Been coming here for quite a few years now. The food and flavors are more welcoming than the location may seem, but I've never had any issues here. I also frequent Rubens across the street and have never had an issue there either. The prices for the food are fair, portions are good, and service is quick. I really do love how flavorful the food is but I do think the quality of many of the ingredients leaves much to be desired. Makes me think twice about coming here but when you're eating the food it does hit. It just makes me feel like when I eat jack in the box and i regret eating it because of the quality. An easy tell is the quality of the rice grain. I saw the other reviews mentioning how greasy the food is and I have to agree, asada burrito was dripping grease down the side of me. Some people love to cliché greasy food as better, and that's fun and all, but when I'm at home at 10pm sitting upright on my bed - sometimes on the toilet - with heartburn and wondering why the hell the burrito was as greasy as it was, it ain't so fun anymore. Tacos are also on the greasy side. I will still give it its flowers for flavor alone, especially compared to a lot of options in Compton, it's a stand out. Even with what I mentioned for ingredient quality, they're probably still better than a lot of Compton options. It's really bleak out here. I'd like to give it a 3.5 if possible but I'll round up to 4 stars earned. I wouldn't say it's a spot worth coming out for - I've seen the TikToks - but if you're local, in the area or maybe 10-15 minutes away, it's a strong contender. read more

I haven't gone here and won't.. I saw this place on Instagram unfortunately it doesnt look like a clean environment. The downside...no gloves worn. The workers have rings on and they are touching the tortilla..rings could carry bacteria etc. Unfortunately discouraged me from going. read more

The food here is always always!!! On point and delicious no matter what meat or dish you get you won't be disappointed. Service is great kind of chipotle style set up but delicious selections. They make you feel at home when you hear one of the cook ladies yelling asking you what are you taking so they can warm up your tortillas by hand! Definitely my top three places to get definitely! On my once a week spot read more

Went on a Saturday morning and there was a line out the door. The people were very nice and the line moves fast. Decided to try the Chile Relleno Burrito with asada and the Chile Rojo Burrito. Both were great! They definitely pack the burritos and they are big for a reasonable price. I will say it's a bit greasy but the flavor is amazing. I added yellow cheese to the Chile Rojo Burrito and it reminded me of Romonas which is great because it saves me the drive. The salsa that goes inside is good so next time I'll definitely add more. The salsa given on the side is not good at all. I definitely felt like more of the salsa inside the burrito was needed or they need a different side salsa. Will definitely be back for burritos, just with extra salsa! read more

I'll be honest -- I never would've come here if my clients hadn't insisted. They told me, "It's a hole-in-the-wall," and I said, "That's fine, as long as the food's worth it." And wow... it's worth it. This place serves some of the best burritos I've had anywhere in L.A. County. You'd never guess it from the outside -- it's hidden away and totally unassuming -- but that's what makes it special. It's the kind of spot you only find through word of mouth. If you're a fan of Burritos La Palma, you'll probably love this place even more. The burritos here are huge -- easily three or four times the size. Since the restaurant's named after Uruapan, I wanted to try their carnitas, but my client swears by the chile relleno burrito. I couldn't decide, so they topped my chile relleno with carnitas. Best decision ever. It was around $18, but the burrito was massive -- enough for two meals if you have self-control (which I didn't). The tortillas have that soft, stretchy texture like Burritos La Palma, but the flavor combo here is next level. If you're ever near Compton, don't skip this spot. Their carnitas and chile relleno burrito is my new favorite in all of Los Angeles County. read more

Good delicious authentic food, but just needs to expand with tables and a restroom to accommodate their fans!

Food was excellent. Place is not so great of a location, but worth the trip. I liked the chile relleno burrito and carne asada burrito.

Food is good but not great. Everything is super greasy Chile relleno burrito is good but cheese is type is not consistent and the size of the chile varies read more

The mixto burrito was scrumptious! Service excellent. Whatever you do, don't let the look of this place deter you!!!

I give this place a 3stars because it wasn't all that to me !! The customer service was nice and friendly and the people who come there to eat was all friendly and the place is nice and clean . The only problem I had was the meat was not that tasty to me it had no flavor at all I order a green chile burrito and the meat didn't taste like nothing and it was spicy and they hot sauce was not good and they gave me some pickle, carrots, and radish and that shit was old lol it made my car smell like old ass my daughter was like what the hell is that smell mama your food stink I was so mad they need to do better with they food and they put so much on it on Tik Tok and I was very upset . I'm so sorry I was so mad about the smell I didn't take no pictures of the food . read more

I've been meaning to stop and have lunch here for a long time since I'm always in Compton. I caught a parking right up front on a rainy day so decided to give it a shot. Really good food served by happy people. I believe people's happy personality finds the way into making food taste amazing. Glad I stopped by, it was delicious. We bought chili rellenos, chili verde and carnitas plate. read more

Old school authentic food. We had the chicharon, buche, asada and chorizo tacos. The food was bomb!! Something your family would make. I hate when people complain about prices at these small places but are fine with crazy places at higher end establishments. Prices were decent for the amount of meat that was piled into our tacos. We saw them making the burritos and those things are massive. Easily could be three meals. Service was fast...there was a small line when we got there and bigger one when we left. Enough said. read more

i bought 2 tacos and a burrito. service was fast and polite. the only greasy Mexican food I've tried in my life. nothing I ordered required excess oils. don't believe that every hole in the wall is worth eating at, sorry. read more

Dangerous area. Dangerous sidewalk. Dangerously good Mexican food. Tastes like real Mexican food. Please don't ruin this place and come if you're a vegan, have allergies or woke. Order anything but the tripe. read more

The location is surroundings by graffiti but don't let that intimate you. Bad parking, suggesting that they add a food selection menu for new customers with prices. Depending on the person serving that's how my burrito tasted. Elderly lady the burrito was on point, young lady burritos were missing the chile verde flavor (not enough) It just tasted like beans and rice. I would give it another try with the hopes they serve better. read more

Burritos are fire! People are very friendly. Cost is right on time. I just had a red Burrito and can't wait to try the green.

No parking, at all, but the food is great. Also, there are flies around, and they do land on the food too, but the food is great. If you live anywhere in Compton, try it at least once, the food is great. My tias didn't make food that taste this good, and flies still landed on it. Plus, there's a liquor store next door that sells bebidas de Mehico with real sugar to wash down that deliciously bomb food. Enjoy, the flies do read more

High expectations left kind of disappointing. The food is not how they hype it up to be it's decent don't come in if you're a picky eater a.k.a. my wife she seen a little roach and she lost it. I went ahead and still ate the burrito and a taco it was alright of service was fast. Nobody there when I showed up kinda sus me out a bit read more

Had 2 chicken burritos that were horrible. Myself and hubby got food poisoned here. Paid almost $50. Turns out the chicken was spoiled YES rotten. They must have heated it up from the previous day and let it sit all day the next. Or maybe it was just old in general. Will not be coming back here. Not only was both my $50 dollar burritos rotten but the customer service was horrible. People were rude and the ladies were laughing then a Chinese male came out and up charged me from what the ladies told me. Weird ppl. Nasty ass food read more

Absolutely love the burritos here I do not get absolutely anything else. If it's your first time eating here and very picky I suggest the bean and cheese burrito with Chile de verde salsa only!!! The meat added is what gives it more flavor for sure ! read more

I really was excited to try this place, but after trying it o just can't go back. First, I literally killed a roach on the floor my son pointed out. I was immediately not in the mood for that place anymore. I kicked the roach over to the corner and I squished it not really trying to. The lady behind me in line, opened her eyes wide. Second I don't eat pork and they were using the same chopping knife to cut all be meats. They have beef and pork items. Still, we decide to order after all that. I saw her making a carnitas burrito, chopped up the carnitas and then used the same knife to cut a chile relleno. There was still bits of carnitas on the knife and some got on the chile relleno. When we were going to order My husband asked the lady if she could please use a different knife to cut my chile relleno burrito because I didn't eat pork and she made a face. She couldn't find one so she grabbed one that was on another table. That already has me questioning this place even more. I really wanted to support and like this place. They have oregano, limes and pepper flakes by the cash register. We didn't grab any of that. There was no way. They don't clean the counter where they chop up the meats after each customer, Or at least wipe down after different meats. Definitely disappointed. Cleanliness is very important and it would be awful if someone got sick. read more

Nice little place I've been going to when I'm in the area but it's was the first time back since the pandemic, I got my usual Chili Verde Burrito as usual it was very good. Few years ago a burrito cost around $7 but like everything since the pandemic everything went up, today my mine was $10 but well worth it ......5/2023 read more

This place is bomb for only certain things such as the carnitas. Beans were to oily, and chicharrón was just okay. But man those carnitas were amazing. 10/10 for carnitas, everything else was eh. Pork verde was kinda dry. read more

Ordered a Chile relleno burrito. Maybe I'm different but I thought a Chile relleno burrito would come with meat. I asked to add Asada and it came out to $17. What the heck? Seemed expensive. Not a whole lot of meat inside. Good flavor I guess. I'd go again and try a less expensive normal burrito. read more

I came across this place because of https://www.lataco.com/ the food is decent but not really what they hype it out to be the people really need to work on their customer service.. Many red flags when it comes to cross contamination with the food the lady who charged us is same lady touching the food and money with no gloves!I'm not knocking this place down I just honestly expect decent food handling for the least, I was almost charged twice because they couldn't figure out how to change the roll of paper on their debit machine! lady had an attitude and had to tell her to make sure she didn't charge me I had to show her on my phone she had already charged me and she was ready to charge me again all with an attitude! read more

I've been living down the street for 12 years and I can tell you that I tried never posting about this location because in honesty it's delicious ass fuck but it's out now and I can say fuck it come and try this location you won't regret it read more

Started coming here MANY years ago when I was still in college and I would visit California. Back then, no one really knew about this spot and I could be in and out, with one of the best burritos you could ever have, in less than three minutes. Now, over 15 years later, sometimes the line can get very long, thanks mostly to Instagram and TikTok influencers that have given this place deserved coverage! The Green Chile Verde is the best of its kind. I've learned to appreciate the immense amount of graffiti and dilapidated structure that this restaurant is in. But don't be fooled by appearances! The business itself is run by a Latino/Asian family. They're all very kind, even if you don't happen to speak much Spanish. Again, most definitely the best Green Chile Verde burrito you will ever have! read more

Sorry to bust up the "good time," but this place is not worth the drive. Anything you read about this taco shop is hype. The food was mediocre at best. The burrito was "lazily" rolled and fell apart immediately after taking my first bite. I suggest looking to your local street vendor for a better experience. read more
