About The Original Carnitas Michoacan

The Original Carnitas Michoacan serves delicious food in large portions, including mouth-watering nachos and flavorful dishes like Pork Chile Verde and Tripes and Al-Pastor Tacos. The restaurant is open late and offers fast and friendly service, making it a popular spot for late-night cravings. Despite its unassuming exterior, the food is consistently tasty, and the place has recently undergone upgrades, including new heaters, fans, flat screen TVs, and improved seating with pest flaps to help deter flies. The staff, like Claudia, who has been there for over 25 years, are kind and hard-working, always greeting customers with a smile. The atmosphere remains welcoming regardless of how people dress or the time of day. Many customers have enjoyed visiting multiple times, praising the food's great taste, filling portions, and affordable prices. Street parking is available, though it can fill up quickly depending on the time, and larger vehicles may require some maneuvering to park in the lot at the back. Overall, the restaurant continues to be a favorite for those seeking tasty Mexican dishes and friendly service.

I am order beef burrito very delicious
Menudo was on point. You can tell that they used the whole tripe, you also get a knee bone. This menudo didn't come out of a can that they sell at a Costco Business center. Most menudos come out of a can that they sell at Costco Business centers.

Getting there was easy on public transit. About 0.8 miles from the A line station on Cypress.

Service was great and staff were friendly.
