We found ourselves facing an uphill battle on New Years Day, Rose Bowl Parade, no where open, raining, morale was at an all time low.
Walking down the road we stumbled upon Guisados. BOOM saved the day. Elite breakfast burritos, elite service, and some of the most pristine/fresh limes I’ve ever seen in my days.
Modelos on deck as well. What a time. What an establishment.

Celebrating 15 years of Guisados the only way you should — by eating our way through their Pasadena location🤤🎉 From OG classics to refreshing sips, this spot continues to prove why it’s an LA staple.
We kicked things off with their aguas frescas, the perfect balance of sweet + refreshing. Then dove straight into their ceviche, bright, citrusy, and loaded with flavor in every bite.
Next up: the chicken tamale — soft, steamy, comforting, and everything you want in a tamal done right💛
But the real star? The OG Mini Taco Sampler. A little lineup of all their greatness in one plate. My top picks: 🌶 Mole Poblano — rich, complex, and slightly sweet 🔥 Chicharrón — melt-in-your-mouth tender with all that slow-braised goodness 🌮 Bistek en Salsa Roja — bold, saucy, and full of flavor
If you haven’t been to Guisados yet, consider this your sign. And if you have… you already know the obsession is real🫶🏼

Consistently delicious. Spacious place. Nice staff . Prices aren't clearly shown, if at all, which is not great. Order some food and roll the dice on the price.

I like the Habanero sauce. Everything I've tried has been good. Try the Horchata Cold Brew, it's delicious

I love the cochinita pibil, kinda of sweet to be honest. Shrimp tacos were chef kiss too, but be aware are spicy! I was crying and I considered myself good eating spicy. Beautiful music in Spanish and the fact that they have parking was worth the hour driving from Orange.

This is a great Mexican restaurant with great drinks, I recommend this place
I had a breakfast Chuleta burrito. First of all that is not a burrito at least not the size of it. It’s more like a taco. It had no flavor whatsoever and to top it off expensive. I have eaten at this restaurant in the past and the food was very delicious in the past now the food has no flavor. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Some of the best tacos and service (which is weird to say for a fast casual type place) I’ve had. The cochinita pibil was my personal favorite but you really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, they have samplers with 6 mini tacos and the first one I got was so good I went back to get another so I could try the rest. 12 mini tacos later, I am very impressed, full, and grateful for the staff seeming to take a very genuine interest in making sure we had a great time. I will absolutely go out of my way to come here next time I’m in town.

Great customer service from the cashier and food was delicious. Plenty of spots in the parking lot. There is seating inside and outside, which were both clean and inviting. The food came out quick and was high quality.

Guisados in Los Angeles is a standout destination for anyone who appreciates authentic flavor and a relaxed dining atmosphere. Their vegetarian options are thoughtfully crafted, bursting with rich spices and satisfying textures that go far beyond standard fare. The outdoor seating is casual yet inviting—perfect for soaking up the local vibe while enjoying a fresh horchata. Though they don’t accept reservations, the line moves at a steady pace, and the cashier was notably courteous and attentive. This spot delivers a vibrant, flavorful experience every time.
