Los Abuelos - Ossining, NY

Owner Olga Bonilla is serving excellent, authentic Mexican food for breakfast, lunch and dinner, seven days a week. It's all fresh and delicious. Tacos come with a double layer of warm soft tortillas, a sprinkling of onions, and your chosen meat, which is finely chopped and cooked on the grill so that it acquires deliciously crispy edges. The whole thing is then topped with a grilled cactus pad.
