  1. Tacos Villa Corona

    Atwater VillageBreakfast burritos$

    A tiny Atwater Village counter whose potato-and-chorizo breakfast burrito made Anthony Bourdain a fan. The family still runs it after matriarch Maria Flores, and it opens at 6 and closes at 3 or when the food runs out. There's a second shop in Eagle Rock.

  2. Corner Cottage

    BurbankBreakfast burritos$

    A no-frills Burbank takeout spot with weekend lines for its breakfast burrito, where the fillings are chopped and mixed on the griddle so every bite has some of everything.

  3. Cofax Coffee

    FairfaxCoffee & breakfast burritos$

    A Fairfax Avenue coffee bar with a cult breakfast burrito: choose classic bacon, a hot-link version, or Impossible chorizo, with smoked potatoes in every one. A second Cofax is in Culver City.

  4. Lucky Boy

    PasadenaBurger & burrito stand$

    A Pasadena burger stand since 1961, famous for an enormous breakfast burrito sold from opening to closing, long after the rest of the morning menu ends at 10:30. Bring an appetite or a friend.

  5. Chori-Man

    San PedroChorizo shop$

    Ignacio Ochoa's San Pedro chorizo shop, which introduced LA to green chorizo in the Toluca style and folds it into one of the city's most distinctive breakfast burritos. Buy a pound to take home.
