| - Torteria San Cosme does realllyyyy awesome tortas, or mexican sandwiches. We stopped in for lunch on a Friday, and it was packed! Always a good sign. We ordered the Pepito and added cheese ($10.50 + $1.95 for the cheese) and the del pueblo with adobo pork ($8.95). There was a lunch special for the del pueblo, so we got the esquites (corn niblets with some delicious cream and cheese) and a can of pop as well.
We were really pleased with the food here! The sandwiches are served piping hot. The bread is very nice - it isn't too thick that it overpowers the sandwich. We were both huge fans of the adobo pork. It was simple, but delicious. The pepito was also good, but I wouldn't add the cheese next time. I know - who doesn't like cheese on their sandwich? Weird, I know, but the cheese was super thick, overpowering, and honestly quite flavourless. The steak was nice and tender. I also love that San Cosme serves a housemade pepper mix and hot sauce on the side. Make sure you don't miss those, especially if you like a kick!
The price for the pepito (especially with the disappointing cheese) was a bit steep, but we will be back for the del pueblo and to try some other tortas!
