Customer Reviews & Ratings
First of all. Front lady is cool she seems like a good friend. When i ordered they didn't have straws but that doesn't matter i like straight from the cup. Took a perfect amount of wait. When i sat down perfect and even the lady sat and chat with me. I got a breakfast burrito obv and horchata. She knows me to well LARGE. First bite in. OOO THAT CRUNCH was it amazing? YES. Whoever said the salsa ISN'T GOOD ur f***ing lying. Lastly she threw my trash. OVERALL GREAT SERVICE GOOD FOOD and amazing Ambiance IN THIS PLACE WHEN IT RAINS.
Best Carne Asada Burrito in Monrovia, can't wait to go back. As I'm writing this I'm still feeling the kick from the hot sauce...now that's flavor!
Good Mexican food! I had the pastor sope and carnitas taco. Food came out fairly fast and was hot.
This is a hole in the wall gem you don't want to miss. Tacos are out of this world along with the breakfast burritos. Small family owned business that feeds the whole community and are very good people. This is my favorite Mexican food so far in SoCal.
Great Breakfast.. Excellent Pricing.. Street Tacos.. Fast service in a quiant location on Foothill blvd.. I usually get Breakfast burrito with Chorizo.
Great local gem along Historic Route 66!! Came here years ago when it used to be named Los Victors - and along with their new name La Noria, their food and service are much better!! We were very happy with our meals and the staff were so friendly, fast and helpful! They have a large menu, packed full of everyday deals and daily specials! We got the chorizo plate - which came with a large portion of chorizo with eggs and cheese, as well as sides of rice and refried beans with cheese on top. They also include either corn or flour tortillas- we got flour and they were huge! Also seemed homemade. My husband absolutely INHALED all of this - it was so good he gobbled it up before I even got a bite LOL! So I can't speak to it - but he sure loved it lol! I got the beef chimichanga- and it was MASSIVE! I couldn't even eat half lol. It's shredded beef inside (not ground beef) and comes covered in a smoky red sauce. The flavor was great but my only issue was that it was absolutely packed with peppers and onions - very little meat compared to the veggies. But the meat was soft, juicy and flavorful- just needs more. It comes with sour cream and tons of guacamole so that was excellent! They included a small bag of tortilla chips - very crisp and delicious!! They also gave 4 sauces - 2 green and 2 red - those were just ok - more salty than anything so that's the reason for the 4 stars (along with the chimichanga having not enough meat lol). The sauces are a big deal! But not a deal breaker here - still worth it! They're located in a small, easy to access shopping center that also has a laundromat, liquor store and a couple other restaurants - so there's a fair amount of parking. It's a walk up counter and they have lots of outside seating available - very clean too! You can see into their little kitchen from the windows and everything looks very clean and orderly. We had a decent experience and will definitely be back for some flautas and menudo!!
Yummy! Really nice ladies working inside! The got deals every day! If you have a big order, be prepared to wait. If you are lucky, maybe they will have time to pick up the phone and take an order. Otherwise, walk up, order and come back. Its great food at a great price!
