Yum! This place has great burritos! They're really big and the prices are reasonable. The wait was a bit long though.

It's the taco truck that grew up to be a restaurant – I remember when El Gran Burrito was just a taco truck. Now it's this building where the layout doesn't make much sense but who cares!?! Ok newbies, here's how it works and I'll teach you all you'll need to learn to order. Go to the person at the register and say a number (1-un, 2-dos, 3-tres...) followed by either burrito or taco. For example "Un Burrito" or "Tres Tacos". And then you order your drink. I recommend the Horchata (or-chat-ah). The person behind the register ... read more

Best late-night eats in Hollywood – This place rocks. Its rockness starts when you park; it has its own parking lot (can't be said of almost anywhere else in LA), and then a nice outside seating area with tables. When you come here at 2:00 am with your (drunk) friends the place is still bumpin'. And boy, the food is good drunk-food. The place has a good vibe all around. The guys working here are maestros of Mexican food. Chimichangas are good, the burritos are good, and the nachos kick major, major behind. Anyone who would r... read more

Just Not Very Good – I was only visiting L.A. for the week and my friends insisted on going to this place. It was just about the only thing open after 2am. We don't speak spanish so we had to wait for someone to help us. Finally someone came and we placed our order. All the while, the staff was laughing at us. I guess they thought it was funny. We did not feel welcome there. But our food came and we sat down. I don't think I ever had food so greasy. My rice was cold and the sour cream was not fresh. Only one of my friends fi... read more

nachos at 3am...need I say more? – Don't believe anyone who says this place is anything other than the greatest. They don't know what they are talking about. Go there. Go often. Order chicken nachos. Make friends with the trannies and try not to get into fights with the cholitas.

best deal in town – i live for burritos. this is what you need to do. go to el gran burrito, get a carne asada burrito, go to the salsa bar thing, put the tomato and onion stuff to one side of the burrito, put some of the peppers and some of the cabbage/carrot stuff on the other side, and cover the whole thing with the green sauce and then a little of the red sause. get some of everything in every bite. you're gonna have a HUGE meal at this point, and you'll only have handed over 3 dollars. you will love every bite and be co... read more
