Food here is amazing!!! I'm originally from Cali, and every time I visit the city, I stop at El Portón, not only once or twice, but three or four times. So yummy

Without doubt the best puerquitas in town. This is an unpretentious restaurant that knows what does it mean to have an excellent plate and stick to it. If you happen to be on a puerquita/marranita tour, this place is a must.
