    Torta Milanesa
    Noe T.

    For that morning craving then this can be a spot. Can't go wrong with getting the Torts de Milanesa. As for the tacos I went with a large taco de pastor and it was not bad. Go with a large tacos versus small would be my call. Finally quench it with an agua fresca horchata or jamieca.

    my 3rd time here, never made a review. the other dishes I had were delish & today, will be killing these pastor enchiladas... purty good... took me about 15 mins to get home, so not hot, but warm enough to eat... still a good meal. I'm gonna get a tortas next time. I'll keep you posted.. eat well my frenz

    It shouldn't be surprising. This is Los Angeles, California, and you can expect to get the best Mexican food on the most random street corner food truck or strip mall, and so I should have expected that El Michoacano had good grub. But this place has the flavor. So much so that it motivates you to get your car wash in anticipation of the yummy lunch washed down with a bottle of Jarritos! Also, not Mexican at all, I realize but I also have to give props to their crinkle cut fries that my kid loves! I feel like bad crinkle cut fries are the norm, so easy to make, and yet so easy to be generically pathetic....but they have one of the best crinkle cut fries around....crispy on the outside soft and HOT on the inside. I've had the burritos here and the plates. Their homemade sauce is so good, and their salsa is nice and spicy! And they are super friendly there, too!

    El Michoacano is the best part of getting my car washed!! I can never resist popping over for a taco while my car gets cleaned and I'm never disappointed. The service is quick, friendly, and high quality. Doesn't hurt that you also get a handful of fresh chips with whatever you order.

    The food here is ok, it's quick and affordable and the workers are friendly but there is much better Mexican food out there, although this place is attached to a car wash so not bad to eat while you wait

    This little place is a GEM. Authentic food, super fresh, fast, and absolutely lovely ladies running it! I haven't had pastor that good in a long time and then in a fresh warm enchilada . So much more to try here! HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Ps the rice and beans are

    Bomb rice and beans!!!!!! Only an abuelita would make them better--which I don't have. The tacos were pretty good as well. Fast and friendly service. They have an A from health dept and the ladies wore masks over their noses, had spaced seating, and hand sanitizer at the window. I appreciated that. I will be obtaining my COVID comfort tacos from here on out.

    We were in the neighborhood and searched Yelp for a good taco spot--this place had great reviews,…read moreso we decided to give it a try. From the outside, it's small and unassuming, but don't let that fool you. We ordered the birria queso tacos, asada queso tacos, and regular asada tacos--every single one was absolutely delicious. They also gave us a consommé to try, which was really flavorful and a perfect addition. It's a family-owned business, which we always love to support. The young girl who took our order and seated us (I think her name was Arian?) was incredibly sweet and had better customer service than many adults--she truly stood out. Overall, the service was warm and welcoming, and we've already recommended this spot to friends. We'll definitely be back!

    I have been searching for a good Birrieria here in the Valley. A few months ago, I saw this Family…read moreRestaurant on the news and I had to try it out. I went with my entire family. It was on a Sunday morning around 10 am. It was pretty busy, we had to wait for a table for family of 5 for about 20 minutes, not bad. I noticed that after 11:30 the rush was over. We all asked for the same plate. Birria with rice and beans. We wanted the handmade tortillas so it was a little extra but it was worth it. The Birria was so flavorful and Delicious! The waitress was so attentive and sweet! We will definitely be back!

    My girlfriend invited me to try Salsa & Beer for the first time, and honestly, I get why this place…read moreis so popular. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt alive. The decor filled with old black and white photos, the energy of the restaurant, and even having two full bars gave the place a fun, authentic vibe that instantly stood out. Our server was attentive, friendly, and made great recommendations. I ordered the carne asada with shrimp, and the flavor was incredible perfectly grilled with that smoky, straight off the grill taste that you hope for but rarely get. My girlfriend ordered the beef taquitos and loved them. We both had margaritas. I went with the classic on the rocks with salt, and she had the strawberry margarita, which was equally great. What really shocked us was how FAST the food came out. I kid you not... warp speed. Usually when food comes out that quick, quality suffers not here. Everything was fresh, hot, flavorful, and plated perfectly. Living in Hollywood, this honestly felt like a breath of fresh air: great service, quality food, strong drinks, and an overall experience that actually lives up to the reputation. By the time we left, there was already a line of cars waiting for parking, so I highly recommend arriving early for parking and shorter wait times. - Ian Lantz

    Pretty good! My husband and I got some tacos for their Taco Tuesday (2 regular tacos for $5). We…read moregot two chicken, two steak, one al pastor, and one carnitas. My favorite was the al pastor--I thought it was really flavorful and juicy even without any extra sauce. My husband's favorite was the steak. The chicken tacos were a bit dry but had a real nice flavor. I also got a steak quesadilla which I really enjoyed. The restaurant is located in a tiny shopping center. I didn't have any trouble finding parking but I can imagine it would be harder to find parking if it was busier. Service was actually a lot quicker than I expected--the store seemed busy when I ordered, but my food was done in less than 10 minutes. We would return again for Taco Tuesday!

    I like this place, maybe it's changed over the years? I read some of not all the one star reviews…read more I still like it but I'm gonna say it's expensive for what it is and that's probably cause I'm old and yeah everything is expensive if it's good. Which its actually pretty great. I had two birria tacos and a coke. Wanted more food so I'll come back to try the shrimp burrito. Here is also how I know it's great, it's clean and the salsa bar is delicious and divine. I'm happy it's near by where I live and I just wish I made more money to go here more often. Reminds me of home. So thanks. This is an eat and get out kinda place not really for hanging out or date night.
