Mega Carnitas uses good quality meat. The meat is seasoned perfectly and melts in your mouth. Tacos are fat with meat they are not stingy. They also give you a bonus side of grilled onions, radishes and a roasted pepper with your tacos. The Pozole is also delicious made just like homemade and they don't add extra cumin to Pozole. I almost hate to review this place, because everyone will know how delicious their tacos, sopes, and Pozole are. The staff is also sweet and friendly.

Wow I felt discriminated here. Can’t believe a business is allowed to treat their own race like this. I could feel the the difference how they treated me vs Asian couple. 1st guacamole was served with tortilla chips, I wasn’t offered guacamole,2nd water without asking they were served water I wasn’t offered and then I got a plastic fork instead they got steel set or utensils not to mention the plates used. It’s a shame.

Ordered menudo and some other stuff and oh my God, I am extremely impressed. I grew up on all of this, and it is the closest to home that I've had in a very long time and I eat menudo every weekend. Very very great food! Also, the green sauce is top notch and I am somewhat of a professional lol

Just went to pick up my order that was supposed to be ready 15 minutes ago. Didn't have the courtesy of saying they were not ready. Had to wait another 7 minutes. No utensils, no napkins. Horrible 😭

Great experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, and my order was packed perfectly! You can tell they put care into everything—from how it’s packed to how it tastes. The staff was friendly and made the whole process super easy. Definitely my new go-to when I need a quick but delicious meal. Highly recommend!

I have been dinning in the restaurant for a while now and I really enjoy the food, environment and service. However, now that I have been able to experience having the food truck out to one of my family events, I have to say that Me-Ga Carnitas continues to exceed my expectations. We reserved the food truck for a graduation party and everyone loved the food and their timing is right on point! Thank you Me-Ga Carnitas for your superior service and phenomenal food. I ordered Asada, Pastor and Carnitas. The salsas were fantastic and the taco portions were great as well. Thank you again for everything.

Stay away from their taquizas, unfortunately they never disclosed how many servings each person can get and mid party they will cancel you. Leaving you stranded. Highly disappointed and will rather take my money where I’m valued as a customer.
We ordered the Paquete 3, which was plentiful. However, it was served on a cutting board and not a griddle which made the food get cold quite fast. They also charge 18% gratuity for a family of 4+. However, in our case we had a toddler who doesn't eat much so I found that amusing.

Easily the best carnitas in Chicago. Always worth the drive from Wicker Park. The green sauce rules.

Some of my favorite tacos!! This is a hidden gem. I found them while driving down Pulaski late night. All their tacos are freaking good. My favorite pastor and lengua. The servers are super friendly and the kitchen super fast. I recommend it 💯

I always order Carnitas through Uber but lately they seem to need more Browning, they come as very Tender or as Overcooked White, not as Browned Tasty as more before.
