" The food at Carnitas de Puerco y Puerca was mind-blowing! Each dish bursts with flavor and is satisfying each time I’ve visited. The staff was polite and attentive but not overbearing. This place is now one of my favorites! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic find! Genuine Mexican food with great ingredients. The carnitas had a lovely texture and flavor. The service was quick, and everyone working was friendly. Perfect place for a family meal. Can’t wait to come back for a weekend dinner! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’d like to rave about the pigs in blankets but they’ve changed the menu, and now I can’t find them! The restaurant’s vibe is lovely, but the food just isn’t what it used to be. Disappointing changes but I hope they can regroup. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a taco platter and it was very filling but the flavors were lacking. The service was prompt, but I expected more authentic condiments to go with my food. Decent, but not what I was hoping for based on friends' recommendations. " (*Curated Review*)

Archived Reviews (270)

" They have a decent selection of Mexican dishes. My burrito was good, but the chips were overly salty and not fresh. Service was okay, but nothing special. Overall, it’s a respectable option if you're in the area, but I'd not go out of my way to come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my experience was not that great. The food tasted reheated and lacked freshness. The service was decent, but I felt like I was just another number. I won’t be coming back, especially when there are other Mexican restaurants in town. " (*Curated Review*)
