Editorial Review
This Pilsen institution is hard to miss as its brightly colored exterior is a work of art. Inside, the menu is full of basic and cheap traditional Mexican fare. Scarf down hot tortilla chips with pickled carrots and jalapeños as you peruse the menu. Be adventurous and try the menudo (tripe soup) or play it safe and gorge on their signature "Filete Nuevo Leon," a New York strip served with rice, beans and potatoes. BYOB.
