Get the Green (tomatillo) not the red hot sauce. I love to go to Pepe's in the morning for a burrito that is so big I cut it in half and have part for breakfast and the rest for lunch. Try their combo burrito with your choice of meats (Asada, Chicken, Shredded Beef, or Carnitas) and your choice of either beans or rice. I prefer the beans. The combo burrito also comes with fresh salsa inside made with cilantro and fresh sweet onion. Try the carnitas - they are very good.

But, instead of asking for red hot sauce, get the green tomatillo - it's much more flavorful. The red sauce has little flavor and tastes like they put dried chilies in the blender instead of fresh.

All in all a good value.

BEST BREAKFAST BURRITO IN SOCAL !!!. Pepe's has the best breakfast burrito around. The food is authentic and always delicious. Taquitos are also a must to try. This place is always so busy but the service is quick and it is always clean. 5 STARS !!!

Inexpensive combination plates, house-made salsas and specialty breakfast burritos draw professional and coed crowds to boisterous family-run restaurant.. In Short
Founded by two brothers in 1962 as El Adobe, this bustling spot was later renamed to honor a nephew sent to fight in Vietnam. Still family-run, the restaurant features murals reminiscent of small pueblas and a drive-thru for convenience. A regular stop for the local college crowd and Fortune 500 businessmen from neighboring Brea, signature recipes like the fresh salsa casera and chorizo, are kept in the family. The popular breakfast burrito, packed with eggs, potatoes, cheese, bacon, beans and salsa, is served all day.
