The Manhattan Beach location is the one that always brings it! Everything is very tasty and the staff is wonderful. If I'm eating in, I'll go for one of the "platos”: carnitas or carne asada. For takeout , the burritos can't be beat: "wet" or "dry”.

This place has the best steak burrito I’ve ever eaten. The vibe is so nostalgic. It’s a very small place but cool to see. Also the chips are great but the salsa is spicy so be careful

I recently visited this fantastic Mexican restaurant near Manhattan Beach and had an amazing experience! I ordered the torta carne asada, and it was absolutely delicious—packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. They also gave me a few chips with two tasty salsas, which were a great addition. The vibes and atmosphere here were super cool and welcoming. Definitely a spot I’d recommend to anyone looking for great Mexican food and a chill place to hang out!

The story of how this place came into existence, the food, the staff ALL of it is great! You can read about the history on the menu. It's a small restaurant, but we were lucky to get there at a perfect moment and found seats easily on the counter barstools. About 10 min later, it got busy, and the line started forming our the door. The cooks and server are very friendly.

This place is small but packs a punch!

The size of their burritos puts Chipotle to shame... I mean just look at the picture.

Food was great, large amounts, service was great. I totally recommend it!

Tiny place, patronage it’s 99% cacucacian and they looooove it there. (Enough said).

If you expect authentic Mexican flavors steer away from this place.
