| - Stumbled into this place because it looks very authentic. I ordered the cochinita, and my boyfriend ordered the Milanesa. For the cochinita, the meat was seasoned well, but it seemed like they skimped on all the other ingredients. There were barely any pickled onions, and they put all but two small plantains on the entire sandwich (which was fairly large). The texture of the torta was nice and fluffy, but it still seemed like it was lacking something... it definitely could have used more flavor. I also got the elotes, which fell flat for me. The corn itself tasted off, and the cheese was a bit too sour for me. I was expecting a warm, cheesy, flavorful elote, but the flavor was....unpleasant. As for the Milanesa, I didn't taste much seasoning at all. I was hoping to use some hot sauce to spice up the flavor, but the "hot sauce" they had was essentially just salsa, and not spicy at all. I was disappointed.
