September 22, 2024La Favorita is a hidden gem on E Grand Ave! 🌟 This Latino-owned grocery store and Mexican restaurant offers unbeatable quesabirrias on weekends - truly a must-try! I enjoyed carne asada tacos with creamy beans and fluffy rice; each bite was bursting with authentic flavors.
The friendly staff makes you feel right at home, and the vibrant atmosphere is perfect for a quick bite or takeout. Just a heads-up: it can get crowded, so consider calling ahead! With great produce and a commitment to community, La Favorita quickly became my go-to spot! Can't wait to return for more... 🌮✨
