The 19 Best Mexican Restaurants In Seattle

"It goes without saying that you should order carnitas at Carnitas Michoacan, but we’ll say it anyway. This pork is fantastic. The result of a tangy marinade paired with a long braise is this happy marriage of tender, melty meat and crispy edge bits, honeymooning together inside tacos or burritos wrapped with fluffy homemade tortillas. Go nuts with any of their tasty salsas (we prefer the hot red). And while you’ll definitely want the carnitas in some form or another, the carne asada is the unsung hero. Well-salted and juicy, it's excellent steak, and shines in a city that has a few too many tasteless versions." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
