Fodor's Expert Review El Tesoro
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
One of the Railyard District's better-kept secrets, this small café occupies a spot in the high-ceilinged center of the Sanbusco Center, steps from several chic boutiques. The tiny kitchen turns out a mix of Central American, New Mexican, and American dishes, all of them reliable. Grilled tuna tacos with salsa fresca, black beans, and rice; and Salvadorian chicken tamales wrapped in banana leaves are among the tastiest treats. El Tesoro also serves breakfast fare (including great French toast with strawberries), pastries, gelato, lemon bars, hot cocoa, and other snacks, making it a perfect break from shopping.
