Carnes Asadas y Cabritos San Miguel

I called ahead to see if they had machitos
and cabrito en sangre. They assured me they had both. I took off with my heart sent on the two dishes. When I arrived I asked how the cabrito en sangre was prepared. Server said it was well seasoned with traditional spices. I immediately placed my order and was looking forward to this deliciousness that I hadn’t had since I was living with my Grama at her ranch in Mexico when I was a little girl. My cabrito en sangre arrived and I went in fresh corn tortilla in hand and took a scoop. I was hoping it was all how I imagined it to be. But it wasn’t. Cabrito en sangre tasted like school cafeteria gravy. Hospital bland food beef stew at it’s best is what was presented to me. Got the servers attention and explained my foodie dilemma. He graciously asked if I wanted something else. I asked for machitos and they were out. Disappointing.
I opted for Cabezitas de cabrito and tripitas. That was good but not spectacular.
May go back for grilled cabrito which is the specialty. That I’m sure will be awesome!

If you love cabrito this is the place to go. The food is excellent! Start off with the guacamole. Wonderful! I ordered the Tacos de Trompo. Homemade torillas. Beans and rice to die for. My husband ordered the cabrito. He stated it was great and wanted to come back again. They had people there eating and more coming in the door when we left. I will return. I have gone to some of the other cabrito restaurants and have not been impressed. This is the real thing! They do speak Spanish but were able to help us along in ordering.
