I'm so sad that this restaurant closed! The food was sooooo good! And I mean EVERYTHING!! The place had such a home vibe... the moment you walked in there were aunties cooking in the back and the sons at the register. I remember coming here when they weren't even open yet. I had just dropped my son off at school and was starving for some reason. The nice woman at the front said they weren't open for another hour but I guess she heard my stomach and said she would whip me up something. I told her what I liked and boyyy did she make it. It was the best omelette I had ever had.... The chicken taquitos were bomb.... The French toast was fire. Again.... This was an amazing place! read more

5/5 - Flavor-packed, thoughtful plating, and absolutely worth the visit This spot delivers on both flavor and presentation. I ordered a loaded carne asada-style dish served over fresh greens, and every bite was intentional and well-balanced. The beef was deeply seasoned, tender, and slightly crisped in places, which added great texture. It was topped with a creamy, slightly tangy sauce that tied everything together without overpowering the meat. What really stood out was the attention to detail: pickled red onions for acidity, fresh greens for balance, and a side of house-made pickled vegetables that cut through the richness perfectly. The tostada-style side topped with avocado, herbs, and onions added a nice contrast--crunchy, fresh, and vibrant. You can tell the ingredients are fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Portion size was generous without feeling excessive, and the dish felt hearty yet clean. I paired it with a refreshing citrus drink that complemented the meal well and kept everything light. Overall, this is the kind of place where you can tell the kitchen cares about execution. Bold flavors, great balance, and a presentation that looks just as good as it tastes. I would absolutely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a satisfying, well-crafted meal read more

Three Borders Brunch & Grill - Carne asada over fresh greens, topped with a creamy sauce and crispy bits, a tostada with avocado and pickled red onions. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This spot has been on my list for a while, and I'm glad we finally made it in. The minute we walked through the door, the woman behind the counter greeted us enthusiastically -- big plus already. She handed us menus and told us to order at the counter when we were ready and they serve breakfast all day. The menu can feel a little intimidating. It has Mexican, Guatemalan and Salvadoran which I am not all that familiar with. We landed on a couple of pupusas and a couple of fish tacos. There are signs letting you know the food is cooked to order and to expect a 20-25 minute wait, so at least they set expectations up front. The dining room was small but warm and colorful and there were additional tables set up just outside the front door. We had no problem finding a table inside. When the food came out, the portions were generous and the presentation was better than you'd expect from a humble neighborhood grill. The pupusas were crisp on the outside with plenty of filling, and the fish tacos were fresh and well-seasoned -- nothing greasy, nothing bland. Friendly service, solid food, and a spot I'd definitely come back to now that I know what to order. read more

This place is just around the corner, and glad I stopped in. The portions are large and filling (I ordered two pupusas for lunch which was slightly more than I could eat!) You also get a plantain meduro if you order at least 2 pupusas! The indoor dining area is tight, but they also have outdoor tables set up with shade. Come early, and be prepared to wait! The line moves slowly (I was about 6 or 7th in line, and took me about 15 minutes to get to the front of the line), and they have signage up saying food could take up to 30 minutes as food is to order. They're known for their pupusas, but I also heard their tamales are good. Even though I was there at noon on Sunday, they only had one of their three tamale options available that Sunday :( Note, they take credit card, but have a $1 surcharge per transaction read more

Three Borders Brunch & Grill - Pupusas! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I stumbled on this spot for lunch while looking at places close to church after service one day and ever since, I try to go back atleast once a month! The owner/workers are so kind and there were times where we got service and they gave us extra pupusas or drinks or this banana dessert they have. The ambiance is bright with people & workers laughing, music playing, and good food! The last time I went I got the grilled fish of the day, my friends both got the breakfast tronquito, and we couldn't pass up on getting the gourmet pupusas to share. Grilled Salmon 5/5: exactly what I was looking for that morning because I didn't need anything heavy, but was looking for more veggies and the plate definitely had a lot of them with a healthy dollop of guacamole on top! Gourmet Pupusas 5/5: we got them stuffed with jalapeño, carne asada, and cheese and they were huge! The spicy slaw that came with them were very refreshing to eat alongside them. Would definitely recommend and try. Tronquitos looked great, but I didn't have a bite of them to be able to rate them. The chips and salsa that came with them were really good though! Aquas frescas 5/5: honestly can't give it a lower rating because the owner pulled up out of nowhere towards the end of our meal and offered it to each of us. The drinks were refreshing and made our experience even better read more

We were greeted with a smile by the owner. She fed us like we were her own. We even got a couple papusas on the house so delicious. The Chilaquiles were great lots of flavor and crunchiness!

Upon entering you're greeted with house music and I gotta say I'm here for it. It wasn't too loud and the mix was great so I couldn't complain. The service was prompt as we ordered to-go and maybe waited 10 minutes. The breakfast tronquito (burrito) was so good. Perfect ratio of ingredients, flavors were great, and ample amount of sausage. read more

Three Borders Brunch & Grill - Inside - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Had a great breakfast here over the weekend. No wait, lovely service, and delicious food. The customizable breakfast pupusas were a hit, and the restaurant manager has plenty of popular recommendations. We ended up going for chorizo, potato, and cheese pupusas and bacon, cheese, and bean. They came with a delicious sweet little fried banana Also got the carne asada chilaquiles. Very large portion, make sure to add avocado on top. Not sure what the pink sauce was but I did not ask questions!! The strawberry agua Fresca was delicious and also ginormous read more

Such a great find! Everything was fresh and perfectly cooked, portion sizes were great (especially those drinks - massive, vibrant agua fresca for $6), and the service was beyond friendly and attentive. I still can't get over how good this pupusa was. The only downside to my experience was that I'm pretty sure my tip was added twice (there was an issue with my first payment attempt and we didn't think it had gone through - otherwise, I'm not sure how two breakfast plates and two drinks added up to $64). But it clearly wasn't intentional, so not a huge deal. We'll be back! read more

Three Borders Brunch & Grill - El Guanaco (jalapeños added to the scrambled eggs), Breakfast Tronquito (avocado added), and the cucumber-apple Aguas Fresca - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The people are nice. The food however, definitely not for me. I tried a few different items and was not impressed, especially for the prices. The chilaquiles were more like Nachos and the salsa used for them was over loaded with Jalapeño juice. Huge disappointment. The $6 pupusa was average, nothing special about it. Lacking flavor if you ask me. The vegetables used for it were old and looked like they were used the day before. The orange drink was highly disappointing also giving a gassy taste with almost no flavor. Giving the extra stars for the staff who again was nice. read more

This place is aaaaaamazing! The pupusas were cheesy and full of flavor, the shrimp cocktails tasted fresh, and the fish tacos were delicious! Don't skip the loaded fries; they're huge and perfect for sharing. The handmade tortillas and fresh aguas frescas tie everything together. Everything is made fresh to order, so yes, there's a bit of a wait but 100% worth it. The service was AMAZING -- super friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Restaurant is family friendly. Big portions, great prices, and delicious food, will be coming back soon. Thank you TBB read more

Do not sleep on Three Borders! I've driven by this place several times and finally decided to give it a go. I'm so happy we discovered it! As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with friendly service and hospitality. They have a huge extensive menu filled with breakfast, lunch, and dinner options. The only problem is that they close at 6 so make sure to swing by for an early dinner! Their Pupusas are out of this world good and everything is made to order fresh so you may need to wait a few mins for your food but it's worth it. I am honestly so happy we have a great Mexican restaurant so close to home now and can't wait to come back! read more

Three Borders Brunch & Grill - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

First off, ALL DAY BREAKFAST!! The food was delicious. The portions are pretty big so make sure you go hungry. Unfortunately the wait was a little long for the amount of people there but it was worth it. The fusion of American/Mexican/Salvadorian cuisine provides a wide variety of options for any palette allowing a larger group to enjoy this charming restaurant. The service is absolutely fantastic! As my friend and I approached the front door one of the servers noticed us approaching and held the door open welcoming us in. The staff is very friendly and explained how ordering and getting a table worked. I will say however that the chata coffee wasn't the best. It was just an horchata with a bit of coffee in it and the horchata itself is just a mix. For $8 it was a little bit of a let down. This restaurant overall is definitely a must visit. The food is delicious. The service is simple outstanding; they make you feel truly welcomed. The portions are very hearty. Parking isn't the best it's in a shared lot with another business but street parking is pretty easy to park. We were able to park 25 ft from the parking lot. Don't miss out on an amazing experience here! I'm not giving it a 5 star rating solely based on a slight wait on food and the horchata/ Chata coffee but if I could give it a 4.5 I would!! read more

Wow. This felt like stepping into your family's kitchen and having a home cooked meal while catching up. Janita makes everything herself and uses only fresh ingredients. We were stuffed, the food was delicious, and, because we went on a slower day, we were able to talk to the staff and learn a bit about them and the history of their lovely restaurant. There were even a few surprises along the way. They treated us like one of their own and were enthusiastic about answering questions, never annoyed. Help keep them in business and stop by for a genuine and tasty experience. The only thing warmer than the food was the service! Five stars all the way! read more

Three Borders Brunch & Grill - El Volcan - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Don't come in if you're hangry!! Or in a hurry. Came in for lunch and were greeted by a nice young man who immediately offered us menus. The menu was pretty extensive and a bit overwhelming. We stood in line to order while the cashier took an order over the phone. We started getting impatient. There were other people waiting behind us too. We waited 45 minutes and even still the entire order did not come out, we asked for a refund on the remaining food. The cashier was not very nice but offered us the refund in cash. The food was good, a bit different but it could use more toppings (or maybe I like mine smothered). The owner came by to apologize for the late food and offered us a beverage to go. The 3 stars is based on my opinion before the owner came by. read more

Instead of to go order, sat down and ate a mean here with my step mother. She ordered the chicken soup which was a special item as it's not typically on the menu.

I've been here maybe 3 times, and every time is absolutely fantastic! The food is delicious, but the service is impeccable! I love supporting small family businesses, and I love seeing the employees all working together. The owner is constantly walking around and checking in on her customers whenever she's in the shop, and even during a lunch rush, will make time to stop by your table to say hi. It's not a fancy place, but super cute for a brunch or day date! The food - delicious. I've never had anything here that didn't taste great, but more than that - THE AGUA FRESCAS. AMAZING. They let you mix and match the aguas frescas, and sometimes they have different flavors, but it's the MOST refreshing thing I've ever had. read more

Three Borders Brunch & Grill - Delicious Shrimp Cocktail - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Ordered Carne Asada, Custom order, excluded all items, except the meat. Was told it would be around $20. (I was okay with that) I get it, I'm making changes to the plate. But don't say it's going to be one price and then add $10 extra for no reason. I still gave them the benefit of the doubt. But $30 for one piece of meat ? That they cut into three pieces and it was extremely dry!!! It's "fresh" but it does not take 25 minutes to cook, when there were no customers. I was the only one there at the time of the order. Would not recommend. Cashier has a condescending way of handling things. read more

Insanely scrumptious foods, beautiful presentation, good portions, fair pricing, sweet service in a chill & happy colorful atmosphere. The hype is real, people! I was so torn between the Crazy Mañanero and El Volcán. Decided on the latter because I wanted to try their pupusa and it seemed like the more unique dish. (Although, doesn't seem like you can really go wrong here with any of their many options). It's a wonderful pile of Central American desayuno bombassss-ness on top of the best pupusa (revuelta) we've ever had, hands down. The ratio of masa to filling (which was piping HOT with yummy pork/ beans/ cheese) and the crisp shell was perfecto. The casamiento was another standout. The only thing I kinda regret was getting bacon for the meat. I thought it'd be strips from the photos I saw, but they were bits. Should've gone with the sausage or upgraded to the beef chorizo. Don't forget to ask for the spicy salsa. Also got the TBB Breakfast. Went with sausage for the meat option, and pancakes over French toast. The sausage is not your typical breakfast pork link. It's some kinda amazing (chicken?) spicy weiner (hehe) type of thang that they slice up into thin strips alongside fajita'd onions & peppers...and you just really can't tell by photos how delicious this will be until you try it. Also, their "scrambled eggs" are more of a perfectly fluffy omelette crepe thing. It works! Great hashbrowns. The pancakes were pretty big and very yummy. Also thoughtfully topped with powdered sugar. Not enough people do that. So good & so nice of them. Could only take down 1 so we happily took 2 home. Means the portions are just right. You can taste the genuine love they put into their foods. We were swooned by their highly creative fusion take on Latin cuisine. Super original and very delectable concoctions with fun names. We got the agua fresca mixed. Huge, hella refreshing, and just sweet enough. The cute owner lady kindly let us take one for the road when we headed out. She and her daughter were nothing but warm and accommodating during our whole experience. Gonna try the café chata next time. You must try their tamales. We took a chicken potato and pork bean one home and they reheated well in the banana leaf. So tender and delicious. Again, perfect ratio. Much prefer these to Mexican tamales. Could've been a leeeeetle bigger with more filling but for $4 each, no real complaints. My only complaint is that they close at 6. It'd be so much easier to try all 49 other amazing sounding thangs on their menu if we could get'em for dinner, toooo :( Oh well, can't be mad at them :P Go now. ¡Vamos! read more

First time here today and the food is insanely good. I ate inside and the service was as good as the food. I ordered a carnitas taco and two pupusas. The carnitas taco was very flavorful (loved the grilled onion in the meat!) and they included a big portion. The green salsa on the side was flavorful too. For the pupusas you can choose up to 3 ingredients. I did one with chorizo/potato/cheese and the other with carne asada/bean/cheese. They both were really good and I'll be trying more combos. Their agua fresca is very good and not overly sweet. I had the cucumber and it was a great compliment to the meal. They included a fried banana with the meal and I loved the flavor and texture. I'll definitely be back! Thank you for the really tasty meal! read more

Some of the best service I've ever received at a restaurant. I came into this establishment, admittedly, looking a mess. I'd hardly slept the night before. It was 2pm, and I'd eaten nothing all day. To make matters worse, on the walk there, I twisted my ankle badly. I hobbled in, dehydrated, tired, mentally out of it, and no doubt showing it. Instead of viewing me with suspicion or derision, the woman working at the restaurant welcomed me with a smile, and likely seeing how famished I looked, offered me a complementary drink and plantain while I waited for my order. I'm not kidding when I say it sincerely moved me. On top of all that, the food's fantastic. Do yourself a favor and check this place out. read more
