants and taquerias here in CDMX have relatively cheap tacos 8-15 pesos or so. Here the tacos I chose were 28 pesos, but here is the thing, they were fully packed unlike some other restaurants. I know what you are thinking, 3 must have been enough, right? Well, yeah they were, however, I tipped myself over the edge and ordered in that 4th as soon as I started the 3rd. I was not waiting for that 4th after a break, it would've been curtains for me. In all seriousness, top this with some lemon, salt and onions, followed by however much salsa you can handle (which I recommend, because it does add a nice kick). The staff here helped me pick the milder of the salsas on offer, so don't be afraid to ask if you have a delicate palette like mine. As always, I accompanied my meal with a glass of Jamaica water. No surprises there. Again, this drink gives great balance. In a nutshell, for a packed out Taco de Carnitas, you should try this gem of a restaurant.

I traveled all the way from New York to go to this place. It was incredible. Everything is fresh and tastes fantastic and this is a family owned restaurant. Hard working, good people. Go to this place and you will be beyond satisfied.

Súper rico, ordené el paquete de desayuno que incluía café, jugo o fruta y el platillo, yo elegí chilaquiles verdes y mi esposo unos molletes, ambos con carnitas

Definitivamente una lugar para regresar. Un concepto diferente, no es el típico puesto de calle, es un restaurante completo con las carnitas como eje principal. Las carnitas son deliciosas y no se sienten grasosas, la coctelería es de muy buen nivel y los postres rematan la experiencia. Es un lugar acogedor, los dueños están siempre al pendiente con la mejor actitud. No tiene estacionamiento, pero cuenta con valet parking. Siguen mejorando y actualizando el menú con opciones de temporada y nuevas propuestas.

Amazing. Catch a theater production at the Helenico theater then go here for food. Get the Birria.

Es buen lugar, la ensalada solo es lechuga, muy costosa para los ingredientes. Pero el servicio y el ambiente se ven decentes. Si tienes hambre, no es el lugar para pedir una ensalada.
