In brief: It's pretty good, but everything kinda tastes the same due to their smoke treatment.

Every day since it opened, the lunch line at Tres Carnes sneaks out the front door, a handful of people patiently waiting outside. We took a turn today, taking two rice bowls to go. They are all the rage up here in the Flatiron, rice bowls that is. Pick your meat, your rice, your beans, your add-ons and you're all set to go. The meat is nice and smokey, just as advertised, and the meal pretty filling if you don't decide to save the other half for lunch later this week.
