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.

Great food, great atmosphere, great service. We went for lunch. Food was excellent and reasonable prices. The
Salsa was hot but outstanding. Highly recommend. You
can't get this back home!

Very low-key, authentic restaurant off the strip, but worth the drive. HUGE menu of Mexican dishes. Best tacos I've had in a long time, and enchiladas were great too. I don't think you would be disappointed with anything ordered here!
