TEX-MEX · FULLERTON
Relleno
The tortilla is the same everywhere. What matters — the only thing that matters — is the filling.
La tortilla es la misma en todos lados. Lo que importa es el relleno. — A fictional restaurant — not a real business. A design demonstration by Isolume.

The house signature
Your receipt prints before your burrito.
Build it step by step. Every price sits on the button before your finger gets there, and the total below is the register’s — Fullerton sales tax included, to the cent.
Arma lo tuyo paso por paso — la cuenta es la del mostrador, centavo por centavo.
A zero you can read is a promise. A zero that never appears is a rumor. Un cero que puedes leer es una promesa.
Guacamole costs $2.75, and it says so here — not once you're committed at the register.
Tap water prints its $0.00 — free, gladly. See the house rules below.
Antojitos · the fixed menu
Everything else, priced exactly.
No “from”, no “market price”, no fine print. What it says here is what the register says.
Sin “desde”, sin letra chica. Lo que dice aquí es lo que marca la caja.
Feeding more than eight? La fiesta — trays by the arithmetic, pickup only.
The salsas · la escalera
Colour here means heat.
All four are free. Colour on this page means heat — nothing else.
Las cuatro son gratis. El color en esta página significa picante — nada más.
the starting rung — bites about as hard as a joke
the everyday one — warms, doesn't punish
now you feel it — order it knowingly
the only red on this whole page is in this cup, for a reason
What we won’t do
Three things this house doesn’t sell.
A burrito loses in 25 foil-wrapped minutes what the plancha took eight to give it — and the apps keep up to thirty cents of every dollar. That money stays in the avocado instead. Takeout, gladly: order, walk over, it's hot.
Apps de reparto, no.Everything we sell is on the wall with its price on it. If a place has prices it doesn't publish, ask yourself who's paying them.
Menú secreto, no hay.With ice, with lime, no attitude. The horchata is $3.25 and worth it — but nobody here will make ordering water feel like a downgrade.
El agua de la llave es gratis.From the wall
The posters say what the page keeps.

Hours & the visit
The plancha runs until 1 AM.
Thursday through Saturday we close at 1 AM, because downtown Fullerton is still hungry at midnight — and whoever walks in at 12:40 eats exactly what the 1 PM crowd ate. La plancha aguanta hasta la 1.
