I love Mi Pueblo and have been eating at the Detroit location for ten years. It’s one of my favorite restaurants. Unfortunately I don’t think I can support Mi Pueblo anymore after our last visit. $35 for four tiny tacos with no sides, a shrimp burrito with rice and beans, and a fountain drink. Mexican food has a reputation for being affordable because it’s cheap to prepare and serve large batches. I’m a former Taquero and spend a couple weeks in Mexico every year, exclusively eating street food. There’s simply no justification for charging $35 for what barely fed my girlfriend and I last night. $30 would’ve been outrageous as it was, let alone 35. She asked if there was an upcharge for the shrimp and the cashier said no. My girlfriend said, “It doesn’t cost extra?” No. Then I got the bill and paid, shocked at how much it was. My gf points out that we were charged $5 extra for shrimp and asks if we can cancel it and get another meat choice. No; they already started it.
Okay well guess what? I make awesome Mexican food too, and can furnish a few antojitos style items to myself or someone else for about 10-20% of what Mi Pueblo wants, so I think we’re done. The greedflation is just out of control. Don’t tell me this is about covid or a ship getting stuck in a channel on the other side of the world. It’s greed. Mi Pueblo is going to keep giving you less and charging you more. Learn some recipes. Make your own tacos.

We live maybe 2 miles from here and keep meaning to try the food. I must say, we were pleased! I got the beef taco and chips and guac. All were very fresh and tasty. Boyfriend got 2 beef chimichangas. The Horchata and Tres Leches cake were delicious!! Will definitely order again!

Wettest chimichanga I ever had. For $13 there was no chips or salsa or dip or nothing.

Glad to see this place is busy on a Sunday night! Food is closer to authentic than other Americanized restaurants. Great tacos, quesadillas, and salsas!

Got takeout here for the first time today and it was great! I love that there are vegetarian options and really enjoyed the quesadillas! My friend also really loved the sauce that came with each dish.
Always great food! Delicious with large portions!
