LEGENDARY
BIRRIA BURRITOS SINCE 1980

The Bañuelos Lugo family opened their first taqueria in the Mexican state of Zacatecas in 1980. They brought their unique brand of Zacatecan-style burritos to the Los Angeles area shortly thereafter, and since then Burritos La Palma has become a must-visit restaurant for Mexican food lovers, with their legendary birria burrito hailed by just about every LA food journalist (including the late, great Jonathan Gold) as one of the finest bites of food in all of Los Angeles.

These burritos start with a handmade soft & chewy tortilla made with flour, butter, and salt that’s been called “the best flour tortilla in Southern California” by OC Weekly, and they're rolled up with either beans & cheese or their legendary shredded braised beef birria before being crisped to golden brown. It’s not just a burrito; it’s one of LA’s most sought-after culinary experiences, and it’s shipping nationwide!

“ memorable bites, from tender, well-spiced beef birria to soul-satisfying carne deshebrada, studded with chunks of potato and green chile.”
