25 Best Mexican Restaurants in West Covina

“Very nice and good service“

“🔥 Two Chiles Rellenos — El Pilon Market & Restaurant 🔥
📍 322 S Glendora Ave, West Covina, CA 91790

Originally $10.95 — now $15.95 — and still absolutely worth going back.

This plate ranks in the Top Ten Chiles Rellenos I’ve experienced across the entire country.
From New Orleans, Louisiana to Biloxi, Mississippi,
from Erie, Pennsylvania to Washington D.C.,
Bar Harbor, Maine to NYC,
Madison, Wisconsin to St. Paul, Minnesota,
Bismarck, North Dakota to Denver, Colorado,
Santa Fe, New Mexico to Phoenix, Arizona,
Las Vegas, Nevada to Pasadena and Covina, California —

I’ve walked the map and tasted many, but this one stands out.

Perfectly battered, generously filled, flavorful without being greasy. The texture, temperature, and seasoning were exactly right. The rice and beans were fresh and authentic Corn Tortillas FRESHLY MADE— NO SHORTCUTS.

This wasn’t just a meal — it was a moment along my Sovereign Person Pathway. A side journey of spirit, hunger, memory, and meaning. The kind of food that finds you right where you are and reminds you of where you’ve been.
El Pilon is a gem. Whether you’re local or walking your own journey across America — this stop is flame-worthy. Don’t miss it.

“Feels like my Tia Maria is back there cooking. You know that one Tia that can cook anything. Food smelled so good i forgot to take a pictute. Everything is amazing. The ceviche. The tacos the breakfast the chill relleno. The campechana. The fish tacos are fire!!!!“

“I had the cheese and chicken enchiladas plate. Damn near perfect! Wow! They can make the rice a little better but unbelievable. Authentic, delicious Mexican food. It's a little hole in the wall restaurant but it's got booths and it's very clean. The people there are very nice. Service was fast. Highly recommend.“

“Not recommended FOR BREAKFAST BURRITO‼️ Very disappointed this Morning 01/18/24 with this chorizo burrito 🤦🏻‍♀️🤨 I ask no cheese but is not well done cooked on top of that if they add beans will be more saggy burrito 😝 bad quality chorizo too many hard parts not eatable like tendons type I pointed with arrow/ my only $11 wasted should be my breakfast and lunch there 😔- I’m tired of American breakfast sandwiches/ bad choice today 😖“

“real life street tacos“

“We had a wonderful experience at La Fogata Grill. I had a poblano chili stuffed with beef, raisins, almonds, pomegranate seeds and served with walnut cream sauce. Really unique and delicious. My husband had the mole enchiladas. He loved it. Service was excellent! We will definitely eat here again.“

“MUCHAS GRACIAS ☺️ X SU ATENCIÓN LA COMIDA EXCELENTE 👍comida al momento y súper deliciosa ♥️😘😘😘“

“This place is a hidden jewel. I never had a menudo like this. In my older years I seem to levitate more and more to menudo. But when you get handmade tortillas with it, omg that makes the experience 1000 times better. This place is so good I want to bring my suegra here. They have othef options but really for a Saturday morning, there is nothing better. Please support this business and pass it along to those who love good food.“

“G's Taco Spot on Wheels great food great customer service and great tasting food great price. At the West Covina Mall 2nd floor food Court.“

“Todo Es perfecto precio ,calidad , rapidez y amabilidad“

“Came on a Tuesday afternoon.

Ordered a breakfast burrito with birria and it was amazing. The chips that came with it was nice, the salsa was tasty and spicy, and the burrito was packed.

Overall would come again.“

“recently stopped by Rambos Tacos in Baldwin Park and ordered a chorizo burrito to go, and I have to say, this place exceeded my expectations.

From the moment I walked in, I noticed how clean and well-maintained the restaurant was. The dining area, counter, and overall atmosphere showed that the staff takes pride in keeping the place welcoming and comfortable for customers.

What really stood out was the service. Both employees working were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful. They took the time to answer questions about the menu and made me feel like a valued customer rather than just another order. As a gringo who works in communities like these, I know it isn't always easy walking into a new place, so being welcomed with such genuine kindness means a lot to me. I truly appreciated how comfortable and respected they made me feel. That kind of hospitality is becoming rare, and it made a great first impression.

Now for the food—the chorizo burrito was outstanding. The chorizo was packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and cooked just right. Every bite had a great balance of ingredients, and the burrito was generously sized without sacrificing quality. You can tell they care about what they serve.

The salsa deserves special recognition because it was absolutely fire. It had the perfect combination of freshness, flavor, and heat that elevated the entire meal. It wasn't just an afterthought on the side—it was the kind of salsa that keeps you coming back for more.

What makes Rambos Tacos special is the combination of excellent food, genuine customer service, and attention to detail. It's the type of local spot that feels like a hidden gem, where the staff cares about the customer experience and the food speaks for itself. Baldwin Park is lucky to have a place like this.

If you're looking for authentic, flavorful food and a welcoming atmosphere, I highly recommend Rambos Tacos. I'll definitely be back for another chorizo burrito and plenty more of that amazing salsa.“

“Riquisimo me encanta el pollo loco“

“have been to Rero's Burrito Company several times, often for large take out orders. The food and service is excellent. I highly recommend this place. In particular, I recommend the breakfast burritos with shredded chicken WET with green sauce, I also like the esquites.“

“Don't know why I didn't check this place out sooner. Food is delicious. Looks like it's closed most of the time but took a chance and stopped by and glad I did. First time I had the carne asada tacos so flavorful and the next time had the super fries. Highly recommend if you're around.“

“Great shrimp tacos. Hardshell tacos beef and potatoes were great also. They used cabbage instead of lettuce. That was a bit different for us, but it turns out to be very good. Their salsas are nice and hot. The only thing when looking for a new spot to eat online is that's how I found Bukanas..the online prices are not correct. I would still go back. So check it..“

“This pollo loco is putting out great food. Some pollo loco's are hit & miss, you might get dry chicken, not here. It definitely has to do with the staffs experience. They cook well and quality of food is great. Please keep them all. Every staff member here is happy, friendly and professional at the same time.“

“This place is the spot! Has great food and great customer service.“

“Kid-friendly menu! I recommend the chicken bowl!“

“I enjoy the menudo, it's really good, clean & fresh. The Mexican style breakfast are yummy as well. I had the red chili chilaquillas! I gave it 4 stars because their service is a bit slow & I think they need to be more aware of customer's needs (e.g. Refills, napkins etc,.).“

“The food was really good was delicious thanks everyone.“

“this place never disappoints. the food is amazing and great service“

“Stopped by this Taco Bell on Azusa Ave, and honestly, it’s one of the better locations I’ve been to. The staff here are polite and quick — my order was ready in just a few minutes, even though it was pretty busy. The food was fresh, warm, and perfectly made — tacos were crispy, and the burritos were nicely filled.

Prices are still super affordable, especially for how clean and well-kept this place is. The dining area looked tidy, and the drive-thru line moved faster than expected. Overall, great service, good food, and solid value for the money. Definitely one of the best Taco Bells in the area!“
