El Michoacan

My co-worker brought me and i have to say i craved this spot over the weekend. I said if i return to Ramona, this is definitely going to be my #1 place to eat. If i can give this place 100 stars, i would.

Best food, service and place to spend cold winter nights. Owners are great people who support the community

The venue is funny ~ a big, dark cavernous space with tables plopped in the middle around a fireplace. But we loved everything we ordered: A beef taco, chile relleno, bean & cheese burrito, beans and guacamole. And the service was so nice! Everyone was very friendly and the food came out fast, too.

Ate dinner with my parents here and little has changed regarding the inside of the restaurant. We have been coming here for the past 40 years and it's a solid establishment in Ramona. Fire pit in the middle of the restaurant and quite a bit of memorabilia adorning the walls with tables throughout. Yolanda was our server and she was quite attentive and gracious during our stay. We ordered drinks and dinner at the same time and within minutes our drinks appeared and dinner 10ish minutes later. My mom and I both ordered the #7 which consisted of a chile relleno , cheese or chicken enchilada and beef taco. My dad ordered a beef tostada with guacamole. During our stay we saw the owner, Amelia, and she waved hello to us and smiled as she passed. Our food was hot (temperature wise) and tasty. Meals are generous in serving size and prices are mid range. A solid choice! We will be back!

Great family owned restaurant! There's nothing we don't like about this restaurant. The family that owns it, The food, everything is wonderful!

Just 4Stars here which is the norm for this place from other eaters also. Lol my son and I have been going here since he was a kid really our favorite place in this area for authentic Mexican food. I wish it was here in San Diego. This restaurant has been here for 40 years and as you can see by the inside has not changed. One of the reasons why we love this place it doesn't change. The food stays the same, staff is good and yes it is very dark inside. It was a fireplace which lit it up the place and it was very comfortable in there as it was pretty chilly outside today. I ordered the chile relleno with pinto beans and rice. Sadly the chile relleno was very greasy and all I really saw was the chili LOL the chili was good not too spicy but definitely not a true chile relleno. The pencil beans were excellent and so is the rice. My son enjoyed his chicken enchilada, beef enchilada rice and refried beans. Of course, I enjoyed my Modelo. When we arrived at 1:30 we were told that we had to leave by 2:15 as they were having an event there and that we had to order immediately as they were closing for an event . This was not what we had in mind rushing the kitchen for our food and having to eat faster than normal. Well, we were just glad to be able to get some food and enjoy each other's company a little bit longer today. Going back in time and have a wonderful memories of our travels together weather in San Diego or abroad. This restaurant is on a side street if you see green canopies on a corner you're close. Ramona has not changed much over the years it's still a farming town and unfortunately like many places since covid have closed. It's a quieter Town than ever before. The shop owners are very friendly and it sure has that community feeling.

Visited 12/10/2022 One last dinner out last night before The First Snow of the year tonight here in Ranchita. El Michoacán in Ramona is a landmark Mexican Restaurant being serving this town for well over 25 years. This is the first time I've tried them in over 20 years. Still the same as my last visit. Grandma still sitting in her rocking chair watching everyone dine in this family run establishment. Large menu to choose from and fantastic friendly table service. We chose two dishes from the menu. The #1 Flauta, Chile Relleno, and a Shrimp Taco with Beans and Rice. And The #20 Tamale, Shrimp Taco, Ground Beef Enchilada, Chile Relleno with Beans and Rice. Sadly they were out of Tamales so I got an extra Enchilada in its place. Food was average and a bit overpriced for the size of the serving but not bad in general. Sauce is flavored nicely. Enchiladas we're my favorite. The Chile Relleno's were good but on the small side. The Shrimp soft tacos were a disappointment. Chips and Salsa were a nice way to start. It hit the spot for a quickie. Give it a try if your in town.
