Don't expect a Taco Bell-like menu at El Asador Steakhouse at 1312 Springwells in Southwest Detroit. This place offers top-notch Mexican food, including lobster quesadillas, enchiladas verdes and other authentic dishes.
Chef Luis Garza recently added dinner trays that feed four for $50. You can't beat that, particularly if you don't want to cook for the holidays. They'll be open Thursday from 9 a.m.-7 p.m. and Christmas Day from 1-9 p.m.
Here's another reason to get carryout: Garza is donating 20 percent of his sales to the dining room employees he's had to lay off. (See menu. Phone: 313.297.2360)
The other day, Carlos Parisi, host of Detroit Digest, headed over there with our photographer and producer, Michael Lucido, to check out the family dinner for four.
