Description
Rooted in family recipes passed down since 1972 from founder Isabel Vasquez, this neighborhood cantina keeps an easygoing, nostalgic feel. The kitchen turns out plates like the Crudo Burro—juicy machaca beef wrapped with green tomatillo sauce, then covered in red enchilada sauce and melted cheese—alongside crowd staples like the chorizo cheese crisp, pollo fundido, and house margaritas.
