Hands down the best food we had in Traverse City was at Mama Lu's. The meat is so flavorful, words can't describe it. I ordered the nachos with chicken and it was so dang delicious. Don't miss out on eating here if you are checking out Front St.
Food was good but cilantro on everything for those who have the gene that makes cilantro taste like soap it was not good. Our server was excellent. Resturant was small and tightly packed.
We stumbled on Mama Lu's and we were not disappointed. The shrimp taco was my favorite! The el pastor was also amazing. I would mention the nachos were on the small side but the homemade chips are very delicious. If you are looking for some good Mexican food while in Traverse City Mama Lu's is on the short list.
