Michael's Grill & Taqueria — Restaurant in Salinas

Passing through Solano at lunchtime and had a tough time finding a spot that was open the day after Thanksgiving. This spot was open and had plentiful out door seating so in we go. Prices are good, the food was okay, service was decent. I had a two item combo featuring a bland potato taco, mushroom & cheese enchilada with old (canned? frozen??) mushrooms, can't really recommend either. Beans and rice on the side were okay. Chips were decent, salsa was decent. Partner had the house burrito which was served with black beans (better than the pinto beans I had, both types were refried) and rice. He said it was alright. Big kid had a shredded beef burrito but he only ate half of it and he normally stuffs himself so... presumably not the best. Little kid had a side of beans and rice, was underwhelmed.

It was still good just given you some advice if you wanted it or not. Get you started sith a lunch special and it bring clientele and or a breakfast buffet. So far everything is...

I just ordered from their website. I have been a customer before the Covid-19 happened. I was glad they had online ordering for pick up. I didn't pay any thing extra to order online. I had the Vegetable burrito and it was delicious. I love that they have healthy options in addition to the typical Mexican restaurant offerings. If you like black beans they have 'em. If you like refried beans, they have those, too. It is a fun place to stop off for food during a work week but in the meantime, I'm glad I can have good, affordable Mexican food and order it so conveniently. I have loved everything I've ever had here and the business is family-owned with...
