I am so sick of the American-style Mexican restaurants in this area. This sounds like a refreshing change. Peppers!


It's completely NOT your average Mexican place. Also out there is a great little hole-in-the-wall, blue-collar Salvadoran/Mexican place that does amazing tacos al pastor and tacos carne asada. It's called Como Rico and it's on University north of South Square. It's bright yellow and there's a money sending place in front. Walk through and in the back is Como Rico. Just stay away from the pupusas, they're pure carbs! But they do sell tripe soup. The cold bar in the middle has chopped cilantro, roasted jalapeno peppers, pickled onions, and the green sauce is made with avacados and is amazing. All your tacos come with a little wedge of lime. This place is the real deal. Better and more authentic than some places I've been to in Mexico.
