About
You'll find a mixed LGBTQ+ and straight crowd grabbing fast, cheap Mexican food at El Rancho Burritos, a Hell's Kitchen hole-in-the-wall that was formerly La Poloma. The vibe is laid-back and divey, with outdoor seating and a dog-friendly policy. Burritos are basic but satisfying, and enchiladas come quick — perfect when you're heading to a show and need to eat fast.
There are five or six tables in the back, but most people grab takeout. It's open daily 11am-10pm, and with a budget price tier, you'll get a filling meal without breaking the bank. If you're craving something different, Katz's Delicatessen is another classic nearby for a pastrami fix.
