"Lawrence Smith and Aseret Arroyo moved from their popular food truck to this adorably kitschy, light-filled space in the rehabbed Egyptian Motor Hotel, where they’re cranking out new wave street food. His frequently changing menu delves into the heart of Mexico yet represents a thoroughly modern viewpoint, incorporating delicacies such as roasted grasshoppers, Oaxacan ants and mushroom-like corn smut (huitlacoche). Sip cocktails on the patio overlooking Grand Avenue, and if the pan de elote cheesecake is available, order it." - Nikki Buchanan
