Options range from Tripitas and Pastor to Fajita Combos and Chile Rellenos—most priced between $10.99 and $13.99. Their gorditas, sopes, and molletes provide even more variety, all filled and topped with the flavorful, slow-cooked meats and veggies the restaurant is known for.

Caldos, Tacos & Quesadillas Galore
