The barbeccoa tacos were delicious not greasy but still moist enough to make the meat tasty👌

Carnitas California is a hidden gem in Denver, known for its authentic Mexican food at unbeatable prices. This small, unassuming restaurant may be easy to miss, but the delicious smells and wonderful atmosphere attract anyone nearby. With every table taken, it is clear that this place is loved by locals. The staff is kind and helpful, always making sure customers feel taken care of. The food is made quickly, and guests can watch everything being cooked on the griddle, adding to the experience. The massive breakfast burrito is a must-try, packed with cheese and tons of protein. The California Burrito, praised by a customer with experience in San Diego, offers a filling meal, though some would prefer better pico and thicker guacamole and sour cream. The potatoes are shredded and cooked crispy on the outside but soft on the inside. The tacos, including the carnitas mix, are also a great choice, and many recommend trying the taco plate with rice and beans. Guests should not forget to grab a horchata to go with their meal. With generous portions and amazing value, Carnitas California is a must-visit for anyone craving Mexican cuisine. The small parking lot can be tough, but this solid spot is worth the visit and has the potential to thrive in the area.
