Im such a fvtazz and believe it or not I am picky with my food but wow this was truly a delicious burrito! It surprised me how huge it was and with the horchata it definitely makes it just right!

El Famous Burrito does NOT play around.

I ordered the 3 steak taco dinner and it was honestly one of the best taco plates I’ve had in a long time. The steak was perfectly seasoned, tender, and packed with flavor — not dry, not greasy, just straight up fire. You can tell they cook it fresh.

The tortillas were soft and warm, and everything tasted balanced and authentic. The rice and beans were solid too — not an afterthought like some places do. The whole plate felt generous and satisfying.

Service was quick, food came out hot, and the vibe felt like a true neighborhood staple.

If you’re anywhere near Summit Argo and debating where to eat, stop thinking and just go to El Famous. I’ll definitely be back.

Stopped by El Famous Burrito before work to grab a quick bite. I ordered some tacos and a horchata. The horchata was very good, though a little too sweet for me.

The asada tacos were tasty, topped with cheese, lettuce, tomato, and served with good salsa. The al pastor taco was just okay not the best I’ve had.

Overall, I’d give the experience a 6/10. Decent spot to grab food if you’re in the area, but I’d probably stick to the asada next time.

As a parent in the Wharton Elementary Parent Group, I would like to sincerely thank you for your generous donation of the chicken fajitas for our dance. I had never tried your fajitas before, and I can honestly say they were absolutely delicious! The chicken was tender, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned — they were a huge hit.
We received so many great reviews from families who attended the dance. Everyone truly enjoyed them, and they helped make the evening even more special.
Thank you again for your generosity and for supporting our event. We truly appreciate it!
