" The food here was pretty good, but I felt that the price was high for the portion I received. The carnitas tasted fresh but lacked a bit of seasoning. It was a decent meal, but I’m not sure if I would come back at these prices. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoy stopping by Carnitas La Michoacana whenever I'm in the area. Their carnitas tacos are hands-down one of the best things I've ever tasted! The service can vary from visit to visit, but the food always makes up for any slight delays. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall a great experience, with lots of positive aspects! The carnitas were packed with flavor, the portions were generous, and I enjoyed the warm chips served with salsa. My only complaint was the wait time which was a bit longer than I'd like. However, the taste made it all worthwhile! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally decided to try this place after hearing so many good things, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! The carnitas were truly some of the best I've had, and the handmade tortillas were a perfect complement. The atmosphere was cozy, making it a great spot for a casual meal. I highly recommend giving it a shot if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" An overall decent experience! My tacos were tasty, but a bit on the greasy side for my liking. I appreciate the handmade tortillas, though! I would return to try some other menu items as I hear great things about their menudo! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! This place sure knows how to make carnitas! During my visit, the meat was well-seasoned and perfectly cooked. The fresh toppings—cilantro, onion, and salsas—were the cherry on top. It was busy, but the staff remained friendly, which added to the overall experience. Will definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)
