Carnitas Poblanas El Canelo Reviews
Carnitas El Canelo makes blue corn tortilla tacos, with the most amount of carnitas in all of Richmond and beyond! I’m not kidding, one taco is enough for two people! Quick efficient service, with a smile. Everything is super fresh. The only place that I’ve tried the strawberry horchata at. They also make a milanesa and ham torta (cemita) that is great as well. You can eat there. I recommended ordering it to go. Enjoy!
Authentic home cooked Mexican food. Small family business, excellent food.
Seriously good stuff, a real find.

Carnitas Poblanas El Canelo is a small family-run restaurant offering delicious and authentic food, particularly their flavorful and juicy carnitas. The red and green salsas pack a punch, especially the green one, and the handmade corn tortillas are a highlight. The service is welcoming, fast, and friendly, making it a great spot for a meal. The flavors are out of this world, like eating at mom's kitchen. The cemita is very flavorful and quite huge, while the carnitas taco and strawberry horchata are both delicious and generous in size. While seating and restroom facilities are modest, the focus is on the tasty food. Currently open only on weekends, it’s a must-visit for those craving authentic flavors.
