"Owner Gustavo Lom’s shop is a mainstay of the 16th Street corridor and a hotbed of great Mexican eating, where classic Mexican sandwiches come filled with options like cochinita pibil and fried turkey tails. Check out the torta ahogada, Mexico’s fiery answer to the French dip: a crusty bolillo roll stuffed with tender carnitas and avocado and “drowned” in chile de arbol sauce. Lom also stocks a decked-out salsa bar." - Nikki Buchanan, Chris Malloy
