Café De Olla Restaurant

"Hunger hit hard during a Saturday morning trek to Ikea. Swedish meatballs at 10 a.m. don’t sit particularly well with me, but the all-in-one burrito at Cafe de Olla certainly does. This Victory Boulevard restaurant opened in 2015 and even has a Monrovia outlet where specialties flourish, especially the traditional Mexican coffee cafe de olla. It’s particularly good served over ice while digging into saucy chilaquiles, omelets, and traditional breakfasts. The restaurant is so popular that there can sometimes be two-hour waits for a taste of the peanut butter-stuffed French toast, dry shredded beef platter combination, and sandwiches. For me, it’s all about the all-in-one burrito filled with three eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, avocado, hash browns, cheese, and salsa. I opted for bacon-only while taking in sips of my coffee from the comfort of my car. No wait, pure satisfaction. — Mona Holmes, editor" - Eater Staff

"This tiny Mexican breakfast spot is relatively new compared to some of the classic restaurants in the area (at least in Burbank years, 2015 was practically yesterday). It gets slammed on weekends, so be prepared to wait a bit. But stick around and you’re in for glorious machaca, huevos divorciados, and multiple cups of their signature, cinnamon-infused cafe de olla coffee." - brant cox

"This dime-sized Mexican brunch spot on Victory Blvd. is a newer place around here (at least in Burbank years, 2015 was practically yesterday), but it’s quickly become very busy on weekends. Be prepared to wait a bit, but stick around and you’re in for a glorious breakfast of machaca, huevos divorciados, and multiple cups of that signature, cinnamon-infused cafe de olla coffee." - Brant Cox
