    Delicious cafe de ollá, and chilaquiles verdes con huevo y cecina
    Mel. ..

    It was my first time coming to Birrieria el Michoacano and it will not be my last. The service is friendly and welcoming. We got seated immediately and had coffee on our table within minutes. The restaurant has music playing (jams, btw) but it's not overly loud. The food was amazing. The arroz and frijoles taste homemade. Don't sleep on this place!

    This is the Michoacán style enchiladas de Enchiladas con Pollo

    If you want real authentic Michoacán food you need to come here. By far the best I've ever had. First time coming here and will always be back everytime I come to town. And they make tortillas hechas a Mano! You can tell they really put effort into making good.

    We wanted to order some shrimp tacos and some other seafood plates. They said thats only available after 1pm. No joke, it was 12:50pm. The waitress said she would check with her manager since it was only 10 minutes till 1. Manager said thats their rules. Seafood after 1pm. Sooo we ordered nachos and chilaquiles. Very basic. Food was bland. We weren't willing to wait another 10 minutes. Half ate the food and left. My family and i will not be returning. Not because of their "policy" but because the food was so BLAND. How can anyone mess up chilaquiles and nachos!!

    Very good food, great prices. Unique selection of foods from Michoacán. Service is not bad, okay, could be better.

    So bomb!

    I want to give this place five stars but the birria wasn't that good considering this was the specialty. But everything else was sooooo good I would definitely come back for the michelada and breakfast.

    You either like the menudo or not? Well, sounds like good birria reviews, though the birria from Tlaquepaque, Jalisco, is amazing, too.

    Bomb Birria! The quesadillas are the BEST. Hand made tortillas add the extra touch to the authentic Mexican food.

I don't know why this was my first time visiting Pepe's, there is a location in Alhambra that's been there forever and really close to where my parents live, but I never went there for whatever reason. But I'm really happy with my first visit at Pepe's. Prices are fair for what you get ($10 for the breakfast burrito) and the lady at the register was really helpful in accommodating my request for a modified burrito. I loved reading the history of the company and the owners on the wall while we waited for our food. The burritos were HUGE, hearty and tasty! The lady gave me a bunch of salsas to try and they were all good. I was totally satisfied with my meal! I didn't know until after I paid and saw my receipt that there is a credit card processing fee. FYI, pay cash if you want to avoid the fee.

I was pleased with both options, however in my personal opinion, the shredded beef was superior. I have yet to try pastor or asada, but that is next on my list. The salsas range from orange, red and green. I believe my favorites are green and orange (a bit more of a kick). The service is fast even when they are about to close. I have had no problems with any of my orders. I have yet to dine in. I simply use the drive thru option every time. This place is great for late night hunger... i am happy that they stay open until midnight. The facility itself is always clean and well kept. I will continue to keep coming back.

I enjoyed my meal. Also, had lunch for the next day. Service was amazing, it was a busy night and they had plenty of servers. Drinks were never left empty and all employees were very content on helping all of us. In the way of ambience, this place has lots of seating indoors and a few tables outdoors. Be prepared for a little bit of a wait, depending on the time of day but well worth it. While we were there, they had several birthdays celebrated. With a little song and a little dessert.

He lectured me as to why my children didn't speak Spanish . If I work and my children's mother doesn't speak Spanish was explained to the waiter . The Reason wasn't good enough. I went to go eat Mexican food not to get lectured. Another time three of us went to the restaurant. There were many open tables . The waiter places us in a table that barely fit 3 not counting plates when the food was ordered . I told the waiter I wanted a bigger table . He said other times 3 people have fit at the table . Your party can fit at that table. I was trying to eat Comfortably. The waiter Got mad at me for asking for a bigger table . Once again it was at approximately 2:30 pm there was plenty of room. The waiter was so upset he was complaining that others have fit why not you guys. I said you know what I don't want to bother you any more so I told my party let's go. The waiter got mad again as we were walking out and he said in Spanish este gente esta fregando. It's too bad some of the wait staff have an attitude problem. I've heard the food is good at Fonda don chon . I guess I'll never find out .
