This little shack is basically a food truck with delicious Mexican food. It's the same food you will get next door at El Paragua, but for less money. My favorite is the pulled beef taco with guacamole. When the weather is good, you can eat at their picnic tables.

This little cafe offers Mexican food, not New Mexican food. My favorite is the Barbacoa shredded beef which is good in tacos or burritos. If you can't handle a LOT of chili heat, ask for the pico de gallo on the side. Use a little for the great flavor, but be a little cautious!
