Pretty good local spot for Mexican food. The chilaquiles came out hot and still crunchy, they was it should be. The menudo tasted clean and the tripe was cooked to the perfect texture. The pieces of meat are cut into overly large pieces, which makes it a bit hard to eat. Overall, a solid bowl of menudo. read more

I hate leaving bad reviews. In fact, it's very rare when I do leave any type of negative review. This Sunday morning I decided to stop at Las Marias to try a breakfast burrito. So I walked in bright and early, greeted by the gentleman. Looked at my breakfast burrito options, noticed the $12 breakfast burrito prices. I figured, wow, should be decent size for that price. Gave you choice of bacon, sausage, and chorizo was extra. I picked bacon. Needless to say, the burrito was very small. Unusually small for burrito standards. Took it to go, got home, unpacked my burrito and it was mostly potatoes! Hardly any egg, bacon, or cheese. It was really disappointing. So, I got a tiny burrito made of mostly potato. Again, I hate leaving negative reviews and always love to support mom and pop establishments, but this made me never wanting to try this place again. For the record, I have been to Las Marias before and liked my food. Never blown away, but first time and last time having a breakfast burrito. read more

Las Marias - Breakfast burrito of mostly potatoes - Mexican Near Me - Monrovia, California

Las Maria is a true neighborhood gem, and it has earned a permanent place as my go-to spot, primarily because of one thing... their incredible house made Chile Verde. I recently stopped by for a meal where I ordered the Huevos Rancheros with their Chile Verde which is a perfect combination of tortilla chips and a fried egg topped with a hearty scoop of that chile verde. I have to be honest. This is the only thing I ever order here, whether it's for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is consistently exceptional. My family enjoyed their meals as well, my wife had their Chile Relleno plate, and my son had the Enchiladas, overall great food. Beyond the food, the experience is wonderful. This family run spot is always amazing, inviting, and friendly. The consistent hospitality and delicious food is why I keep coming back. read more

This spot is definitely a value-over-taste destination. The two-tortilla burrito is massive and will easily keep you full, though the California burrito was a bit of a letdown since the cheese didn't quite mesh with the other flavors. If you're looking for a highlight, the green chili is much better than the red. The service is fast and attentive, fitting for a place that feels more like a quick-stop for a meal than a hangout spot. It was fairly quiet when I visited, making it a solid, efficient choice for a heavy meal on the go. read more

Great tasting Mexican food.great service and friendly staff !fast take out services good inside seating lots of room !

Grabbed something to eat for dinner at Las Marias since it was somewhat near Azusa Pacific University. The food was good. Initially, I was craving chile rellenos but they ran out so I opted for an enchilada plate (1 beef and 1 cheese). It was good. The portions were a bit small. The enchilads were very cheesy, rice and beans were good. Service was nice and friendly and the place was clean. read more

A regular here at las marias! Food: Chile Verde Fries- the fries are seasoned and deliciously crisp, the chile verde is tender and seasoned well too! Al pastor burrito- Solid! But I'm not a burrito gal, so I love my fries Service: -Consistent in promptness, flavors/food quality, friendliness and all. Will be back next week probably! read more

Came here after a bike ride for a burrito to refuel and was met with good service and a tasty meal. The workers were friendly and gave me a great recommendation in the chili verde pork California burrito. It tasted great! But the size of the burrito for the price of $16 was disappointing. The flavor and taste of the meat and burrito was good but the price point for portion was a let down. read more

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Monrovia. I typically get burritos, but their other dishes are good. I tried their vampire birria tacos and it was good. It just got really heavy from all the cheese and oil after the first two tacos. read more

A friend suggested to meet up at Las Marias for lunch. It's a good sign that most customers there are locals and tradesmen stop by for lunch. I ordered two tacos and a sope with Al pastor, asada and birria. The tacos are good size with substantial meat in there. Sope has a nice shell with the other necessary components. They are tasty like a home cooked meal that you could come back everyday. My friend's combo burrito looks really impressive. It's really big with green and red sauce on top. For $12.75, it's a really good value. I'd love to try their menudo. But like most places, they only serve it on the weekend. But the lady told me they start serving it Friday-Sunday now. The lady who took our order is very nice and friendly. The restaurant has a homey vibe where you can just relax and fill up on some good Mexican food. read more

My first time here! Service was great! Very friendly staff and I loved how she recommended my menu! Most importantly, this queso tacos were so good!!!

Hidden gem or local favorite, come for the quest birria tacos! I have been here twice, but I haven't been able to try anything else because these are just too good!! Fast casual spot with some tables for dining in. I got my order to go. The quesatacos come with an oder of 4 large tacos, consummate, and salsa. It's plenty to share and you probably should share so you can order more menu items. Delicious! I will return. read more

I've visited Las Marias many times when I still lived closed to Monrovia. Now that I moved closer to Orange County, I still find myself going back to Las Marias for their Quesa Tacos. This has got to be BEST tasting tacos ever! They're little crispy on the outside, tender beef in the inside. Dipping the tacos in the sauce is just out of this world! There's no question that I'll continue to go back to Las Marias whenever I'm in the area or just make a special trip there when my cravings hit! read more

One of those GEMS you get lucky enough to stumble upon in a strip mall! Clean, delicious, fast and friendly service - Mexican radio radiating from a cook that is eager to serve up his handiwork....couple young guys working early Sunday Morning! Came in for a breakfast burrito to go, but saw the Menudo in the menu and had to order it and am sooo glad I did. Clean, deep flavor from a pot that's been simmering for days I'm sure. Get it! read more

Just spent over $100 for takeout. Menudo was good. Chile rellenos was good. The chicken burritos is what killed it. The rice was overly salted could not finish my burritio. All 4 of us agree that was not edible. read more

If I could give them 10 stars I would! I have even coming here for about 13 years since my son was a baby.. this family is the sweetest and the the food is amazing! Definitely made with love. I've literally tired everything on the menu.. can't go wrong with anything! .. but I will say they already know my go order as soon as I walk in..I rarely make Yelp reviews..but I had too! It's a hidden gem read more

If you want a "it's ok" spot, this is it. That's what it was, just ok. Went in to order and mid way through ordering the guy started talking to someone else, giving them another order then came back to us and said "anything else". Also, paying $3 for a refill on a $3.50 drink is totally unacceptable. read more

Food is delicious! We ordered trays of enchiladas, rice and beans for a large Christmas party and everyone loved the food! The service is great too. Highly recommend read more

Nice hidden gem with very friendly people. Prices are reasonable, and food is good. The queso birria tacos are delicious and filled with meat. It's cozy inside, and parking is easy. Great for a quick lunch or grab and go. read more

Excellent customer service and friendly folks run this place. I stopped by after being recommended by an SGV Eats post and it is very fresh and tasty. The salsa was homemade and just right. My only quibble is the bacon wasn't very good... overly salty and cheap. I'll be sure to come back and try their other dishes though because that was the only thing that wasn't excellent. It's in a nondescript spot and has limited seating, probably best for takeout. read more

They are next door to my office. I usually phone in my order and pick up after a few minutes.

I wish I knew about this place sooner because the tacos were close what I was looking for. I went around 4pm and ordered carnitas and al pastor tacos with green salsa. The carnitas were moist and tender. A bite in and the meat practically pulled itself apart. The al pastor tacos were nicely seasoned and flavorful. I loved how the chunks of meat were large. The addition of the green salsa to both tacos gave a nice kick and flavor boost. Overall, the tacos were incredible. $2.25 for each is just slightly cheaper than other taco places in Monrovia. This has now become my go-to spot. read more

I came for the Birria tacos and they did not disappoint! This came out to be $13 an order for 4 tacos with consume! That's such a deal considering other places are charging at least $16. It was very meaty and the tacos were super crispy. There was a decent amount of cheese but it wasn't overwhelming. The consume was decent but I just felt like it was lacking something. I didn't get any limes or salsa with my order so I felt like that was what it was missing. Definitely ask for that when ordering! This is a small mom and pop spot with excellent service. They were very welcoming and I would recommend this place when in the area for some good birria tacos! read more

Love the breakfast burrito!!! Flavorful, good amount, well made...small place, and can be easily missed.

The people were so nice and helpful! The Quesatacos were very good! We also had the flautas and those were delicious too!

Came here after a long day of moving furniture. Wanted something fast, tasty and well-priced and filling. This place hit the spot! So many food options as well and drink options. For the price and quality of the food serving sizes are quite generous. This place is a hidden gem! You order at the counter and pay then find a seat and they will bring it to your table. Highly recommend and when I am back in the area I will definitely come by. Overall 5/5 read more

Still love Las Marias and try to stop by whenever we're around the area and craving Mexican food. Dine-in is now available, and service is quick. Order & pay first, then grab a table.

Aug 30, 2025. Had the Menudo and it was delicious. I like hominy, so I asked for everything. The Menudo seemed to have a taste of California chili pods with some guajillo chile pod taste. That combination is good. Not too spicy and no taste of bay leaves. Which I appreciate. A good find. Thank you! read more

The food is fantastic! I've been here twice, once for their quezatacos and now for their combination burrito with a coworker. My coworker's words to me after we finished were: "Why didn't you tell me about this place sooner?" Sorry, bud. The lady at the register taking our order was very friendly and let us know about their in-house aguas frescas flavors, which were super refreshing in this heat. At the time of writing, I believe they had a watermelon and a pineapple/cucumber/mint. Apparently, they do different flavors depending on the season and whatnot, so go ask about it. There was a moment where the chef had noticed my coworker couldn't finish the massive combo burrito, so he walked over and offered up a to-go box without even us needing to ask. It was real kind. The service alongside the inside of the restaurant gave me a very friendly and casual feel of the atmosphere. I'm definitely coming back more and more now. read more

Las Marias - Plate of 4 quezatacos in the front and 4 tacos (2 carne asada, 1 al pastor, and 1 lengua) in the back - Mexican Near Me - Monrovia, California

Really good breakfast burrito. I added beans and guacamole. It had a lot of potato, but it was really flavorful and perfectly cooked potato and it also had a lot of really thick bacon to balance it out. The bacon and the beans were the highlights for sure. Good salsa as well, they have a red and a great. I do wish they had a really hot one, but it was still very good. Also, pretty much zero extra grease/oil beyond what is needed to cook it which is always nice. The woman working the front was super friendly. Also, they have chapurrado right now; I'm definitely coming back for that. She said order ahead of time because they don't heat it until you order it to keep it fresher. All in all a great experience, I will definitely be back before champurrado season is over to try that and the normal burritos. I wonder if they do tamales? read more
