"Thoughtfully prepared Mexican dishes are the name of the game at Ray Garcia’s brainchild. Its cheeky location (across the street from LA institution El Cholo in Downtown) serves as a modern and refined contrast to the kitschy (and wonderful) El Cholo and its famous Nacho Table. At Broken Spanish, tamales of lamb neck and king oyster mushroom warp one’s conception of the perfect autumn dish, while hulking rolled porchetta “chicharron” come crispy-yet-meltingly tender and adorned with opaque slivers of elephant garlic." - Euno Lee
