We ordered the Pastor Burrito and placed the order at the counter before finding a seat. The burrito itself came out a bit smaller compared to most burritos I usually get. Flavor-wise, the biggest downside was the strong sour taste, which unfortunately overpowered the overall experience. Even the sauce served on the side had the same sour profile, making it harder to fully enjoy the meal. Sadly, this wasn't the most pleasant burrito experience for us.

I placed my order over the phone and it was ready by the time I arrived, which was nice. The burrito itself wasn't too big, but it was actually pretty filling. It had a good ratio of meat to rice and beans, and they use whole beans. For the size of the burrito, I was surprised by how much carne asada they packed in there compared to everything else, which is definitely a plus. The carne asada was flavorful and had some nice crispy bits that were honestly really tasty. It also came with limes and hot sauce on the side.

Appetizers were delicious (shrimp ceviche/camarón picado & Camarones Sarandeados) chili sauce was, tasty, buttery & spicy) we Loved it! Although did pay for every refill had over 4 between our party. I ordered an entree consisting of shrimp sautéed w/ peppers, onions, garlic & topped w/ melted cheese. Served w/ rice, beans & salad. The entree had no flavor, perhaps a pinch of salt, more garlic & squeeze of lemon. Rice was mushy. Refried beans were the star of the show! Overall entree gets a 2 & beans 5. I will come back for a bean/cheese burrito & beer cuz their beans rock. I'll give it another chance. Stay tuned....

The waitress was a young lady and didn't seem to care about us, was only attentive to the Latinos. They forgot to give us plates, salsas, lemons. When asked why the food was taking so long, she said "we are busy". The young guy in the kitchen was better and apologized for the slow service, but still very slow. Took 43min to get our food and togo. The max capacity was 5-6 tables. By the time we waited it was getting more people in. Food was good, but they didn't have soups. A big disappointment with the service. Not professional, girl just rude and rolled her eyes. A bit of humbleness, and faster service would have been better experience. The ambiance was alright, nothing fancy, local business. They spoke only Spanish, which I speak fluently. I left tip on the table. Probably not going back if service doesn't improve.

I got their jamaica and orange drinks, rice and beans, jamon torta, and chile verde and carnitas tacos dorados to try. My grandma also got herself a carne asada burrito which was decently sized but was mostly beans and she said the meat was kinda tough. This was my first time trying a Jamaica drink and it reminded me of cranberry juice. And The orange drink pretty much just tasted like a non bubbly Fanta. Oh you can also get one free refill on them if you want there. Yall know I'm a bean fiend and these beans were creamy, smooth, earthy, and seasoned but still let the beans shine. #beanfiendapproved The rice was super flavorful, a bit tomatoy, savory, and yummy. The jamon torta had mayo, crunchy shredded lettuce, diced tomato, thick cut deli like meat, plenty of melty cheese, all on a soft a bit sweet bun. Was actually way more flavorful and yummy than I thought it would be. The tacos had a decently griddled crisp chewy corny corn toritilla and plenty of meat. The carnitas were savory but kinda oily and a bit dry. but The chile verde MNM. Big chunks of juicy tender melt in your mouth flavorful meat. They also gave me some bright, acidic, a bit spicy salsas that tasted pretty similar just the red one was a little more tomatoey? But Overall this place was lowkey pretty good. Carnitas burrito $9.50 Jamon torta $9.50 Tacos dorados $2.50 each Rice and beans side $2 each Jamaica drink $2 Orange drink $2

The building itself sets the tone with its cool 60s look, almost like a vintage Wienerschnitzel, with that classic roadside charm that makes you feel like you've found a neighborhood staple. This is a cash only place, but the prices are affordable for both the quality and the generous portions you get. It is homestyle Mexican food done right. No frills, nothing fancy, just well seasoned, satisfying dishes that hit the spot. We ordered the Asada Burrito, Asada Fries, and the Chile Verde plate. All three were excellent. The burrito was packed (tons of beef!) and flavorful without being too greasy, the asada fries had that perfect balance of crisp fries and meat, and the chile verde plate was rich and generously-portioned. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. We left full and happy, and we plan to come back. Tacos Los Mismos is a great find in El Monte and well worth the stop.
