A Mexican spot known for machetes: giant folded corn tortillas packed with melted cheese, arrachera, and birria.
Description
The defining specialty spans 16 to 20 inches of handmade corn tortilla, holding melted cheese alongside fillings like chicharrón prensado, tinga de pollo, or split halves of arrachera and birria. Orders are large enough that they are cut in half to fit in takeout boxes. Beyond the oversized namesake dish, the kitchen serves handmade tacos—including birria and shrimp—alongside consommé and traditional drinks like freshly made horchata and jamaica.
