Its worth going out of my way and going here. Their burritos are so good. I usually get the Nopales and egg burrito for breakfast and it never gets old.

Order online to skip the line! Burritos were on the smaller side but it was just the perfect amount! Wish there was a restroom that the customers could use. There's a tiny outdoor seating area, inside there isn't any seating

Amazing burritos at an affordable price. If you saw my review from 2014, the burritos used to be about $3. Currently, burritos range from about $7 to $10, still very affordable for all homemade ingredients including the tortilla. You can watch the worker press each tortilla as you order. You can also buy fresh homemade tortillas to go, 4 in each pack! Burritos can be on the smaller side, so order 2 or 8. You can get other sides they sell in the store, like a mini mini-mart. Highly recommend the chili verde burrito and the carne asada burrito, although I've enjoyed every burrito I've tried at El Charrito. They forgot the hot sauce on my carne asada burrito last visit, but the burrito was still tasty. Order ahead if you don't want to wait and it'll be ready for pick-up!

Fresh, Thin, Perfect flour tortillas that don’t get soggy and drip. 10/10 Bfast burritos. Will go here every single time I pass through. Better than most Bfast burritos in LA.
