José Tacos Carnitas

Excellent burritos!! Great flavor, nice kick if spice. Really friendly atmosphere. The chef/owner was super cool and other patrons were friendly. Great place to go. We had takeout, I got a burrito and wife got a taco. Definitely want to go back. Thank you!

Fair enough

The reviews were good, so I tried the tacos and burritos for takeout. The tacos were okay, but the burritos had rice inside, which I wasn't used to. The most disappointing thing was the poor value for money. I wouldn't say the taste was bad, but if I had eaten it in Mexico, it would be about a 3 out of 10, and the price was 4 to 5 times that of Mexico. Some may say that this is Japan, so it can't be helped, but even taking that into account, I thought it was at a level that would make it difficult for me to return.

It was my first time to try pork (carnitas) tacos, but I thought pork is the best for tacos. The taste is similar to char siu or boiled pork, but it's neither dry nor greasy, and it's just the right balance. This carnitas meat goes well with any carbohydrates, but as the owner's research showed, it's the best match for corn tortillas. This tortilla has a rich corn aroma, is a little warm, fluffy and chewy. The pickles on the side are also exquisite. The shop is full of cute illustrations and goods. It's a little difficult to enter, but once you do, you'll have a great conversation with the owner and you won't want to leave even after you've finished eating. The nachos in the photo are not junk food, but a salad. Each topping is well seasoned. I thought that it couldn't be made like this by an amateur.

A taco shop in Aobadai. The best. I ate all the dishes and was impressed by the burrito. I would definitely like to eat it again.
