★★★★★ 5.0 Darío Santiago · Dec 2025

The food was a definite 5 star for me. I had a Jones Red burrito. The beef was tender and flavorful. Reminded me of home style cooking like mom used to do. The service was perfect. They brought me extra sauce at the table and a cup of water for my dad. The store was nice and clean. Temperature was on the cold side to me. In my time there it seems to be known as a takeout spot. It had customers, but they were ordering to go. Possibly because there isn't a whole lot of seating. All good, we could choose anywhere in sit! I'd love to come back to have their other offerings. Overall, I really liked this place! I think it's a 10/10 for me! Added to my favorites on the map!

Pork dishes here! Green chili pork or red chili pork -- just WOW. In a burrito, in a taco, in an enchilada, or as a side. Pork is SIX stars! I know my pork when it comes to food. It's a huge part of my cultural heritage in recipes so when I get to pork that is well-done, it gets all the respect it deserves. Isaac told us he cooks his Mom's recipes, although some of the recipes he must have fine-tuned, and it shows. The green chili or the red chili pork both are AMAzing, in all my travels, my lists of standout meat dishes, the pork is the shortest because I am so picky. Isaac's pork is on my list and underlined! Isaac's food is like a homecooked family meal. Eat it in a restaurant, or in my car, or in my hotel room (as I've taken some to go, I sure did!) and it's giving me a craving

Isaac’s is a must when in Wilmington Ca. It’s very rare I give a 5, but Isaac’s Cafe is definitely deserving. Everything on the menu is amazing and the portions are huge. The best Green Chile in all of Los Angeles. The Red Chile is like nothing I’ve tasted! Their wet burritos are 🔥 fire. Even the chips and dip is delicious. The longshoremen in San Pedro have a gem 💎 in Isaac’s! They brought me out a sample plate of all their meats to taste. Isaac’s put Ramona’s to shame.

Food was great! I got the asado burrito and it was delicious. My only complaint was the red salsa. Plenty of spice but too much tomatoe for my taste.
