Carnitas Uruapan Restaurant - Chicago

The best carnitas in Chicago. Very delicious and reasonable price. But they don?t have dine-in; only take out and delivery.

This place seriously has the absolute best carnitas I?ve ever had in my life. Sure there is usually a wait if you?re there on the weekend, especially Sunday, but the wait is well worth it. A few times I?ve had to wait for a table the owner actuallystarted handing out free tacos to customers who were waiting for tables to open up. Like that?s a hospitality you don?t reallysee anymore at restaurants. Like if you?re not from Chicago you have to stop here and try the best carnitas you?ll ever have.Not just the carnitas, but everything else they serve up is phenomenal as well. Love the Chicharrón?s in salsa verde, the braintacos, give these people all of your money. Highly recommend this establishment for authentic Mexican cuisine if you?re ever inthe Pilsen neighborhood, the pink line 18th street stop let?s you out right there too. Well came back after like 2 years andI?m sad to say you can no longer eat inside but it looked sooo much nicer and of course all the delicious food is displayed foryou to select. Can?t wait to go back !!!!

One of the best restaurants in Chicago. We had out of state coworkers fly in to Chicago and this place was a major hit. Its the best carnitas I've tried and my coworker from Los Angeles even agrees.

First Time Try. Brother brought me here saying they have the best Carnitas. It's the best Carnitas I ever had. Parking a hassle in the city as usual.

This place is the real deal for Carnitas! The menu is very basic, but it is explained well in Spanish and English. They have a few other items, such as Tacos Dorados (fried tacos), but their speciality is definitely Carnitas. We purchased two kilos and easily fed 4 with several meals of leftovers. Grab some tortillas while you are at it cheap and delicious. I recommend a mixed meat selection, as some of the cuts you would not normally try are super tasty!
