    Heard this place had the best breakfast burritos. Was close by after getting gas at Costco and decided to drop in and give it a try. Got the mixed breakfast burrito with different meats. The burrito was a good size. Gotta say it wasn't bad but it was mostly potato's in my opinion. Could barely taste the meat. The salsa made It a little bit better. Just my opinion.

    One of the best burritos i've ever had. They took care of us like we were locals the second we walked in. Not a single complaint this place was amazing

    I called in 7 breakfast burritos for work and Gus had them ready in no time. I got great customer service and plenty of salsa! Everyone at my work liked the burritos and asked where did I get them at. There are seats inside to enjoy breakfast or lunch. Give Gus Restaurant a try. Pay no attention to the one star review.

    Made a quick stop here after getting gas at Costco to get some food before we continued our trip to Joshua Tree. I love my breakfast burritos and knew I had to try theirs! The diner is uniquely and conveniently placed inside the gas station on the right as soon as you walk in. I got the their most popular one, which was the bacon, ham, and sausage with the option to add gravy in and it was absolutely delicious! It had a ton of shredded hash brown and other key ingredients (meats, egg, and cheese), which was consistent with every bite! Potato lovers like myself will appreciate this! Lol. It was my first time having a breakfast burrito with gravy in it and it worked! The lady who assisted me was super nice and the food came out fast! Definitely planning to come back!

    Breakfast burrito with bacon

    I was craving a simple breakfast burrito, hearty and filling and I got exactly that. I pulled up and was pleased that it was at a gas station. I personally love little mom and pop shops. Breakfast burrito was really good, the bacon was thick cut and kind of reminded me of carnitas in a way! Loved it. I should've added avocado, highly recommend you do it. Also, really good salsas. Loved the green the best! My friend ordered the biscuits and gravy and that was also really good. And I know my biscuits and gravy. For a little hole in the wall spot, this is it! Friendly women took my order, amazing service! Would definitely recommend!

    Bacon breakfast burrito! Really good and big!

    Great bacon burrito! Fresh and tasty, highly recommended! Very big. Definitely would get again when in the area. It's Inside the gas station.

    A family owned restaurant within a gas station has so much to offer. Didn't expect much to start with but got blown away by our breakfast burrito. It was very tasty. Spicy salsa was indeed spicy and great. I wanted a bottle of it. Quick service. Friendly people.

    Tacos and asada burrito
    Kacey K.

    Had a break while getting some car work done in this area and decided to pop in to this little hole in the wall gas station spot. Smelled amazing upon entering. My husband ordered the carne asada burrito and I got the asada tacos and one chili verde taco. The tacos were HUGE but just meat and cheese not a traditional street taco you'd expect, no onion or cilantro and they used shredded cheddar cheese they were okay. My husbands burrito was also huge but not a lot of meat and the salsa is watery and way too spicy for the average person and I like spicy! I think the appeal here is the portion size, probably great place to grab a burrito during a long work day and while the food was okay it wasn't anything great. If I valued quantity over quality this would have been more to my liking but I'd rather have less and better food. The place is clean for what you'd expect and the lady taking our order was polite. The rest of the customers seemed to be people headed to or taking a break from work, probably regulars. I wouldn't go out of my way to go again.

    Just got the bacon breakfast burrito and it was amazing. Inside was bacon, hash browns, eggs and cheese. Everything was crispy and delicious. Burrito was massive. Salsa was spicy and flavorful. Burrito was about 14 bucks but it was worth every penny.

    A Delicious Stop After the Farmer's Market!…read more Stopped by Mas Bella after the farmer's market and had such a great meal! We started with three drinks: the Tullum Bloom, Strawberry Margarita, and Strawberry Lemon Drop. All three were delightfully fruity and refreshing, making it hard to pick a favorite! For food, we ordered the birria bao buns, shrimp bao bun, chile relleno, crispy beef taco with refried beans and rice, and camarones with refried beans and soft tortillas. The birria bao bun was my absolute favorite! The mini bao is packed with flavorful birria, and I absolutely loved the consommé they serve alongside it for dipping. It's such a fun combination, and that consommé takes the bao to another level. I also really enjoyed that they make their salsas in-house. They served both a verde and a roasted red salsa with the buns, and both were delicious. The chile relleno was another standout. That melted, cheesy goodness inside was everything you want from a chile relleno! The crispy beef taco was an unexpected winner. It was served with what seemed to be the same delicious birria-style beef, so it was instantly a favorite. The crispy shell paired perfectly with the tender, flavorful meat. The camarones with soft tortillas were also really good. The shrimp were well seasoned, and the soft tortillas made them perfect for building little tacos.

I couldn't really taste the difference between the Paloma and the margarita ‍. The place is decorated really nice but what they should've focused on was making agood food.

Shrimp skewers I was told was okay but even that had more veggies than actual shrimps. The rice wasn't cooked all the way. The presentation on nachos was excellent but the nachos were gross. No flavor in guacamole. Beans were plain beans bland af. The chicken wasn't seasoned and had an awful charbroiled taste, just awful! The salsa weren't spicy or tasty. I can only recommend this place for a good happy hour spot because prices are outrageous for drinks. Once again they should've focused on the food than the decor.

Everything was packed with flavor, the meat was juicy (not dry at all), and the salsas absolutely stole the show. On top of that, the staff really made the experience stand out. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and kept checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. Great food, great music (nothing but bangers the whole time), and amazing service. I'll definitely be back!

To make things worse, about 10 minutes before closing, they turned the lights all the way up and shut the music off, which made it very clear we were being pushed out. No one came by to offer boxes for our food (I had more than half my meal left), and my guest didn't even get to finish her drink. We were essentially rushed out before the already early closing time, with no proper send-off. Overall, the experience felt very unprofessional and uncomfortable. Unfortunately, I won't be returning.
