Went to this place and ordered JuevosRancheros and some eggs and bacon You know ? two breakfast meals to go. Portions We're small and I paid over $40 for this. I was still hungry and I cannot forget that. And I'm a Downey Resident, I will never go in there again. Absurd read more

Cute, Cozy and Calm: This is the spot if you are looking for a home cooked meal. The chilaquiles, beans, and eggs were on point! The chilaquiles were not too spicy, crisp tortillas on edges, tasty onion slices, and the fresco queso on top was like icing on a cake. The gentlemen that provided service were prompt. Both the inside and exterior patio are cute, with a brick wall and fresh flowers on each table. Must try if you're in the area. read more

Place is small and quaint. The food here is not super authentic. The scrambled eggs tasted very commercialized . Like the ones you'd get at a buffet. They were not appetizing. Overall not super fresh or authentic food. The people are nice though. Servers are kind. read more

Visited family in the area, I typically hit up Pepe's but was craving a Chorizo breakfast burrto. Given that the day was Sunday, Pepe's is closed and thought it would be a great opportunity to try a new spot. Given that everyone knows LA is super over populated and parking is limited any place. I had to park a block down after circling the area a few times. Which isn't a bad walk and good to get those steps in.... Line was long, which is always a good sign. Yet you quickly remembered that you're an over populated city and anywhere you go you're gonna have to stand in line. Anyways, let's focus on the food.... The chorizo burrito was like any type of chorizo burrito you would make at home nothing special no nothing great just beans, potatoes, chorizo, and eggs which in my opinion can still be really great yet. Over great tasting and will return read more

I ordered the Molé Chilaquiles and they were delicious. Sweet chocolate flavor. The eggs that came with it; over easy, was excellent as well as the beans. The service was good. The food came out quickly and you can see the cook preparing it so no microwave here. Plenty of seating for a small place. Outside dining as well, for two couples. read more

SAVE YOUR MONEY! We ordered the eggs, steak chilaquiles AND after 45 MINUTES we got our food. The food was tasteless! I had to ask for more coffee because the one server was too busy ALTHOUGH he only had three other people to serve. ALSO, the menu has no prices AND to my surprise they charge 3% FEE automatically to my bill for a processing FEE for what????? Tasteless Food and HIGH prices, NO THANKS!!!!! read more

Decided to stop here after we noticed the line for poached was all the way to the parking lot and I'm glad we did!! Small cozy little place with really good food, and staff was really attentive and kind. Family and I really enjoyed it, highly recommend if you like Mexican food! read more

We've eaten here a few time food is okay , so my husband orders some food on the doordash almost 100 worth of food, and there's no option to add lemons, cilantro, and onion, I mean we ordered quite a bit of food, I called to make sure they add it and I'm told I need to pay, my fridge just went out so normally it wouldn't be a big deal because we'd have some in our home but to be rude and say you need to pay made me want to cancel my entire order, I wont be going back here. Appreciate your customers especially with a 100 dollar order, some lemons, onion and cilantro shouldn't be a big deal and maked it an option on door dash and I will gladly pay for it but when it's not even an option that's ridiculous. Now I honestly don't even ant my order read more

Great service with great tasting food. We go here when we are in the area. Thank you so much for your service.

The only bathroom is for workers and busy most of the time. Un solo baño para los trabajadores y ocupado la mayor parte del tiempo. The cooks are all Latinos, you would expect very authentic Mexican food, but they ruin it by adding Monosodium Glutamate (aka MSG) as a flavor enhancer. I am allergic to MSG and had a hard time afterwards. Los cocineros son todos Latinos, se espera que la comida fuese auténtica Mexicana, pero la arruinan añadiéndole Sal China (MSG) para darle más sabor. Yo soy alérgico al MSG y tuve problemas después. read more

I have been coming here for years. I can honestly say it's a hidden gem. Best authentic Mexican food in Downey!

Taking too long to serve our foods the food was dry and had no flavor small napkins, and most of all very expensive

We have been here for many many times Food and service is all good The only bad thing about this place Is the bathroom. They don't let you use it any more.not even to wash your hands. A restaurant with out bathroom is not good Today is our last time here We going to look for a new place. Sorry.... read more

I entered the building mouthwatering, and with high expectations, sadly I just wasn't impressed by the flavors. STARTERS: Complimentary chips and salsa hit the tables and were eagerly consumed by my party... You cant go wrong serving (what is basically) junk food to hungry patrons as a filler appetizer. Next up was the soup, which reminded me of a bland stale cracker. So in my little test kitchen, right there at the table, I added lime to see if I could convert it to an edible, more savory delight. I failed and realized that I probably needed more ingredients... Like all of them. Well, to not be harsh, it did become perfectly succulent, if you defined flavorsome as a lime flavored stale cracker. END GAME: After two spoonfuls, I left it right there on the table. The waitress never questioned if I was satisfied with the soup. There are only two reasons for this. Either the establishment has become so numb by the fact that most people do not eat the soup or they just don't care if you eat it or not. Most establishments would see the amount of food that you've consumed, and that you are going to pay for, and at least ask you if it was okay. Mine was just shy of being filled to the brim of the bowl no inquiries were made from the staff. ENTREE: As a first time visitor, I figured I would keep it simple. I ordered the chicken enchiladas (rojo). It came out in a timely fashion, but this is where my delight was terminated. To my palate the enchiladas just weren't as robust and ambrosial as I have encountered in other restaurants around town. END GAME: I tried to eat it, but left most on the plate. Again, no inquiry was made as to why I would have ordered food and sent it away without really eating it. BEVERAGE: I had Sprite. It tasted... ummm not flat... it was full of carbonation... it was like the essence of some other beverage choice was somehow introduced into the easily recognized Sprite flavor. END GAME: if I in some way managed to bump my head and forget about this review and then was forced to return... I would hope that I could remember one thing... to, at the very least, bring my own beverage. I left the building with my mouth still watering. I went to another Mexican establishment (near Florence and Paramount) in town, on the recommendation of a local. HOW THE STAR RATING WAS EARNED: Okay, I can admit this would have been a tough thing to define if I were to make this a 5-star review. Fortunately, a one-star is much easier to highlight. I found this restaurant to be clean, the employees were dressed neatly and conducted themselves in a polite fashion. Closing note: the parking was ample. read more

First time eating here, local resident. Ordered Chilaquiles Rojo and Verde w/ Asada for breakfast. The Chilaquiles alone were very bland, no taste. Mainly the Rojo, Verde was a bit better. Beans and eggs were fine, the Asada could have been a nicer cut of meat for the price of the plate. Food looks good on Social, just a bit disappointed for the first time here. I'll try something else next time. read more

Yoli's food is always on point. My favorite is the albóndigas and caldo the res. We've ordered their tacos, rice and beans for different events at work and they're always a favorite. The service is great as well, they are always very nice and remember your face. read more

Ordered a carne asada burrito. When the lady rang my order the price came up close to $17. I asked why there was a price difference because the menu on their counter stated that the price was $12.99. She replied that the price increased plus they charge a fee for using a debit/credit card. I asked for prices on other items and they were all over the place. I received three different prices for the same item. First price the lady provided me with, second price listed on the menu of their counter and then the third price listed on their menu in Yelp, they were all different. Overall the burrito was decent. The beans and rice had flavor. However, there was very little carne asada in the burrito. Also, their salsas are decent, chips were a little stale. read more

Went to Yoli's Kitchen because we were staying in an Airbnb close by and the reviews were good. IMHO the reviews are completely off. My husband ordered a chile verde pork burrito. The sauce was incredibly bland and the burrito was accompanied by a limp lettuce salad dressed with Italian(!) dressing. The menu was rather vague with no prices shown--a fact that should have been a warning. I wanted the tamales but they were out so I resorted to a mundane combo of cheese enchilada and chile relleno. The enchilada was tasty but the cheese inside was strangely hard. As for the relleno, the surrounding chili pepper was undercooked and pretty much inedible. We had no idea how much the total bill would be, but from the underwhelming quality of the food, I estimated somewhere around a generous $25 total. My husband nearly fell over when the total came to $39.86. So not worth it. We may have been a little disingenuous, but I also think the restaurant owner was deceptive, knowing fully well that their food was so lacking that they dared not reveal the price. If you crave Mexican food just slightly better than Taco Bell, you will love Yoli;s Kitchen. Otherwise, save your wallet and tastebuds some grief and go elsewhere. read more

This review is for the albondiga soup in particular because that is one of the only things i have ordered. They know how to make a really good soup full of flavor! I always crave this dish and yolis is my number one favorite place that nails it every time read more

Good Mexican food at comparable prices. Place is clean & the service is good. There's plenty of parking as the lot is big. I've had a variety of things here from the pozole to enchiladas to tacos dorados. Tacos dorados were the star. Their machaca has really good flavor so those tacos kill. The ground beef enchiladas were good. Their chips and salsa are delicious. I didn't care much for the pozole as it had feet in it & it kind of tasted like it. The horchata was stellar. My husband raves about their shrimp cocktail & our friends always get the albondiga soup. Will keep coming back. read more

I had Pozole. Too much hominy and too few pieces of actual meat, no home made tortillas for $15.99? Outrageous!

Love the food!! Yoli's makes the best asada plates. Today I tried their albondigas soup and it was SO DELICIOUS and FLAVORFUL. My complements to the chef. The staff here is always so kind and welcoming. This will forever be my go to spot for takeout. 100/10! read more

Omg with this rainy weather,my husband suggested Caldo de Res This was Absolutely Delicious,there so welcoming,must try you won't be disappointed read more

Its a good local place . I usually have the menudo when we stop by either Saturday or Sunday , their huevos rancheros are very good as well . read more

Service great and cute little spot but the food was dissapointing. 1) if I want cinnamon in my black coffee I would order cafe de la olla. 2) the chorizo was the worst we've ever had. No flavor. 3) chips were no bueno and salsa was nothing special. Having grown up in the area, think Marisa's or Esther's taco house as a standard. Sadly both no longer around. Also my frijoles were cold. I want to keep supporting small local places but you need to raise the bar. Again cute little place and nice staff, but you need to step up the food. read more

Very expensive beans and egg breakfast!! The portions are fit for a child. If this establishment is struggling to stay open serving less and charging way more than neighboring restaurants this is not gonna keep their doors open. $45.00 for 2 bean n egg breakfast w/a spoon of potatoes and 2 coffees is over priced. Beans and potatoes are not a rarity or expensive, as a North Downey resident I will not support this establishment. read more
