Didn't have high expectations but wow this place has some of the best tacos in the area. Very cheap but full of flavor. Highly recommend. Had their carne asada taquito and flautas

for the price, food is great!! Staff is nice. A good place to come for a quick bite. It nice that it is located next to a bread store and grocery store. Will come back.

For me the name of the place was enough to get me into the parking lot. I have had great luck with la Paloma's in other times and places. Like the one in Madera next to the livestock auction yard where I had a come to Jesus moment with the finest Chili colorado there could possibly be. No relation to this place of course but still I have always had respect for past successes. THIS version is one of those steam table places where the menu isn't as important as what you see before your very eyes. Next door is the bakery where the tortillas are made along with assorted breads and cookies and turnovers. All terrific but not what I had come in for which had been coffee. Instead, out of the corner of eye I spied a vat of red sauce with meaty little rib bones poking out. In my third rate Spanglish I asked if by chance that was birria de chivo. Answer: si senor. I almost believe there is a god somewhere looking after my wants if not needs (and frankly I value the former far more than the latter). This place, not to even mention the birria, is fantastic.

Honestly love this place and it's literally right around the corner from me. You'll usually catch me here on the weekend early morning getting a bowl of menudo, soooo good. On the weekends usually in the morning you'll see them making fresh tortillas in the back, which I love ! It's not the best looking place but the food is great!

Always good always fast and affordable. Real Mexican food. Love it Lots to choose from and everyone is so nice. I will continue going here

If you are looking for a quality Mexican place in Monrovia area ,don't further more. It's authentic and full of verities. I ordered cabeza tacos. How delicious!!food was fresh and meat was tender. It was tasty but not over casting the taste. BREAD IS MADE FRESH AT SPOT. see pictures.let that sink on for a second. Staff were amazing and serve you the nicest way. Low volume Mexican songs at back ground that does not interfere with our conversation. I believe bathrooms and whole place needs a remodeling. But food is amazing.

The local place to go for pan dulce, fresh tortillas, tamales, masa etc. get there early on weekends for best selection. Parking is tight.
