" What a gem! The carnitas at Carnitas Michoacan are somehow both crispy and tender. Each bite was so flavorful! The staff were welcoming, and the dining space was clean and lively. I wish they had more seating during peak times, as it gets quite busy. If you're looking for a place that's authentic and delicious, this should be at the top of your list. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I think Carnitas Michoacan might be one of the best places for carnitas in LA! The flavors were spot on, and I loved that everything was made fresh in-house. I did find it a bit challenging to navigate the menu since it was based on weight, but once I figured it out, the experience was fantastic. Clean atmosphere and friendly workers. I can't wait to visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a big fan of Mexican food and always on the lookout for authenticity. I was impressed with Carnitas Michoacan’s offerings. The carnitas were good, and the homemade tortillas complemented them nicely. Service was attentive, and the atmosphere had a good buzz about it. I think my only critique would be the portion sizes; I felt they could be a bit more generous for the price. Overall, a solid experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently ordered from Carnitas Michoacan for my family gathering. Everyone loved the food! I particularly enjoyed the carnitas as they were perfectly seasoned. Though I had a minor issue with getting the order right, the staff was super helpful and accommodating. The only drawback was the parking situation which can be a bit tricky. Overall, it's still one of the best spots for authentic Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Carnitas Michoacan was truly a delight! The handmade tortillas were the best I’ve had in ages, and they paired wonderfully with the tender carnitas. The service was on point and the staff was incredibly nice. The place had a busy yet cozy vibe, which added to the dining experience. I was a little taken aback by the portions, which seemed a tad small for the price, but the quality made up for it. I will definitely be returning soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Carnitas Michoacan and tried their carne asada tacos, which I found a bit underwhelming. However, the carnitas surpassed my expectations. Service was pretty good, and I liked the casual environment. I would give it another go to try their famous pupusas next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a disappointing experience at Carnitas Michoacan. The carnitas were not what I expected; they lacked the traditional flavor I was craving. The service was okay, but nothing stood out. I prefer to eat in a lively ambiance, and this was more subdued. I would recommend this to others who are just looking for a decent meal but might try another place for authentic flavors.
