Fantastic flavor, great attention to detail and quality ingredients make this my favorite breakfast spot in the area. Get a coffee from the shop next door and it's a whole delicious experience. The service is good if not fast, but I'm happy with the freshly prepared burritos. Their sauces/salsa are also excellent and full of flavor. They are take out only with no seating area except for some plastic stools on the sidewalk.

Tried Chori Man in San Pedro and it was an interesting experience. The variety of chorizo options is cool and my friend and I went with the maple chorizo and the chicken chorizo. Neither of us loved our choices once we tried them. The sweetness in the maple chorizo did not blend well for me and the overall flavor was on the lower end. Still edible but not something I would go back for.
They charged a dollar for a cup of water which felt absurd. The total came out to sixteen dollars which felt high for what it was.
Overall, the food was fine but not something I would reorder and the service issues made the visit less enjoyable.

Their food is absolutely amazing. Serving staff is local and friendly. There is no dining room, so if you are looking for that, you are out of luck. They do have chairs and stools that they leave out for people go use though.

Mixed Experience, But Worth Another Visit
On our last morning in San Pedro, we were craving breakfast burritos and decided to try Chori Man based on its great reviews and proximity to our hotel.
We ordered the green chorizo sausage egg burrito and the pork chile verde breakfast burrito. Unfortunately, the green chorizo burrito was underwhelming—the sausage lacked flavor and didn’t enhance the burrito. While the burrito itself was fresh, warm, and hearty, the chorizo didn’t deliver the punch we were hoping for.
On the other hand, the pork chile verde burrito was flavorful, meaty, and well-balanced. It was fresh and satisfying, and definitely the highlight of the meal.
While we didn’t quite get the full “Chori Man” experience this time, we’re open to coming back and trying other menu items. The place has potential, and we’re hopeful the next visit will be more impressive.

A delicious breakfast burrito that really hit the spot. Runny eggs were perfect. The owner was outside talking to everyone, showing a lot of pride in his store and food, that was really great to see ☺️

LOVE all of the food items we've tried here, but be warned that it isn't often open during the listed hours. We've eaten here twice, but have tried to eat here four times, so it's been closed (during hours listed as open) double the amount of times that we've actually been able to enjoy it. The service was great when they were there!

House-made chorizo that’s smoky and not greasy. I tried the green chorizo burrito and still think about it. Tortillas are warm and pliable. Small space, so be ready to wait a bit. Totally worth it.

Unfortunately they are racist to brown people. They wouldn't let my friends mom in. She's dark brown, they wouldn't let her in the door asking her what she was going to buy and when she said she was browsing they told her she couldn't even go in. They had no problem letting people with lighter skin completions in to browse and buy but they had a problem with her. So disappointing to be Mexican and hear about a Mexican food spot being colorist.

When I tell you I had the best chile verde of my LIIIIIIFE here!!! Hands down, without a question, the best. The meat was sooo tender!!! I couldn't stop eating it! Soooo delicious. Everything on their menu is amazing!!! The burritos, breakfast sandwich, the salsas, the beans, house made tomatillo ranch, chips with their own house made chorizo seasoning, scratch made soups! OMG and did I mention their jalapeno relish! Slap that on everything!

This was my first time at Chori-Man in San Pedro. The server was very nice and the service was great. I got there at the end of the day, bought a bean wet nachos (can't remember the name for that dish) to go. My daughter got a burrito and we thought our food was just okay. From what I could tell, it's just carry out at that location. There wasn't anywhere to sit outside. However, I like where it's located... in a neighborhood surrounded by homes (rather than businesses).

Since opening, I treat myself to a maple habanero burrito every time I make a visit back to my hometown of San Pedro. Shops like this make me proud that San Pedro is home.
On my last visit home, I decided it was time to bring my cooler bag and load it up with chorizo links to enjoy once back in Pennsylvania and gift some to a friend. I waited until closer to departure date and in this waiting, there was an unfortunate equipment malfunction so they had to close the shop for a few days. I left a sad comment on Instagram and the owner read it and sent me a DM and went above and beyond to be sure I returned to PA with a full cooler bag of chorizo.
I know this is a one off situation and they might not be able to go above and beyond all the time, but this time they were able to and I appreciate that level of care and service for their customers.
This is why I will forever treat my self to a delicious burrito every visit home. I do what I can do to be sure small business like Chori Man stay alive for all to enjoy!!
