EXCELLENT BURRITO 7/16/2010

I come here often and I love the burritos, especially the Ross Perot. The quality is fresh and great, the service is pretty fast and it's definitely worth making a trip to Pasadena, plus there's a nice spot to sit outside and eat. Pros: fast and great quality more

Good food, great prices 10/8/2007

Another hidden LA burrito stop, Burrito Express has the hole-in-the-wall look. Burritos are very inexpensive and tasty. I had a beef, bean and cheese burrito and a quesadilla, which were both very good. My only complaint is that the burritos were smaller than I'd have liked. But I'll definitely be back. Pros: Good Burritos, Great Prices Cons: Not much parking, small burritos, not much seating more

I love the bean and cheese with mild salsa. Normally I am a spice girl, but the flavor of the mild, can't be beat! Also, the taquitos are great. Try anything, you won't be disappointed. Pros: fast and delicious Cons: burritos are a little small. more

What I nice place for a great Burrito 5/12/2002

Burrito Express is great for their burritos. Try the Vic's special with your order. It is so good. They have a great patio out front so if the weather is nice eat out there. The dining room inside is really small so outside dining is the key. Unless of course you take it to go, which isn't a bad call either. more
