Ristras

Ristras is a new Mexican place located in San Juan (I heard there is another in the Fort) that serves your usual Mexican food like burritos, tacos, quesadillas, etc. I recommend that you try Chimichangas or Quesadillas but they do cost a lot since they serve a lot. The budget for a person is around 350 pesos ++. Although it’s good, I think it’s overpriced especially to students and non-working people. There are other Mexican restaurants which price their food a lot lower however Ristras really is known for the quality and quantity of food. If you have around 500 pesos to spare, why not try going to this place, I’m sure you’d have a good time.

They also have a Burrito challenge. They call it the “Godzilla” burrito in which you have to finish in an hour and a half. If you don’t you’d have to pay around 1500. It weighs around 3 pounds and would take a starving person to finish.

The place is great, a little crowded, but the parking spaces are good. They also have a smoking area outside and Serenitea is located just in front of Ristras if you’re looking for that milk tea treat.
