I’m a regular for their breakfast burrito in the morning ? place is always clean, staff is friendly and we share laughs, bathrooms key available upfront (no need to ask for it), and the horchata is so good ?

Very average ambiance and service. Woman at counter taking orders was ignoring me and didnt want to give me restroom keys. Despite mentioning my order was to stay, I received a togo bag. Not going to return. Burrito was average too.Lots of local people randomly standing around or even occupying seats with no food - felt very much out of place.

Flavor is great, prices are reasonable. The carnitas were a bit dry, and I don't mean crunchy. Great customer service.

I moved from San Jose 14 years ago (I'm back) but the only place I would eat when I came back for visits is Lorena's Ive been their customer since it was a taco truck on the east side and thru the years as they progressed from truck to hut to two restaurants. And as sad as it is to know the original Burt many years ago its good to know the flavor did not and Lorena's will continue to be the only burrito spot I go to... Others have tried to get me to switch but no matter what it never compares to Lorena's

We ordered 8 tacos de cabeza and were grossed out by the meat. I thought it was chille seeds from the salsa but realized these yellow ridges were on the meat. I never had meat that looked like the meat they served us. Surely they wouldn't give us spoiled meat. But I shouldn't have to question that.. it just didn't taste right after the first bite. Would not recommend.*Update*Still was the worse Cabeza I have ever tasted. That's why I gave it one star.

Don’t listen to Ashwin re: sauces. The salsa roja is the best ever. Super smoky, tangy, a punch in the mouth. And the salsa verde is very smooth; it drapes anything especially the carnitas with love.

Uy

I think it’s time they retired. And fair warning, not a place you can hit up daily for food, they’re going to be weird about it. Some other places don’t mind! Please check other low reviews ??‍♀️ I’m not dealing with their ignoranceAnd this is really funny but this is their thing. This one girl came up to them and said the meat was wrong, the guy with threw the meat 3 inches near the trash and put the correct meat on it ? and this point I’m not even shocked anymore!!! It’s sssooo funny.
