Pog's right. Lucy's is da bomb. Not perfect -- the service is an odd mix of help-yourself and we will bring it to you, eventually. It is very, very slow (I almost asked for a refund and left, it was that slow). They briefly put all the forks face up (so others put their clammy hands on your tines when they grab their forks), and the atmosphere is taco shop utilitarian. But this is surprisingly good casual Mexican food. This is BETTER than most Mexican food you get in Southern California.
This kind of food is definetely off my plan, and I find it way too pricey for what you get so I won't be back soon, but I see why families might like this. There is a keiki corner, where you can park a kid, and the little girl who takes your order for her mom is a disarming little sweetheart.
After this guilt-wracked diversion though, I am back on vegan and low cal. Everyone else should go enjoy.
