Family owned and operated since 1961. Known for its one-of-a-kind flour taco. Lettuce and cheese are shredded in the store daily, meat is made in the kitchen from a family recipe, taco shells are made fresh everyday as often as needed, which is often, and hot sauce is made every day with no preservatives.

My top lunch hot spots!

Here are a few places that can't be beat for lunch. Some are a dives, some are a bit more swank. All are delicious, affordable and cool with everything from jeans to suits.
