There should be an option for 0 stars... that's how bad it was. Should have known when we walked in and there wasn't any sign of life. Let's start with the California burrito.... Soggy fries, hard tortilla, NO GUACAMOLE, cheese was not melted, and the meat had terrible flavor. Their "salsa" was just marinara sauce. They don't even have a bathroom yet their food makes you have to immediately go to the bathroom. Save your tummy and save your money.

Very disappointed with this meal. 3 rolled tacos / enchilada plate. Almost $17. (What a joke) if you're going to charge that much the food better be right. I'm sorry to say this was the worst enchilada I've ever had and the rolled were to big and dry as sawdust! Gross I was hungry but struggled to eat 2 1/2 rolled tacos and a couple bites of the nasty enchilada. Couldn't even come close to completing the meal. I had to stop by 7-11 and grab a protein bar.

In honesty, the food was just ok. I throughly enjoyed the burrito but the nachos had just a thin layer of the nasty nacho cheese, instead of any real cheese. The carne asada fries and almost no cheese, with just a little bit of guacamole and crema on the side. But the pricing wasn't toooo bad but still a little expensive for the quality. Still, cashiers were very nice and vibe was good, all the workers seemed to be incredibly kind to customers.

I really do love the food here. The burritos are meaty. But, do not miss the chicken soup. It is loaded with chicken. Flavored with fresh guacamole, cilantro and onions. It really is fantastic.

Been coming to Pavlo's (formerly Rico's) for over two decades. Hands down best burritos in Southern California.

- Pavlos - formerly Rico's, same owner. Always good , fresh and reasonable. Owner operated daily. The most famous people who live local eat at Pavlos ! Kids friendly.

Hate to give small businesses a bad review but hopefully they will improve. Ordered the Carne Asada burrito. It had lettuce that was wet, the meat was spurs, and the guacamole was a mixture of guacamole/sour cream and salsa. Ordered a drink and the total was $16.58. They don't have a salsa bar anymore and they give you 2 cheap napkins. I realize prices for the owner have gone up with labor etc but the quality shouldn't suffer. The service was good but won't be going back.

Pavlo's enchiladas are the best! Some places have the weird sweet red sauce, however here they are the classic enchiladas. Paired with a side of rice and the yummy beans with melted cheese on top and I am stuffed. My son loves the Justin burrito and eats it several times per week. The kids that work the counter are sweet and Pavlos always greets me with a big smile. Order was ready in 5 minutes today!
I ordered the California Burrito. It was less than stellar, bad really. Both the French Fries and Meat were cold and the Meat was very tough. The Salsa Bar was a bunch of bottles of sauce. Nothing homemade. Even the Salsa in the little Squeeze Bottle tasted ketchup-y and canned. At $12.75 I went ahead and ate the Burrito and that was a huge mistake. I was about 40 minutes away from my Office and before I could make the drive back my stomach was rumbling and grinding. I had terrible pain. To make a long story short I flushed the burrito down the toilet, that thing ran thru me like a locomotive. I will not be going back to Pavlos.......

Excellent beef tacos. The meat is nicely seasoned. All tacos are pretty-well stuffed with ingredients. Good good - we have eaten there several times It's very very casual. I see lots of "To Go" orders going out the door They have a good selection of salsas to choose from.

Been coming here since high school (15+ years now). Even though the name got an update, the food is just as good as always. I’ve been getting the Justin burrito every time and it never disappoints. Plus, the people there are awesome (especially Pavlos himself ??)
