"There are only a few things on the menu at this legendary Mexican spot in the Italian Market: barbacoa and pancita tacos, a lamb consomme, and specials like tamales and quesadillas. They're all very good, especially the juicy, fatty lamb barbacoa. It’s a pretty popular spot with tourists (thank you, Chef's Table). So show up before noon (they open at 5am) or later in the afternoon if you don’t want to wait in a line." - alison kessler, candis mclean
