El Paso Tienda

I'm a 71 years young Yelper and I just inhaled the best Breakfast Burrito of my life!I've been to this gas station/convenience store/restaurant several times for lunch. Folks kept telling me about the amazing Chorizo Breakfast Burrito, so I finally stopped in the morning to give it a go. This is that story.Arriving- It's on US Route 27 South and you can't miss it as the restaurant name is emblazoned on the canopy. See my picture. Parking is easy and if you have the need there are two handicapped spaces around the back near a second entrance.Ambience- The convenience store/restaurant is in the back and kind of combined. There are acres of cooler doors with every drink you can imagine including beer & wine. Just grab what you want to drink with your meal. Don't worry, you pay when you're finished.There is a bright and spotless dining area with a bunch of tables & booths. See my picture.Pro Tip- I'm a gringo and if you are also, you will be in the minority. Don't panic, you'll be made to feel very welcome!Food- This is an order at the window kind of place. There are some menus on the wall but not everything is included. Just ask. So, I asked for the famous Chorizo Breakfast Burrito-"Small or large? Small please.""Would you also like Beef & Cheese? Hell yes!""Here or to-go? Here please.""What color sauce? Red please."Less than five minutes later it was ready and plated beautifully. Not too shabby for a gas station!Pro Tip- They make their own tortillas year daily!OMG I was in love! It was piping hot, and the aroma was incredible. It was very dense in a good way. This was the small and it was very filling. The chorizo was wonderful and spicy so expect that. I could also taste the melted cheese. It was one hell of a breakfast. The large size would have been too big for a morning meal for me.It was $5.99 and I'd added a Starbucks drink out of the cooler. My total tab was $8 and change.Yelp reviews originally clued me into this place and as a result, I had a five-star simple and memorable breakfast!

Don't judge a book by it's cover. Amazing, authentic Mexican food for a great price! It may be located inside a convenience store BUT there is a designated area to sit and eat. If you like REAL Mexican food then you will love this place!

The food is amazing and the service is great must come back. It may look a little shady on the outside but this place is welcoming.

Pretty classic Mexican fare. After the reviews I expected more exciting flavors but found good, not great food. This place caters mostly to its hispanic customers, and flavors are traditional but not exceptional. Good, very inexpensive fare.

Great food and fast friendly service. Clean and inviting atmosphere. Highly recommended

Best Mexican food I've ever had. Can't believe this is right behind a gas station! Ladies at the counter don't speak much english but that's expected because it's authentic. All you need to know is "hola! tres tacos por favor" and "gracias". Just do your best, everyone is very friendly! We also picked up some baked goods and fresh cantaloupe juice, which were absolutely delicious. Everything was super affordable, we fed 2 (very hungry) people with extra baked goodies and drinks for $15. Don't pass this up!!

Amazing burrito we had 2 al pastor and the service was great and very clean Thank you El Paso Tienda

This place is really a hidden gem. It is a Hispanic grocery store, gas station and deli style restaurant. A few times a week I come in to get the usual breakfast burrito with chorizo. If I have to be honest, it's the best breakfast burrito I have ever had. The plantain chips they sell are delicious... just don't eat to many The employees always have a smile on their face.

The best rice and green sauce! No one else compares. Food is fast and employees are nice.

Can't say enough how much I like this place. Friendly staff and clean kitchen. I usually go for the tacos and have never been disappointed.
