"A bustling marketplace of more than 30 businesses, Mercado Central is a pillar of East Lake Street. A number of excellent restaurants are located here: Find gorditas and crispy corn empanadas at Cocina San Marcos; a juicy al pastor torta from Maria’s restaurant; fiery pozole from La Perla Tortilleria; or tamales from La Loma, mentioned below. Wander around the market for even more excellent eats." - Eater Staff
