About Carnitas El Rey

Carnitas El Rey is a must-visit for authentic Mexican cuisine, renowned for its mouthwatering carnitas and traditional dishes. The menu offers a delightful array of options, from tender pork to flavorful tacos and hearty burritos, including a vegan option. The restaurant's warm ambiance and friendly service create a welcoming atmosphere, and with generous portions and reasonable prices, Carnitas El Rey promises a satisfying dining experience for those seeking genuine Mexican flavors in a casual setting. Customers especially appreciate its focus on carnitas, with many taking pounds of the delicious pork for group events. The staff's kindness and hospitality enhance the overall experience, making it a favorite spot for both locals and visitors. While the tortillas are decent, some prefer homemade yellow grain tortillas, and the salsas and pico de gallo could use a bit more flavor. Vegetarian options like beans, rice, pico de gallo, salsa, and tortillas are available, and the friendly staff makes it a kid-friendly environment. This is considered the best place for carnitas in Oxnard, with a new location recently opening in Ventura, which many look forward to trying.
