This little hole-in-the-wall strip mall mexican food joint is worth a stop if you're in the area. The staff were very nice and the food was tasty. We tried the enchiladas and tortas, both very good.
My favorite spot in chula vista. Great carnitas
The carnitas wow!!! Extremely tender.

Carnitas Las Michoacanas is a small, family-owned Mexican restaurant that offers delicious and authentic Mexican cuisine. The restaurant is known for its great service, with staff members being very nice and welcoming. Customers can enjoy an open parking lot for convenient access to the establishment.
One customer noted that the food is so good, tender, and juicy that it feels like someone's abuelita is slow cooking the pork in the back. They emphasized the delicious carnitas, which come with rice, beans, tortillas, salsa, cilantro, and onions. Another customer highly recommended the Chilaquiles plate with carnitas and Green Enchiladas with cheese, stating they didn't need dinner that day. However, it is important to remember that the restaurant does not accept phone orders, and they tend to run out of food early, around 5 o'clock.
Despite a past incident with a rude waiter, the restaurant is generally praised for its service and ambiance. Customers appreciate being referred to as “boss” by the staff, a sign of a great spot. The restaurant is always packed with families enjoying their meals, adding to the lively atmosphere. The food arrives quickly, and the carnitas are particularly highlighted as some of the best in San Diego. Customers recommend this place for those looking to enjoy tasty meals and suggest trying the mixed red and green salsa on tacos.
