Description

The kitchen turns out classics like crunchy tostadas, chilaquiles, and a spicy beef soup that rivals home cooking. The draw here is straightforward, traditional food served in notably generous portions—the burrito bowls are easily large enough to share—at a fraction of the usual cost. If the menu is unfamiliar, the welcoming staff is happy to explain the dishes.
