I may be biased because I went to Pepperdine so these breakfast burritos basically fueled four years of my life but these are my GOAT. Get the Bacon Breakfast Burrito and add potatoes (and avocado if you’re feeling that) plus extra hot sauce on the s...

This place is on basically every list of “Best Breakfast Burritos in LA” for a reason. The bacon is perfectly cooked every time, the tots are fresh and crispy, and that cilantro crema cannot be beat. Finally a breakfast burrito that isn’t overhyped!

Everything you want in a breakfast burrito, fresh and appropriately sized. I get the Bacon and add Avocado, but these Pastrami is next level and so unique.

Don’t sleep on this Culver City taco joint serving up some surprisingly tasty breakfast burritos. The best thing on their menu! Ask for extra Chipotle Aioli if you love sauce, theirs is unreal.

The Rico Suave is so well-known (and good!) that you can now find it in coffee shops around the area too!

Great ambiance if you want to switch it up and do a dine-in breakfast burrito! Get the banana bread too for a little sweet and savory combo.

Very similar to Wake & Late but just not quite as good in the sauce department, which knocks it down a tick. Still a great breakfast burrito!

Not a breakfast burrito, but the best breakfast tacos (and queso!) in town. I love the Trinity, Neches, and Pecos tacos.

The Chapatis are “elevated breakfast burritos” served in a whole-wheat wrap. The Neuske’s is the bacon, avocado, and egg one that’s a true standout. Both of the sauce options are great too, but especially the candied jalapeño one.
