    Carne asada burrito was gigantic! Good salsa as well - not too hot. Solid 10!
    Amy S.

    Great food! I ordered two burritos, and both were delicious. Their burritos were giant and my husband and i could have easily shared. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant could have been a bit cleaner, but it didn't take away from the experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's tucked away in a small strip mall on the edge of Pomona--a pretty solid spot overall.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They also had a great selection of pastries and other treats for sale. A little on the pricey side, but definitely worth it for the taste!

    Found this hole in the wall on our way to the la fair best breakfast burrito I've ever had the beans were incredible my wife had chiliquitas which are perfectly made we will be hitting the spot anytime we're even close to this area Plus they have their own bakery inside fresh as can be

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love this place! It's a small mom & pop hole in the wall with a bakery.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The portions are more than generous and the food is delicious. It's family run so it may be slow as there's usually one cook that I have seen and someone at the counter. Was craving their wet chicken burrito supreme, as you can see it's huge! That fed 4 people in my household, unless you are super hungry and can finish the whole thing!

    Maria's Tacos was definitely a last min decision, I've been craving a good breakfast burrito! Walking in, I was a bit taken back at how slow it was but it was a Monday around 10am. I missed the breakfast rush and I made it before lunch, that's the best time.... Weird off times so the Chef is more attentive towards your needs! The place is uniquely interesting it's a half restaurant and a half panaderia. Usually, they are separate entities. Other places where they are combined are mostly at huge hispanic, Latin American grocery stores such as; Vallarta or Cardenas. Ordered the pork tamale and a machaca burrito. The pork tamale was plain but the salsa is what saved it, the salsa brought the ummpph, the pow pow, the delicioso to the dish! The machaca burrito is a must get, the portion was huge definitely enough for 2! The prices were absolutely reasonable, now that I think about it...... this place is a hidden gem!! =)

    Oh good lord! Excellent Vegan Mexican…read more LA Taco favorite. Women owned and run...wonderful people. A little slow on busy weekends, but hey, that's the price for excellence. My go-to for the Mexican while in the 909.

    Where do I start with this place? Yesterday morning was my…read morefirst visit, and before stopping in, I called to ask about vegan options. To my surprise, I found out the entire restaurant is 100% vegan! As someone who was working in the area and thought there weren't many vegan choices around, this was an exciting discovery. For breakfast, I couldn't decide between my usual go-to, a breakfast burrito, or chilaquiles, one of my all-time favorites. The woman helping me recommended the chilaquiles and asked if I preferred spicy or mild. I chose spicy and paired it with a lemon cucumber chia agua fresca. The service was immediately unique. I wasn't asked for my name or given a table number, just told to sit wherever I'd like. Somehow, the staff knew exactly where everything belonged. A gentleman brought my drink, and by the time I returned from the restroom, my food was already waiting for me. The presentation was beautiful. The plate was loaded with rice, beans, chips, cheese, onions, bell peppers, and extra onions on the side. How did they know I loved onions enough to have a full size? The salsa was absolutely perfect. In fact, I thought about that meal for the rest of the day. The food felt wholesome, fresh, and made with care. The portions are huge, especially considering the very reasonable prices. And as a vegan, finding flavorful beans that don't leave you regretting your choices later is always a win! The customer service deserves special recognition. Everyone was genuinely friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was packed when I arrived, yet everything ran smoothly. The dining room and bathrooms were spotless, and the whole place felt like a beloved local gem. The food was so memorable that I came back the very next day for dinner before heading home. Once again, I asked for recommendations. I accidentally ordered the wrong item and realized it a few minutes later. The staff was incredibly kind and accommodating, something that's unfortunately rare these days. This time, I ordered the potato enchiladas and borracho fajitas, plus a re-chicken taco as a snack for the drive. Everything was delicious. I also have to recommend the aguas frescas. The lemon cucumber chia was fantastic, and the watermelon agua fresca I tried on my second visit was perfect for the heat. Also they make random sweets during the week; such as pastries, cookies, etc. When a restaurant makes you come back the very next day, you know they're doing something right. Great food, generous portions, excellent prices, wonderful people, and a fully 100% vegan menu (that isn't all soy based). I'll definitely be back and highly recommend giving this place a try.

Wendy the floor manager stopped by to say hello and check on the birthday girl which I appreciated. Dinner dishes started to arrive and Wow what a work of art, great presentations on every dish and everyone tasting the other's dinner so you know it was a great choice to dine here! Dinner portions were perfect and very tasteful. We received 5 Star Service from everyone involved including Hostess Nataly & Sierra who stopped by to wish a happy birthday to my beautiful daughter! I highly recommend La Popular Restaurant as one of the best in the area! Don R.

    Taco Tuesday + Cinco de Mayo felt like the perfect excuse to grab tacos before a business meeting…read more We arrived to the area early and wanted something quick, and Tijuana Tacos was perfect for that bc the tacos came out quickly. Parking is limited, so we were happy to snag one of the last spots. This is an order-at-the-counter spot with a salsa bar, hot beans, indoor and outdoor seating, and even Mexican Coke. Indoor seating is also pretty limited, so my friend and I were glad to grab one of the small tables. I ordered the lengua and asada tacos and both were flavorful, tender, and loaded with meat. I was honestly too hungry and eager to take a picture beforehand, but I can assure you the portions are plentiful. The tacos were a little greasy, but still really satisfying.

There was a fill your own salsa bar and they had free beans. Overall, food was good and price was decent, considering inflation. The salsa weren't extremely spicy and the service was quick. Overall, we will definitely be back again!

Unfortunately, we did have to wait around 30-40 minutes for the buffet to be ready.. we were served mimosas right away, which was nice. Now.. when it came down to the food, one person in my party did find a vey long hair in her chile relllenos. We made it know to our waitress.. which was a sweet person throughout everything!! Then we were told that the chilaquiles and taco station was now open.. so we headed down to it. There was no one to great us at the station. We stood around for around 10 minutes and no one showed up. So at that moment I grabbed a bowel of menudo. Lucky me!! I also grabbed a long hair in my menudo.. my sister in law thought it was a piece of onion but it was not! It was a very long strand of hair. At that point we all tried our best to make the best of it and enjoy the mariachi and mimosas. Then when I returned to the taco/chilaquile station the lady was very rude!! She bluntly asked what we wanted instead of telling us our options.. and I said I'll have 2 chorizo tacos please.. she said where's your plate?? I wasn't aware that I had to give her a plate to serve me. It was an overall horrible experience. Especially because we were literally the only party in the entire place besides the mariachi. The mariachi and our server were the only pleasant people that morning. I will never be returning.

From the moment we walked in, the staff was super welcoming and took the time to walk us through the menu and their specialties, which made ordering a lot easier. The shrimp tacos were a pleasant surprise--not your typical style. They're fried and topped with a flavorful sauce that really sets them apart. Solid choice if you want something a little different. The real star of the show was the Poseidon botana aguachiles. We were originally deciding between the Poseidon and the mixta, but they mentioned they could make the botana a Poseidon style, and that's what we went with. Absolutely delicious--super fresh and packed with flavor. Highly recommend this dish. We also tried the tostada de pescado (size small), which was probably my least favorite. It wasn't bad, just didn't stand out compared to everything else. I'd personally skip it next time. One thing to note--there's a small parking lot that was more full than expected given how many people were inside. It seems like it might be shared with nearby businesses, so just keep that in mind. Overall, great experience, great food, and I'd definitely come back to try more from the menu.
