Ercoles: Best of the Beach 2018 Bar food

“Ode to Ercoles,” by Bob White. Photo

Our winner for bar food has what is almost undoubtedly the smallest selection in the South Bay. If you like burgers, tacos, or hot dogs you’ll be right at home because that’s the whole list. The burgers and tacos use meat fresh from Manhattan Meat Market next door, and it’s top quality. The portions are generous and prices are almost comically low, making this a great dinner deal even if you don’t have a drink. You probably will, and perhaps another one to follow it because they’re modestly priced and the classic cocktails are well made. It will be more trouble deciding what to have because the selection is so much larger, but that’s a problem you probably won’t mind having.
