    Environment, prices and service were phenomenal. Neighborhood vibes, lots of local characters, and wood paneling. I really miss places like this from the South Bay and other So Cal neighborhoods and it is refreshing to know that they still exist. All that said -- the huevos rancheros were just okay. Did I order the wrong thing? Did I come on a bad day?

    ¡Dios mío! ¡Este lugar es increíble! Llevo 10 años viniendo a este lugar y la comida nunca decepciona. Los frijoles son deliciosos y el arroz da en el clavo. Me encanta pedir el desayuno aquí. Tan nostálgico. Una de las mejores ubicaciones para mamá y papá en Los Ángeles con diferencia. Un diamante escondido en bruto. Recomiendo encarecidamente venir aquí a desayunar si buscas una comida deliciosa y abundante. El personal y el dueño son santos. Les encanta interactuar con los huéspedes y son muy amables y amables. El ambiente es muy tradicional. Me gusta mucho. Por suerte, el dueño conoce muy bien a mi familia, por lo que cada visita es un placer. Los huevos, los frijoles y el arroz son una buena combinación. Me gustan las auténticas combinaciones de especias en los frijoles y el arroz. Siempre disfruto venir aquí para el desayuno. Uno de los mejores restaurantes familiares de Los Ángeles. ¡Este restaurante merece al menos 10 estrellas! Misma reseña para hispanohablantes.

    OG Mom and Pop Mexican restaurant opened in the early 60s. Been coming here since 2006 and it's always delicious. Hands down the best Chile Relleno in LA. The Chile Verde is rich in flavor and savory goodness, so tender and looking like it just fell off the bone. La Abeja is an institution that exemplifies the family spirit of LA. I feel like you had to have spent your childhood here to really understand. Humble, not fancy, old school I selfishly want it to never leave even though the owner says he'd like to retire at some point.

    Food is just wholesome! Delicious and authentic and I keep coming back for more! Shredded beef tacos, chile rellenos, machaca, menudo and albóndigas are all so delicious! I'm going down the menu to try everything! Friendly service! Family owned! Doesn't get any more delicious! Plain and simple!

    This review is solely for the chile relleno burrito because it's the only thing I have tried here and will likely ever try because it is their most bestest creation. A burrito with a chile relleno in it, what more can you want?? Their beans are really good (#2 beans in NELA behind Chicos), and their chile is cooked well and the cheese is melted and delicious. It's the perfect vehicle for eating chile rellenos on the go. Are there other things here I should probably try? Absolutely. Will I as long as the chile relleno burrito exists? Probably not.
