Yesterday I went to Conejito's to satisfy my enchilada craving. Man, this place was great - cheap food (cheap as in served on paper plates and all meals are less than $5). You can also get plates of taco's (four at a time) for $3. Their chips & salsa is excellent too. Well worth the drive down to 6th & National. If you want something a bit more upscale, you might want to just check around the corner and visit La Perla. I ate there last year when my father visited and I've got to say it wasn't that bad -- margaritas are pretty good although it's bit more of a bar than a restaurant, at least where I sat anyways.
At any rate, if you're just looking to pick up a burrito for the road, I can't say enough about Chipotle which is quite honestly one of my favorite places to eat. Their burritos are huge, the flavor and spice is amazing, everything is cooked fresh each day, and their chicken is organically friendly. Check it out the next time you're in a rush.
And if you're not in a real Mexican mood but something close, try out Cubanita's the next time you're downtown. It's a great place for lunch although a little pricey for a lunch but if it's on the company dime - who cares? I highly suggest their Cuban sandwiches and empanadas (chicken, beef or spinach). They're pretty quick for lunch too. But they're also great for an evening affair and its just as lively, I'd recommend their mohitas to go with your dinner.
