If slow-cooked pork makes you drool, then Carnitas Uruapan is the perfect place for you to be. Opened in 1975, has been delighting Pilsen locals ever since with their juicy porky delights. You can dig into by the pound or in a taco. Such is their popularity, that the choice cuts get over soon and if you are late, you might only get a few tidbits remaining if any that is. Savor their crispy cracklings, delectably moist carnitas and tacos either in the confines of the diner or as a take away. Please bring cash along as credit cards are not accepted.
