Their beans are better than my mothers, but don’t tell her that lol I’m a big believer that if the beans aren’t good the rest of the food isn’t good so I always start with the beans!“

“Had a great experience here the other day. Looks to be a family run thing. I think it’s the dad who is cooking and the son helps out and I believe the mom. Love seeing this kind of thing. Need more of it. And the food is also really good haha. I’d definitely recommend their Caldo De Res or their Enchilada plate.“

“the food was delicious, they recommend that I try the asada burrito and they did not disappoint. They had offered rice to add to my burrito and the food came out delicious. Their sauces were aIso perfect for my burrito, i enjoyed all three. i love that you can see them make the food and they have great service. definitely will be visiting again!“

“First time coming here. Buddy of mine recommended the cowboy fries with chicken. They are SPICY.. I ordered a side of beans to try it with and without.. Goes pretty good together. They have a huge menu.. You can choose your meat for the fries as well. Definitely going to be back.“

“Place is a good place to eat some Mexican food. Tacos and burritos (asada) were good and were made quickly barely had to wait to get my food. As a first time customer coming here, I was not disappointed with the food and service. Only thing I would complain (not really a complaint) is the front desk/where you order food. Menu is a bit awkward to see.“

“the food was very good 👍“

“It’s been a while since I last ate there. Still just as good 😋“

“I came in for lunch.
Food is real authentic.
Home made corn tortillas.
I ordered Chili rojo Costillas w rice n beans.
They were delicious! Them corn tortillas
I tried the green chili Costillas. They were really good also. My friend had chicken a la Mexicana. He said it was the best.“

“Love the buffet“

“This is a wonderful way to cater a fun party! The caterers arrive and set up their grill/fry station, sides, etc. We had them use a side patio which worked out great. The menu choices were fantastic, and the food was delicious! Everyone commented on how delicious the tacos, quesadillas and potato taquitos all were. Definitely recommended!“

“I love the Huevos Rancheros. My husband loves the Cameron Mojo De Ajo. The restaurant is a bit old but look past that and enjoy the food and service...the lady server and i believe her husband is the chef but both are very attentive. I always come back to this place to feel the welcome and to eat.“

“I was at work the other day, hadn’t packed a lunch and was tired of the usual stuff I get in the area. I text my wife asking what for a recommendation and she told me about Taco Burger Place. She said it’s local, has good reviews, and something different than what I would normally get at lunch. I decided to give it a shot. It’s very hole-in-the-wall, so I know it would be great. I ordered five tacos (two fish, two al pastor and a carne asada). It was about 20 minutes before they were ready but I didn’t mind because they were being made fresh. Got back to work and devoured them. In order, my preference was the fish tacos, then the al pastor and then the asada - all really good, though. I will be back at some point and try some of the other items on their menu (especially looking forward to the breakfast burrito). Come check them out - the lady behind the counter was also super kind.“

“Quick. Delicious. Affordable. Ample outside seating.

I needed a quick lunch fix and found this local spot with great reviews. I got the flautas and asada tacos. Both were delicious and fresh. Prices were good too. Will be back.“

“I've been coming here since moving to El Monte 16 years ago. The food is always fresh and tasty.“

“I think this place is great ! The food has that great Mom and Pop Restaurant feel and taste. I never really wait here long even if there's a line , also when it's busy the quality doesn't go down! My wife has been coming here since she was in highschool and then she told me about it and fell in love and have been coming here ever since, for burgers , grilled cheese , tortas , asada fries , chile rellenos! The prices make sense, I hope I can bring my kids here in the future.“

“I am not a big fan of mariscos. This is one of the best mariscos spots I actually enjoy. I highly recommend the shrimp and fish tacos, the camarones dinamitas, camarones de cucarachas, Coctel de Camaron, the aguachiles is actually one of the best sauces I've actually tasted, not to mention there other Mexican dishes they have on the menu. I also rented the hall for events and the menu for their catering services are good as well and the hostility from dining in and renting the hall has been phenomenal. Anyone wanting to eat good mariscos I highly recommend this place“

“I dug this genuine tiny little spot in El Monte.The hospitality was all love. The place is soooooo small you have to share a tsbel with strangers which makes for new conversations & dialect.The 3 women that were there doing everything communicated with each other like my Tia's & cousins did back in the day. They made the most of everything they did with love & happiness. Is it the best, by far but is sure did make my heart warm my soul happy and my stomach full. I had the flautas con Pappas( flour tortillas deep fried with mashed potatos?), fully dressed.Everyone else there had steak picado which made me want to go back and see why, and I definitely will.“

“i think they have delicious food menu and fast service i love there tortas are delicious 😋 i recommend this place to everyone in our Neibor hood !😊“
