My partner and I just had this a week ago and we love the #5 very great spot to come to after a hike or if you just want to grab a bite to eat.

Cooks is amazing! They bake their own breads and pastries, ingredients are super fresh. I love the atmosphere and decor of the restaurant. Staff was super friendly. Big selection and lots to choose from. Everything was very flavorful , prepared well and was picturesque. It gets busy durring lunch rush but then line moves quickly. Lots of restaurant seating and a small patio as well.

A rare 5 star experience! I'm Changing my focus off of price and value during covid so I'll just say expect to pay around $15 for a sandwich. But oh what a sandwich it is. I had the pulled pork torta and I'm usually a little leary of some of the fusion dishes out there but this was an awesome sandwich. I had the pineapple, orange, coconut side dish which was excellent as well. I could have easily v mowed 5 of them... Eat here soon.

Torta location was recommended by my husband's coworker so I checked on Yelp and they also had good reviews. The torta/sandwiches are delicious. I ordered the grilled veggie #00 and my husband order the Asada #5. The tortas were heavy which is always a good sign and packed with fresh ingredients. We also ordered an agua fresca (Chia Lemonade). We will be returning...

Not your average torta, just look at their extensive menu on the wall. Customer service is great. They bake their own bread and Aguas frescas. If you are going during lunch hour call ahead because it gets very busy. I'll leave you with some of their sweet delights.

Good food. Something different for the area. I always get their Mexican Salad, Bombero, and shrimp poboy. I would like them to better designate what to do after you pay. About 6 people were inside for about 5 minutes before they realised we had to go outside to wait for our food.

Always delicious. Pricey, but delicious.
I used to come here back in the early days. The quality is consistent. I am a fan of the ranchito. Something about that combination of meats and cheese makes me melt. I writhe in ecstasy, although I have never taken actual ecstasy so maybe this is not an accurate physical assessment. Prices have risen over the years which is understandable given it is "gourmet". However, A 14 dollar torta / sandwich? Every once in a while I guess that is okay. It is tasty AF. I will say that they are clearly skimping on the sides which previously came in a larger container. Potato salad is not expensive to make. GIVE ME TATORS! Anyway, still holds up as a flavor bomb in your mouth but there are many options out there that I can pass on the price alone.
