I asked for rice, meat, whole beans (black or pinto), and fresh tomatoes. Avocado is available for an extra cost. I left out the salsa, raw onions, and cilantro, since I dislike those ingredients. My favorite meats are beef tongue, al pastor (pork), and smoked chicken burritos.

There's a shrimp soup listed in Spanish on the menu as "Cocktail de Camaron" I saw someone else order $7.75 that looks worthy of trying. There are also fresh-fruit drinks available when in season.

I've seen many local residents of Mexican descent frequenting the establishment. There are a couple of large television sets overhead with Hispanic programming. Street parking, credit cards accepted.
