Homemade tortillas, this is the second time I came! Hidden gem! Also trying to find a good pastor spot! I tried the quesadilla too sooo good

Do not show up here with any expectations of a full service restaurant. This is a well oiled Mexican carnitas machine. Cozy with limited seating and they’ve been known to run out of carnitas, so come early. We walked in grabbed a seat and the first thing we noticed was no menu. No QR codes, no prices anywhere. Just saw a couple signs of what they had available and ordered accordingly. One lb of carnitas comes with Home Made tortillas, escabeche, salsas, onion/cilantro and lime wedges. Let me tell you, every bite was absolutely divine! Just amazing downright Mexican carnitas done right. The line is long but the butcher keeps it moving. They have barbacoa, birria, consomé, tacos de cesos, and chicharrón, to name a few items. This place is legit, highly recommend.

This place has really good food. But horrible service. I tried to place an order and the guy said hold on. I need to grab something and kept me on hold all the way until I actually got there. Once I get there, there’s no parking and there’s a Line out the door. I’m really gonna miss this food. Hire more people and get a bigger spot

In the heart of Blue Island, IL, lies a treasure trove of culinary delights – Carnitas Y Taqueria Michoacan. This unassuming eatery, tucked away on a corner, stole my heart from the moment I crossed its threshold. Walking into this cozy establishment, I was greeted not just by the inviting aroma of sizzling meats and fresh tortillas, but by an atmosphere brimming with warmth and genuine hospitality. Despite its small size, the love and passion poured into every dish are palpable, creating an experience that goes beyond mere dining. We cant forget about the food. Oh, the glorious food! On my inaugural visit, I surrendered myself to the allure of their carnitas tacos, each one a testament to culinary perfection. Encased within handcrafted tortillas, the tender carnitas were a symphony of fla
