44 Best Mexican Restaurants in Pico Rivera

“Their steak and eggs are very tasty and a great price every time! Also suggested to the owner the last time I came to take away the sandbags by the front door because you should always think of your business as doing what appeals to the ladies! Because if you get the girls, you got the guys! He got it and today the sand bags are gone which is the first of a few simple suggestions that I have that together will make a disproportionate impact! Stay tuned.“

“Don’t let the simple sign outside fool you - this place is a total gem! I would pass by it often not knowing they serve incredible shrimp tacos and burritos which are made fresh, served warm, and with great-quality ingredients. Everything tastes amazing and the prices are very fair. Definitely recommend!“

“excellent food, very fresh and tasty!!!“

“I’ve been coming to Taco Boy on Slauson for their taco special that comes with a soda
( it’s my sons favorite) The prices are very reasonable, especially compared to other Mexican restaurants, and the food has always been good. I haven’t tried much of the menu yet, but I also haven’t heard anyone complain about the quality.

One thing to keep in mind is the wait time. Even if you call your order in ahead of time, expect about a 20-minute wait. I’d recommend ordering ahead with that in mind if you’re in a hurry.

My only real criticism is the staffing. The young man working the front is expected to do way too much by himself. He’s taking orders, handling payments, answering the phone, and bringing hot food out to customers dining in. That’s a lot for one person, and it’s not fair to him or to the customers waiting.

This isn’t a complaint about the employee—he works hard. It’s a suggestion for management. Hiring one more person to help at the front would make a huge difference. Service would be faster, the phone could actually be answered more consistently, and the employee wouldn’t have to juggle so many responsibilities at once.

Overall, I’d still recommend Taco Boy for the good food, generous portions, and fair prices. I just hope management gives their hardworking front counter employee the support he deserves.“

“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.“

“Sin duda alguna Es La Mejor Birria su buen sabor Hace Que te Sientas Como en tu Tierra! Jalisco❤️“

“Came here today for my very first time and let me tell you, the food was delicious. The service was amazing, I love how attentive and friendly they were. The restaurant was very clean the food was soooo good, I had the chilaquiles with meat and eggs. This is a hidden gem I wish more people knew about.“

“It took an hour from when I called and placed the order to receive my food. They told me it would be ready in 15 min. I get there in 10 min. Waiting line for 10 min to pay. People that paid after me got their food before. I waited an extra 40 min to get my food. Until I went to the lady at the register and they didn't even prepare my food. All I got was 1 shrimp tostada and 1 shrimp taco. . The food was good but the service is horrible.“

“Hey Neighbors,
Christmas 2025 I became a customer and ordered 2 doz red pork & 2 doz green chicken and cheese. This week we ordered 1 doz red pork & 1 doz green chicken and cheese. The quality of the meat, the balance of maza to meat, is worth every bite!!! However, what will hook you is the flavorful taste. You know like your abuela, or tia would make back in the day. You Remember, I know you do! Anyway, talk is cheap! Thank You Lillian for the loving labor YOU put into your taste tamales. Also, for bringing back beautiful memories of the Women in my Family that sacrificed so much. Sending God's Blessings to ALL ✝️“

“Visited La Mano Tortilleria recently and honestly had such a great experience. The moment you walk in, the smell of fresh tortillas, carnitas, and homemade Mexican food hits you immediately and makes you hungry before you even order. The restaurant has a casual and authentic ambiance that feels very welcoming and traditional. You can tell this is the kind of place locals love because everything feels homemade and fresh.

The food was absolutely delicious. The carnitas were juicy, tender, and full of flavor with the perfect crispy edges. Their handmade tortillas make such a huge difference and taste fresh off the grill. We also tried the consommé with the tacos and it was rich, flavorful, and perfect for dipping. The chicharrón was super crispy and fresh, and the guacamole tasted homemade with fresh ingredients. One thing I really loved was the huge variety of salsas they offer. From spicy red salsa to creamy avocado salsa and molcajete style salsa, every option added so much flavor to the meal.

The portions are generous and everything tasted authentic and high quality. Even the rice and sides were flavorful and fresh. The drinks paired perfectly with the food and completed the experience.

The staff was also very friendly, patient, and helpful throughout the visit. Even though the restaurant was busy, the service was fast and organized, and everyone made us feel welcome. The atmosphere felt lively, clean, and comfortable, making it a great spot for lunch with friends or a casual family dinner.

Definitely recommend La Mano Tortilleria if you’re looking for authentic Mexican food, fresh handmade tortillas, flavorful carnitas, amazing salsa options, and friendly service. This is one of those places you’ll keep craving after you leave.“

“I highly recommend this restaurant, the food was amazing and the service was fantastic.“

“Friendly service. This is one of our favorite places to stop for delicious Mexican food. We especially love their chile verde burrito!“

“Saw this place on Instagram it looked good so decided to give it a try had the chilaquiles red sauce eggs sunny side up and chorizo it was tasty sauce was mild and chips were light and crunchy even with the sauce eggs cooked it has inside seating and a small outdoor area place is busy ya its that good.“

“I just walked out with a ham breakfast burrito and a torta de al pastor. They were so fresh and everything was cooked just on point! The salsas both green and red have a really great flavor. I haven’t been to this location in years so I had no idea it was new owners but I’m happy I tried it before judging it based off the reviews here. 10/10 customer service was great too!! I will be back 😊“

“First time here. Tried 3 different meats/tacos...asada, carnitas and lengua. The lengua was by far the best lengua taco I have ever had!! There were notes of pineapple, it was so tender and flavorful mmm! Asada was well seasoned and tasted very good as well. I'll pass on the carnitas next time, it was dry and no flavor. And they have a good red sauce that's not too hot and adds a nice little kick and flavor. A little over $2 for most tacos, and it was .$3.50, I believe, for lengua (worth it). Seven tacos = $20“

“I love the place everyone is nice people“

“I love the food here but recently I ordered a special quesadilla w/quacamole, a soft tostada w/guacamole, a hard shell taco & a order of taquitod w/extra w/quacamole + extra green chili to go. My total was $45. & Cents...I should have asked for the receipt because I think I was overcharged.“

“Great Mexican restaurant that pleasantly surprised me from the very first visit. The atmosphere here is very warm and lively, with a bright interior and friendly staff. You can immediately feel that the place was created with care and attention to detail. The servers are attentive, take orders quickly, and are always ready to help with the menu.

The food is truly high quality: the tacos are juicy and flavorful, the guacamole is fresh, and the salsa is rich and nicely spicy. I especially liked the fajitas — the meat was perfectly cooked, served hot, and came with plenty of sides. The portions are generous, so you definitely won’t leave hungry. The drinks were also great: the margarita was well balanced, not too sweet, with a nice lime flavor.

Prices are quite reasonable for this level of quality and service. It’s clear that fresh ingredients are used and that the dishes are prepared right before serving. This is a great place both for meeting friends and for a cozy dinner for two.

I’d also like to note the cleanliness and order — it’s very pleasant to be in the dining area, everything is neat and well maintained. Service is fast even during busy hours, which says a lot about how well the place is run.

Overall, the restaurant left only positive impressions. I’d love to come back again to try more items from the menu. I definitely recommend it to all lovers of Mexican cuisine. This is a place you won’t hesitate to bring friends or out-of-town guests to. Thanks to the restaurant team for the delicious food and great experience!“

“Es un lugar maravilloso donde su comida es la mejor con un Sansón estupendo“

“It was amazing!! I like your food but many of your restaurants have very careless (and rude) employees sad to say. But it was a nice experience all the way yesterday when I went to the store in Slowson/Passon at Pico Rivera, the manager Mr. Francisco went the extra mile not just with me but all of the guests. The cook offered to fix something specially for me, I tell you it was great!! Thank you!!“

“That was the best burrito I've ever had in my life! The red and green sauce was like nothing I've ever tried before! I highly recommend it!“

“Great spot for menudo!! So delicious and homemade . I don't understand why this is not a 5 star place

“Best Guadalajara food in LA 🙌🏼👏🏼💕“

“If you love refreshing drinks, this place is a must-visit! Their Agua Frescas are absolutely delicious, and one of the best things is that they let you mix flavors—half and half—so you can create your own perfect combo. My personal favorites are the Cucumber (Pepino) and the Watermelon (Sandía) with Lemon (Limón)—so crisp, fresh, and perfect on a warm day. I actually drive all the way from Rosemead Boulevard by the mountains just to get them, and whenever my son is in town, we make it a point to stop by and enjoy these drinks together. The flavors are always fresh, the service is friendly, and the experience is worth the trip every time. Highly recommended! 🥒🍉🍋🥤“

“If you never had King Taco, great carne asada tacos sopes etc. Not like these street vendors using cheep chuck nervy and pricer that this tax paying established serves. King Taco also wont break, but will if you order too much. Great fresh waters pineapple excellent! 😜 Red salsa😋🔥“
