Bentowich

Submit page update

Bento and sandwiches living together as one. Two of the world’s great foods of convenience under one roof. It’s Bentowich and the only thing bad about it is the name. Ordering is easy. Pick a protein and decide whether to have it as a bento box, sandwich, salad, or noodle dish. Everything is priced under $10 and the selections are mostly healthy.

BRUNCH is the theme here. On Sundays, this Cinderella sleeper of a restaurant can cast off its workaday, weekday hit-and-miss reputation for shoddy product and service and truly shine. Unlike the stereotypical Acapulco or El Torito Gringo-ized brunches, Rancho La Lena proudly offers truly authentic recipes straight from Abuelita's kitchen.

Here's the trick - arrive early enough to secure good parking in the area, but be able to hold out long enough for the savory, freshly grilled chicken to be set out on the buffet somewhere between 11 and 12. Meanwhile, feast on fresh menudo, chilaquiles, chorizo and eggs, chiles verde and colorado, barbequed beef ribs, refried beans, Spanish rice, an incredible chicken mole, a basic omelette bar and FRESH hand-made corn and flour tortillas.

Quench your thirst with horchata, tamarindo, orange juice, coffee (or add on your choice from the full bar) for a very reasonable price and stretch out on the comfortable patio (the interior dining room is very small and less popular). Service for brunch has always been snappy and prompt.

Get out and enjoy this gem of a brunch in Old Town soon!
