La Cecina

Cecina Grill is a deceptively large, all-day spot in Pilsen with a long menu of tacos, burritos, soups, tortas, and bigger entrees—including a breakfast plate of chilaquiles that’s sure to cure even the most aggressive of hangovers. Families usually occupy the booths, but there’s plenty of other seating (including a diner-style bar) for anyone looking to enjoy some of the restaurant’s warm salsa de molcajete while watching the cinematic masterpiece that is Jurassic World, in Spanish. Unsurprisingly, cecina dishes are the specialty here and one of our favorites is the cecina taco, but the chorizo and al pastor tacos are very good too. As a bonus, this place is BYOB, and you’ll even get a free slice of cake on your birthday.
