Los Angeles Burrito Alabaster — Restaurant in Alabaster

Very nice staff. Our group had mixed reviews. I was completely pleased. Everything I ordered was to satisfaction. However, a couple of stale chips ruined it for some of our group. Food was hot service was quick. Cheese was good. This establishment was clean. They had hand sanitizer readily available. Also a steady stream of customers picking up while we were there. Very nice menu value for the portions. We came after a soccer game in the surrounding area, and to our delight and surprise there was a soccer game on the screens. This restaurant had a sports bar type of feel. Kicked back environment even though it was not a bar. Very family oriented. Pictures and decor was amazing and delightful. The cashier was extremely patient. We appreciated that as many may get frustrated with large groups attempting to experience local gems. The cashier explained dishes over and over with each question asked by each separate family ordering. Thanks to these wonderful owners. They were...

Quick overview: Delicious homemade tortillas Small Street size tacos Fun presentation Friendly staff Lots of hand painted artwork

And on to the food: Tacos al Pastor - not a ton of flavor, best with both roja and Verde salsa. Not flavorful enough to stand on its own.

Tacos de Pollo - good level of flavor, chunky and charred. An average taco when paired with the sauces.

Tacos de Asada - this one was my favorite, it had enough flavor that it didn't have to rely on the sauces to prop it up.

The tacos are small. I don't have a huge appetite, but I typically would need at least 4 of their tacos for a meal.

They also have a few interesting types of meat I have not seen much at other places - milaneza, salchicha, and molida. I want to try these next time.

Also, I've heard their burgers are good too.

All in all, an average taco joint with a number of nice touches on the side. Will update this review and rating as I explore more...

I got the Desayuno Mexicano w/ a chocoflan and horchata for about $22 before tip. The place is tucked away in a mostly residential area and pretty unassuming in a small strip mall. There's a decent amount of parking, or at least there was for 3PM on a Tuesday. The interior is colorful with just some benches and tables, and the menu is extensive.

The horchata was decent, but a little watered down. The breakfast was really good, flavor wise, but the eggs seemed a little dry like they'd been under a heat lamp. Otherwise, it was flavorful and fresh tasting. The chocoflan was the only real low part of the meal. It was dry and lackluster without any real flavor palate in either the cake or the flan portion. Super letdown.

The man who took my order was nice, but the lady who gave it to me was sort of standoffish. She also forgot to give me my horchata but luckily I remembered before driving off...
