Las Tortugas Market - Shelby Township (MI)

5 /5 Johnny B.: Very good authentic Mexican food delicious and nice staff.

5 /5 Kristine Gumapac-Dlr: Authentic Mexican restaurant with great tacos and a weekend menu you wont want to miss. The tortugas (sandwiches) are deliciously filling, and one taco will never be enough. The lengua meat option is rare and a must, tender and full of flavor. The menudo is a great start if youre new to beef tripe. I look forward to trying more things on the menu, and taking home some of that awesome-smelling tamales!

5 /5 Lisicas Lounge: Hidden Gem in the Utica/Shelby Township area! If youve ever been to Texas, SoCal, or Northern Mexico and remember the Tortas, Tacos and Gorditas from these places then Welcome to Las Tortugas Taqueria Market! Weekdays they do a jam packed lunch cranking out sum of the best and authentic items weve all grown to love(carnitas, asadas, Al Pastor etc) but wait! On the weekends they bring out the big guns... Barbacoa De Chivo! Yes people BBQed Goat that is outta this world! They also serve up an awesome Menudo(no not the boy band) but a Tripe Soup that is an experience one must try at least once! Sooo yea come for the wide array of Tacos, Gorditas, Burritos, heck the Tostadas but push you boundries and try something different! My personal suggestions are the Chivo Tacos, Al Pastor Tacos or the Legua Tacos(yes theres tongue tacos here). The owners are here all the time, its totally a family affair. Theyre are friendly and informative with a smile. If you have any questions jus ask! Btw authentic tacos DO NOT have cheese on them, theyre spiced and rich in flavour without it.
