Cute spot, esthetically pleasing. If you are ordering they have a kiosk that you walk up to – cashless establishment. The kiosk is right at the entrance I feel this is such a tight space they need to move it. Idk where but when you are ordering you have people brushing past you.
The filet breakfast burrito was tasty, love the cheese on the outside that’s a nice touch! The cilantro crema sauce was also very tasty and complimented the burrito well.
All in all very good.

I got the birria breakfast burrito and I enjoyed it very much. The eggs were a nice soft scramble but with very little birria and avocado. This is not a bad thing because if too much was in the burrito it would have been overstuffed and too much to eat. The tortilla was also very good and you can taste the authenticity. The salsa roja was mild and meant more for flavor rather than spice. If you live in the area this should be a go to spot but if you don’t there will most likely be other breakfast burrito places you could try near where you reside.

I had the Birria Breakfast Burrito – Cheese crusted tortilla, tater tots, scrambled eggs, artisan cheese, avocado, queso fresco. It comes with consome and cilantro crema sauce.
Birria was lumpy and lacking flavor. Consome was rich and the Cilantro Crema was light. I liked the burrito but it wasn’t spectacular, maybe a mid average. For the price, I expect to be loaded. The service was also average.

Wow! Jaime really goes above and beyond! I had my birthday dinner here and enjoyed everything we tried! I had the beef cheek quesabirria and the filet mignon tacos, both were 10/10. The Tres Leches was delicious as well. Service, food, atmosphere- all 10/10!

We’ve been a big fan of Jame so we were pumped to try Jaime! We got a reservation for happy hour and glad we did. Decent happy hour menu, the tacos were really good, I got one of each. The guac was ok, I prefer more chunky but was style solid. The happy hour margs are decent for the price. They’re still working out their service links but everyone else a super nice. We will definitely come back to try the full menu. Great addition to downtown Gundo!

Wanted to try out Jaime because i’ve been such a fan of Jame down the street. I found Jaime to be incredibly overpriced for what it is—all of their taco plates, which come with two tacos (though on the larger side) and your choice of EITHER rice or beans (really?? you’re not going to give us both?) are over $20. The tortillas on my two tacos were crumbling and the rice I ordered came in a small 3 oz cup. I was really blown away by the skimping on rice and beans. Seems like such a cheap way to bulk up an overpriced taco plate.
Service was slow and inattentive—which was surprising for a slow Wednesday night.
This is a nitpick, but the menu was hard to read? A lot of text in light pink and green.
It seems like a lot of effort was put into the aesthetics of the restaurant and less into the thoughtfulness of the menu and the execution of dishes. I get that this is El Segundo and rent can’t be cheap but it feels unforgivable to charge $23 for two mediocre tacos.

I’ve now dined here three times and will continue coming back ! The shrimp aguachiles is a generous portion for the price and I highly recommend ordering it. I prefer it over the ceviche because it has a much more bold flavor. The tacos are good but not the best for price in the area. The chicken taco is my favorite of them but it’s rather traditional. Most of the other items on their menu are a pinch expensive for what you’re getting … the kale salad is good for some roughage. The service is prompt and I enjoy sitting outside. I wish they would add a burrito to the dinner menu.

Fresh, Flavorful, and Already a Favorite!
We checked out the brand-new California Mexican spot that just opened this week—and I have to say, it already feels like it’s going to be a staple. The owners aren’t new to the scene (they’re behind Jame in El Segundo and Ospi in Venice—both incredible Italian restaurants), so I had high hopes, and they absolutely delivered.
Yes, it’s still the first week, and you could tell the team is working out some of the rhythms—lots of staff checking in, a bit of hustle happening—but honestly, I kind of love the energy of a new place getting its footing, especially when the food is this good.
We started with Margaritas—solid. Then came the guacamole with crispy black garlic and chili—it was fantastic. Chips were fresh and clearly made in-house. I had the sweet potato taco and genuinely loved it. We also tried the sweet corn tamales—so good. Others at the table ordered shrimp dishes, salads, and tacos, and everyone was happy. No notes on flavor—it was all fresh, vibrant, and delicious.
One small thing: some dishes were a bit oily for my taste – chef, hold the oil! Also, pricing-wise, the apps are pretty much on par with the mains. Between the three of us, we spent about $150 (shared a bunch, and we were hungry), so it’s not inexpensive—but the quality speaks for itself.
The location looks great too—this space used to be a Brazilian restaurant, and this transformation feels like a great addition to the neighborhood.
Welcome to the block! We’re lucky to have you. Already looking forward to coming back.

I like to check out the Taco Tuesdays in the area. This place calls itself a “Taqueria”. A taqueria is like a taco place for a pizza joint or a bakery – street food, or a food stand. This place charges $20 and up for the Taco Tuesday specials. Which includes 2 tacos and one side (rice OR beans) and the side comes in a very small dish. The food was tasty and the atmosphere was nice and cozy. High end vibes in general. Because I enjoyed the quality of the food and the cozy atmosphere, I was tempted to forgive the high price and misleading name of the place calling itself a taqueria, when a taco tuesday is supposed to be a discounted special. But what sent me over the edge was charging me extra when I asked for some salsa. This is downright criminal. In Socal of all places, it should not cost extra to want salsa with your tacos at a taqueria. The extra charge was so off putting and unwelcoming and wrong. This place bummed me out in the end.
