El Indio Catering   

Tucked between the I-5 and Mission Hills is a strip of bars and restaurants that locals rely on for fast, affordable and nutritious meals. From noon to night, families and friends can be found waiting for their orders in line outside El Indio, or seated in the spacious dining room waiting for their number to be called. The menu, a cluttered array of familiar options penned on a board above the long counter, offers so much that it's hard to choose a dish. Enchiladas, burritos and chimichangas are huge and surrounded by beans and rice. There's an excellent array of vegetarian options, and everything, including the chile relleno and machaca, is prepared traditionally. The friendly staff, affordable food and great hours makes El Indio a great option for good, cheap food. And not only can you eat in or take out, you can also browse the selection of house-made tortillas and chips on sale in the deli section.
