Time Out says

You can order a decent version of these Puebla-style tortas at your neighborhood taco truck, but you’d miss out on the perfectly constructed, absolutely gargantuan creations at this Van Nuys lunch staple. Stuffed with ultra-ripe avocado, queso fresco, salsa, onions and your choice of meat (or tofu), Don Adrian’s sandwiches punch well above their weight class, especially once you throw in the supplemental Oaxacan string cheese. The milanesa lomo de puerco (a thin, crispy flattened piece of pork loin) and beef milanesa are go-to orders if you’re a first timer here, but you can also diversify later on with queso de puerco (pork head cheese), pata de res (beef tendons) and cecina adobada (a salted, dried meat).
