Poquito Más, a neighborhood favorite, bills itself as "the original Baja taco stand." This outpost of the small Mexican fresh-food-fast chain, which started in Studio City, is so popular that sometimes there's a line out the door. The name translates as "a little bit more," and that's what customers have come to expect. The tortillas are made to order, there's a fresh salsa bar and even a small order of a couple of tacos comes with a basket of tortilla chips for dipping. Menu favorites include the shrimp tacos San Felipe, the steak burrito and the chicken tostada. There's also a covered back patio, with seating.
