Man, that place has gone downhill fast. I remember when they first opened – it was actually pretty decent. Guess they couldn’t keep up the quality. Keep spreading the word; we can't let people waste their money on bad food like this.

Stale chips and year-old salsa... what a ripoff! I bet the ‘guac’ was brown too, huh? Thanks for the heads up, def won’t be visiting Casa de Carnitas.

Genuine carnitas should be tender, juicy, and flavorful. It's an insult to such a traditional dish when a restaurant can’t deliver on that. It's all about the slow cooking process and the right spices. If you're desperate for legit carnitas, hit up La Esquina down on 5th Street. Place is legit, family-run, and never disappoints.

Pork-flavored rubber cubes, you say? Sounds like my kind of place! Sign me up for the next torture session! 🐖😂

Figures. Another one bites the dust. Give it a few months, it'll turn into a hipster coffee shop with overpriced avocado toast. RIP Casa de Carnitas, you won’t be missed with that kinda food.

As someone who prides themselves on their discerning palate, your experience at Casa de Carnitas is disheartening but not surprising. Most establishments that fail to respect the authenticity of such a culturally rich dish like carnitas are bound to falter. Rice, being one of the simplest dishes to perfect, reflects negligence when mishandled. The disservice to Mexican cuisine here is profound. Thank you for sharing; it's vital that we hold local eateries to a standard that honors both tradition and the dining experience.

Literally had the same experience last month. I swore I was chewing on a bike tire with their carnitas. Avoid at all costs, people!

Wow, sorry to hear that your experience was so bad! I remember when Casa de Carnitas used to be the go-to spot. Sounds like they’ve really let things slide. Anyone know if they changed owners or something? A good carnitas place is hard to find these days!
