"Everything at Carnitas Michoacan is mouthwatering and satisfying because each dish starts with perfectly seasoned and expertly prepared meat. Here, people can order birria, carne asada, pollo, pastor, and carnitas surtida by the pound to create a feast at home. You just can’t go wrong with any of the choices on the menu. Conduct a taco taste test, if you must, starting with the carnitas — a dish originated in the state of Michoacán — and ending with the al pastor. No matter the meat choice, these are some of the best tacos in Plaza Fiesta." - Olivia Harrison

The food was quite good, and the reviews below are inaccurate, everything was quite clean. The interesting part of this place is that they give you the cilantro, onions and salsas in a bar format so you can eat your taco exactly how you'd like. Also cost effective and loved that you got a Mexican coke with a combo, will visit again in the future.

Omg, should have read before going to this nasty place the reviews are true we went on 9/2/16 and look for a place to sit, boom a cockroach. I told the stupid lady to give me my money back she held back for a while but finally did. This place is locate in Plaza Fiesta. Please don't go, for health reasons or even food poisoning. It should have a sign. Eat at own risk!

Such a nasty place.... Cockroaches in the kitchen, mold on the ceilings and dust falling from the tvs and ceiling fans.

I almost vomited because I looked at the health inspection grade and it was a 70! Me and my family are never eating there again. I'm sorry but we would rather value our health and safety. Casi vomité porque miré el grado de inspección sanitaria y que era un 70! Yo y mi familia jamás vamos a comer ahí de nuevo. Lo siento pero preferimos a valorar nuestra salud y seguridad

Cómida mal hecha, fría, un poco caro y sucio no te sientes cómodo comiendo ahi... No limpian las mesas ni el piso... No me gusto para nada

My two Mexican friends bring me here all the time. It's a family friendly spot in Plaza Fiesta. We usually each order 3 tacos for dinner which is a perfect amount. No fancy toppings, just pure authentic food! They provide the lime, onions, cilantro, and radish as free table add-ins. This time I also got a birria plate, which also came with tortillas. I loved the beans and rice!

Definitely one of my go-to spots when I come to Plaza Fiesta! My mom and I have been coming here for years and the food and service never disappoints. I highly recommend the tacos de carne asada and al pastor with the mango juice as well! Perfect for a quick bite!

I had never tried this type of food from Mexico before, and I can't wait to return. They have different kinds and sizes of tortillas to try. The flavor of the meat was wonderful, and not too spicy. The rice water drink was another highlight.

Pides para llevar y cuando llegas a tu destino no encuentras tortillas ni una salsita

Carnitas here are great. Multiple varieties of carnitas. Do yourself a favor and order the surtida - a delicious mix. Good house made tortillas. No frills, excellent.
