Went to Vida Pura and got their breakfast burrito. It's been on my bucket list for a while, and…read moreneedless to say, it was definitely worth it. I'm glad I finally got around to trying it. I loved the avocado and hash brown combination, and the salsa that came with it paired really well, a little kick with it. The portion size was great and definitely filled me up. The service was fast, but seating is pretty limited since it's mainly outdoors. Parking can be a little rough because it's street parking only, and it was pretty full when I came on a Saturday morning. I would definitely come back. I also saw that they make coffee and matcha drinks, and they all looked really good, so I'd definitely come back to try that next time!

Vida Pura is a Latina-owned plant based cafe located in the heart of East LA. It was formerly a…read morevegan food truck and eventually became the current brick-and-mortar cafe. [Parking]: Free small public parking lot directly across from the shop. [Amenities]: This is a really small coffee shop with no indoor tables and only two small outdoor tables. No restroom is available. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are the Breakfast Burrito, Teddy Bear (double espresso, agave, housemade vanilla cold foam, Teddy Grahams), and Banana Nut. All drinks are made with oat milk. Please note that the kitchen closes at 1 PM on Monday - Tuesday and 2 PM on Wednesday- Sunday even though the cafe remains open for another 1 - 2 hours. Come early for anyone wanting to try kitchen items like breakfast burrito or breakfast sandwich. *** Banana nut (double espresso, house made vanilla cold foam, house made banana syrup - medium $7.50): It came with two banana chips. The cold foam was quite underrated and I could taste a hint of banana flavor. The drink wasn't as sweet as I had expected - I liked it. Breakfast burrito (Refried beans, soyrizo, tofu scramble, crispy hashbrowns and sliced avocado wrapped in a flour tortilla - $13.50): Portion wasn't huge, but it also wasn't small enough to finish in one sitting. It had one of the softest texture for breakfast burritos. The soyrizo was very flavorful. It also came with a side of salsa - quite spicy but flavorful at the same time. *** I probably still prefer meat-based breakfast burritos, but their soyrizo breakfast burrito is quite good and the coffee drink is excellent (4.5-star for both items). I would definitely recommend this small coffee shop for a quick grab-and-go.

We both ordered their Huevos con Chile Verde. For a $16 dish, the portions were on the smaller side but the flavor packed a punch! I know it's an egg dish with chile verde but the amount of meat was borderline absurd. Overall, great flavors but not sure if it's worth the price. Service was very attentive except when we needed our check. It took a while to flag someone down but we were in no rush. Overall, good little spot for breakfast but expect to leave hungry if you have a big appetite like me.

Upon walking in, the vibes are very cozy and intimate, not a lot of seating though. My waiter, Gabriel, was extremely friendly, welcoming, and had very good knowledge of the menu which I appreciate a lot. Now back to the omelette-- oh my god. Best omelette in my life I think. The eggs were soft, pillowy and cooked to PERFECTION. Not overdone and not super runny either. The chicken was extremely tender and flavorful. The sauce they used was sweet and savory, the pickled onions balanced it all out with the perfect acidity. I wish I was around this area a lot more, I'll definitely be coming back!

I started with the chips and mole sauce, which was delicious and such a great way to start the meal. For my entrée, I ordered the wet burrito with chicken tinga. I LOVE tinga, and the presentation and flavor of this burrito were great. Fair warning, though--it was a little too spicy for my palate, so I couldn't even finish half of it. If you enjoy some heat, I think you'll absolutely love it! The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, but it has a cool, welcoming feel. Overall, I'd definitely recommend giving Tenampal a try if you're looking for authentic flavors and food that feels thoughtfully made in-house.

I saw the reviews and was looking for breakfast with my bf and this came across my search. They have quite the set up with tickets clipped to the top like a kitchen in a restaurant, flat top to cook everything on, and prep station to assemble the burritos. We got to the LA Breakfast Burritos around 10:30am and it looked like they were still getting ready which was no problem. I believe Tanya took our order and was so kind doing so. She was by herself at first, and let us know that it was probably going to take 25 mins. No problem, we went to grab ice coffees nearby. When we returned there was another gentleman (I didn't catch his name) already busy cooking up the waiting orders. This is made fresh to order by him with Tanya also assisting, hence the bit of wait time. I ordered a sausage breakfast burrito, and added bacon to it to give it more protein. The total was $16. The gentleman that was cooking and also assembling the burritos also called out names for orders. Very cool and friendly chatting up everyone picking up orders. We also got two small green sauces to go with it. This burrito was definitely worth the price, and was more than enough to split and fill both my bf and myself up. The tortilla looked like it was grilled with cheese on the outside making it crispy and had a good chew at the same time. Bacon was nice and crispy as were some of the edges of the potatoes which were nice and soft. The sausage looked to be regular sausage links but were still good. Eggs were fluffy and the pico de gallo added a nice freshness. The green salsa was SO GOOD, and tied everything together. It was very lime forward which I absolutely loved, and was spicy too. Just writing this, I already want to go back and have another. If you're looking for a great breakfast burrito in LA check this spot out!

I got their bacon one which had crisp savory bacon, soft season potato chunks, thick creamy beans, crema and cheese that kinda got lost in there, unseasoned eggs, and creamy bright guac with crunchy fresh onions all in a decent grilled tortilla. It also came with a bright, acidic, a bit spicy yummy green salsa. Yall I'm a bean fiend so I gotta get a plain side of their beans to try and they were super thick smooth luscious earthy and mellow. Maybe could've used a bit more seasoning and salt but overall this place is lowkey pretty good. Bacon burrito $15 Side of beans $3
