Los Poblanos is a very small Mom & Pop restaurant serving up what is probably the best Mexican food in Glendale.
They have a pretty large selection https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/los-poblanos-restaurant-glendale-2?select=SxtsZ3vAmv8X1BGYo5x1kQ
https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/los-poblanos-restaurant-glendale-2?select=F8KvQBP31rsxxrwszGVvpw with plenty of photos of the dishes, this is their menu, and it's "Cash Only" the parking is street parking and limited. I've been here a handful of times and the food never disappoints; you get the feel of eating at a friend's house rather in some restaurant.
After you order and are seated, they give you house made Chips https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/los-poblanos-restaurant-glendale-2?select=2G7NKQ3QIpjOiYcdUF3EMg and Salsa https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/los-poblanos-restaurant-glendale-2?select=fVo6aU2PT_tuGrMncbWxtQ both were good.

If you're anywhere near this area, bring your cash and come check this place out, I'm glad to see places like this that have survived the COVID crunch that have put so many out of business.
