El Portón

San Marcos has a number of small comedors, serving the hungry Ave Maria student population. One of the most popular is the tiny El Portón, just outside the main gate of the college. At El Portón, the daily specials include spaghetti primavera and baked chicken and a full plate costs between C$35 to C$55. Don’t feel like fighting the students for a bench? Head through the spotless kitchen to the handful of tables on the back patio. El Portón also serves a good selection of breakfast dishes (from 6 to 10 a.m.), such as pancakes, French toast and omelets. The restaurant is open from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily.
