    Chilaquiles
    Susan F.

    This is a friendly place. It's very small, making it a great place to sit with a friend in a quiet atmosphere. It's not a place for a big party, but if you get your food to go, there is a courtyard around back. We usually go for breakfast after going to the farmers market. I always get chilaquiles verdes con cesina (try it once and you'll know why!). My daughter tells me that the birria chilaquiles is "bomb". The portions are huge. I love the al pastor. The flavor is perfectly spicy and just the right amount of sweet to make your mouth very very happy. The staff are so friendly here. It really feels like the perfect place after shopping Old Town for some down time with delicious food. There are parking lots all around the area, and one can - occasionally - find street parking. But even if you have to pay for a spot, do it! It's worth it.

    Fui en la mañana por un combo de tacos de birria y no me pusieron el consome asi solos sin el consome no saben igual y salen 19 bad service

    birria chilaquiles

    Came here with some girlfriends for a quick dinner. It was pretty empty on a Saturday at 7pm. It's a pretty small establishment with maybe 4 tables and some window counter seating but clean and welcoming. So one downside was they only accepted cash or Zelle and they didn't really have an itemized tab. I ordered the birria chilaquiles and asked to add guacamole. My friends ordered the birria plate and menudo both with flour tortillas. We also got individual flan desserts as well. When it came out they got corn tortillas and I didn't notice mine did not include the guacamole I asked for until after we left. So not the best about making sure orders are accurate. Another downside of them not using a computer system since I'm pretty sure I was charged for the guac and didn't get it. As for the food, it was just ok. Not the best and not the worst and that was the consensus amongst the group and we grew up in El Sereno so we know good Mexican food. My chilaquiles didn't taste like the chips were freshly it was already pretty soggy. It's all right for Pasadena but for authentic Mexican this is prob not where you'll want to go and price point was a little on higher end.

    I ordered the vegetarian taco after reading this restaurant sold the best vegetarian tacos in the area in a magazine. I ordered at the counter and ate outside. The woman who took my order was nice. The inside was colorful, and there were a few tables outside. The vegetarian taco was very full with ingredients including a generous portion of fresh avocado, rice, lettuce, tomato, beans and cheese. You can select the salsa based on spice level. Food was fresh and yummy. Price is on the higher side, but portions are big.

    Delicious breakfast and great courtyard to sit in! We got the chorizo omelette and heuvos rancheros.

    Soooo freaking good! A quaint little restaurant in downtown Pasadena. We got the birria torta and the pollo enchiladas rancheras and loved both! Be sure to ask for the salsa on the side too the spicy salsa was our absolute fav but all three were delicious! Service was amazing they were quick and attentive. Next time we're in Pasadena we will definitely be passing by Tortas Mexico again!

    It's not every day you come across a neighborhood institution that actually lives up to the hype. I've heard great things about this place for a while and decided to stop by for lunch yesterday. Conveniently located on Holly/Fair Oaks, it's a perfect place to grab lunch during the work week. With their variety of tacos, tortas, burritos, combo plates, and more, there's something for everyone. I've only tried their asada burrito, but I will defintely be back for their tacos and tortas. Ambience: You can just feel all the love that was poured into this place when you take in the interior. Colorful art lines the walls with warmth and flowers bring life to the corners they touch. Even the counter tiles of classical, intricate Mexican design add to the authenticity of the space. Food: When was the last time you had a burrito that was FILLED TO THE BRIM with meat? Yeah, me too But in a world where that's the norm, Tortas Mexico TRULY stands above the rest With the first bite already full of rich, salty, succulent asada I knew the rest was going to be good. The rice, beans, cilantro, and other components all worked to compliment the asada (which I was told they're known for) in flavorful harmony while not overpowering it. Since I generally get full easily, I saved about 2/3 of the burrito for dinner/a snack so the $13 price tag was easily worth it. Service: Upon first glance of the menu, I was pretty overwhelmed. I asked the lady taking my order for some guidance and without missing a beat she gave me three recommendations off the bat. And when I was still unsure of what to order she so kindly explained what the most popular items on the menu were. She was so patient and always had a smile on her face throughout my inquiries. It just warmed my heart seeing how much joy she got from her job.

    Wonderful! Tamales available in the late afternoon!

    Called ahead to make sure they had tamales. Tis the season where most places run out before breakfast. I had gone to my go to place and I was too late. At 1pm they only had 4 and I needed a dozen more! Tortas Mexico has great Yelps so I trust my brethren here. With faith I was able to call in my order, find an empty parking spot on Union, hustled up Fair Oaks and all was ready. The jalapeño and cheese had a healthy kick of spice which I like. The sweet pineapple have a nice amber colored masa to tell they are different from the savory. I put them in a slow cooker with a little water to keep them hot to transport to a dinner party. Everyone wanted to know where the tamales came from! My only recommendation is a way to identify the assortment when taken out of the bags.... I mixed them up once played and thought the green dot was sweet... They were jalapeño! I thought the red dot was carnitas, those were the sweet ones... opps Someone got a mouth full of spicy when they were going for dessert opps! . 16 tamales, order of rice and beans, salsas included = $70 fed 8 people with a few left over.

    Quesatacos (4)

    My friend and I came here for lunch. It's a really cute little spot and has indoor and outdoor seating. The lady at the register was patient and kind, and thoroughly explained questions I had. The food was SO delicious. Honestly I would return if I'm in the area, but I am leaving 4 stars because I found this place quite expensive for the portions. Rice and beans were like add ons, and it was an extra charge just to have the dip with my quesatacos.

After visiting the Huntington Library in the grueling heat and hordes of people, looked for somewhere closeby to eat on co-pilot, and was suggested this place with a patio which was one of my requirements. Arrived and parked on the street on a Sunday which is free, and could not find the place it's kind of tucked away. After walking up a block found the charming little passage way with some patio seating. It seems like it's a family-owned and operated restaurant as always a great indicator of things to come is the complimentary chips and salsa. They were perfectly thin crispy non-salty and warm, paired with a nice salsa that seems house made but was a little too tomato/ketchupy but by no means bad. I had crispy taco with shredded beef and chili relleno combo. It was pretty good. ($21 )I enjoyed the rice and beans and it was a filling portion. Wife and mother-in-law split a carne asada plate the meat was flavorful and tender ($30) came with the cheese enchilada was also very enjoyable. They have a really large patio so it's hard to fill but people kept coming in and out so the locals know something. It won't blow you away but it is a very solid Mexican spot and I'm glad we stopped by. Dos Equis bottles were really cold, gracias para mi bungholio.
