The deal: This fast-casual Mexican joint in Fort Lauderdale makes its tacos, burritos, enchiladas, and more with ultrafresh ingredients.

What you get: Nothing on the menu costs more than $10, including

burritos and tacos made with fresh seafood like shrimp and mahi-mahi.

TWE puts a lot of work into its vegetarian offerings too, adding

seasoned tofu and beans.

We tried: The Bob ($7.49), a huge burrito overflowing with just

about every ingredient you could ask for. Grilled steak gets cozy with

yellow rice, black beans, jack cheese, salsa, guacamole, lettuce, and

sour cream. Did we mention everything tastes remarkably fresh?

Mahi-mahi tacos ($6.99) come with big fillets of grilled -- not fried

-- fish. The salsa bar has five varieties, and chips are

complimentary too.

Bonus Points: The quirky movies TWE plays on its wall-mounted big screen are a fun compliment to the food.
