      <![CDATA[Rancho Bravo is the 4th worst Mexican restaurant in the world.  It's like prison food, too much cilantro and the worst marinated meats ever.  It's nasty! White folks love it though. They pack that dirty joint all the time.  The Tortas at Barriga Llena are chilango style tortas, quite good and spicy.
