Lindo Michoacán

¢-$, Mexican, East Side

User Rating: *** 3.2

Fodor's Review:

Javier Barajas, the congenial owner and host of this colorful cantina, named it for his home in Mexico. He presents outstanding specialties that he learned to cook while growing up in the culinary capital of Michoacán. Many menu items are named for his relatives, including flautas Mama Chelo (corn tortillas filled with chicken). Michoacán is known for its carnitas, so don't miss them. Or try the cabrito birria de chivo (roasted goat with red mole sauce). Guacamole is made table-side. Finish with the flan, a silken wonder. Barajas has two other similar restaurants -- Bonito Michoacán and Viva Michoacán -- on Decatur Boulevard and Sunset Road, respectively.

Disappointed

Posted by Jim from Calgary, Alberta, Canada on 3/23/06

We went here for dinner having read many rave reviews about the restaurant. The atmosphere was very lively and the service was good however the food was disappointing. Not terrible but certainly a long way from excellent. Most of the food was overcooked and not terribly flavorful.
