Mexican breakfast hole-in-the-wall with dinner at the Duarte location.
Burritos La Palma is a Michelin Guide spot off the side of the road in El Monte. These burritos are small but packed with flavor. We got the chicken tinga and their house special, juicy, tender, and wrapped in handmade flour tortillas that steal the show. No seating, so we took ours to the park. Totally worth it just for those tortillas.

If you love tacos packed with flavor, Secret Taco is a must-try. The smoky char on the meat is incredible, and their al pastor with pineapple on top is delicious. Plus, you can grab as much salsa, onions, and toppings as you want at the self-serve bar. It's perfect for anyone who wants bold flavors and a lively, street-style taco experience.
