La Michoacana Reviews
my husband ordered shrimp fajitas to go. I was in the hospital. When I opened the box I was very shocked. Burnt green peppers charred , shrimp & corn tortillas (was supposed to be flour); no or onions or other vegetables. There were no toppings, ie, sour cream, salsa, guacamole, nothing at all! Needless to say the fahitas went straight to the garbage. I was so disappointed and still hungry! I will never go to this restaurant again.
