Description

The draw here is the dressing: a savory, slightly sweet sauce tossed with avocado and onions. The setup is famously stripped-down, occupying a space that feels like the back of a deli storage room. Expect no indoor seating, tables, or waiter service—and no drinks on sale. Instead, you line up to order, wait for your food to eat outdoors, and line up once more to pay when you are finished.
