Mexican Xiaolongbao what if burritos were soup pretty good, would buy again/10. Get it for the 2 for 1 deal on Ubereats so it's like 2 burritos for 7 dollars, pretty worth read more

Beef all the way... Been wanting to try this place for a while, after seeing all the hype on Instagram. I got the chicken tinga, con todo (birria with beans and cheese) then the beef with green chile. The tortillas were great, fresh and flour. Both beef ones were super flavorful. Chicken tinga was my least favorite of the three, due to it being the least flavorful/spicy, but it was still good. Their salsa is also wonderful, and their Diet Coke was carbonated and was giving McDonalds, which is a compliment for those that know. I will be back! read more

This is a restaurant who up until 2023, got a Michelin Star every year. Suddenly it stopped. Michelin Stars are awarded to restaurants for: Quality of the ingredients Mastery of flavor and cooking techniques The personality of the chef in the cuisine Value for money Consistency across multiple visits Michelin Stars have been awarded since 1926 by the French Michelin Tire Company. It is one of the most coveted awards world-wide. It is clear why this restaurant no longer rates a Michelin Star. It is also clear why it is not very busy no matter what time you visit. A very small, very skinny burrito is $4.95 and adding cheese or sauce can cost an additional $0.45 to $0.75 each. A small bowl of beans is $4.25. An average person will spend $20 to eat. There is no salsa bar, no place to get condiments, sauces, or anything else...you can help yourself to water and soft drinks, eat with plastic forks...if you order for two, the meal must be picked up at the counter...no table service...and it comes on one tray in a single basket..not even a separate plate for two people. The red and green sauces are both watery - these are not "salsa" like you would expect in a regular Mexican restaurant but their own idea of a sauce - and green is not green but a sickly yellow color and if you order an extra you pay $0.75 and get a small plastic cup. The menu is burritos and quesadillas, no tacos, no enchiladas. The menu is minimalist, as is the seating and lack of salsa stations. Clearly the statement is "it costs alot to make these burritos and we're not going to give you any extras." The experience is "zero hospitality" and again "minimalist" comes to mind. You sit in rows of small stainless steel tables. Some are "rickety" and rock back and forth badly so you have to change tables. Chairs were not really designed for humans. The claim to fame is their tortillas - they don't describe their sourcing at all - modern restaurants even fast food like "burger lounge" or "in and out" tell you what kind of oil they use to cook, where they get their meats, cheeses, etc. and especially important for burritos is sourcing of gluten products - flour for tortillas may taste good but is it laced with glyphosate sprayed on the grains during and after growing? Anyone who eats out regularly and doesn't pay attention to sourcing is just not wanting to live a long, healthy, and pain-free life. There are lots of better choices for both menu and hospitality. read more

I think for me personally I am not a fan of these style of burritos. It doesn't taste bad but the soupy stewed meats that kept overflowing from my tiny burrito that left my hands messy and sticky in a way. the price point, just high. service is fantastic and its just a hole in the wall. read more

First time at Burritos La Palma in a Santa Ana strip mall with plenty of parking. Small, clean spot with only about 5-6 tables and lots of takeout orders. Lilly at the register was super friendly and helped walk us through the menu. Even gave us her favorite, the deshebrada, which was solid. We ordered the birria, frijol con queso, deshebrada, spicy chicharrón (my favorite), and a side of refried beans. Everything was packed with flavor. The burritos are small, but they definitely deliver. Drink selection was great too with Mexican Coke and plenty of Jarritos. They also have nachos and tortas. Only downside was the salsa. They only have one and it's pretty mild, which was a little disappointing. Luckily they give you whole serrano peppers for extra heat. Overall, great food, friendly service, and big flavor in a small space. Definitely coming back. read more

Went here on a quick lunch break, food came out very fast which was perfect. Each burrito is a little under $4 and not your average burrito that you would normally think of (filled with rice beans cheese meat etc) they're more like rolled tacos almost but softer. I liked the texture and how cheesy it was but the flavor of the meat was a little off to me. Had an interesting aftertaste I can't quite put my finger on. I wish the salsa was a little spicier or more flavored, kinda just tasted like a bunch of tomatoes cut up together. This is my 3rd time trying this place and to be honest I think it's just okay. read more

Burritos La Palma - Mexican Near Me - Santa Ana, California

Ok so the hype lived up to the taste. I have seen this burrito shop on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube so I had to try it. It did not disappoint. These are small but tasty burritos. The flour tortillas were so soft. It's a little shop with about 5 to 6 tables. The service was very friendly. Price is about $5 each, and I had two of them (birria and the bean and cheese). Both were great. I would definitely come back and try more flavors. read more

Burritos La Palma - Bean and cheese burrito and birria burrito - Mexican Near Me - Santa Ana, California

I love a good bean & cheese burrito, so it was easy to get excited about Burritos La Palma! People claim it to be "the best" burritos. They are very good; burritos are a bit small and about $5 each. I have tried the bean & cheese, deshebrada, and birria burritos. The order comes with a little container of red salsa, which is delicious and a little spicy. A perfect addition to a tasty burrito! Parking here can be a challenge. The lot is quite small and if it is full, you may need to park somewhere nearby and walk a bit further. Inside is also small; there are a few tables inside and no patio. I grabbed my food to-go anyway but just be warned this might not be a good place to sit and eat if you come with a group. Staff is friendly and service is quick. I wish they had agua fresca available, but it's ok. I like to grab 2 burritos as they recommend 2 per person due to the small size. Is it "the best"? It's hard to say. But it is very good and the bean & cheese is a solid burrito! read more

Love this place always order the burrito with birria. Absolutely delicious. I went today June 24th 2026 and orders a torta and after I got home ate my torta got to the avocado and it was black and nasty. I called them and spoke to Lilly the manager and expected a sorry but all she said was and I quote "That's the only avocados we have" unsympathetic answer that made me a very unhappy customer. If I don't come back, it's not because of the food. It's because in this day and age you shouldn't be treating people like we need you.! Cuz we don't. read more

Burritos La Palma - Torta :( - Mexican Near Me - Santa Ana, California

Good stuff! The parking lot is limited and rail road track on the other side makes this place hard to get parking if you come during rush hour time. Inside has limited seating! Burritos are very flavorful and the tortillas is soft and chewy! I needed at least two, my favorite is the green Chilie shreaded beef and the bean and cheese. The bad was the salsa, mostly watery and not much flavor, made a mess trying to pour on to my burrito. read more

Recommended by my dentist actually so of course I had to go after I got my braces off. Parking was hard to find and the parking lot was busy, but I was able to park in the neighborhood nearby. I ordered the birria quesadilla, the birria burrito, the chicken tinga, and the shredded beef burrito to share with my fiancé. They all had such a good flavor, I didn't even need any salsa. Would definitely go again (and hopefully soon!). read more

We picked up some burritos for dinner and the staff was very friendly. However, it felt like these were overpriced. We used to love coming here because the burritos were delicious but we ordered some birria, bean, and cheese tacos and we couldn't even tell there was birria in it because it was so skimpy. Very disappointing so we won't be going back. read more

Can we have a moment for the most simplest yet delicious burritos?! Located in a fairly busy plaza, this hidden gem. When I tell you, I'm not a huge fan of just a "bean and cheese" burrito, I can honestly devour a handful from here. Although they're on the "smaller size" the flavors were so rich and I couldn't really get enough. If you love a fatty chicharron as a protein choice, you have GOT to try the chicharron burrito. I've honestly tried 3 burrito flavors and enjoyed each one. Please note they're not what you may be used to (do not contain rice and are not heft). My order came with salsa and peppers and it was so simple and delicious. The salsa personally wasn't my favorite but, the fresh pepper made up for it. The shop is a bit on the smaller size probably a handful of tables. I for sure will be back! read more

I wish they had a loyalty card. I come here all the time. It's my default meal when I forget to pack lunch. The chicken tinga is the winner for me, especially with the salsa. The salsa is a little wet, and eating a bug bite of salsa plus burrito means your hands will get dirty, and it will be so worth it. Cashier is always nice and helpful. Service is quick. Seating is limited since the space is pretty small, and there's no outside seating. I usually get my burritos to go since I work nearby, and it's still piping hot but perfect even 15 minutes later. read more

I ordered the burrito con todo birria, frijoles, y queso and the burrito chicharron. The salsa verde in the burrito chicharron was delicious but the texture of the braised chicharron was a little soft for my taste. However, the texture of the birria in the burrito con todo was excellent, although the flavor of the consomé was a little bit diluted with the beans and cheese. Nonetheless, I will give Burritos La Palma another try the next time I'm in the area so that I can order a burrito with only the birria and I'll also try the chicken tinga burrito. read more

Burritos La Palma has been on my list of places to try for awhile, I finally said we were GOING. We had lunch here on a Saturday, got there right after they opened and it was pretty slow, no issue with getting a table. The place is tiny, so I could see that being an issue. The two guys working were so friendly and kind, had great customer service. We each got 2 burritos and it was plenty, we walked out very full. Prices are great, lunch was about $20 for the two of us. I had Chicken Tinga (with chipotle & potatoes) and Deshebrada (shredded beef with green chiles & potatoes), both were really good. LOVE their homemade tortillas, my husband said he wished they sold them. Tinga was spicy, but not hot enough to blow my palate. Deshebrada was really good, I think I would add cheese next time. We both enjoyed the salsa served on the side. Husband had Deshebrada and Birria, Frijoles & Queso. This was our favorite by far, I will definitely order that one next time! All the burritos were well made, didn't fall apart, super juicy (especially the Tinga!) and packed with flavor. I get my car serviced near here, and I will be stopping by next time I get my car worked on and bringing these home! read more

The best bean and cheese burritos anywhere! Served on one of the tastiest flour tortillas I've had--they're soft but give just enough chew for a satisfying bite. They're smaller burritos so order two or three and try the different fillings. Chicharron is melt-in-your-mouth juicy with a spicy kick. Have also tried deshebrada shredded beef, chicken tinga, and birria, and all were excellent. Served with salsa and a bag of fresh, hot jalapeños by a friendly and helpful staff. The dining room is bright, orderly, and clean if you want to eat in. Great place for a quick, delicious bite! read more

Burritos La Palma - Bean and Cheese, Chicharron, and Chicken Tinga burritos - Mexican Near Me - Santa Ana, California

First time here and we stopped in on a Saturday afternoon. Business was slow but the service was fast and friendly. The interior was clean, but also very small. Not many tables were available. We tried one of each burritos and I will say the prices were a bit too high for the small portions. The flavor was not there in the side order of beans, but a pinch of salt truly helped. In my opinion I felt they could stuff their burritos a little more considering how small they are. The quality of their meats were decent, but my personal favorite was the birria with cheese and beans and the deshebrada. Their house salsa has no spice whatsoever, it seemed more like a pico de gallo, but they served a chile Serrano on the side which helped deliver a kick. All in all, this was a decent meal and I'd consider returning in the future. read more

Stopped by after work to pick up some burritos. Ordered a couple birria burritos for me and a tinga, deshebrada, and a bean and cheese burrito for hubby. Salsa was pretty bomb on this visit. I know the restaurant has a Michelin star due to their consistency but the salsa based on my previous visits has varied. Hubby was very impressed with the bean and cheese burrito. He's had it before but said that right after the first bite it was like an explosion of flavor in his mouth. I said yup lard will do that to beans. read more

Pick up (by someone else) review. Came out to around $6. Its a bit small for the price, normal tortilla size with meat wrapped inside. I got a deshebrada ( beef with green pepper and onion) Quite simple. Its juicy and flavor is there. Everything meshes well together. The tortilla is fresh and had that soft baby texture. Im definitely more used to my burritos having more toppings but I suppose its authentic. I thought it'd be spicy but its not. The salsa they have is really good, good balance of flavors, some built up heat. Kinda has the homemade feel read more

Burritos La Palma - Take home burritos. I got birria. - Mexican Near Me - Santa Ana, California

Food was horrible!!! We were only there because the place next door was closed. Taco Bell is way better!

Been a couple years since I had been here, and I've been craving these things lately on my trips out to CA. I finally had the chance to stop by this weekend to get some burritos. I went with a bean and cheese, and a "con todo" which is bean and cheese with birria. Total was $11 or so for 2 burritos. Not cheap, but worth it IMO. The bean and cheese is still my favorite. Its so simple, and such a good combo. The tortillas are super soft and buttery, and the beans and white cheese just go so well together. The one with birria was tasty, too, but their style birria isn't my favorite. (It's good, dont get me wrong, just not my favorite). Ate my 2 burritos in the car, and was on my way. Until next time............. read more

There is nothing quite like a birria burrito from Burritos La Palma. Anytime I'm in the Santa Ana area I have to hit this spot up. The service is always friendly and they are quick to get out the food. The birria burritos are not to be missed with delicious, tender, and juicy beef and the best flour tortilla around. Pro Tip: I always order some extra burritos so I can heat them up later at home as well. read more

The burritos were very tasty. I felt the two small burritos would have been better as one large one but they were a good choice. My wife had chicken tinga and birria and loved them both.

Restaurant brand was featured on Netflix's Taco Chronicles Volume 2 - Burrito. Burritos here are traditional style so they are smaller but full of shredded meat in a flavorful stew. The tortillas taste pretty good. The included pepper on top is very spicy. Pricing is overall higher than other options though, and the menu doesn't have many meals or combos. It's a small place with a bare bones interior but they do currently have some inside seating. read more
