Las Tortas Perronas

"Sandwich: chilanga torta The sandwiches at Las Tortas Perronas seem to defy the laws of physics, or at least the laws of how many ingredients one sandwich should possibly contain. The Chilanga torta here gets loaded with at least six kinds of meat, as well as cheese, and another six condiments, all squished between soft bolillo bread. For all the jamón, salchicha, and breaded skirt steak on the torta, it’s a wonder you don’t have to unhinge your jaw. Every bite tastes rich, slightly spicy, and fresh especially if extra salsa gets poured on top. " - chelsea thomas, gianni greene, julie takahashi

"The sandwiches at Las Tortas Perronas in Spring Branch defy the laws of physics—or at least the laws of how many ingredients one sandwich should contain. The Chilanga torta gets loaded with six kinds of meat, cheese, and another six condiments, all squished between soft bolillo bread for only $7.99. Each bite tastes rich, slightly spicy, and fresh especially if you pour the extra salsa on the side on top.

"Look out for the “I Love (heart) Tortas” sign, and you’ll know you’re in the right spot. As the name implies, this Spring Branch shop prides itself on its bad-ass tortas with buttery, toasted bread stuffed with tender grilled meats and your choice of toppings. Try the favorite spicy and sweet Hawaiian, which is decked out with ham, pork chop, and grilled pineapple, and pair it with a thirst-quenching melon agua fresca." - Brittany Britto Garley, Katie Holtman
