Some of the best tacos in Des Moines. Highly recommend Michoacána which is beef with a little extra spice and grilled onions. They also have a vegan version which is legit! The churro ice cream is also amazing, tastes similar to Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal. They also have some interesting agua frescas like egg nog, horchata expresso, and pecan. Their classic jamaica is perfect too.

This place is incredible, they pretty much have the whole menu available in vegan version. Everything is seasoned to perfection 10/10. I’m Mexican Mexican and this place is 100% authentic. I only wish they had vegan horchata 🤤. Everything is amazing but you can’t pass on the tacos de pastor and the sopes!

Add a barbacoa burrito and horchata drink and it was absolutely fantastic!

We tried the burria tacos, burrito pastor style, and sopes Michoacano style. Everything was delicious but the sopes really stood out for us! If you live nearby or are passing through, don't miss El Michoacano.

Holy cow - this place is such a surprise! I've been there twice now. I really feel like you could eat there every day for 3 weeks and try something new each time. They can make almost anything on the menu vegan, and it is SO incredibly delicious. Try the vegan birria tacos. The only thing I wasn't blown away by was the fries - pretty basic, but honestly, fries are not why I am there! Their sauces, their soy meats...all so good. El Michoacano makes me want to move to Des Moines.

Vegan menu! Tortas were soft and delicious and the nachos were the best I ever had!

I was craving carne asada fries and google suggested I stopped here. So glad I did.
