One of your first sights upon entering Carnitas Don Lucho is the counter. Yes, there’s an unseen kitchen in this space, but at the counter where you place your order, you will marvel at the glistening pork carnitas, the butt cooking right there, hunks of which are lopped off and sold by the pound. The tender confit-like meat is akin to manna folded inside large, fresh corn tortillas. Drizzle fresh lime and Lucho’s smoky pasilla chile salsa (one of up to six sauces) over the meat. The taco doesn’t need much more to enhance the flavor.

The menu is diverse, most definitely not odd. Bein?? inventive might be the prerequisite for working here. The chefs are ever-dabbling with new dishes. Small plates are separated under two headings, ??Animal?? and ??Vegetable.?? Each visit is an adventure.
