Description

Set on a busy corner with an unassuming façade, this may be a humble storefront, but it’s all heart with an inimitable taste of home. The eldest in a small but growing group of locations, you’ll be summoned to the counter here for a Styrofoam plate—but the braised meat with vegetables and handmade tortillas that fill it are the ultimate trophy.

This clean, airy and family-owned spot is open all day, so pop in when the mood strikes to sample their daily specials. Consult the chalkboards for the latest update, then snag a seat at one of the few tables with a view of the grill. Cochinita pibil, shredded pork with sweet achiote spice and creamy black beans, is the very picture of comfort, especially when bested by the warm and toasty tortillas.
