    Carnitas is slow cooked braised pork. A must for pork lovers. If you are adventurous there are different parts of the pork to be savored, but if you are like me I stick to just to meat. Don Rafa's carnitas are so juicy and flavorful. You can order a plate of carnitas which you can eat with hot tortillas, and the most amazing red salsa. To tell you the truth I just order a Torta Don Rafa, a sure hit. But, if for whatever reason you are not into eating pork, there are plenty of amazing menu items to please the pickiest of eaters. They have lots of margaritas but their specialty is the mechiladas. The deserts are also very good. Their children menu consisted of a smaller version of the adult menu. They brought a cup of simple tomato/noodle soup and my 2 year old loved it. When her plate of mini tacos arrived with a side of french fries she exclaimed "I like this restaurant". In the end they gave her a small Jell-O with a nice little toy. My summary: I just love it-love it-love it. The food is amazing, the price is awesome, the staff is super helpful and friendly and the restaurant is so nice and clean. I love that it's kid friendly and that my daughter is looking forward to eating there again. Oh and if you want to take some carnitas home to eat later they sell them on the other side of the restaurant (take a lot of red salsa and then cook the carnitas with the salsa until the salsa is reduced, then just heat up some corn tortillas and voila).
