The Take
Los Armandos Mexican Food serves up carne asada that tastes grilled instead of steamed and pairs it with a salsa bar worth the trip. The menu stays safely American-Mex but hits the two things that actually matter.
Everything else defaults to the same fryer oil and tortilla blanket you find anywhere else in the neighborhood.
The Verdict
The carne asada burrito with full salsa bar access is the clear move. Everything fried lands in the same oil trap that defines most strip-mall Mexican.
Order the carne asada burrito loaded at the salsa bar.
