Las Michoacanas San Ysidro Reviews
I recently dined at Las Michoacanas and had a fantastic experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm smile, setting a positive tone for the meal. I started with their delicious chips and salsa, which were a perfect appetizer. For my main course, I ordered tacos along with a refreshing drink. The tacos were incredibly tasty, and I couldn’t resist finishing every bite! I’m definitely planning to return at least once a week, especially for Taco Tuesday. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving authentic Mexican food!
Made the 30 minute drive to try the carne asada tacos Al carbon and was not disappointed. The meat was delicious, well seasoned and soft, the tortillas are hand made right on the spot. My husband wanted to try the menudo and he loved it, he order half of an order and the portion was perfect! Everything was very delicious even the chips and salsa that they give you complementary as soon as you sit down. I recommend this place is worth the drive! 😊

1000000/10. I don’t say this lightly - this place has the best tacos I’ve ever had. I could see the chef hand pressing the tortillas as he made my order. The girl at the counter was so sweet and had a genuine conversation with me. I’m for sure going to return even though I don’t live in the area. I’d make the trip back just for the food.

Its was absoluetly amazing we went today to go visit because my daughter saw the faze rug video that he went to eat and we even got to say hi to demoli but my daughter was to shy to say hi. Again 10/10
Frist time here had a fish taco shrimp taco asada taco and half menudo all was goog no regrets left full worth the try taco tuesday 😋 I will stop by again I realy don't understand the one star reviews I left satisfied this is what I call comfort food makes you fell relaxed not over fed
Delicious, friendly, clean — we had a great lunch here after a long wait at the border crossing. The family is welcoming and the flavors were excellent! Fresh as fresh tortillas and great salsas, too.
probably the best mexican food ive ever had. very authentic. great atmosphere and amazing customer service. highly recommend coming here.
Right across the border, resides unequivocally the best Mexican food la Michoacán taco shop that’s just footsteps away from the US border you would think with it being state side, it would lose a travelers experience, but let me tell you firsthand it upholds the rich cultural historical authenticity from the greeting upon entering to the homestyle, warm embrace comfort is a understatement not to mention the handmaid tortillas that are to die for everything taste as if a grandmother had made it herself if I didn’t know better, I’d believe that this food has been passed down for generations, I’m prototypically a harsh critic and could care less about your personal experience, too keep it 💯 this taco shop doesn’t miss it’s that damn good so look no further if you order from this taco shop satisfaction is guaranteed thank me later 💪🏾
We ordered the gran combo. Loved the vampirita and the birria taco. The chips and sauce were also delicious. Great service. Very clean and cozy atmosphere.
I ordered a $8 QuesaTaco I was skeptical because for me $8 is a lot for a taco and Im used to tijuana portions. When I got the taco I was shocked IT WAS HUGE and I felt stuffed after eating it and drinking my horchata, and the tortilla was so good like it was made fresh. 10/10. Taste just as good as tacos u get in tijuana if not better!
Such good tacos! And a family run business, they are very sweet. Highly recommend stopping by.
My girlfriend and I were entirely thrilled by the ambience of this restaurant. Upon arrival they greeted us with warm welcome, explained the food items that we were trying to order in grade detail, explaining that it was going to be a large quantity and believe it to be true! Beyond beyond exceptional. Their restaurant gives a very authentic homestyle vibe as if you were at your grandma’s house. They hand press and make homemade tortillas also upon that it’s a clear window so you can see all the action. We highly recommend and we will be going back. Oh, and to top it off they’ve only been there for eight months. Show some love.
Fantastic little spot. Outstanding asada and carnitas tacos (especially the hand made tortillas) and vampiro campechano 👌. Complimentary chips and salsa were both unexpected and very good. Portions are big and quality spot on. The red salsa is excellent. Will absolutely be back.
I loved this place. Was looking for a good Mexican restaurant and saw they had great reviews. The staff is super friendly, the place was clean, and the food...🤤. I had the asada torta combo and that was soooo soooo good. If you're not big on spicy, be careful with their salsas. They're authentically Mexican spicy hehe.
Went in on a Sunday, so it was really chill. I was greeted by a very lovely (in my opinion) young lady. Never ordered from this place, but GM (Google maps) has a high rating for the food so i decided to give it a go. I must say u was delightfully surprised it was good. I had just found out by the cashier/waitress they'd opened up not too long ago. I ordered the pozole, which i was craving for a bit, and it was delicious. The tortillas were made from real masa and had that homely taste 😋 Count on me returning to try some of their other dishes in the future
The name changed but the food and service is out if this world. We really enjoyed the service and the accommodations to our vegetarian options. We had the best presentation of carne asada nachos we have seen and the food was excellent The horchata is cinnamony and delicious! We will return!
The hot chips and salsa were free when dining in and DELICIOUS!! We tried three types of tacos and a couple other items. Everything was hot and soooo good!!!! As out of towners, definitely satisfied our want for some authentic tacos. Thank you!!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Las Michoacanas Taco Shop is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, you feel the good vibes and the heart behind the place. The food is straight up authentic, fresh, flavorful, and cooked with love. Every bite takes you back to real Mexican street flavor, no shortcuts, just quality. What really sets this spot apart though is the energy. The owner and employees are next level welcoming, positive, and genuinely happy to serve people. You can tell they care about every customer that walks through the door. Watching everyone come in and leave smiling says it all. It doesn’t feel like just a restaurant, it feels like community. A place where people connect, laugh, eat great food, and leave satisfied every time. If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out. Las Michoacanas is a must try and easily one of my favorite taco spots around. 🌮🔥 Alton

I walked and the cashier was getting her hair fixed up on one of the tables. This is supposed to be a restaurant not a hair salon. The food was very mid. I don't recommend going there if your American they can barely speak English. The tables weren't very clean. The price is a little high considering the portion sizes.
