LJ's Lil' Cafe

Location is outdoors, simple to order and good food. We got the OG, the chorizo burrito and a side of tater tots but we didn’t need them bc the burritos are stuffed with tots. They were good in flavor just personally not our style but definitely give em a try. Their salsas were not spicy they have more of a mayo/creamy flavor to them. We payed $0.50 each for LJ sauce and creamy cilantro, I believe it comes a tiny LJ sauce but u can purchase more if you’d like. There was no line today so only took a few mins to place our order and be on our way. There’s some tables outside to eat but they look dirty perhaps bc it rained 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♀️ but you can check out what we saw in our 4k video. Saw signs they cater in case you are interested. Lastly wanted to mention the tater tots are extra crispy and crunchy. If that’s your style you will love them, but if it’s not the you might find them a bit dry. In my opinion they were delicious just that it overpowered the other flavors.

Came to try this place because they're known for their breakfast burritos. Placed order online and got text message updates when food was ready. Got the OG and chorizo. Cannot recommend them enough. The OG with their sauce is incredible. Crispy tots and savory sausage is a great combo. The chorizo burrito is amazing. The chorizo has an incredible unique flavor. Their house salsas are good also. Definitely worth the trip for some burritos. Highly recommend.

It was my first time, I ordered the OG burrito! They did not skimp out on anything, I felt like it was a great portion of eggs some places don’t give you a lot of eggs in your burrito. Flavor was on point. Their medium green salsa had a good kick. Very smart of them to be outside of a Home Depot. I think they should have multiple locations outside of Home Depot.

Stopped by LJ’s Lil’ Cafe while running errands in the area and didn’t expect much beyond a quick breakfast, but it ended up being a solid find. It’s set up in the Home Depot parking lot, so definitely easy to miss if you’re not looking for it. We ordered the Spicy OG Breakfast Burrito, LJ’s Breakfast Sammy, the LA Dog, and the queso tots. The Spicy OG breakfast burrito was probably the best one I’ve had recently in the OC — good size, filling, and the flavors worked really well together. The queso tots were also really good and easy to share. The LJ’s Sammy was solid, especially with their sauce, and the LA Dog was a nice extra if you’re in the mood for something different. They have a couple of picnic tables, but most seem to order for takeout as we did too. Overall, it’s a great spot to keep in mind if you’re nearby and want a reliable breakfast. I’d come back to try more of the menu.

It is not worth the $17 and one hour it took for me to get the burrito. It was disappointing and I feel like I could've gotten any other burrito from a small taco stand that would have been equally as good, only about $10, and a 5 minute drive through. In total it was about $35 for two burritos and two sauces. Do not waste your time and get caught in the social media bait

These guys make the best breakfast burritos I have ever had; it's a little on the pricy side but it is sooooooo good and also very filling as well, it's definitely possible to get 2 meals out of a burrito. If you are ever in the area and want something good, this is a must try spot. *Tip: order online and schedule the ahead of time, sometimes the wait times can get a bit long.

This has got to be one of the best breakfast burritos I’ve tried in OC! I went with their spicy queso burrito and man, it was full of flavor. I got extra meat and shared half between me and my wife. Both of us were really full. The burnt tots were pretty good too, although a little salty. I recommend ordering online as they are very busy and popular! It could take up to an hour or more.

LJ's Lil’ Cafe is a great local spot for breakfast and lunch. Its comfort food is delicious and unique. The menu isn't huge, but it has tasty offerings for any craving. The cafe is attached to the front of Home Depot. There are a few bench tables to enjoy your meals, but many prefer to grab and go. My recent favorites included the OG Burrito, LJ's Sammy, Cheeseburger, and tater tots. The breakfast burritos are huge and have crispy tots instead of hashbrowns or plain potatoes, which add a nice texture to each bite. The burgers and dogs are also well-made. The hot dogs can get messy as the buns will break apart from all the ingredients, but still delicious. The housemade sauces add an excellent addition to any of the meals for an extra cost. 

Service has always been friendly. Ordering online on their website is highly recommended if you're in a rush or don't like lines. Walk-ups, if you're lucky, will get your food within 10-20min. The food is worth the wait, though. I've seen some long lines at peak lunchtime. It's that good!

This family-owned business is usually open at their posted times, but they've been closed occasionally due to personal reasons. It happens, and I'm still happy to support locals. They are open Mon-Fri & Sundays.

I got the spicy OG with habanero sauce. The burrito itself is bigger than a brick. I was only able to eat half of it. Very heavy on the tater tots, but the tater tots were perfectly cooked. I wish there was a little bit more protein in there, but everything tasted good. The vibe that is going on there is great. The people that are working there/owners really treat you kind and professional almost like an In-N-Out type service. I would definitely go again.

My friends Keith and Julie told me about this spot. They stop here before/after their cruises out of Long Beach. They said that the breakfast burritos are bomb, so I had to try them out. You know what? They weren't lying! AMAZING! I met my buddy here on Sunday morning before I drove back to Phoenix. We got there about 8:15am and there were already people in line (They open at 8:00am.) I ordered the OG Breakfast Burrito without the sauce, and went with the serrano salsa. Total was about $17.00, a little pricey for a breakfast burrito, but worth it in the end. They tell you that they make everything fresh, so the wait would be about 15-20 minutes. They call your name and you pick up your burrito at the window. How was it? OG Breakfast Burrito- First of all, this thing was heavy! Not the biggest burrito I have seen, but it was stuffed perfectly with each ingredient and the flavors hummed as I was munching through it. The OG has eggs, crispy hash browns, bacon, cheese and Portuguese sausage chunks in it. They slice it in half for you so you can see the goodness you are about to consume. It was so good...might have ruined any/all breakfast burritos for me in the future. My gold standard before this one was a Cotijas Hashbrown Burrito down in San Diego, but this one blew it out of the water. Literally every element of the burrito worked well together, and every bite was wonderful. The green serrano salsa is bomb, too! Spicy, but not too hot. A little avocado base and some heat cant be beat! They give you a nice size portion of it, too! Overall, this was fantastic! Easily the best breakfast burrito I have ever had. It's definitely not "cheap" but the quality and flavor make up for the price tag. I will gladly pay for this every single time, without thinking. Can't wait until I'm back in LA to get another one!

been frequenting this spot for a couple of times now since I've found them on IG while looking for top 10 breakfast spots in OC. Hands down they make some great burritos. My go to are the OG and the Spicy OG burrito. The burritos are very filling and it's the size of my forearm. Do bare in mind that it is made to order so expect to wait sometimes. Roughly 20-40 mins --- that's my only gripe, but its food made to order so it's slightly worth it. Sauces are delicious and services are friendly. They have two locations but I prefer this (home depot) over the other location. More so convenience.

First and foremost, I'm quite sure that most of us that's trying this restaurant is because of TikTok. While those food reviews look really good. The food is very much so mid. I ordered the spicy OG burrito. First and foremost, let me just say that the burrito starts at 15.99..... for a burrito! Now, if you think that's pretty reasonable, let's get started on really what's wrong here. As you can tell by the burrito. This is literally a hash brown burrito wrapped in a tortilla. There's hardly any egg and hardly any meat. Not to mention, I asked for add-ons. The add-ons are $2.99! For one! They are quite literally charging you $2.99 for 2 to 3 slices of avocado when an entire avocado only costs about a $1 maybe $1.50. And also charging you for $2.99 for maybe one to two slices of bacon. But as you can tell by the picture, where is the bacon!? I paid three dollars for bacon, but did not taste any of it. While I understand that there are a small business, this place is extremely overrated. The prices are astronomical and I definitely do not understand the hype. The food is definitely not bad, but they are truly taking advantage of TikTok and choosing to raise their prices. This is insane! I got sick immediately after. The oil is HEAVY. If you're looking for an OVER PRICED tater tot burrito with little to no meat (either the added meat you paid for or the meat it was supposed to come with) then you're in the right place. I'm convinced that the 5 star reviews are of people with child like tastebuds lol. Because ain't NO WAY. The food is flavorless and just very very mid.

Breakfast burritos at Home Depot?! Yes, they're massive and delicious!! Service was great, it was fast, and it was worth the wait. Will definitely go back to try a different breakfast burrito or maybe a hamburger.

... I could eat a breakfast burrito (ok, half) everyday, so they always catch my eye. I saw this place advertised awhile ago... and today while running errands... it said I was 5 min away... so I re-routed myself... to HOME DEPOT! LOL It's 10:44 am and they have quite a business going on here. Pretty smart idea to sell good burritos in addition to hot dogs! I went for the Queso burrito cuz who doesn't like Queso? Even tho you can pick your salsa, there was something pretty spicy in this today... but in a good way! I can handle a little heat! What seemed to be unique was it seemed the tater tots (which were VERY crunchy) were chopped up instead of whole ... and that made the unique difference. I'm sure you'll agree that most breakfast burritos have too much potato (filler)... but I'd like to try another flavor another time, just because of this unique difference. I also love crunchy anything! I was only able to barely eat half, so since I had asked for it wrapped it two, I was able to give it to a friend. Note also that their variety of salsas totally homemade. Nothing lacks flavor here. I'll be back...

Have seen LJ's many, many times as it's the walk-up cafe built into the front of the Home Depot (to the right as you exit). Tried the OG burrito and it was huge and packed with eggs, tator tots, portuguese sausage and lots of bacon. Lots of flavor and highly recommended. Unlike most CA breakfast burritos which taste simply like eggs with meat, this one almost seemed HI style with layered flavors and almost everything having a taste to it. There is a 15-min wait for your order but if you order before going into HD, it'll be ready on your way out.

Haven't had a post worthy breakfast burrito in a while now. I ordered OG breakfast burrito, spicy OG & Chorizo. Couldn't take a photo of the other ones before they took a bite out of it. All 3 was packed with eggs, cheese, tots & protein. The tater tots inside gave the burrito a great texture. Orders take a bit longer to prepare, try to order online first since it's a small shack located next to Home Depot. I ordered online ahead of time, when got there for pickup there was a long line of people waiting in the rain. For $15-16 for this quality it was worth it.

Can't even count how many times I've been here but it's been a great love for a few years now. The OG burrito is my go-to always -- the portuguese sausage and crispy tater tots make it the best breakfast burrito in OC! Quality is the highest and the burritos are HEFTY! It's perfect for sharing. This location is a shack outside Home Depot. There's limited outdoor seating, but for the most part, it's to-go only. Service is always the best. I believe they still take orders over the phone, but I always opt for ordering online.

2nd time eating but ordered from online User friendly easily to customize Clear options and pricing No service fees Upon order confirm, email sent and text providing estimated time of pickup and order number Located in front a Home Depot, few picnic benches to sit, free parking but watch out as there are plenty of cars and people constantly going. Blends with the store front, quaint cozy spot Will receive update messages about when order is ready Local spot and hidden gem Everyone seem patient, calm setting, person at the window spoke clearly and was polite Family kid friendly solo quick bite grab and go Hearty burrito (went with the OG) filled with flavor but not overwhelming crispy tater tot eggs cheese meat salt pepper sauce provided pending the type and extra sauce cost more Other things served Hamburger hot dog for lunch and tater sides and chips and small selection of drinks Would venture back on a treat

IM IN AWE OF HOW GOOD EVERY SINGLE BITE IS. this is truly the best breakfast burrito I have had so far!! I loved every element in the burrito. The tater tots were SO crispy, the cheese was perfectly melted, the meat was SO juicy and SO flavorful, and the salsa was SO fresh. They give you the salsa in a pretty big container so there's plenty to drench your burrito in. I highly recommend getting some of the other salsas because it's nice trying the different combinations of the sauces with the burrito.

Forget all other breakfast burritos you've had because LJ's sets the bar on a whole 'nother level. I thought that I had had good breakfast burritos, even REALLY GREAT ones, but they all pale to those being served out of this shack in front of Home Depot. LJ's Lil' Cafe is a local favorite for all things breakfast burritos. Unassuming from the outside as it's just a small walk-up window stationed in front of a Home Depot, what's cooking up inside is simply magical. I got their Spicy OG Breakfast Burrito which features eggs, tater tots, hot Italian sausage, cheese, and jalapeños. It was perfection wrapped in a tortilla. The eggs were fluffy, the tots were crunchy, the sausage had a nice snap to it. Literally, no notes! Each burrito comes with a side of salsa. You can choose from their signature, red, or green. I opted for the green one-- super refreshing with just the right amount of spice. What stood out to me about their salsa was the portion size. They don't skimp on it and give you a fat tub! If you're feeling extra saucy, they do offer extra salsa servings for purchase, but one tub was plenty to slather around for me.

I got their OG Breakfast Burrito and it was a life-changing experience. I will never forget it. The cheese was melty, the tots were so crispy, the eggs fluffy, everything about it was done so well. These burritos are huge! Just one burrito was enough for me to share with a friend. When I'm craving a breakfast burrito now, this is the only spot I'll go to! The employees are so nice as well, it just made the experience even better. It took about 10 minutes for us to receive our order but we didn't mind the wait. This shop is located in the parking lot of a Home Depot, so parking isn't too hard to find.

For a more traditional breakfast burrito, it's very solid. One burrito can feed one very hungry person or be shared for a not TOO? heavy meal! It's not my fav bfast burrito, but it's probably top 3! ======== Veggie burrito 4/5 $16ish (added Portuguese sausage + pickled jalepeno) I also added an extra side of salsa and requested light tots + cheese. The tots were crispy and were a little soft after 40min, but when eaten fresh it's tasty. I didn't find too much Portuguese sausage in my burrito, so next time I probably don't even need it lol the breakfast burrito was good with cilantro crema and ketchup! When you get to the end of the burrito, the tortilla bottom is not saturated in grease so that's nice. Tortilla was yummy, will prolly request extra toasted next time! Eggs weren't overcooked and soft enough with ample ingredients inside. Serrano salsa is very spicy, I could not handle haha Service you kinda gotta enunciate your order as it's loud since the kitchen is right next to the cashier. Guy who took my order was nice!

Little spot outside of Home Depot yet such an unsuspectingly great spot for breakfast burritos! Service was nice and quick. Food takes a little waiting but nothing over the top, I waited for 10-15 minutes for my order as there were several people ahead of me. Got the OG Burrito and Spicy OG Burrito with mild salsa, medium green serrano salsa, and the cilantro crema. The burritos have the average breakfast fillings: potatoes, meat, egg, cheese, and sauce. It's hefty and best enjoyed right away! Otherwise, it can get greasy if you reheat and eat. Their salsas is what makes it for me! Fresh, flavorful, spicy! My favorites were the mild salsa and the medium green serrano salsa. Overall, it is such a great spot to stop by for some delicious breakfast! Their salsa selection is so fresh and a wonderful pairing to their burritos. I'd recommend this spot!

Finally had a chance to make it here and ohhh myyy gawwwww. This cranks out great breakfast burritos. First visit got the queso burrito and took home held up good on the ride home so very big and good. I'm a tater tot lover and anyplace that offers tots for breakfast gets 3 stars off the bat! 2nd visit got the og. And again, I was just saying mmmm mmmm mmm while I was chewing. Oh so good. Great friendly staff from order window to pick up. Made you feel as if you're family. A a hut perfectly located in front of Home Depot and has 2 picnic tables with umbrellas in front to enjoy. Or tail gate it in the parking lot which I did. Legit 5 stars!

As always, this place is delicious. The OG is my go-to, especially with the green sauce. The green sauce has the perfect amount of heat and acidity to cut through the delicious fat. Service is friendly and the burrito takes 10-15 because they're made to order. There's some tables with an umbrella to sit and wait too.

This is my new favorite breakfast burrito spot in OC!!! They're located right outside a Home Depot in Cypress, you can't miss it. There are only two picnic tables outside so most people just grab and go. They're known for their burritos and sandwiches which I have yet to try the sandwich! Their burritos are loaded with so much cheese, fluffy eggs, tots, and the delicious spicy sausage. If you like the heat, the habanero salsa is a must get here. I wish this was closer to home!

First and foremost staff is accommodating and nice. Small spot you wouldn't think much passing by in fact it took social media to shine a spotlight on it just to realize just how close I live to the place for over 20 years. I can't seem to justify the $17 price tag on the burrito I will say it's well executed and consistent the Portuguese sausage has a wonderful snap and the tots are always crispy their is a very nice portioning through out the burrito. The sauces are flavorful my favorite is the green salsa it really balances out the burritos richness. I take back now the price tag not being justified because I want a burrito on a full stomach and that speaks volumes. Highly recommend this place.

I friend of mine has raved about LJ's Lil' Cafe for quite a while now for their delicious breakfast burritos. I've been wanting to go a while back but never had the chance because it's so out of the way for me but I finally did this past week! I had a quick check-up at my dentist the other day and saw that LJ's was about 10 minutes away. Once I was finished, I hopped onto their website and ordered their Spicy OG Breakfast Burrito with green salsa for pickup. I placed my order at 9:33AM and was given an estimated ready time for 9:50AM. I arrived early and my order was ready by the time I parked! Loved how filling it was along with the cheese pull. Everything was fresh and so delicious. I loved the flavor of their chunky green salsa. The tater tots were so crispy which was a plus! The hot Italian sausage was delicious and whatever's in that LJ's sauce was BOMBDOTCOM. Is LJ's breakfast burrito my absolute favorite? Nope. Is it in my top 5 of all-time? Heck yeah! I'll definitely be back in the near future because this hole-in-the-wall is easily one of the best breakfast burritos around!

Apparently Orange County has the holy trinity when it comes to breakfast burrito - Athenian #3 in Buena Park, Nate's Korner in Santa Ana, and Nick's Deli in Los Alamitos and Seal Beach. I first heard about LJ's Lil' Cafe from an Eater's article ( https://la.eater.com/2022/6/23/23179020/orange-county-breakfast-burrito-ljs-lil-cafe-cypress-home-depot-new-oc ) and the article stated that this spot serves up one of the best breakfast burritos in Orange County. This outdoor cafe was opened in 2021 and is literally located right next to the exit of Home Depot. LJ's Lil' Cafe currently has a new brick-and-mortar location in the City of Orange and owners used to work at Season 52 in Costa Mesa. [Parking]: Easy Home Depot parking lot. [Atmosphere]: This is an outdoor cafe (built from a trailer) with only two outdoor picnic tables. Most customers pre-order ahead of time and this is not a sit-down dining spot. [Ordering]: First time I ordered in person and my burrito was ready in 10 minutes. Second time I placed an online order and received a notification stating that my order will be ready in 20-30 minutes. I eventually got a text message that my order is almost ready after 15 minutes. I ultimately received my order at the pickup window after stating my name & there was no delay. [Menu]: A simple breakfast menu with just 6 items. The most popular burrito is OG Burrito and each burrito comes with 1 of 5 different salsa - LJ's Signature, Mild Red Roasted, Medium Green Serrano, Hot Habanero, and Creamy Cilantro Crema. First sala per burrito is complimentary and additional 3.25 ounce salas are $0.75 each. The only non-burrito item on the menu is the breakfast sandwich. *** OG Burrito (3 eggs, tater tots, Portuguese Hawaiian sausage, bacon, mixed cheese, LJ's sauce - Mild Red Roasted Salsa, $15.99): Love crunchy tater tot and mild salsa had a strong and fresh tomato aftertaste. It was a huge burrito and it was nice that the staff already cut it in half. Spicy OG (3 eggs, tater tots, hot Italian sausage, mixed cheese, grilled jalapeños, and LJ's special sauce - Medium Green Serrano Salsa, $15.99): It had mild spiciness level which was good as I like to go easy on my stomach. Green chili sauce was also not unbearably spicy so I could actually taste the flavor profile of the burrito. *** A solid 4.5-star for both OG and Spicy OG breakfast burritos, but I personally have a slight preference on OG Burrito. Bump up to 5-star on an efficient online order pickup process. Their salsas aren't as good as salsa from Ham 'n Scram, but OG Burrito is just as good as breakfast burrito from Ham 'n Scram if not slightly better.

Burrito was incredible. It's probably the best I've had in LA. Ordered it ahead of time and when I got there it was ready. Tater tot's were also really good, crunchy but nice and warm in the inside. Staff were attentive! Would recommend to anyone who loves bfast burritos !

I've been wanting to try this place for awhile now. I've heard so many good reviews from others, I finally was able to get my hands on it and proud to say it did not disappoint. I got the OG Burrito and the Spicy OG burrito and it was delicious! The burrito was the perfect breakfast burrito. The sauces that came with it made it ever better. The workers were so helpful to help me decide what was best! It's not a sit down but very limited sitting. This is more of a grab and go. Definitely will be coming back!!

I gotta tell you I have a Love for breakfast burritos and there's nothing like finding a spot that checks all the boxes when you're looking for a great breakfast burrito. This place is legit as it comes. In my opinion. Yes, the options are different as they offer Portuguese sausage instead of regular sausage, but to me, that's what makes it unique. Do yourself a favor order online it scheduled you a pick up time and save yourself to hassle in the Waite by just showing up and trying to order as it does get really busy on the weekends. The OG burrito here is amazing even after the drive home the tater tot steak crispy which I love and it's just a hearty breakfast burrito. My wife gets the veggie one which is also really good and make sure you get some LJ sauce in that bad boy which really changes the game do yourself a favor get to this place ASAP and check out what they have to offer.

Wanted a filling breakfast but not something TOO hearty, so we stopped by LJ's Lil Cafe to get a nice handheld brekkie! We originally wanted to get breakfast burritos but turns out the menu we were looking at wasn't updated, so they were more expensive than we were expecting ($16). Sometimes you don't wanna spend more than what you had in mind! So we both opted to get the LJ's Sammy ($12) instead The sandwiches were very good! The eggs are scrambled with cheese so you get nice, gooey, cheesy bites. You can choose between bacon or sausage, or pay extra for both, so I got bacon; nice and crispy! I also really enjoyed the sauce, it's probably a spicy mayo of some sort but way better than just your typical mayo + sriracha. Also loooved how soft the brioche buns were

Okay, I ordered online and I was a bit put off because I only later discovered that it was located in a Home Depot parking lot and that it takes them an hour to prepare a take out burrito. I was hoping to grab a quick bite before hitting the road out of the area, so I explained to the guy that H did not realize their typical wait time was an hour and he pushed my order through quickly. Well, lucky me. That guy did a nice thing and I got to enjoy a super tasty breakfast burrito. I typically to not prefer tater tots in my breakfast burrito, but this one was hands down fantastic. Great flavor, cheesy, not soggy at all, not dry, great tasting sausage, and very very fluffy eggs. Also, I'm a big eater, but even for me this was two meals. Yum! Anyway, be advised that it takes them a while to prepare your order, but if you have time, do not hold back. Way above average breakfast burrito.

Small stall shop located outside of home depot. The food was delicious. Probably ranked in my top 5 best breakfast burrito in socal. The tator tots were crispy and delicious. It was a little too cheesy for me which i will remember next time i order to reduce the cheese. There were two bench tables for customers. Wait time was 10 minutes. They recommend to call ahead. There was a stream of customers but no long lines on a tuesday morning 10am. Service was friendly and prompt with realistic expectations on wait times. I would come back if im ever in the area.

Saw this place on a "Best Breakfast Burritos" list on IG and I bookmarked it. I was going to be in the area, so I ordered ahead using their website. I got 3 OG burritos and 2 Chorizo. Selected the time for pick up and finished the order. Got there on time and just as I parked, I got a text saying my order was ready for pick up. The employee at the pick up window was nice and friendly. Gave him my order info and he found my ticket and he started packing up my order. The OG was really good. The first thing I noticed, the tortilla had a nice crunch to it. Usually, the tortillas on breakfast burritos are soggy or chewy. This was not. The tater tots were still crunchy, the eggs were fluffy and the burrito was not a bit oily. I just wished there was a tad more Portuguese sausage in it. But all in all - it was a good breakfast burrito. The chorizo burrito, was not as good as the OG. It's not your traditional oily, grease dripping out spicy chorizo that you're probably used to. The tortilla had the same toasty crunch as the OG, the eggs were nicely cooked but it didn't have much chorizo in it. The OG was good and I'd get it again. IF you haven't been before, it's a small shack right in front of the Home Depot.

finally got to try this famous breakfast burrito spot! i got the spicy OG with spicy habanero salad. i was told the wait could be up to 45 mins (on a Saturday around 11am), but it turned out to be only about 30 mins. the portion is huge, definitely could feed two people or one person for two meals. yummy!

LJ's has been on my list of places to try for the longest of times now, but it just kept slipping my mind until now. I love the idea of it being in the corner of a Home Depot. It's great. There was no line when I went up to order, but they did get busy shortly afterwards. You can also order online if you want to skip the line. Fortunately, I didn't have to wait too long for my order, 10 minutes max. And they do have two picnic tables there if you want to eat it fresh. I got the OG burrito with spicy salsa. Everything was cooked to perfection. The tater tots were super crispy and added a great crunchy texture to the burrito. The eggs were silky smooth, creamy and custardy, with the cheese perfectly melted in between the layers. The bacon added that animal fat and salty flavor. I couldn't really taste the sausage too much, but everything together was amazing. The salsa was refreshing and helped cut the grease. I'd definitely come back whenever I'm craving a breakfast burrito!!

Wow. Just... wow. This is one of those spots I desperately want to gatekeep--but alas, the world deserves to know. Because this place? It's breakfast burrito nirvana. Tucked away on the side of Home Depot like a culinary speakeasy for people who know what's up, this literal hole-in-the-wall is dishing out the best breakfast burritos you'll ever have. No frills. No nonsense. Just juicy, flavor-packed greatness wrapped in a tortilla. The crispy potatoes? Golden and glorious. The salsa? Fresh with a subtle kick that says, "Good morning, now wake up and love your life." Each bite is a symphony of breakfast dreams. And the portions? Let's just say your burrito has a burrito inside it. You'll be full for the rest of the day--and maybe even the next. It's basically a 2-for-1 situation, but instead of a coupon, you just get blessed.

I've been wanting to try out their breakfast burritos for a while now after seeing them on social media and omg they did NOT disappoint! I got the OG and chorizo burrito with LJ's signature sauce and they were soo good (and huge)! The crunch from the tater tots, the onions, and the flavorful, fluffy egg were the best! The guy who helped me out was also extremely friendly and I'll definitely be coming back!

Delicious, hefty breakfast burritos. Ordered the OG Burrito with spicy salsa. A little tater tot heavy, but the tots were extra crispy. Seemed a little light on the sausage. Very filling; did not need the queso tots I ordered. I was stuffed... Service is friendly. Everything is made fresh to order. Strange location being in the Home Depot, but it works!

The perfect place to hit up after you've gone to the swap meet on the weekend or just getting supplies at Home Depot. Perfect as a solo destination to. I always get the veggie burrito with red and green sauce and roasted jalapeños. My mouth waters is just thinking of the glorious golden toasted burrito exterior and the succulent buttery eggs, hash brown nuggets, bell peppers and cheddar cheese. The portions big enough that I make two small meals from one fat burrito. They have 2 picnic benches save yourself a spot because you're not gonna want to wait and get home. Eat now, you must.

4.5/5 2/5 ($$) parking lot (shared w/ Home Depot) og breakfast burrito so delicious and LOADED! you will definitely be stuffed after this HUGE burrito from @ljslilcafe . we stumbled across this place when we looking for breakfast places down in oc, and we are so happy we did! the burrito came with sausage, bacon, eggs, cheese, AND SUPER CRUNCHY TATER TOTS! the tater tots were probably the best part -- I still think of this burrito and would 100% drive an hour just to get it

I learned about this from an IG reel and they're right that it's pretty much an extension of Home Depot. It's between the entrance and exit of the store and not a standalone structure like I initially thought. I ordered the OG breakfast burrito and it was crispy and fresh. A bit salty, but that's to be expected with Portuguese sausage and tater tots. The salsa is not like the ones you get at taco shops. It's actual salsa, so be ready for that. The service was pretty solid and the food came out exactly 10 minutes like the cashier said. There are a couple picnic tables on the outside if you wanna eat it there.

Figured I try this place out after all the reviews on it I've seen on Instagram and recommendations from other people. While the prices were high (about $17/burrito with tax) it was worth that price. I got the OG burrito with the OG sauce. From opening up the wrapping to the initial smell, you could tell it was a higher quality burrito that would stand out. The size of the sauce was a nice change. They actually give you enough in 1 compared to every other place where you need like 4 to get the whole burrito covered. The taste was very very good. A top 2 burrito for me. My friends who got the same thing said it was perfection and the best they've ever had. Coming back 100%

First time coming here, was really excited because heard alot about this place. got the spicy burrito, in my opinion it was good, but i'm probably would try other meat options. the burrito had a good size too it, sauces were good and big but mine was a lot of potatoes. nonetheless I would come back and try other's.

**Disappointed--Twice Now. Not Worth the Hype or the Price.** This was my second time trying LJ's, but my first visit to the Cypress location. Unfortunately, it didn't redeem my first experience at their Orange location--and that's saying something. At the Orange location, I ordered a veggie breakfast burrito *without* the tortilla. They managed to make it--but forgot the eggs. Kind of a key ingredient in a *breakfast* burrito. I had to point it out myself. I also ordered the queso burrito with mixed cheese but was given Oaxaca cheese instead, which I specifically don't like. It made the whole thing pretty unpleasant. They did try to make it right by giving me a card for a free entrée, valid at either location. So, I decided to give the Cypress location a shot, hoping for a better outcome. I ordered the OG breakfast burrito with extra cheese and asked for the LJ sauce on the side, plus a side of their red salsa and an order of queso tots. I was told there'd be a 45-minute wait, which was fine--I ran to the grocery store and came back after about an hour. When I picked up the order, the cashier read it back to me and mentioned they had cut the burrito in half "to make it easier to eat," which I didn't ask for but could live with. She also confirmed the sauce on the side (even wrote "SOS" on the wrapper) and asked what salsa I wanted--red, which I got. But when I got home, there was *no* LJ sauce. That's what I had been excited to finally try, so it was a letdown. It was on the screen/ receipt, and even handwritten on the wrapper. If there was an extra charge for it, I would've gladly paid--just tell me. The queso tots were also a major disappointment. They were way overcooked--practically inedible, dry, and flavorless. You can see in the photos how burnt they were. As for the burrito itself, it was okay but overly stuffed with tater tots. I barely got any eggs until the bottom and there was hardly any sausage or bacon. It felt more like a potato burrito than a breakfast burrito, which wasn't what I paid for. To make matters worse, I called the location to report the missing sauce and the inedible tots, but they don't answer phones on weekends. You just get a recording that eventually hangs up. Not exactly great customer service. Overall, this was strike two for LJ's. Between the long waits, missing ingredients, poor quality control, and lack of customer service, I can't justify the price or the hype. I won't be back.

AWESOME SPOT! Some of the best breakfast burritos around! I love the Spicy OG, their LJ sauce & green salsa are also delicious with the burrito! Service here is so sweet and friendly. Weekday lines are so short and quick! I only have good things to say about this place. Absolutely love this spot so much!!

Wow, if you're looking for a delicious, hearty breakfast burrito, then look no more! After perusing through the reviews, I learned that it's best to either call ahead or order online to avoid the lines. We got the OG breakfast burrito and spicy OG breakfast burrito and both were delicious! I love the tater tots as they were very crispy. The fillings were so good. I highly recommend trying one of each salsa and they were nice enough to comp us some LJ special sauce too. I highly recommend. I would love it if there was a closer location though. Overall, prices are decent. Credit cards are accepted and there's plenty of parking

Heard about this place from a coworker and decided to check it out. This location is connected to the front of a home depot, so no need to think you went to the wrong parking lot. The staff was very nice and helpful when it came to ordering 5/5. I ordered the OG breakfast burrito which was $16 and got a side of the LJ's sauce. The hash browns were crispy and the cross section didn't appear greasy. After eating half of the burrito, I felt like it was a standard breakfast burrito. Everything that was listed for the burrito sounded great, but together it just didn't pack a punch in the flavor department leading to a 3/5. Side note: my friends burrito cheese didn't melt fully in the burrito.

Fire best breakfast burrito in Oc probably Cali !! I use to go a while ago ,, n I would declined getting salsa , the owner ask why I told him I had my own habanero salsa at home , and let me tell you they came out with one and it's really good I do now request for their salsa

LJ's Lil Café has the best burritos! Located at the front of Home Depot, this tiny little shack is growing in popularity. When they first opened, you would have to place your order and come back to pick it up. Now, they offer online ordering. The burritos are HUGE, they're perfect to share. So glad there's a new breakfast burrito spot that is just as worthy as Nick's Deli and Ham & Scram! They have two picnic tables where you can enjoy your meal nice and fresh. They are closed on Mondays but open Tues-Saturday from 7:30 am - 2:00 pm. Sunday's they're open from 8:00 am - 1:00 pm. I highly recommend you give it a try.

Yummy burritos, and love that this place is by a Home Depot so there's plenty of parking! It's an unassuming small shack with a few picnic tables to eat at outside. I came here around 1pm on a Saturday and waited for my burrito for around 20 minutes. I ordered the chorizo breakfast burrito. It was large enough to split it into two meals for me, which justified the price point of $15+. My partner ordered the OG Breakfast burrito with the sausage, which was also great. These burritos was salty, cheesy, crunchy from the tater tots, and overall very delicious! I also really enjoyed their salsas. I drove out around 30 minutes to check this place out and it was very much worth it!

So disappointing to see a great place be ran by people with no customer service skills. Undercooked eggs shouldn't be in a burrito. When I politely asked about my eggs the cashier was rude and did not want to help me out. She took my whole burrito to the kitchen and came back with it in her hand and said it was cheese. I'm sorry, but if I am paying $30 for a burrito and paying extra for egg whites. I think I should be able to get what I'm paying for not one to complain, but this was the most experience I have ever had there was no attempt to make things better or make it right instead. It was just pure rudeness from start to finish.

LOOK AT THAT CHEESE PULLLLL. Any establishment that has tater tots in their burritos is automatically one of my favorite places. They understandably raised prices due to the egg shortage, but the quality was so good, and the salsa was a great addition to spice up the burrito. Incredibly fresh, great combination of ingredients for these burritos.

Super huge portions and gives so much within the burrito. We got the veggie and the meat - loved the veggie more but it was really good!

I mean this place was viral in tik tok and I wanted to try it. IT IS DELICIOUS! Tucked in the parking lot of a homedepot. The tastiest tots. Great awesome service and HUGE BURRITOS
