" Honestly, I was a bit skeptical at first, but after my first bite of the carnitas, I was sold! This place does an incredible job at keeping that authentic taste alive. It’s a small place, which makes it cozy, but prepare for a busy visit on weekends! Worth every cent! " (*Curated Review*)

" Carnitas El Choche is my go-to for carnitas! The flavor is always on point, and the service is super friendly. I always feel welcomed when I walk in.
