Twice I have spend my money on gallo pinto and the rice is awful. Firs time no flavor at all. Second time tasted old and bad. I usually get it for our reunions with family and friends and the last two times I had to say sorry to my people. Its not cheap to be embarrence. I hope I get a respond before calling health department to check them out. I been going there since. El mudo. Owner. Gerardo. Over 40 years. But for some reason its not to his stander’s. Its about money only.

This review is for the restaurant. Who would’ve thought this market I pass by on a daily basis would have good food. They sell Mexican food everyday and Nicaraguan food on the weekends. However the cocina closes at 4:30.

Since the pandemic I been coming here to get my meats, great service at the Carniceria and the meats have always been great. Recently I tried their ready to cook Pupusas! I can’t believe I waited this long to get them, they are soo good. We grabbed a few bags of them they come in 6 packs and they have Revuelta and Queso. They are a complete hit at my home. Definitely will continue to buy. Also they got a good size vegetable sections and it always look very fresh.

Went to get marinated taco meat, both chicken and asada were fresh. The workers were nice and respectful, found a new spot for meat.

Pay attention everyone. El Gallito is a Mexican and Nicaraguan establishment located in El Monte. I was coming back from Riverside to Alhambra, and I remember I visited this place a while ago. I have the taste for Nicaraguan food. I went there and wait patiently in line for service. One guy did not great me and said, what can I get you? just nod me in signal that he was ready to help me. I asked for several Nicaraguan plates and he told me we dont have them ready. I just want Gallo Pinto, Tajadas y Queso. Since I love fried Queso, I asked him to give me a second piece. He nicely put me order in a piece of paper, asked me to review to see if he got it right. I nod him back in response of acceptance.

This place is located in my neighborhood, I visited regularly, the staff in the kitchen always nice, the food is good, everything is ok with the kitchen, the rudest come from other area, that’s why I can’t give 5 stars.
