El Burrito Jr, nestled on Pacific Coast Highway in Redondo Beach, is a hidden gem for Mexican cuisine lovers. This cash-only establishment has garnered rave reviews for its flavor-packed offerings and generous portions. Customers like Joseph Quiles call out the Machaca Plate as a standout, while the wet burrito, particularly with shredded beef, has left a lasting impression on others. Bonnie Murphy's favorite, the Beach Basket, showcases an impressive assortment, featuring two cheese enchiladas and a sizable bean and cheese burrito, all enhanced by homemade salsa and jalapeños. Portions are notably large, ensuring that diners leave satisfied. The quick service is another highlight; as Falana Kelly notes, takeaway burritos are made with efficiency, making it easy to enjoy a delicious meal at the nearby beach. Both the bean and cheese burrito and fish burrito have delighted patrons, exemplifying the restaurant's commitment to flavor and quality. With affordable prices and a menu that celebrates traditional Mexican dishes, El Burrito Jr is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic fare in a casual and inviting atmosphere. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or a family feast, this spot will not disappoint.

I’ve driven by this place a hundred times but finally had the opportunity to eat here… how did I not do this sooner?!?! Wow! I got the “jr burrito” and it was 2 meals worth. I had the shredded beef wet burrito and it was fantastic! Great flavor, perfect mix of ingredients, and it was quick! Love this place, definitely coming again!

Great food for price. Quick turnaround for food. We had takeaway burritos and had them at the beach. They threw in chips as well which was very kind pleasant surprise.

ELBJ is a local fixture for good reason. The food is great, the prices are very reasonable, and the staff is friendly and efficient. If you’ve never been, you are missing out. This is a walk-up place. Think great food truck without the wheels. Plenty of outdoor tables if you want to eat there. All your favorite Mexican dishes are on the menu and the servings are generous.
