I highly recommend this place for their flavored carnitas! They're so delicious! One taco is not enough! read more

I'm a huge fan of carnitas & found this spot on yelp. The service was okay, there's a window to order & another to pay. They weren't super welcoming but they were at least nice. I got a pound & asked for lemons & salsa on the side. The charged me .75 for a small salsa & $1 for lemons. I feel like these should be complimentary. Other than that, the food was good. Carnitas tasted fresh! I paid $14 for a pound & another $2 for extras. read more

Carnitas Zaragoza - 1lb of carnitas - Mexican Near Me - Corona, California

Malisimo. Pesimo , Pesimo Servicio. Por meses queria ir a este lugar y el dìa que fui , habian muchas meseras en el lugar y ninguna me pregunto que queria. Al contrario una de ellas me levanto los brazos en señal de que estaba haciendo alli. Le dije que era Primera mi primera vez alli. Y dijo muy sarcastimente que se ordenaba la comida y me señalo donde. Me hicieron sentir como un extraño y sin exajerar depreciado. Es triste como este tioo de lugares estan en servicio. Por lo tanto No recomiendo este lugar en lo absoluto. read more

Took a chance, and so glad I did. They were open, I ordered my favorite chicken and mole plate. Was not disappointed. Small secluded place, but the food was deeeeeelicious! And, oh! The tortillas were yummy too. Authentic food. Good food. I'm old town, Corona. read more

I called over there yesterday since I had not been for a while and menu looks a bit changed. Noteworthy: was told they still have homemade Mole every day they are open. Had it before, fantastic! Same with their Carnitas. Their handmade tortillas are huge. $ 2.50 a stuffed one of these a meal for itself.. A regular stop for my friend and I before City Council meetings Saw the mixed reviews re customer service. Been going since about 2015 and never ever had bad service. The opposite! People and service so nice. read more

You cannot go wrong here. The name exemplifies what you should order here. Carnitas. Unless you also happen to love pork chuletas. In which case, I say, order both. This place has been in existence for quite some time. I just failed to discover it until I found my Yelp friend, Rose, had beat me to the punch. I was suffering from a severe case of overMexicanfooditis and was temporarily blinded. The carnitas was incredibly tender and moist, with just the right amount of fat to make it slide easily down my throat. Tasty stuff and done so right. The chuletas, pork ribs simmered in a verde sauce, were a cut above as well. The sauce was so flavorful, I was coveting it from afar. After a respectable amount of time, I convinced him to let me spoon his sauce over my carnitas, which I already loved, and I discovered I was definitely. in. love. with. this. place. So there you have it. Another small Mexican cafe in a town already inundated with fast food Mexican food. But this one rises to the top, deserves to be noticed, if only for those two dishes. And the beans aren't bad either. read more

Never been so disgusted in my life! My fiance told me he tried this place years ago and it was good. So we ordered 2bl of carnitas and took it to his parents house. The carnitas we're dry and had we're for sure reheated. Today my mom said she wanted to go there because they make fresh tortillas. As soon as we stepped in it smelled SPOILED! We kept walking because I was to embarrassed to walk out. My mom asked for the restroom while we ordered. We asked for beef birria but they didn't have it, so we were going to get goat, birria (again because we we're not ones to walk out of a place) . I ordered and walked to the restroom. The restroom was gross and the smell was so bad I decided to cancel and walk out. As we did one of their employees raised his voice at my mom (when she didn't use the restroom and was sitting at a booth because she thought we would wait for the food) and told her in Spanish "next time know this is not a public restroom" my mom was shocked and didn't know what to say. I walked over and said we're leaving because it smells bad in here. My mom asked how much she needed to pay him for the restroom and again said why we were leaving to clean the place. I took $5 out and put them on the table. WTF? I'm so disgusted by thier dirty place and by that man's attitude towards my mom. read more

Carnitas Zaragoza - a burrito wrapped in foil - Mexican Near Me - Corona, California

Compre 5 libras de carnitas y los empleados tenian caracter y muy groceros la verda no lo recomiendo no ofrecen nada pera comer las carnitas no cilantro o cebolla y menos salsas de ninguna clase. Si quieres salsas o tortillas tienes que pagar aparte 6.5 por un 1/4 de salsa y 9.00 para 12 tortillas, la verdad no vale la pena ir a tirar tu dinero por un mal servicio al cliente. read more

We decided to try this place out because we saw there was good rating for carnitas. We placed an order over the phone for 2lbs of carnitas only. When we picked up the food it was literally in an aluminum foil. It wasn't placed in any container or plate. They literally put the food in the aluminum foil. When I took it out the meat wasn't cut all the way. I had to cut it myself. And it didn't seem like I received 2lbs at all. We really thought we had food missing. I've gone to other places where I have ordered 2lbs of carnitas and I get more than what I got at this place. The carnitas were also not that great at all. I wouldn't recommend this place at all to anyone. I paid $27 for 2lbs of carnitas. Which really seemed overpriced for the amount I received and how I received the food and for low quality food. Their carnitas family pack is $28 for 1lb and it comes with the tortillas, salsa and cilantro and onion. Thank goodness I didn't decide to go with that option. read more

Drove from riverside to Corona for this place, it's alright. The handmade tortillas are good. Still on the hunt for some some carnitas in the IE. read more

Came to this spot from orange for the fish place right next to it. It ended up being closed and gave this a shot and honestly way better then I ever imagined. Now come here for this place only. 10/10 would recommend. read more

I dont know why this place isn't busier. The carnitas are top notch. I feel it's the location but if you want good carnitas this is the place read more

Best place to get carnitas that wont be extra greasy nor that you'll be burping back up later. The tortillas are made by hand and I love that's it's a mom and pop shop. A true gem, I recommend asking for the "paquette" (package) that comes with 1lb of carnitas, salsa, handmade tortillas, cilantro and onions. They offer a variety of Mexican food, but this is by far my favorite on the menu and if it's your first time the carnitas is a must try. read more

Always a popular spot at the GWC swap meet, decided to give it a go. Ordered 3 carnitas tacos and a carnitas quesadilla. The tacos were super dried out. Tough, chewy, and tasteless. They came with no salsa. Got some salsa and it tasted like crushed tomatoes with zero spice. Found 3 bone chips in my tacos. Not very appetizing. Super disappointing. Perhaps the street tacos next time but the carnitas are read more

If I could give 0 stars I definitely would. It's unfortunate that the low rating isn't due to their food but more so to their lack of providing decent customer service. I placed my order had them repeat it to ensure they got it right and they did, however upon picking my order up and arriving at home I discovered they messed it up. I called to inform them and they were upset at the fact that I was calling and their solution was to hang up on me. I called right back and they hung up on me. I called a 3rd time and I told them to quit playing stupid and they said oh sorry we're having phone trouble. Seriously?! A few weeks back I had a first occurrence that wasn't the greatest I brushed it off and still wanted to try again. Second time and I definitely won't be back. I'll stick to Zaragoza's in Santa Ana. Their carnitas are delicious and they provide great customer service! read more

This place gives you a mom and pop feeling, you can tell it's family members running this place. Menu isn't too fancy, just the basics to make this place good. Tacos, burritios, tortas, quesadillas and some plate offerings. All i order was a pound of carnitas for $8. Good flavor, nice and greasy. Something good for the morning after a night of drinking. My only issue with this place is that they don't give you onions, cilantro, salsa and tortillas with your bulk order. Most places I've been to before usually give you everything included in the pricing. This place will sale you the onions/cilantro for $2 and the salsa for $4. Overall good food, I will be back to taste the menudo and the rest of their offerings. read more

They have another store in Santa Ana and was told the carnitas are best early in the morning. Best I could do was 9am and it was half gone already. $8.00 a pound comes with cilantro, onions & lime. Got home it was still hot and warmed up a 4 corn tortillas. Added the carnitas , onion then sprinkled some cilantro. Added a little lime & salsa and enjoyed. Enjoyed the carnitas too much. No more corn tortillas so I'll have more with eggs for breakfast with some flour tortillas with some beans on the side. Just sprinkle little salt and you're in for some mighty fine eating as Jeter Clampet would say. Ooooo wi! Just joking folks. It is very good, this will be my stop on the way home from work for some fresh carnitas. I highly recommend this store for the carnitas and a little fat makes it tastier. read more

Hands down these carnitas are banging and the home made corn tortillas just make it always my go to when I'm in the area. Tip: tell em' you want them mixed read more

Super nice owners and very clean inside dispite the run down location. Standard menu, fair prices, though I was hoping for cheaper tacos on taco Tuesday. Nope, $2 each, $2.50 for homemade tortillas. I had one with all pastor and while it was fine, nothing special. My husband had the asada burrito, again OK, though he did not really enjoy the meat. Probably our fault for not getting the car it as, highlight is the great service and super yummy green sauce/guac mix that they brought out as well as the joy of supporting local businesses. read more

Carnitas Zaragoza - Mexican Near Me - Corona, California

As a traditional Mexican, I had an urge for some good authentic carnitas. I read some Yelp reviews and decided I would give them a chance. Big mistake; 1. Carnitas were mixed in a pot with Cuerito, buche and a broth. 2. The establishment was empty (should of been my first red flag) 3. The homemade tortillas were thick, large and cold. 4. The kitchen and Counter dirty. 5. But most of all the Carnitas tasted horrible. Go to "Cardenas" on a Saturday or Sunday morning (early) and you will get some good carnitas. Get the Chicharon espérate. Enjoy! read more

Woah amazing carnitas ! Got 5 pounds for our ER for taco day and everyone loved it. Not greasy and super flavorful! Will definitely come here again read more

Being a master cook in Authentic Mexican food (none of this chipotle crap) this is the only place I seen in So cal that cooks Carnitas authentic to the mother land en la olla with the big boat paddle they do Carnitas cueritos and buche! Great quality and taste for those that complain it's a tad too salty please remember to ad lime it will balance the flavor highly recommend the surtido which is a mix of the 3 meats. The tortillas are hand made and tacos are big! This review is solely on the Carnitas cueritos and buche yes sometimes the guy and lady seem rude for whatever reason but the food is great makes up for it! read more

Literally the Best Carnitas you'll ever eat. The kids love the food as well price is affordable A pound of carnitas with a side of rice and beans and homemade tortillas and salsa for under $20 can feed a family of 4-5. Very Delicious I give them a perfect 10 . read more

Do you like carnitas? If so, this isn't a bad place to try (you can order them by the pound) but I strongly recommend you take your order to go. The place wasn't busy as there was only one diner when we arrived. We chose to dine-in which was a poor decision as the service was virtually non-existent. We received no greeting. None of the tables were clean. I asked for a beer and was told to help myself from the fridge. Most of the time the employer/owner (?) was either watching TV or checking his phone. His body language spoke volumes and I'm sure he had no desire to be here. When we asked him for a to-go container he brought us a plastic bag. We had to ask again as we needed something to store the the leftover tortillas, diced onions, cilantro, and salsa. He brought us one sheet of foil paper. We had to specifically ask for a container for the salsa and something to wrap the tortillas in. No joke: this guy moved in slow motion with a frown on his face the entire time. The carnitas here are tasty although a bit on the salty side. Trust me, make that order "to-go". read more

Worst customer service ever! Came in wanted some tacos. The place was empty and dirty. The guy at the counter with an attitude acting as if he was doing me a favor so we happily walked out. Menu prices covered, not organized at all. Will never attempt to go back to this hole. Some people don't know how to do business read more

I was reffere by a co worker but when i got there i was charged.$20 for carnitas scraps tortillas oh yah and i cant forget some chopped onions lol what a joke just go to cardanas mexican market 2 minutes away or taqueria 2 portrillos 5 minutes away, $20 for carnitas fibers and fat no thank you read more

I love this place! Very tasty carnitas and the tortillas are handmade. Doesn't get much better than that. Also make sure you get the red salsa. It's hot but is addicting. Every once in a while I buy some for my workers and they are always excited when I go here. read more

The place is amazing. The food is so good. I recommend their carnitas, El Pastor, Asada, and the Pozole. All great. Homemade tortillas is the way to go. read more

They deserve like ten out of 5 stars. Been to the Santa Ana location (meat market type of set up) and their carnitas are a little piece of hog heaven. This location has the same quality carnitas with the added benefit of handmade tortillas, and other tasty items. Which brings me to the gorditas. Get it. eat it. And order another one. Bottom line. Best carnitas ever. read more

Awesome Mexican food, you need to come and taste their tacos, so authentic and the tortillas, hand made and so fresh. Every time we have service call in Corona, this is the go to place. We have try tacos and burritos, but really think about their soups now, until next time, Chao! read more

Everything is good here. But I found out that I definitely don't like skin pork I wasn't sure what it was but it's just fat don't order that if ur not a fan read more

A big vat of carnitas is visible from the counter, daring me to order something else. I'm so glad I ordered their namesake in a plate, with three corn tortillas, rice, and beans. If their other meats are anywhere close to being as good as the carnitas, they'll have another repeat customer in me. The pictures don't quite do justice to how good their carnitas really are. Just the right amount of fat and grease, but not overboard like at some other hole-in-the-wall places. The green salsa that they included has a good kick, and complements the carnitas well. They knocked out my cold congestion, which was a nice bonus. Leaving four stars for now, as I can't vouch for the other items on the menu. For carnitas, this is definitely the best place in the area. read more
