" Let me just say that the carnitas at Uruapan are heavenly! I also tried the birria tacos, and they were mouthwatering! The combination of flavors was delightful, and I felt like I was in Mexico enjoying authentic street food. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the establishment had a charming vibe. A must-visit place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Mixed feelings overall. I love the food, but the service has been inconsistent on more than one occasion. The carnitas are some of the best around, but there have been times where I've waited far too long to be served. I hope they can improve this as the food really shines when it’s timely. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by for lunch, and I ordered the enchiladas. They were good but not the best I've had. The service was fine; the staff was friendly. I might stop by again to try the carnitas because I’ve heard great things about them from my coworkers. " (*Curated Review*)
