"Are you massively hungover, or simply in need a of a burrito? Tacos Por Favor is your spot. We support ordering the California burrito — complete with Asada and fries inside said burrito. And yes, do take a quick nap in your car after. It’s fine." - Jess Basser Sanders

"A longtime local favorite across Santa Monica and Venice, this counter never skimps on fillings and keeps the asada consistently tender and well-seasoned. Mornings mean overstuffed breakfast burritos with eggs, bacon, potatoes, cheese, and salsa, or huevos rancheros with rice and refried beans, while the chile relleno burrito—packed with cheese and chile—is a standout. Must-try dishes: breakfast burrito, chile relleno burrito." - Rebecca Roland
"Tacos please. It may look sketch on the outside, but it’s the food inside that counts. This down and dirty Mexi joint is popular for a reason: it cooks clean, simple, authentic food. Far more than tacos, this place serves up Al Pastor, Carnitas, Sopes, Mole and real Horchata - ¿comprendes? It's all made fresh daily, has great veggie options and their salsa bar is proper. So, order at the counter, take it to your table, and eat it. Done." - TRÜF
"If you’re hungover at work and your fourth cup of coffee has done nothing, it may be time for a California burrito from Tacos Por Favor. The interior of this small spot near Abbot Kinney is pretty bare bones, but there are some good booths in the back to slouch in and let your french-fry-filled burrito carry you out of that mental hole." - jess basser sanders, amy clark

"With multiple locations on the Westside, Tacos Por Favor is a longstanding favorite for burritos, alongside other Mexican classics. Order the chile relleno burrito which comes with a whole fried poblano pepper stuffed with cheese, or a carnitas burrito. Tacos Por Favor also offers multiple non-meat options including a veggie burrito, a potato burrito, and the enduring bean and cheese." - Rebecca Roland
