The carne asada taco salad is under $6 and tastes amazing with jalapeños and  the green mild sauce they have
Angelina S.

MUST TRY !!!! Five stars I love their taco salad as well as asada burrito with jalapeños and their home made green salsa! So delicious!!!! This is a mom & pops spot that survived through the pandemic & stil has the same amazing quality ! My favorite burrito spot!!!

Chicken nachos so yummy !!
Jenny P.

I absolutely LOVE burrito express. Always amazing service. Yummy cheesy nachos, my favorite.

First came here in 2006! Still pretty damn good! Chicken nachos, California burrito, everything is great. Owner is an awesome guy and very kind

The Torta

I was very disappointed in the torta. They're not on the regular torta bread. It's on a sandwich roll. They're very small. They try to put everything on it and everything just falls out of it. It was just a mess. It's so small they give you fries on the side because you will not be full. So I will never order that again. It's not worth $13.49 maybe $5

Breakfast burritos are served till 12 noon. Made it just in time, and got the bacon and eggs burrito with mild sauce on the side. It was a good size, not an overwhelming amount of beans and rice which had good flavor, a nice saltiness from the bacon though they seemed to go light on the bacon, and certainly no shortage of scrambled eggs which were delish. The mild salsa added just the right zestiness, and is recommended otherwise the burrito would be a bit dry (they offer jalapenos and spicier salsas too). Clean restaurant, indoor and outdoor seating available, ample parking in the plaza, friendly and efficient service, and about a 10-minute wait time on a Wednesday. A satisfying meal and experience altogether.

Nachos

Daughter walked to this place as we live across. Nachos were stale. Very Disappointing.

Great service Decent prices I definitely will have to give this another try. It may have been my choices that lead to my experience. I got the California burrito with carne asada. There was so much meat which is normally a good thing, but for me it was too much. Also wish it wasn't just cheese fries and steak. Essentials yes but I was hoping for a better balance of flavors.

Enchilada Ranchera

Burrito Express has been around for a long time, even back when I was a new High School student (which was 6 years ago). This is the food joint that is so conveniently located directly next to the high school that everyone was aware of. If anyone was in the mood for delicious Mexican Food, "Burrito Express" are the first two words to come to mind. Long story short, everything here is good. From the tortillas down to the Enchiladas which are my all-time favorites. A small but simple location produces tasty Mexican food that no one could get tired of.

I had the new iced vanilla late. The drink tasted like water and vanilla syrup. I'm not sure if that's what it's supposed to taste like, or the coffee was expired. But, I heard in other places that this drink is actually delicious. It was so bad that I couldn't finish it. I had my sister try it who was eating with me and she said the same thing about it. I'm not sure if it's the place or the drink in general is just bad. I'm not so sure. Overall I had a good time and a full belly.

I ordered the Stuffed French Toast, with one piece topped with blueberries and the other with strawberries. The presentation was really nice and looked very appetizing. And honestly, you do not need syrup. It's sweet enough on its own! The French toast is more on the crispy side than regular French toast, which I really enjoyed. I asked if I could have one with blueberries and one with strawberries, and I think that was a great choice because you get to taste both. I enjoyed them equally, although it's fun to see which one you prefer. The staff was also very attentive, as always. We are definitely Wednesday die-hards at IHOP!

Since it was a hot day, we opted for indoor seating, but the air inside still felt pretty warm and heavy, with a big fan running in the background. We ordered the Everyone's Favorite Pancakes and the Steak and Eggs. The steak and eggs were definitely the highlight--flavorful and cooked well. The potatoes, however, felt a little underwhelming; they could've used more seasoning since they were just topped with diced bell peppers and onions. The pancakes had a nice vanilla flavor and were light and easy to enjoy, especially with the ice cream I requested to be put on the side. The staff were attentive and checked in on us several times, which made the experience pleasant. Overall, I'd say this place is a solid choice for brunch, especially for group gatherings. They have plenty of drink options, and the pours are generous if you're looking for a spot with strong cocktails alongside your meal.

Food Service…read more Ambiance One of the kindest people you'll ever meet and good is great. He also takes card but cash preferred. Forgot to snap a picture but will be back to do so next time.

Came here after seeing lots of talk online about Kenny's being the best breakfast burrito spot…read morearound SJ. Kenny and the staff are extremely kind and caring, and even when the place fills up they deliver excellent service. However, I thought the food we ordered was just ok. Ordered the #1 (Breakfast burrito), #5 (breakfast sandwich). Both items' composition was not the best. They were wrapped with the wrapping paper that didn't securely hold the entire sandwich/burrito securely. Especially for the sandwich, the cheese and meat were easily spilling out from the sides. The burrito was standard, but I felt the same way more or less regarding its structure. Additionally, the flavor was ok and good at best. The meal came with red salsas, which look to be house made since it was clear there is pickled onions and some other little things in it. Honestly it is an ok salsa, I'm not sure if this particular flavor is what I'm looking for to complement a breakfast burrito normally. We had an OK experience. The restaurant seems like a fairly small shop (run by family)! While I'm all for supporting local and mom/pop shops, I probably would not wait over 15 minutes for it. Maybe will have to try the bulgogi items next time! But for breakfast burrito/sandwich it was just ok to me.

It's a cute space, although even on a Thursday afternoon, all of the tables were taken except the ones specifically marked with 'no laptops'. I tried a few things from their seasonal menu, including the Salted Maple Hojicha and the Orange Cardigan. Orange Cardigan had been specifically pointed out by a fellow Yelper who was glad to see it back, and I can see why! Not too sweet, nicely spiced and I really like the orange flavor. Drinks are great although for specialty lattes, costs quickly adds up ($0.75 for oat milk replacement so the Orange Cardigan is $8 total including tax). The avocado toast was decent and I definitely need to come back and try the croffles. Overall, I definitely see myself coming back for a nice coffee treat every once in awhile. They also seem to host events (there's a pottery pop up on Oct 30 that is full, but I'm definitely interested in future offerings!) they also sell cute things from local independent artists (stickers, etc).
