El Michoacano Restaurant truly impressed me with its generous portions and flavorful dishes. The seafood and meats are delicious, and the servings are big enough to satisfy even the hungriest appetite.

The shrimp burrito ahumado (wet) is seasoned to perfection, with shrimp cooked just right, tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The carne asada burrito is massive, and every bite fills your entire mouth. Fair warning: it requires plenty of jaw action, but it is absolutely worth it. Yum.

When I cannot decide what to order, the two item combo with a chicken enchilada and crunchy beef taco hits the spot every time. The beans taste just like Nana used to make: refried, creamy, perfectly salted, and seasoned with all the right spices. The rice is juicy, flavorful, and pairs perfectly with everything on the plate.

Overall, I left with that pleasantly plump and satisfied feeling after a great meal. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and perfect for relaxed and enjoyable conversation. A wonderful spot I am excited to return to to try their monster drink cocktail menu and more seafood.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had an amazing experience at El Michoacano VIP! I ordered the ceviche de pescado y camarón, and it was so fresh and delicioso! My husband had the queso birria tacos—absolutely outstanding—and the bacon-wrapped shrimp, which were perfectly cooked. Our server Diana was amazing! She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The whole place had such a great vibe—fun, welcoming, and full of energy. We’ll definitely be back! 🌮💃

Started with queso and ended right there . If you can’t make simple queso; why even proceed ?

The first time I ordered the Asada had a really nice texture and flavor. The second time, the asada had a lot of chewy cartilage pieces in it.
