" Simply put, if you crave authentic Mexican food, Tortilleria Michaels should be at the top of your list! Every time I visit, I come home with a load of fresh tortillas and the best carnitas imaginable. The experience feels personal too, as the ladies behind the counter always remember my order. They're cash-only, but the flavors are definitely worth it. I encourage anyone who's skeptical to stop by just once, and you’ll be back again and again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tortilleria Michaels has quickly risen through the ranks to become my favorite place to grab tortillas and authentic Mexican snacks! I went there recently after hearing so many great reviews, and I must say, it lives up to the hype. The staff members are incredibly nice and always willing to help you make the right choice. I got a couple of pounds of fresh tortillas and some barbacoa—left my taste buds dancing! One thing I will note is that this spot tends to get busy, so my order took a little longer than expected, but you can’t rush greatness! I’m already dreaming about my next visit!

" I think I finally found my favorite place for tortillas! Visiting Tortilleria Michaels was a delightful surprise. Their chicharrones were crunchier than others I've tried elsewhere, and the flavor of their carnitas is a cut above the rest. It’s primarily takeout, but it’s perfect for busy folks like me. The ladies are so welcoming and make the experience worthwhile. The only downside is that they only accept cash, which may deter some customers. Regardless, I will always return for the authentic taste! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love the authentic tortillas here! The ladies are always kind, making each visit warm and welcoming. The food quality never disappoints, but it can sometimes be frustrating when I have to wait for them to open even though their hours claim they start earlier. I'd love to see some improvement in their service timings, but the food’s quality is definitely worth it. You can tell they put real care into their dishes! I regularly recommend this spot to friends for their taco parties. Just make sure to pay cash, as cards aren't accepted! " (*Curated Review*)

" Make sure you stop by Tortilleria Michaels—these ladies really know how to cook! I went in looking for fresh tortillas and ended up getting some carnitas and chicharrones as well. They were all delicious! It's nice how personal and friendly the staff are. The downside for me is that it can get crowded during lunch hours, but just the same, the wait is always worth it for such high-quality food! If only they accepted cards; that would make the transactions smoother. " (*Curated Review*)

Every time I step in, I’m assured a warm welcome and a delicious meal. I’m always on the lookout for fresh ingredients, and Tortilleria Michaels has that and more. Just a friendly reminder for new visitors: they only accept cash, and it can get a bit crowded during lunch. But I promise you, the taste makes it all worth your while! " (*Curated Review*)
