Carnitas Chicharrones Solis - Houma

I think this place shouldn't be there to sell food, it's crap, it's a very disgusting place, it smells bad, there's mold all over the walls and without air conditioning, I bought food just to throw it away, I didn't have the courage to eat it when I saw that

Decent food, not great but good. And way too overpriced for what you're getting.Not overpriced in the way that it's too expensive, but overpriced as in you aren't getting your money's worth. Been there a couple times in the past year, because it's closer to home than some of the other street taco places on Grand Caillou Rd. The cashier/waitresses are really cute, and the old restaurant that was here used to be pretty good, to be honest that's the only reason I went back more than once.Went today and got 2 tacos and a quesadilla. Costs $12, barely had enough meat for the 2 small tacos, and the quesadilla was just a tortilla and cheese, they didn't even put any meat in it. Not the first time I've been ripped off over there, but it'll be the last time I'm going there.

CASH ONLY! The carnitas were good but a little over salted for my taste and the chicharrones were very good. The carnitas and chicharrones are between 16 and 19 dollars a pound.CASH ONLY!

I don’t get it. This woman is operating this on a shoestring. No debit cards accepted (cash only). No menu, just pictures on the wall with no prices. I ordered something and was charged $15. Three skimpy pieces of meat and the rest was peasant food she didn’t pay a nickel for; beans and rice, lettuce and a wedge of lime for $15. She can’t speak a lick of English. Comes to this country, sets up a rip-off restaurant and don’t learn the language. These type of people wonder why the locals don’t like them. This “restaurant” and I use that term loosely, needs to be boarded up.

I think most of the clientele here speaks Spanish. We needed to use Google Translate a couple times but figured it out. The carnitas and the carne asada were as good as any I've had, served with hand made corn tortillas. The black beans were so delicious I ordered an extra side. We also got a third entree, thinking it was an appetizer. It was a sort of chicken mole with poblano pepper, and my favorite dish, which is saying something if you saw me tear into the carnitas. The place amd neighborhood are very humble in appearance, but I think the food is fully authentic. It's inexpensive but they're making serious barbecue. We'll be back for sure. One warning: The red salsa is to be applied with care. Slather it on like I did and it will make you see vapor trails. Yowza!
