Tortas Ahogadas in the Bay Area (San Jose)?

Question

Micheladas or in the US the now upcoming Chavelas are goood, but looking for a place for TORTAS AHOGADAS has been crazy. No where or place in San Jose, California sells these Ahogadas and its funny cause the majority of the population are from Jalisco. Anyone can help find a place?

Answer 1

When I was working on the east side a few years ago there was a place near Lucy’s Tamales on South White road that we ate at often.  It was a friendly family ran type of business.  I seemed to remember that they had Tortas Ahogadas with a sauce that had a good bite to it.  Not the tomato paste that I have had elsewhere.  Sorry I can’t remember the name and it has been a few years so I’m not even sure it is there but it may be worth a try.
