Très bonne nourriture chez Carnitas Michoacanas, service très rapide, nourriture chaude & accompagnements piquants. De plus c'est assez spacieux & bien décoré. Staff chaleureux & accueillant. Merci à la serveuse on a jamais su son nom mais elle mérite une augmentation salariale.

NO PIDAS A DOMICILIO. 3 HORAS ESPERANDO LA COMIDA y no me contestaban, no llamaron. Y cuando lo hicieron se molestaron porque cancele el pedido.
