rito's

this is the coolest restaurant I know of

not the best mind you, but the coolest

they do serve up what I consider to be the best meal in town

red or green chile burrito enchilada style 

so fugging good I was a regular customer for about four years or so

stopping by every wednesday to endure the unbelievable line

yesterday I returned for the first time in over two years

manohman I missed this place...

what makes rito's so cool is there is no sign no advertising no dining room

just a kitchen a lobby (usually jam packed in a snaking line) loaded w/ anticipation

of the savory goodness soon to be delivered to yer hands

a patio courtyard w/ a smattering of picnic tables is yer only seating option

yer best off just taking yer food home or to work

especially in the summer

menu choices are rather limited

which is fine and dandy because if you order a burro yer golden

anyways, yesterday I stopped by w/ my mom for lunch

we arrived around 1pm  and there was no line!

apparently the lunch rush was over

I don't remember ever not standing in line before...

I ordered my standard red chile burro enchilada style

mom got green chile enchilada style

ten minutes later we sat down to the best got am burros in the valley

hell the whole country

I've never had better anywhere

I will be back and damned soon

you owe it to yerself to find out for yerself 

unless you already know

if so, I'm merely preaching to the choir...

rito's is on the corner of 14th st and garfield
