Burritos are so fricken good chicharrón is delicious. The bean and cheese delicious, and the birria the juice in it was full of flavor. Btw, to the jack*** that was being rude to the cashier just because their AC is out and we had to wait outside for our order.. Dude you're a drama queen. Next time just stay home during the summer. Anyways...I recommend this place. read more

Found this place and had to try it. The burritos are small. They're about 3 inches wide by 6 inches long. The tortillas taste like they are freshly made. I had the burrito with beef, potato and green chili. It was really good, but as I said they were small. But for the price you get what you pay for and I believe that five dollars is fair for this burrito. I wanted to try the bean cheese, I went ahead and bought one of those and it was delicious as well. If you're coming here, expecting a huge burrito you should probably order a couple. Flavor is here in each of these burritos. What I like the most is that they were small enough to order two and try different ones instead of being stuck with the same big giant burrito. Two equal the price of your average burrito somewhere else. After eating two of the small burritos, I was definitely full. Service was good! Pretty fast and easy to order. I definitely recommend trying this place. read more

I finally had a chance to come here and I could not be more happier. The burritos are excellent. The birria burrito is really good but my favorite, which I will order again, is the deshebrada - shredded beef in green chile and potato. Sooo Goood! They recommend 2-3 burritos per person but I think you can get away with 1. they are small but filling. I bought two and was happy that I had one for the next day. They heat up well in the toaster oven or air fryer. I am curious how the frijoles y queso one is. I am sure it is really good too. read more

Love to come here, I've tried a few bit different things on the menu, but my favorite is the birria con todo. It's always warm and the tortilla is delicious. I appreciate the service and the attention that I give to the food. Unfortunately, their hours are limited and they do have a small parking lot, but I've always found a spot. I've only gotten in their food to go, but it always manages to hit a craving. They are pretty quick with their service and the workers are friendly. There is open seating, lots of chairs and tables, bright lights, and water available for guests , but I find most people that I've seen are grabbing to go. It's a quick spot and if you drive-by too fast, you might miss it, but I highly recommend. read more

Burritos La Palma - My food to go! - Mexican Near Me - El Monte, California

I really enjoy this place and have not had anything that I did not enjoy. The burritos are a good size and 2 suffice, but 3 are great if I am super hungry. I love that it comes with a full Serrano pepper on the side. The tortillas are handmade. I have also enjoyed their platillo especial which is 2 birria burritos with green salsa on top. It is fabulous. I also like that they offer Mexican drinks like Coke, Sprite, and orange Fanta. The service is always great here. They are super helpful and patient, whether it is in person or over the phone. The ambiance is so relaxed and clean. I have done both eating it there or taking it to go. read more

Picked up a few burritos for lunch. They were good but definitely on the smaller side. Had to eat 2 to get full. Even my 80 year old mom ate 2 of them. For about $5 I guess you get the you pay for. Only negative was the sauce. Was that vinegar or pico de gallo? It was all liquid read more

Ran here during halftime of the World Cup final and got a chicharron and a birria, frijoles & queso to go. Both are absolutely delicious and the people could not be any nicer! Have had their food many times before, but couldn't remember if I left a review, they have earned it and then some. If you have a big appetite, I'd recommend 3 burritos. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu, everything I have had is exceptional. Thanks Burritos La Palma! read more

I got the birria burrito special. At first I didn't think it'll be enough but it's a good portion. I didn't care much for the sad salad but the beans were good. The sauce it came with was really good! It had just enough of a kick of spice. I used it all for the burrito and the beans. The burritos were packed full of birria that was juicey and savory. I'd return here again. read more

Burritos La Palma - Birria burrito special - Mexican Near Me - El Monte, California

This place is always guaranteed goodness in a tiny but mighty burrito. I come here a lot and my choices vary between the chicharron, chicken tinga, beans and cheese.... hm - it looks like I've named almost all their burritos. Lol!! Service is always prompt, the facility is clean, owners / managers are always friendly, and flavors are super consistent. The salsa is amazing - so good it's almost drinkable and the little Serrano chile is the compliment! And the hand made tortillas are awesome! Others might say they know of places with bigger burritos. I'll tell you - bigger isn't always better. These dense and flavor packed morsels are more filling than you realize. During the pandemic this place was open and again - service was prompt, friendly, and consistent! read more

Burritos La Palma - Chicken tinga, beans and cheese burrito, salsa, and chilito - Mexican Near Me - El Monte, California

This place is my family's favorite spot for burritos! Burritos La Palma specializes in stewed beef (Birria) burritos served on their handmade flour tortillas. Their flour tortillas are superb! Burrito options include (6) : Shredded Beef, Green Chile Beef n Potato (Deshebrada); Shredded Beef, Cheese, Refried Beans (Con Todo); Chicken Tinga; Bean N Cheese, and Chicharron. Our absolute favorites are: the Deshebrada (shredded beef, potatoes, green chili) and the Con Todo (shredded beef, refried beans, cheese). Our kids love the bean n cheese. The burritos here are SO good! The burritos are on smaller side to reflect Mexican northern regional style of burritos (not typical California style burritos), so it's recommended to order two to three burritos per person. They are so good you are going to want to order more! They have a casual dine-in area, but we mostly do takeout. We are regulars, so naturally we love the service and owners. Burritos La Palma has expanded locations primarily in the Los Angeles area (El Monte, Highland Park, Boyle Heights); and two in the OC (Santa Ana/Costa Mesa). The restaurant has been recognized with a Michelin Bib Gourmand award. read more

Who'd have thought a skinny little burrito could be so good? Don't waste your time with one sad burrito....get THREE! Or more! I loved this little joint. Very clean. Very friendly. Very inexpensive. Try it! read more

Burritos La Palma - Bean and cheese burrito and chicken tinga - Mexican Near Me - El Monte, California

One of my favorite places for a burrito, sooo simple yet sooo fantastic. My go to is always the birra as you can never go wrong with that. On my most recent visit I only got one birra burrito as I wanted to try something new as well. I ended up getting the Torta Especial and boy was it Especial! The pork tenderloin is so thick and flavorful and the ham was amazing as well. I was so surprised how great the torta was. So go to get the amazing burritos but maybe try a torta as well. You're welcome. read more

What We Ordered: Me: -Birria $4.95 -Chicharron $4.95 -Tinga $4.95 Wife: -Birria $4.95 -Chicharron $4.95 Son: -Quesadilla $4.95 -Birria $4.95 My friend Cindy S. always has great recommendations, and she raves about Burritos La Palma. I also heard that the late Jonathan Gold listed La Palma as one of his top 5 burritos in LA, even requesting them to cater his funeral. My wife isn't a huge fan of Mexican food, but I am! She likes tacos, but not burritos, especially with rice and beans. I'm trying to change her mind, and I was hoping La Palma could do the trick. La Palma specializes in Zacatecas-style burritos, which are quite different from your average burrito - you might even question if they're burritos at all! The flour tortillas are made fresh every day; they're very soft and have a nice chew. As mentioned before, the burritos are quite small. You'll likely need at least three to feel full. I tried the birria, chicharron, and chicken tinga, and they were all excellent - I'd order them again in a heartbeat. My wife, who usually prefers Asian cuisine, also loved the birria and chicharron. In fact, she was so happy with them that she suggested we return the next day, which is how I know she really liked them! My son enjoyed both the quesadilla and the birria burrito. He especially loved the cheesy quesadilla. We will definitely be back to La Palma very soon! read more

Hands down some of the best burritos I've had just like my mother makes at home. What I like about La Palma is that it's simple, no fuss, doesn't try to please everyone just delicious simple menu. Burritos have become huge with everything imaginable stuffed in a tortilla. Here the ingredients are simple, no "super" size and the tortillas taste delicious. So many other burrito spots use rubbery and lack of flavor tortillas to stretch and hold contents. The flour tortillas here are fresh, locally made and taste delicious on their own. A true burrito test is simple beans and cheese and La Palma delivers. Try it out. read more

La Palma has a great variety of burritos, and everything I've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. The eggs were cooked perfectly, and the burrito was packed with quality ingredients. The prices are very reasonable, especially for the amount of food you get. On top of that, the service is fast and friendly, making it a great place to grab a delicious meal. I highly recommend La Palma and will definitely be back! read more

Used to come here all the time when I lived down the street. I love their tortillas here because it has a really nice fragrance and chew. I wish they gave more toppings into their burritos but I think for a quick lunch it'll do. Always ask for the Serrano chili on the side if you like spicy because it elevates the burritos so well. Self order counter and open seating. My go to order is usually deshebrada, chicken tinga, birria, and chicharron. read more

Burritos La Palma - Mexican Near Me - El Monte, California

TLDR: Handmade flour tortillas are the star--chewy and flavorful. Burrito fillings were too salty for me. Worth trying for the tortillas, but the burritos themselves were hit or miss. I was really excited to try La Palma since it's been featured on Netflix and is a Bib Gourmand spot. They're best known for their handmade tortillas, which definitely lived up to the hype--chewy, flavorful, and the highlight of the meal. I can't comment on the service or vibe, though it looks like a classic mom-and-pop burrito joint. Prices run about $4-6 per burrito, which feels a little steep, but we tried a good variety: bean & cheese, birria, chicken tinga, birria/frijoles/queso, and the two-burrito combo plate that comes smothered in salsa with beans, lettuce, and tomato. Personally, I liked the burritos on their own better than the combo since the sauce made them a bit soggy. While the tortillas were excellent, I found the meats and salsa too salty for my taste. The bean and cheese was the most balanced and enjoyable; unfortunately, they messed up our order and forgot it. However, they did throw in a birria with bean/cheese. If you're a tortilla lover, the good news is you can order them on their own. Overall, the tortillas are solid, but the fillings could be more consistent. read more

Move over Taco Bell there's a new contender for the best bean and cheese burritos. This is my go to place for everything! Don't feel like cooking dinner, I order burritos.

This is certainly my go to spot and highly recommend trying it out. read more

My husband had tried this place before, but it was my first time. He warned me that the burritos were small so we ordered three to share, and I also ordered a cheese quesadilla. I couldn't resist since it was made with a homemade flour tortilla. We ordered two of the shredded beef in green chile with potato. We also ordered one of the shredded chicken and potato. We added beans to all of the burritos. They were all delicious, but my favorite was the shredded beef. YUM! I highly recommend trying this restaurant if you're in the area. You won't be disappointed. read more

First time coming here. Parking is located in the back but it could be a bit tight for larger vehicles. Overall the restaurant is small and you could easily past it up without a GPS. The workers were friendly and the food was really good but overall the plate special could look a little more exciting as seen in photos. They should add something on top of the salad to be more appealing and not like a school cafeteria. The taste of the burrito and the Torta was really good. It is a bit pricy. I ate both of the items in the photo in one sitting. I think it was around $35 with tax and tip read more

Definitely not your typical burrito joint when you think of burritos, but this place has some pretty good hype - decided to stop by on a weekend. And even better, located super close to work. This spot is in a small plaza on Peck Road. If you drive too quickly, you can definitely miss it. Small parking lot - the place is much more spacious once you get inside. There's maybe 6-8 tables; simple menu, you get your food within minutes and you're able to leave. Burritos here are much more skinny - almost like a taquito. Decided to go with the top three that I kept seeing on Yelp. Birria, frijoles, and queso ($5.45) was probably my favorite out of the three. I really enjoyed the flavor of the birria and the added beans and cheese gave it a bit more flavor. Chicken tinga ($4.95) was second place - a little more salsa-flavor like with shredded chicken and potatoes. I thought the flavor was pretty good! And I wasn't a bit fan of the chicharron ($4.95) - these are stewed pork rinds, so it's not the crispy chicharron that I was thinking of. A bit too salty for me as well. They have salsas if you want some extra flavoring. Overall, thought the burritos were pretty good. A bit on the pricey side considering how small they are. If I was super hungry, I'd probably need 3-4 to fill me up. read more

This was my first time eating here, and what drew me in was seeing an advertisement highlighting a Michelin-star chef's rating. The service was fine, nothing extraordinary but everything ran smoothly. The burritos looked small at first, but surprisingly one was enough to fill me up. The restaurant does recommend 2-3 burritos, and honestly, they're worth it--the tortillas are made fresh in-house, which makes a big difference. There's convenient parking both in the front and plenty more in the back, and seating inside is spacious and comfortable. My personal favorite is the bean and Cheese burrito. read more

This turned out to be a great place. To be completely honest I was doubtful. With all of the social media hype and all. Awesome decision. I ordered a a chicharron burrito and deshebrada burrito. The young lady a the counter was honest and told us they were small. One for my wife and the other for myself. So good we order four more burritos to go. A+++ read more

Some parking in the front or go through the gates in the side. Interior is kept clean and tidy. Pricy for a small roll burrito, but the flavor is good and the tortilla texture is great.

Burritos La Palma - It was a game of chance trying to figure out which burrito was which. - Mexican Near Me - El Monte, California

The burritos were ok,the homemade tortillas were great!! They are really small for about 5-6 bucks. Service was ok- server was a bit bothered since I didn't leave a tip ( food was to go). Place was clean nothing to write home about. read more

Delicious food only problem is burrito is so small almost like a taquito however people are so nice and greet you when you come inside

second times the charm. first time they was closed for some reason, but finally got to try it. they got skinny burritos with your choice of filling. in my opinion, the star of the show is really their tortilla. tastes fresh and chewy and has a nice cook to it. their meats are a bit on the tougher side, which i guess isn't what i'm into. we ordered like 12. burritos to go and they provided a whole tub of salsa so props for that! overall i'd come back only if im in the area, and definitely only for the chicken tinga. that one hit! read more

Delicious burritos!!! My top recommendation is the bean and cheese burrito. It's extremely flavorful and cheesy. Small location but there's plenty of seating inside. Service was good and food came out within 5 minutes. I will be back!!! read more

This place is just OK. Nothing special about this place lacks customer service and again the food is just OK. It's a quick fix when hungry or in the area. Don't go out of your way to go to this place again. Customer Service is not that great in FOOD is just OK read more

A hidden gem in El Monte located off of Peck Road. The restaurant itself is very small and has limited parking but I never had a issue with that. This review is only for their bean and cheese burrito. I would never order a bean and cheese burrito because I don't like them. This place changed my mind and is the only place I would order a bean and cheese burrito. The tortillas are freshly made and the beans are really smooth. I just wish mine had a little more cheese in it but that's ok, the salsa made up for it. FYI, the burritos are pretty small, I usually ordered 2 for myself to be full. read more

Not that good, fast great service, great prices, just didn't taste the best, nice establishment & people

A hole in the wall authentic Mexican restaurant located off Peck road. There is seating inside but outdoor seating is not available. Also, parking is limited but there is more parking around back. Friendly service and clean establishment. I ordered the Birria burrito with a Mexican Coke. The burrito is authentic tasting but rather small in size. If you want a light meal, I suggest ordering one. However, if you are hungry, I suggest ordering one of their combination plates. read more

Burritos La Palma - Burria Burrito - Mexican Near Me - El Monte, California

Nothing amazing and way over hyped. Birria didn't have much flavor. bean and cheese was what you'd want and expect. only real plus is the homemade flour tortillas that was their saving grace, but definitely pricey for the amount of food you get. debated trying it out vs our go to spot when we're in the area, and wished we stuck with the tried and true, but gave it a shot since you never know and now i know. read more

Service is fast, space is small but it's my favorite burrito to eat before I get to the party with crappy catering!

I hope this place never goes away. The world changes: people, politics, and animals come and go. However, the burritos here will always be a source of delicious goodness. I sometimes dream about la Palma birria burritos when I'm lying in bed at night feeling really hungry. My tip is to get extra sauce if you like sauce! I use almost one small container of sauce per burrito. Service is great, and ambiance is chill. I feel happy every time I walk in because nothing changes even tho the rest of the world feels unpredictable and scary. read more

So happy we finally tried this place! I heard about it through instagram. Burritos are 10/10, my boyfriend & I got 3 burritos and it was the perfect amount. (We do split most of our food for portion control) birria, bean & cheese and shredded beef with potatoes. Very good! We will 100% come again. The cashier was welcoming and friendly, plenty of sitting area & it was clean. You can easily enjoy your food there or take it to go. Definitely recommend, planning to try the other location closer to DTLA next time. read more
