Breakfast Burrito
Egg, chorizo or bacon, beans, cheese, hash, salsa, hand-pressed flour tortilla. Big enough for two — or one with appetite.
A bodega, deli, and taqueria on N Figueroa Street, Highland Park. Hot breakfast from six in the morning, lunch through the afternoon, and dinner until nine-thirty — every single day of the week.
La Perlita has been on N Figueroa Street in Highland Park for years. Half bodega, half deli, half taqueria — the kind of corner shop the neighborhood depends on for coffee at six, breakfast burritos at seven, lunch sandwiches at noon, and dinner tacos at eight.
Open every single day from six in the morning until nine-thirty at night. The breakfast burrito is the signature — egg, chorizo or bacon, beans, cheese, salsa, all wrapped in a hand-pressed flour tortilla.
Cash and card welcome. Sit at the counter, grab a table, or take it to go. The morning regulars know each other by name.
"La Perlita has been my breakfast burrito spot since I moved to Highland Park. The chorizo and egg is honest, the prices are honest, and the staff knows my order. Every single morning at 7:15."
"Walked in for a Cuban on a Tuesday and was eating the cleanest pressed sandwich in LA twelve minutes later. The prices are real shop prices. The neighborhood is lucky."
"Bring my two boys here every Saturday morning before soccer. Three breakfast burritos, three coffees, two waters — thirty bucks. They know us."
On N Figueroa between Avenue 66 and Avenue 67. Walk in, grab a coffee, order a breakfast burrito, sit down or take it to go. The morning crowd is the family.
