    Wet Burrito de Chile Relleno
    Katherine D.

    I have been coming here for over twenty years! It is a hidden gem and a stable in Reseda. The best taquito plate, chile relleno burrito, and more!

    Danielle C.

    Food was not bad at all. Hard to go out for "Mexican food when you can hustle make it at home. But to my surprise I liked the enchilada and the sauce under the ribeye. Not a fan on the large amount of cream that I didn't touch and the avocado over my ribeye but it was good either way. Good guac. Ribeye wasn't bad. Was cooked medium just hard to cut with the plastic utensils. The service was ok. It was busy and make sure you order what you're going to eat off the bat because if you go back for anything else you're getting it by the time you're done eating. It was busy and the outdoor seating was just fine. I wouldn't order the rice and beans I meant to ask for the salad instead of the rice and beans. Salad was bomb and they have cilantro dressing and Italian vinaigrette.

    Delicious - always. Good quality food. Servers are nice. I'm a big fan of their wet burritos.

    Usually go there for lunch, this time it was a guy taking my order who was angry and in a rush as someone who is not happy with their job.. asked him to do light beans and add a little rice instead which was difficult for him to comprehend. He said hes going to charge for the rice. Which they never have.. i told him they never charge for that and if hes new .. he tells me im the manager boss.. then i realised im dealing with a tough guy and left, the ladies that work there have been no issue, business must be so bad theyre charging for rice

    That's the chicken in my enchilada. It didn't even have salt on it.

    They're open again. But they're worst than before they closed. My delivery orders always arrive wrong. And they stuff all your food in a small to-go box - it's a mess. Also, my chicken enchilada was so sad. It was stuffed with dry and unflavored chicken. I keep ordering from here, but it keeps getting worst. Time to let it go.

    Machaca con huevo plate. Sour cream disaster, where is machaca meat? I was excited to visit after the construction complete. The new floor and decor is nice but they're back to doing the least. Not worth the price, do better Melody's.

From the moment your plate hits the table, you can tell you're in for something special. The burrito is massive, perfectly wrapped, and completely smothered in a rich, flavorful sauce that strikes that ideal balance between bold and comforting. Every bite is loaded with well-seasoned meat, fresh ingredients, and just the right amount of cheese melted over the top. What really sets Las Fuentes apart is the depth of flavor. The sauce isn't just an afterthought--it's the star, tying everything together with a savory, slightly tangy kick that keeps you coming back for more. The rice and beans on the side are just as impressive, clearly made with care and not just filler on the plate. The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the overall experience feels authentic and satisfying. Whether you're a wet burrito lover or trying one for the first time, this spot will raise your standards. Las Fuentes isn't just good--it's the kind of place you start craving the second you leave. The inside has a great Spanish decor.

To my surprise, it's definitely worth going in. As you walk in, they have a smoothie/fresh drinks area. On the left side, they have the ordering window. Since being my first time there, I ordered several items. We ended up ordering menudo which was tasty and not fatty. It came with a side plate of spices (oregano, chile de arbol), sliced lemons, chopped onions, and cilantro. The chicken taquitos dorados (a la carte) were flavorful, tasty, and moist. There were also a bit larger than other locations. They were served on a bed of lettuce, half guacamole and half sour cream, and some cheese. Ordered Chilaquiles (verdes - choice of green or red). It came with rice, beans topped with shredded cheese, and 2 eggs (choice of over easy). It's a small place that feels like home away from home cooked meals. Overall, definitely coming back.

They have a salsa bar located in the dining area close to the kitchen. The green avocado salsa & red macha salsa are MUST-HAVES for any spicy-chasers.

Unfortunately, the prices have skyrocketed. I guess it's a sign of the times like a lot of places. S&B used to be known for good Mexican food at an affordable price. The food is still delicious (I love their beans and bean dip, and my bf really likes their rice). Just not in love with these prices. To get the most value, if you order one of the burritos, you can easily split it into two meals because they're pretty big. Got the chicken fajita burrito and had half for lunch yesterday and today. Suddenly, an almost $25 burrito turns into a couple of lunches for under $15.

Let's start off with location wise it's very centrally located in the valley so you can get to it fairly quick. Parking was not it's best. It is on Ventura Blvd so street parking is very difficult.

Now walking into this place you are def transported into a very lively Mexican culture that is undeniably amazing. I loved the decor and how you just feel at home. They are playing music the whole time loud enough for you to feel the vibes but still be able to have conversations. Now the food let me just say 10/10.
