" Great food at Carnitas Becerra! The flavors were authentic and memorable. There was a slight wait for the food but nothing too unbearable. The ambiance felt rustic, adding to the charm. Definitely a hidden gem worth the visit. Looking forward to trying their menudo next time as I have heard great things about it! " (*Curated Review*)

The carnitas were some of the most delicious I've ever tasted, perfectly seasoned and served with handmade tortillas.

" Absolutely loved my visit to Carnitas Becerra! Everything tasted fresh and authentically prepared. The birria de chivo was a standout, and pair it with their homemade tortillas—simply divine! The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. Just a little hectic since they were busy, but that’s a good sign, right? Will certainly be back soon for more of this culinary delight! " (*Curated Review*)
