" I finally visited El Michoacano after hearing so much buzz about its authenticity, and it did not disappoint! The chilaquiles were fantastic, and I loved the generous portion sizes—enough to fill me up and leave some for later. The vibe was lively, with great music playing. The only downside was the wait for a table on a Saturday night, but it's worth it for the food. I will definitely be back to try more from their extensive menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had been looking forward to this restaurant, and it did not disappoint! The presentation of the dishes was stunning. My partners and I each tried different plates, from enchiladas to tacos, and everything was flavorful. I also enjoyed the cocktails, which were beautiful and flavorful but a bit overpriced. The service was a bit slow, but that can be overlooked with such a fantastic meal. " (*Curated Review*)
