50 Best Latin American Restaurants near Montebello

“Great food and atmosphere“

“Me gusta la comida pero no tienen q perder el cuidado en la presentación de los platos y asegurarse q lleven todo eso es muy importante aun tengan mucha junte haser los platos con la misma cuidado de ciempre“

“Amazing food and atmosphere“

“Beautiful and inviting space to dine and hang out. Very good food and cocktails in a warm and friendly atmosphere.“

“Came here for the 1st time after years of driving by. We got the sampler knowing it was small tacos, but assorted fillings, which is perfect. Also, we ordered a pork tamale, ceviche tostada, cochinita taco, and chile relleno burrito, all items were on their cute chalk board, no prices though.
Everything we tried was delicious and fresh, some of the tacos didn't need salsa, but highly recommend you get all of them. The ceviche tostada was a refreshing bite after those spicy tacos, I almost ordered another, but had to try the rest. The tamale was crumbly(?) dough like we prefer and the chile relleno was also good in comparing it to other restaurants around there, but not as hearty as at a burrito place.
We will be returning to try other items and more ceviche tostadas.
Parking is hard to find in the area when street sweep passes, but there's a public lot a block away you might find parking or bus it.“

“Delicious, authentic Ecuadorian classics - Catherine’s (owner) grandmothers recipes. My girlfriend felt like she was back home at her mom’s table. The encebollado was fresh and clearly had been simmered for hours as it should be. The chicken in the seco de pollo fell off the bone. Best Ecuadorian in LA for sure.“

“This little gem has that nostalgic 1950s vibe, only accepting cash. There a couple of tables outside the little shack where they offer crispy bean and cheese burritos that are unbelievably good! Service is. Always with a smile. I also tried crunchy tacos and taquitos which j added cheese to and it was so yummy. There js no satisfaction like a treat from taco treat. Don't forget the hot sauce!“

“Good tacos, good flavor, 1.50 tripa tacos. Don't have parking.“

“I was in search of a good Chile Relleno Burrito and Google Maps suggested Calimex. I'm so glad it did! Easily one of the best I've ever had. The poblano chile was the star of the show. It was fresh and green, didn't taste heavily fried or buried underneath a ton of cheese. And the rice and beans packed a ton of flavor. Great flour tortilla too. It didn't look like the flour tortillas were homemade, but they were so fresh and delicious they could pass for homemade. Definitely a labor of love, the whole family is back there in the kitchen having a good time together and making incredible food. Will be back! Looked like a popular gathering spot for families and groups.“

“Authentic it reminds me of home and the service is excellent!“

“I've been coming to El Buen Gusto ever since it was in Pico Rivera on Slauson. I moved down to Laguna Beach when I was 18 and had not been back since. I was up on the Whittier side of town and saw this place. A lot of memories resurfaced and decided to stop for old time sake.
Our hostess was very welcoming, warming, attentive and funny. However she didn't know what non-fat water and gluten free ice was. Nonetheless, I ordered the Chilaquiles. The presentation and taste of my meal was something similar to what my grandma or my mom would plate. I'm glad I stopped by, I don't make it up here to this side of town that often yet my next trip up here will definitely warrant stopping by for a quick meal.
For those who live close by you're extremely fortunate to have El Buen Gusto in your neighborhood.
As for location they are located at the southeast corner of Beverly and Norwalk Blvd's. It's not that far off the 605 frwy. If you're heading east on Beverly Blvd it's on the right just as you cross Norwalk. If you're directionally challenged, it's right next door to weeny-dog.
You can't go wrong with the comfort food of El Buen Gusto.
Tell them I sent you....“

“great drinks and food! nice fun and relaxing setting“

“Went for Sunday brunch had their Taqitios and margaritas delicious. Server was a little over welmed when the place started getting busy it took about 30 minutes to get our check. But excellent place will definitely be back! Want to try their Enchiladas 😁“

“The truth is everything. Das has the best Mac n cheese and the Ribs n Brisket are the best in the West.“

“New location with excellent food and great customer service. They have the biggest monster burritos I have ever seen. I dare you to come get one and not be totally filled to the brim. Will definitely be back to get more of their great food.“

“Variedad de productos para fiestas y taqueros“

“My new favorite place! So healthy and right sized portions. This was my first visit. Easily navigated the kiosk and liked how I could customize. Food came out super quick. I had the roasted sweet potatoes and the chicken bowl with the green goddess dressing. So delicious! I will be telling my family & friends.“

“Best food all around highly recommend anything on their list they are the bomb.

Vegetarian options: They are good.

Kid-friendliness: They are so awesome with the little ones.

Wheelchair accessibility: They are awesome

Dietary restrictions: They are the best“

“Great food and filling the burritos and the quesadillas are 5.50 sorry I don't have a picture but I'm a big guy and it filled me up! The have red and green salsa, they have cilantro and onions, salsa de guacamole, rebanadas, cucumbers AND pepinos.Only reason it's 4 stars is because it was really dirty“

“Delicious menudo served with hand made tortillas! Can’t wait to come back to try the birria.“

“I absolutely love coming to Tierra Mia their drinks are always spot on just amazingly tasty! I got to try their new flan frappe today and my goodness I can't put it down! The customer service is always great super friendly staff. Place was pretty packed but they were quick with the drinks, I was not waiting forever. There's many places to sit and just enjoy the day chilling with your drink and/or significant other. There's always plenty of parking at this location so that's never an issue either.“

“Love this place, makes me feel like I went back in time...Definitely a hidden gem! The food: chicken wings, pizza, pasta, etc... any foodie would appreciate. The selection of beers � and wine � are varied and last but not least, the SERVICE, we are spoiled Everytime, the staff goes above and beyond! I highly recommend stopping there before any type of LA event.“

“This was the 3rd time I have been to this place with my father. The menudo was delicious. Every item on the menu is authentic Mexican food from the nopales con huevo to the mole just mouth watering. The ladies behind the counter are very friendly and really nice. 👍👍“

“I love the choice between fried and roasted chicken. Chicken was flavorful and good next day. I like plantains, rice and those beans were oh so good!! The yucca fries unfortunately were not, bland and didn't feel cooked thru. I ordered both a family and individual meal and requested rolls instead of tortillas. When I got home, there was only one roll and no tortillas. So insulting and luckily I had tortillas as home but i was so bummed, because the roll was really good. I'll come back, but next time. I'm making sure those damn rolls are in there!“

“Super buena me encanta tengo años consumiendo y no lo cambiaría por nada“

“Got a Perico , cheese arepa and a Taqueno.

Perico was nice, the sauce really carries the arepa. Without the sauce everything lacks flavor but has a good texture. Cheese Arepa is nice if you dip it in sauce but otherwise is a basic item that doesn't stand out. The same goes for the Taqueno, its not a bad item but it doesn't really stand out in any way. Cheese pull isn't good and in the end it reminds me of the pillberry rolled dough with some cheese in the center.

Atmosphere-wise doesn't really stand out. the Red and white color scheming is fine but doesn't stand out at all and the lack of AC means its a bit too hot for me to enjoy given the currently hot weather for the area.

All in all for the price, its a decent place to get a quick light lunch. Outside of that I find it a bit hard to recommend. The size of the Arepas is fairly small so keep in mind you may need 2 to feel decently sated appetite-wise.“

“I’ve been here a bunch of times and it’s always such a mellow and easy place to spend time with my friends. The people that work here are so real and unpretentious. Totally my type of vibe. Thanks nativo you guys are dope“

“Today is my 4th time coming here, close to my house near South Gate park. I've had breakfast 3 times & today I came for a Sopa de Gallina. I must say their food is delicious, the presentation is very appealing & their service has been consistent & pleasant. I would highly recommend you come in & try it for yourself. Thank you for the great food & service. Jose D. ?“

“Breakfast is one of my favorite meals and The Nest never disappoints. I always have great meals provided by the excellent and kind employees. It's also always filling! During the pandemic they were a welcome relief.“

“This place was great. I don't remember exactly what my coworker got maybe the carne asada but cut up in pieces but I got the Chile relleno double and even my coworker wanted a piece 🧩 lol. Everything was great from the rice to the beans topped with cheese.“

“Muy rica la comida, muchos platillos diferentes en el menú, y muy económico, panadería y variedad de productos Guatemaltecos.“

“This place exceeded my expectations. I just picked the first Peruvian restaurant in the area because I was craving this type of food and I went thinking it was just a little place with ok food. The ambience is cozy and the food was excellent. All the servers were attentive and quick to take our orders and bring food. My only complaint is that they are too far away from me so I wont be able to come often but if I do, I know is worth the hour drive!! This place is 5 out of 5 . I definetly recommend the ceviche B69 and Chiquitos Serranos“

“Hands down the BEST chicken I’ve ever had! The flavor is unmatched—juicy, perfectly seasoned, and always cooked to perfection. Every bite tastes fresh and delicious. The sides are just as good, and the portions are generous, so you definitely get your money’s worth. The staff is super friendly and the service is always quick, which makes the whole experience even better. Whether you dine in or take it to go, the quality is always consistent. If you’re craving chicken, this is THE spot—you won’t be disappointed!“

“Todo está muy rico 😋 gracias“

“Decor, Tierra Mia standard, space utilization needs to be improved. And definitely needs some maintenance and update. Looks dirty, Old and not cared for.
Menu, can you please focus on your latino base menu, cafe con leche, cortado o cubano, cafe de la olla, chocolate. Let starbucks keep half descent lattes, caramel macchiatos. Just maintain the inside and outside of your location and keep on improving bean, drink quality and
barista skills.
Hopefully owners get to read this.“

“Been coming here for a while food is GREAT. The shrimp tacos are more on the crunchy side rather than soft . No beer sold here. Prepare to be massacred by mosquitoes and its pretty much diy table clean up. Unfortunately much like everywhere else this place has fallen victim to shrinkflation. You pay more for less.The cocktail price has gone up $2 for a smaller portion and the shrip tacos went up a dollar and have less shrimp. Spent 55 for 2 people plus tip used to spend 45 including tip . Idk if it's worth paying that much anymore“

“I just came by after my dental appointment to check it out because it looked so cute inside. I ordered the detoxing juice and I wasn’t sure if I would like it but oh my goodness, the first sip was a long one because it was so good! I Wish I would have gotten the bigger size! I’m so glad me and my friend decided to just buy and try it! I definitely will be coming here again and trying out more of their menu. The owner was also very friendly! It’s a little hot inside tho! Wish I could have posted my drink too but it’s all gone now!“

“muy bien, lo recomiendo es buena. sólo que hay una que me atendió se puso un poco prepotente pero salió bien“

“My husband and I just tried this place tonight and it’s so good! We ordered the revuelta, been and cheese, and plain cheese. They were all full of flavor. Would definitely come again.“

“Had pupusas to go and they are amazing, had lots of cheeae and tasted to good wth the curtido amd tomato sauce mix in. The price and size of rbe pupusas are a good deal.. I highly recommend this place. First time tasting their pupusas and coming back.“

“I recommend this place they have nice service and the food is good I love to come hear with my family“

“Buena comida buenos precios hasta las 11 pm en Bell Gardens“

“It's was good I liked it. I will definitely go again.“

“The food and the fresh flavor waters and the different salsas are just as good as if you were in Mexico.... Simply amazing!!!. Even if you see a lot of people wanting outside the service is fast and most of the waiters are really nice... Very well trained.“

“I recommend this place they have nice service and the food is good I love to come hear with my family“

“Best cemitas burritos arabe bomb. For sure I’ll come back“

“Well, first advice, bring cash because they charge for using a card the food is delicious, the prices are good, the customer service is good, 4 stars, very nice decoration, you have to order in front, ok, not at the tables, it's strange for my name, they wanted to serve me at the tables, I ordered in front and They charged me Hai himself then notice that the others were fine ?“

“Pollo a la Braza, Lomo Saltado, Ceviche y la Jalea de pescado son mis favoritos!!! Somos clientes desde hace cerca de 30 años, desde el primer día que abrieron.“
