Great food. Very clean. I took the Gold Line from South Pasadena. 22 minutes, then a ten minute walk. Well worth it. Special Burrito a must! Great Tacos too!

Al & Bea's is the BEST! There is no other place around that is as good as Al & Beas it has that special taste. Delicious! I'm glad I work about a mile away from this restaurant so I get to eat there all the time. :)

I've been returning for over 30 years. I grew up eating at al and beas. I allways make it a point to pass by when im in town. The food is great and I allways run into someone i grew up with. This place has more regulars than any place I know.i've allso introduced some of my new freinds to the place and they turn into regulars.

This is a one of the only places I brag about! I grew up on Al & Beas Taquitos and combination Burritos! I live about 30 miles from East LA, but it's worth the drive! It's hard to find food tastes like your nana cooked it, and this about the closest I've found!
