Family run since 1975, this Mexican cafe is popular for its handmade tortillas and traditional Sunday menudo meal; fresh tamales shipped nationwide.
Food is good but the place was dirty. I had to clean my own table.
Staff was friendly and gave me the hook up on extra cheese lol. Really like the carne asada. Gotta try their barbacoa next time.
I would have given it a 5 star for the food, because the Menudo is to die for, the Carnitas are amazing..The George Lopez burrito is as big as your face and soaked in red or green sauce. The breakfast…
My worker brought in some take out from here and I fell in love with the costillas(ribs) and hand made flour tortillas...!! I wanted to go visit today but it closes early!! ;(
Coming here since birth ( I kid you not) 1970. And my parents before that! I love everything here except how pushy ppl get when the Christmas tamale orders come up. Kinda sad that they dont serve…
$3 Dollars for a dozen flower or corn tortillas. The flower is the best, but my mom loves the corn. I usually come to this place for breakfast things such as: the tortillas, menudo and if you want a…
The food is great they have a huge Burrito they call the George Lopez special I guess he went to the same high school as the owner so I tried it loved itstill cant touch Salsa and Beer!!!
Carrillos has good quallity well priced Mexican food. They have good tacos and Tamales, and really good rice and beans. Solid all around Mexican resturant. The best I've had in San Fernando.
Been going here with my grandma 15+ years ago. Haven't been back lately so I decided to give it a go. Had 2 asada tacos and the George Lopez special with carnitas. Everything was as I remember it.…
This place is dope, I have been to this place a few time for lunch and dinner. This was the first time Iv hit it up for breakfast i had the corizo n egg buritto mann was it filling and the red hot…
My Fiance's cousin brought us here for an early dinner since the place closes early (6pm). When we arrived, there weren't many people seated. The kitchen looked really spacious in the back (I guess…
Carrillo's is a hole in the wall you will love, the portions are monstrous, I like their chili relleno burrito, wet. This is a popular Mexican semi-fast food establishment, the salsa is hot and…
Last Sunday went to Carrillo's after church and ordered a Breakfast burrito, Bacon, egg, potatoes, beans and rice??? Next time no rice, it was good though. Also ordered some chicharon, I know its…
I ahve been coming here at least 35 plus years. Place does not change, always good food, pork tamales, carnitas burritos and even the menudo is good. i think they only sell the menudo on wknds. great…
I love the burritos from there, they are huge!!!!Plus the food is fresh.
I've never been to a Tortilleria, but after my experience here I could definitely get used to burritos made...
I’ve never been to a Tortilleria, but after my experience here I could definitely get used to burritos made with fresh tortillas. It may not look like much from the outside and it’s not even located in one of the many nearby strip malls, but Carrillo’s is a must try. You can either sit down for some tamales, enchiladas or one of the breakfast dishes (served all day) or order fresh tortillas...
The carnitas, chicharones, and flautas are the best! :) I love their mild salsa... not mild at all. I am a very picky eater, and I know good, authentic homemade Mexican food....and this place knows…
my family has been going here for probably close to 40 yrs, the best food, good service, can't think of anything bad I've ever eaten there.
Aside from my Abuelita's cooking, they have the best Carnitas, Tamales, Burritos and homemade torillas ever! George Lopez frequents the spot and they have a really great dish named after him. I grew…
This place is great for some amazing authentic Mexican food. Definitely go here for tamales, the beef and Cheese with green chile tamales are my favorite. They have pretty good combos that come with…
Love this place. The chips are awesome and the burritos are huge. Tastes pretty authentic to me. I like the hard shell tacos (well done) and the enchiladas - cheese for me. In a bad area, hard to…
The people that work there are rude, but the George Lopez special is the best....
For authentic Mexian Food this is the place. I could eat the large George Lopez Special wrapped with 2 tortillas. This plase is so good! They make great Carnitas and flour tortillas. Yum, yum! Get…
Tamales are terrific!
Food: 5Service: 4Ambiance: 3Setting: 3Decor: 2Overall Total: 17The best handmade Tamales you can get. Carillos is very busy during the holidays so if you want tamales you need to call in your order. They also have all the supplys you need to make them at home. Carillos also serves other Mexican dishes like chile verde, burittos, tacos etc...The chile verde is my favorite. This is a good place...
Very good tacos and burritos! Their corn and flour tortillas are homemade, great salsa. They have a huge menu, definitely have to go back to try more. Nondescript little place back in the…
Definitely not the place you want to dine in. This is a fast food joint with great food but poor customer service. My family goes every Sunday and orders carnitas and flour tortillas to go. The carnitas are cooked in lard, have just the right amount of salt, and I think they add an orange and maybe brown sugar when cooking cause there's just a little sweetness and stickyness to them... Not...
Best by far!! Awesome tortillas, great soups and best of all cheap. The long lunch lines speak for themselves.
Tasty homemade tortillas, corn and flour. Cheap, thick and made with love. Awesome soups and chilaquiles con chorizo. Good place for morning meetings, you beat the lunch crowd by a couple hours and…
My family and I have been buying tamales from Carillo's for the past 4 years! Its great for the holiday's We buy dozens of them for the holidays. They are so yummy and reasonably priced!!
There is an old Mexican woman sitting in the kitchen making tortillas and soup. Need I say more? This place is the BEST. If you have been here and were disappointed for some reason, give them another try. ...
The best Mexican Restaurant in San Fernando... Authentic mexican food...
The best Mexican Restaurant in San Fernando... Authentic mexican food, awesome service and pleasent atmosphere to eat!!! Feels like grandma's kitchen!!! Any whoot make sure you try the Menudo.... OMG!!!
love this place during the holidays!! when I can not make my own tamales I put in a special order ahead for Christmas Eve for theirs! And Saturday mornings are great to get there early for their fresh hot tortillas!!
Saw some other reviews about not really good place for sit down eating. If you are looking for great sit down style that is clean, friendly and original, try Las Casitas Del Mar...
Carillo's makes the best hand-made tortillas in town and they have the best carnitas. Put them both together and you get really good tacos. The service has gone down over the years, but the food makes up for...
My favorite Mexican Deli in the whole world! I always get their carne asada burritos & tacos. It's always fresh & always what I expect - great taste. It's a quaint little deli & the service is always good....
I used to work in San Fernando so I found this place a long time ago. You know it is good when the locals frequent the place. The tortilla's are to die for. Hand Made just can't be beat. I now have a co-worker...
Carrillo's has been around forever. If you're looking for authentic home-made Mexican food then this is the place to go. There are lots of items on the menu and at very reasonable prices. The staff is...
I have been going to this place once a week since 1999. My fav is the Pollo tostada: softly crisp homemade shell, all white meat chix, usually a little to much. Get the small (#5 I think) and dump an…
EAT THE TAMALES!!! I swear... I crave these all the time, and as a Mexican American, we get these as a treat every holiday season without fail. I've NEVER had better tamales in my life... and that says a lot coming from someone who grew up with the authentic flavor inbedded in my taste buds!
Sweet Tamales are really good but the the beef ones are very grissely. The customers service needs to improve, nobody is friendly at all.
Pros
+ Good sweet tamales
Cons
- bad customer service, very grissely meat
Read some of these post so my brother when and had breakfest or lunch, I had a tamale and taco and they were , let's say I had better, to dry and chewie. Was looking for a place to buy tamales for new years but this is not it.
Pros
+ good service and with a smile.
Cons
- won't drive that far for the food, had better.
I would recommend that if you are passing through the lovely city of San Fernando nthat you visit this small but wonderful place. It may not be the best for sitting there and eating, but the taste of the food will more then make up for the lack of accomadations. So when you stop by, make sure you order your burrito wet.
Pros
+ Great food
Cons
- Below average service
Well, I see how people beef the place about service and the attitude of people that work there, but that's not why you go here. You go there for just about the most authentic Mexican food you can find in a fast food setting. The toco shells are hand made and cooked to a slight crunch which makes the toco's unreal. The chicken is all white meat and very tender, the beef is better than average,...
home of the famous george lopez burrito. you can sometimes find yourself sitting next to famous comedians such as cheech marin and lopez himself
great food...nothing better! i can never get enough of it!
I order the carnitas and the tortillas which they are very good,my husband order menudo not the best i had a slime texture ,plus portions agains value not the best ,the ambience on san fernando location is c@!%!y and the service rude and not friendly at all.may go back for carnitas and tortillas to go.
So after reading the reviews here I set off for Carillo's and was looking forward to an amazing lunch. I ordered the George Lopez Special, and it was seriously huge. It was a good deal for your buck and it was ok, but there was nothing particularly special about it. The tortilla was alright, but other than that I might has well have ordered an extra large Taco Bell Burrito. I got the Carne...
I moved from So. Cal earlier this year and this was the place for my last meal which went on the road with me. When I return, the first place my rental car will stop will be at Carrillo's for a Supreme Burrito. The decor is far from flashy but the eats are incredible and the staff is always friendly.
I love that everything is authentic and has a excellent service and food, I highly refer you to try the tortillas and tamales.
Family run since 1975, this Mexican cafe is popular for its handmade tortillas and traditional Sunday menudo meal; fresh tamales shipped nationwide.
WOW!!! The food was fantastic. The fresh/homemade taste of the tortillas and tamales is outstanding. The Burritos are big but trust me, you'll will finish it. The people are friendly. It is a little whole in the wall but you have to admit, "sometimes they're better than big stuffy restaurants. This place is fast, great tasing and reasonable prices.
Pros
+ fast, tasty, price
Cons
-...
This is the absolute best place to go for tortillas, tamales and carnitas. The people are nice and friendly. We have been going since I was small and I still can't get enough. Try it once and you'll be hooked!!
Carrillo's fresh handmade tortillas and tender carnitas is truly the BEST in the Valley. I don't know if it was the hot salsa or just the moist, delicious taste that got me all teared up. Honest people! Eat this food!!!
Pros
+ Very Reasonable, Take Out, Outstanding!
We have been going to Carillo's for many years, both San Fernando as well as Canoga Park locations. One of the few places that still make their tortillas completely by hand - NO presses for the dough to flatten it out - all hand made. The toasty/corn taste is worth the wait - we suggest you stop in and pick up some FRESH tortillas as well as prepared carnitas for a treat. Nice people too.
...
This is the best place for menudo, homemade tortillas, tamales and burritos. I've been coming here since I was a kid and I can't get enough. You have to try the Jorge Lopez special it's huge!! Al Gore visited when he was in town.
