Stopped in for lunch today to this, the smallest Mexican restaurant in the world except for Taco Bite!\n\nThis La Canasta (of many, & much variation) seats just 17, at 3 tables plus 5 stools at a built-in counter.  It struck me as clean inside, & was fairly busy during my 11 AM visit, partly with takeout orders.  Ok Mexican pop music played, & the air temperature & lighting were about right.\n\nI ordered a #1 Lunch Special from one of the not-very-friendly staff members, which brought out a ground beef hard taco, a beef tamale, & a tostada.  This food was ok but not great, & you have to be careful how you order here, or the prices are HIGH!  That limits your lunch options a lot if you care anything about value, & rendered this place completely NOT SPECIAL.  Ok, it's better than Taco Bite!     :-O\n\nTaco, Tamale & Tostada Plate $5.99
