" I used to come here all the time, but it seems like the food has dipped in consistency. The flavors sometimes vary, and while the service is generally friendly, it can be slow at peak times. I still love the ambiance and the traditional decorations that give it that authentic Mexican feel. I hope they get back to their original quality because when they're on point, it's some of the best in the Valley! " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply loved the nachos—loaded and gooey! I would definitely recommend them as a starter. The tacos were very good as well, though I felt like portion sizes were a tad smaller than expected, especially for the price. However, the ambiance makes up for it, creating a very welcome dining environment. " (*Curated Review*)

" From the moment I walked into Carnitas Michoacan, I was greeted by friendly staff who made me feel at home. I ordered a plate of carnitas tacos, which were packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. The green salsa added a spicy kick that complemented the dish wonderfully. The atmosphere was cozy, perfect for casual dining with family or friends. I'll definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)
