We came here for lunch while waiting for an automobile repair. There is an motion operated hand sanitizer as you walk through the door. Masks are required while walking through the restaurant to the table. They offer a buffet on certain days, today was not one of them. The restaurabt appears clean, brightly lit, and well attended to.
We were seated and immediately asked for our drink order. After reviewing the menu I devided on the Torta albagnil. This is carne asada with grilled onions and mushrooms on a bun. It comes with fries which I didn't realize at the time so I ordered a side order of rice also.
They have chips and salsa to munch on while you wait. When the torta came out it was hot off the grill. There was at least 1/2 pound of meat on a toasted hogie bin with grilled mushrooms. The sandwich was cut in half which was plenty for me. The meat was well seasoned and juicy. The onions and mushrooms were a nice compliment to this sandwich. I added a little salsa for a kick. The fries were a little soggy and slightly under done so it was good I ordered the rice.
The rice was perfectly cooked. It had corn, pieces of zucchini and carrot. I look forwaed to another visit next time I'm in Mexicali. read more
