"What It Is: A Mediterranean/Mexican fusion spot in Boyle Heights Perfect For: Lunch, Casual Midweek Dinner One of the better fusion/mashup restaurants we’ve tried recently, X’tiosu Kitchen is a Mediterranean/Mexican order-at-the-window spot that just opened in Boyle Heights. This is fantastic food perfect for lunch or a weekday dinner when you need something good and quick. Your first order of business should be the chicken shawarma tacos, but the chorizo kebab plate (with some really excellent hummus) also needs to hit the table. Just make sure you put their garlicky Toum sauce on everything. The Verdict: Really good fusion food. We’ve added it to the Hit List." - jess basser sanders, brant cox, brett keating
