Monster tortas on big buttery rolls, in myriad styles and flavor profiles, are served at this unassuming storefront in the Lincoln District–and they even come with housemade potato chips. El Zocalo is also a Mexican-style bakery, with a dazzling assortment of pasteles that includes flaky orejas (elephant ears) and conchas. The scene is casual with a doughnut-shop vibe. On the large and diverse torta menu, the supremo — that’s delicately breaded steak milanesa, pork thigh, slivered hot dogs, a very thin layer of scrambled egg, mozzarella, veggies, mayo, and tons and tons of avocado — is a standout.
