Description:
When I was in high school, I used to eat at Tomasita's, a little dive on a back street. I always ordered a burrito, and I think people used to bring liquor in bags. It's now in a modern building near the train station, and its food has become renowned. The atmosphere is simple -- hanging plants and wood accents -- with lots of families sitting at booths or tables and a festive spillover from the bar, where many come to drink margaritas. Service is quick, even a little rushed, which is my biggest gripe about Tomasita's. Sure, the food is still tasty, but unless you go at some totally odd hour, you'll wait for a table, and once you're seated, you may eat and be out again in less than an hour. The burritos are still excellent, though you may want to try the chile rellenos, a house specialty. Vegetarian dishes, burgers, steaks, and daily specials are also offered. There's full bar service.

Popular restaurant serving a good meal.

Located in The Railyard, Tomasita's is usually very busy (i.e., noisy). The food is good, service is fast, sopaillas are light and puffy. Take the Rail Runner light rail up...

This was a terrible experience from start to finish. The waiter was unhelpful, food was nothing good, terrible salsa and sauces. They won't split checks but offer you the option...
