Señor G's Fresh & Healthy Mexican Food — Restaurant in Los Angeles

I have been going to Señor G’s for 7+ years now. This review is past due, as for their recognition and status in the food game at Los Angeles. From their fresh vibrant juices to their mouth watering burritos, you honestly can’t go wrong with any of their items.

Ambience:

The owner, Benjamin, is a friendly, attentive, and passionate owner. He is usually present and will take customers orders. The menu will be presented right in between the ordering window and take out window. Parking can be found right beside Senor G’s, additional parking can be found along Culver Blvd. Due to the covid lockdowns, the indoor seating area is no more, but as of today there are a couple of tables (2 people seating) situated in-front of the establishment. If you decide to eat at G’s, you’ll be greeted by the cool breeze from Playa vistas beach.

Food and Beverage:

For food, my go to are the Chicken Colorado burrito, Martins kicken chicken burrito, and of course the Carlitos way burrito.

I’ll break down the Carlitos way burrito since I believe it’s one of the best burritos out there, easily top 5 (if not top 3). The Carlitos way burrito is wrapped in a flour tortilla (other options are available such as spinach, ect.) with carne asada, grilled onions, cheese, red rice (can remove and sub for lettuce), beans (refried or black beans), a spritz of lemon, and guacamole. The burrito is well balanced, seasoned, and not drowning in grease (as typical Mexican burritos are). The carne asada has a suffice amount of fat which makes juicy, tender, and easily integrated into the burrito. Upon taking your first bite, all ingredients are proportional to one another. You’ll taste every bit of the ingredients, your palate will be presented with notes of sweetness coming from the grilled onions, followed with notes of the asada and guacamole/lemon adding a bit of acidity. Furthermore, the refried beans and rice allow for the burrito to have a soft texture but also providing structure to the burrito. To bring this burrito to another level, add some of their house made pico de gallo and habanero salsa, and enjoy.

For drinks, you can’t go wrong with the horchata, green machine, Dr. Feel good, strava smoothie, berry good smoothie, or culver smoothie. The juices are a always made to order, providing the freshest and most vibrant fruits/veggies.

If you’re reading up to this point, let me leave some crumbs. You have to order the carlitos way with refried beans, it’s a must. Want something sloppy but satisfying, order the chicken Colorado burrito with refried beans. Stop sleeping on their horchata, has a nice balance of sweetness and cinnamon. They offer complimentary chips, pico de Gallo, and ask for the habanero salsa (has a kick to it but nothing too crazy if you’re into spicy stuff). Breakfast is served all day, if you’re wondering. Lastly, enjoy your meal at the playa vista lagoon or beach, can’t go wrong with either.

I have recommended this spot to close family and friends, which all have been returning customers to G’s. Señor G’s is a staple and a true gem of Playa vista and Los Angeles. Over the past 7+ years ordering at G’s, it has always been consistent. Do not miss out, give this place a try, and...

Been coming here for over 10 years and the quality has remained consistently delicious and fresh. Prices have gone up over the last couple of years because of natural inflation and how the beach area is becoming more popular. But the large portions, hardworking employees and bright vibes honestly make this the best Mexican food you can get in the area.

They specialize in the most amazing burritos and really good Mexican breakfast plates. I am a fan of their chilaquiles, their chicken fajita salad and their garden veggie burrito.

Amazing salads, each item comes as a big portion. They make their own chips, nice thick and crunchy. You can taste the corn in their chips it’s delicious. Get the guacamole if you’re a fan of that stuff. They make it chunky and full of flavor here, so good. Super hot habanero sauce, ask for that if you like it spicy. Like, really spicy.

Oh yeah, they’re also half juice bar half restaurant. Delicious smoothies made with frozen yogurt. Playa papaya is my favorite! You can also create juices or have one of their famous blends like the Dr. Feel Good, made with beets.

Take out or eat in, eat inside or outside. Limited free parking available on side of restaurant. Open early! Breakfast served...

Other reviews can take a break, 20+ year customer coming through! I used to come here as early as 8-years-old for birthday parties, getting all my friends a wet chicken burrito. "G" himself used to bring the food out when I ate there with my sister, at a much smaller facade that has since doubled to include a juice bar. Over this whole time the only glaringly negative change is the inevitable price increase -- which is necessary given inflation and the price of this area. But luckily more hasn't changed in the right ways: best pico de Gallo in the area, friendly staff and increasingly clean and healthy Mexican food you can't find most places without it being a bs sit down vibe. For first timers that eat meat I almost always recommend the Carlitos way -- if you know you know, that marinade aint playing. For vegans make sure whatever you get you make it the HOUSE VEGGIES -- I love the veggie tostada w/ black beans and no dairy. For breakfast, everything is amazing and all plates can be made into a burrito. This place went from fueling my childhood birthday parties, to catering my dad's memorial service -- it will always be my favorite Mexican food and hold a dear place...
