Customer Reviews
Im such a fvtazz and believe it or not I am picky with my food but wow this was truly a delicious burrito! It surprised me how huge it was and with the horchata it definitely makes it just right! I would 100 percent recommend this to everyone in or outside the area to come check out this spot! Very budget friendly aswell! Definitely lives up to its name.. Also, props on the interior! It definitely gives me old school diner vibes! Music and all its amazing here! Definitely coming back! (Ofc with my fvtazz)
Absolutely would recommend! Amazing food, great service and fast as can be. Whether you’re ordering for a quick pickup or catering for an event, they got you covered! Delicious spot with various locations.
Love this place so much. Best of all the El Famous locations. Their cooks are incredible here. Theres two locations much closer to me but I choose to drive over 20 minutes to this one every time.
El Famous Burrito does NOT play around. I ordered the 3 steak taco dinner and it was honestly one of the best taco plates I’ve had in a long time. The steak was perfectly seasoned, tender, and packed with flavor — not dry, not greasy, just straight up fire. You can tell they cook it fresh. The tortillas were soft and warm, and everything tasted balanced and authentic. The rice and beans were solid too — not an afterthought like some places do. The whole plate felt generous and satisfying. Service was quick, food came out hot, and the vibe felt like a true neighborhood staple. If you’re anywhere near Summit Argo and debating where to eat, stop thinking and just go to El Famous. I’ll definitely be back.
As a parent in the Wharton Elementary Parent Group, I would like to sincerely thank you for your generous donation of the chicken fajitas for our dance. I had never tried your fajitas before, and I can honestly say they were absolutely delicious! The chicken was tender, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned — they were a huge hit. We received so many great reviews from families who attended the dance. Everyone truly enjoyed them, and they helped make the evening even more special. Thank you again for your generosity and for supporting our event. We truly appreciate it!
