Michael’s Grill & Taqueria
1124 Forest Ave., Pacific Grove (831) 647-8654
Michael’s is such a throwback, they don’t even have a website and will probably never need one – that’s so ’80s. Their house burrito is as big as a house; the blackened shrimp quesadilla is one of several preparations of shrimp not to be missed; and feeding a family here won’t break the bank. Tucked in the corner of Fairway Shopping Center, this dual Best Of winner has stood the test of time in a county with no shortage of fast-casual Mexican restaurants.
