MONTE VISTA. If you're craving a burger and fries while in town, you must go to Chris Madrid's. Hand-cut fries and massive burgers are legendary, especially the Cheddar Cheezy and the Tostada Burger, which incorporates refried beans, homemade salsa, and cheese. More basic burgers, a grilled chicken sandwich, and chalupas can also be had, and everything comes in regular and "macho" sizes. The place is decidedly family-friendly, so be sure to bring extra quarters for video games. |

DOWNTOWN. Once you eat at this deli, you'll understand why the place has been successful for more than 80 years.

Fresh-made soups (try the split pea) are also satisfying, and plenty of deli sandwiches make for great lunching. A tempting dessert menu and homemade root beer also provide good reasons to visit. You may encounter lines during busy hours. |
