Description:
I like my Tex-Mex restaurants to be homey, unpretentious places where you're not likely to run into the see-and-be-seen crowd. Of course, that was true of all Tex-Mex restaurants before the rise of the fajita, which eventually pulled Tex-Mex into the orbit of the truly trendy. Loma Linda brings to mind those simpler times with its un-self-conscious decoration and furniture and its utter lack of anything approaching trendiness. It also has an old-time 1930s tortilla maker specially designed to make the old-fashioned puffy tortillas that you always used to get when ordering chile con queso. The things to order here are, of course, the puffy chile con queso for an appetizer and the puffy beef tacos, the Texas-style enchiladas with chili gravy, and the combination dinners.
