Los De Juarez Burritos

Have you ever discovered a place so special you want to keep it to yourself, yet you also want it to thrive? That's my dilemma.This place is a hidden gem. Btw, this place only serves breakfast burritos.My wife and I found the spot because we were leaving Kaiser medical and we wanted a simple breakfast spot that wasn't trying to recreate the breakfast cuisine. Give me breakfast in the form of eggs ham bacon or any other type of protein. This place delivers. For $20, you can get 3 filing breakfast burritos and a drink. The burritos are made with fresh flour tortillas, and their menu is simple and it feels like home honestly. Great breakfast spot.

I actually discovered Los De Juarez a long time ago through a Reddit post that went semi-viral at their location on Lincoln regarding some old dude going on a racist tirade and I thought, "Eff that guy. I should get a burrito and support this restaurant." However, I never got around to it since I don't really go to that side of Anaheim often.Fortunately for me, they just recently opened up a breakfast only version of their restaurant and it's literally on my way to work. I left the house a lot earlier than usual today too, so it was the perfect excuse to kill some time.In typical Kurtis fashion, I ordered their chorizo burrito (eggs, potatoes, chorizo duh). Their style of burritos for those who aren't familiar, aren't the typical breakfast burritos you'd find at most places. These are much smaller in diameter, but still packed densely full of goodness. They're also quite heavy despite its size.In fact, I actually prefer it this way to be honest. Most of the breakfast burrito places you find are just doing too much by jamming it full of potatoes. But here? It's just the straight to the point: Meat, eggs, and potatoes. And the perfect ratio of all 3 too.Only minor gripe is the color of the eggs was kinda weird, like a light gray, probably from sitting in a holding pan for too long or something. In any case, it tasted fine in terms of taste/texture.I literally never eat breakfast, but really glad I chose to today! Actually might get one tomorrow too LOL

Giant fresh tortillas rolled into a 2inch thick roll. Packed full of flavor. Chile Relleno was my favorite but the breakfast burrito was spectacular and close second. The ordering was a little difficult bc of how loud the music was in such a small space. But I like the quaint space and decor.

After reading Yelp reviews, I decided to get the special - 3 burritos and drink for $20. I ordered the machaca, the chorizo and the Chile Relleno. Here's my breakdown. The machaca had flavorful shredded beef with no surprises (like fat, bone or tendon) and scrambled egg. The meat was tender and the whole burrito was filling because it was mostly meat. The chorizo burrito was meaty ground meat seasoned like chorizo with cubed potatoes. I liked that it lacked the fluorescent grease that comes with other restaurants' chorizo. Plenty of flavor too. The only burrito I wouldn't order again was the Chile Relleno. It is obviously prepared well and comes with beans but lacks seasoning and flavor. I have never eaten Chile Relleno without a cooked sauce on top so I think that's what struck me as bland. Some red sauce would do this burrito well. It contained beans which might also have been under seasoned but couldn't tell. I'm still giving 5 stars because the burritos I liked were so good and I can't wait to return to try the others. All of them! These burritos are long and skinny with open ends in both sides yet they don't leak. Must be the Juarez style but I'm still learning. Oh the sauce on the side that looks like Honey Mustard is actually a creamy, pretty spicy aoili of some sort - maybe habanero?

Food was good. Service was good. Ordered 15 burritos for my works but they were labeled wrong. Had alot of them upset because they wanted the one they ordered. Everything else was good tho.
