Montoya's — Restaurant in Los Angeles

I'm like a food critic without the license that's showing real reviews for the community. I ordered a veggie burrito with a drink called champurrado and 2 different kinds of empanada and jalapeño cheese tamales for my first time here to be totally honest its not delicious at all. I wasnt able to show proof of the presentation results of the tamales due to my hands ended up very oily from handling the tamales and the. Cheese in the tamales were very chewy and masa isn't cooked perfectly and was no jalapeño inside and was only green chilie salsa and was wet inside and dont have real flavor in the tamales and clearly wasnt properly wrapped and fell apart opening the tamales and hardly had anything inside the tamales from the big size of them. The champurrado tasted hot water and sugar with so-called flavor of the drink and the empanada barely had stuffed ingredients that was mentioned inside both kinds and literally the majority of it was just bread. The burrito was ok but had meat inside when asking for green salsa but they said verde salsa but then found out they use whats in the pot to use for green salsa because my burrito had meat in it and the person that was with me is allergic to meat and that was why I ordereda veggie burrito with egg and shared half of it and the person that was with me couldn't eat it all, they need to ask if people have any allergies of any kind when asking if people want the green verde salsa or they should make green salsa by itself only. All of it didnt sit well in both our tummies at all and had to go the the restroom right awat after driving for a little while eating and drinking little of everything and ended up throwing away most of the food from biting it a little and gave the rest away offering it to the homeless because I didnt wanna throw the drink and bread away but threw away most of the tamales. We won't be coming back here again. Its also very hard to get parking and the environment needed a upgrade and safe cones for caution upon walking...

I was so excited about this spot. I've been working in Wilmas for about a week now. The entire time I've been getting reels from social media about this joint. Finally i took the crew for lunch today. I ordered the chile Verde burrito and the other guys got the paisa. Needless to say the darn burrito was too spicy to even enjoy. My mouth is still burning and it's 7pm. This burn has lingered since noon. Lol. I can eat spicy but beyond tasting the food is just a big no for me. The paisa burrito didn't even come with chorizo like it claimed. My entire crew are Mexicanos and they did not approve. At least put up a warning sign. I understand you want to be authentic but dayum! Give it a try and support the small business. But don't say I...

I tried the chorizo breakfast burrito at Montoya's, and it really delivered. The tortilla was warm and sturdy, holding up well without getting soggy. The chorizo had a nice balance of spice and smokiness, not overly greasy, and paired perfectly with the eggs and potatoes inside. The highlight was definitely the green verde sauce — tangy, slightly spicy, and fresh-tasting, it tied everything together and gave the burrito a kick without overpowering the other flavors.

Portion size was generous enough for a filling breakfast, and the overall flavor felt authentic and satisfying. If you’re into hearty, flavorful breakfast burritos with a bit of zest, this one’s worth a stop.

Remember that...
