Practical notes

Check the hours before you go, as several places open only on certain days or close early on Tuesdays. Pizzas Hot's is the only entry recorded as wheelchair accessible, and Comida Corrida "El Antojo" is recorded as not accessible. For La 360, the access information is limited, so it is worth calling ahead on the phone numbers where they are given.
