Muy rico el platillo de enchiladas que ordene, el lugar esta muy limpio y lo mejor es que no tienes que esperar mucho por tu comida... lo único que el agua que dan esta muy dulce pero se resuelve poniéndole un poco más de agua natural.

I had a torta and it was amazing it came with fries and a drink for about $7 and the fries were delicious and fresh too. The meat on the torta was so flavorful and the bread was perfect and fresh. My husband had a two taco meal with ground beef and though they are small he said they were very good, especially the tortillas. I and my 19 month old loved the rice but my husband said it was a bit bland (but ate every bite). Very happy with our first trip here!

I just bought a burrito about half an hour ago. First of all price said $5.59 and the total was $7.51. Two dollars difference!!! It was first time I haf their burritos so I did not really mind. So I got a steak burrito thru the drive thru. The size was ok but the flavor, was horrible!!! No flavor whatsoever!!! Just bunch of ingredients put together. No meat flavor no nothing. Just a whole bunch of sourcream!! Waste of time and money!!!!

Holy Moly what a great place! Fresh ingredients cooked on the spot. Not greasy, always hot, always delicious. Steak Nachos, Burritos, Sopes, Tortas, Milanese, Traditional dinners, Tamales....you name it, its awesome. If you want it hot, just ask. Good fresh jalapeños put an awesome bite into any dish. We take the kids about twice a month for breakfast. Always, get the nachos or burritos and a chorizo sope on the side. Nowhere better.

ordered steak burrito with sour cream. Got avocado no sour cream and tasted like the lid fell off the salt shaker. Also ordered fish tacos, the person in drive threw asked what meat on the tacos 2x. They gave me steak. In other words they messed up the entire order of fish tacos and a steak burrito. I recommend if u want Mexican food go to a real location. This place is lower on the list then taco bell.

good food but Bad service,we ordered food and they made mistakes with the orders not right and when plp claim back,they dont do anything to fix the problem specially the manager doesnt treat plp good.so if you have a problem with your food that is not right how you want it they dont take it back and you dont get your money back,not good this place.

Some of the best Mexican food the burritos are amazing! A bit pricey and they only take cash, such a shame cause id give 5 stars if I could use my debit card to pay for food, they do have an atm but who wanna pay surcharges just to get cash!?

Like stated below, the steak meat needs to be better, lots of fat and not enough meet. Youre eating mostly chewy tacos if you order the steak which is not that pleasant. Its only good if ur tired and wanna be home in a hurry.

Growing up in Lake County, I would frequently eat at El Famous Burrito when I was in the mood for good Mexican food. The quality hasnt declined and whenever Im in the area, I still make the effort to go back for more.

CASH ONLY. Clean, fast and decent Mexican food, the only bad thing is the sisters at the front desk, very rude girls with no sense of hospitality and service, the cooks on the other side super nice guys!

This place was great years ago, now it is a little disappointing. Still good, just not as good. Pricing has also gone up, just not the quality. My favorite to order is the enchilada meal.

Cash only is the only complaint I have about this place but I learned to being my cash with. The service is always fast and the food always meets or exceeds expectations! Overall great place to eat!

Everything Ive ordered is fantastic! I especially enjoy the pork tamales and recommend you check it out. Excellent guacamole, too. The staff is very nice, and the drive-thru is convenient.

I usually get the veggie burrito w guacamole. The burrito itself is large w large amounts of beans, rice, lettuce, etc. Bring cash, they dont take any credit cards.

Be careful when eating here they dont cook the meat fully. Then when call to inform them the staff and management will not care at all. Eat here with caution!!!!

Burrito had no flavor. The steak was tasted like ground beef. They dont even add the sour cream or avocado in the burrito when asked. Never again!
