Kenney's outgoing personality and the restaurant's decor is what makes this place special. Photos of customers cover nearly every square inch of the walls. The breakfast burrito had a good flavor, particularly the sausage inside. The hot sauce was unique and pretty spicy. I wish the burrito has more varying texture though. I would try the one with steak next time.

Some of the best breakfast burritos under the sun! Kenny's is the embodiment of a hole-in-the-wall spot. It's a small place with an unassuming exterior. The inside is super well-loved with photos of customers littering every single surface of the walls- even the ceiling! The man behind the counter was such a joy to interact with. Kenny is extremely friendly, welcoming, and is spreading all the happy vibes. We ordered a hefty number of 5 burritos and he kept reminding us throughout our visit how happy he was making each and every one. There's so much love in this place! Onto the actual burritos, we got the Steak Breakfast Burritos (#2) and the De la Cruz Burritos (#3). So much goodness packed into these tortillas and the portion sizes were huge! My favorite part was actually the sauce that he includes. It's a hot sauce vaguely resembling Tapatío including jalapeños and a ton of green onions. I'm fully convinced that there are also some Asian flavors in there, since it reminded me a bit of kimchi. I don't know exactly what goes in there, but it was insane! The absolute best pairing. Please stop by if you're ever in the area and are looking for some scrumptious breakfast eats! You'll be supporting an amazing small business and the most cheerful person behind in. Note: Kenny loves taking pictures with his customers! He grabbed a shot with us and immediately uploaded it on Instagram- he noted that he does this with most customers. Just something worth noting if that's not particularly your jam.

I'm so glad to have stumbled upon this hole in the wall! The whole atmosphere is unforgettable with all the photos on the walls and the food is soo yummy! I've tried the bulgogi breakfast burrito and it had a good ratio of potato's to meat 5/5. It definitely fills you up and is packed with flavor. The hot sauce is unique and tastes like chamoy almost, but has a good kick to it. The dela cruz burrito is soo yummy too 5/5, it's filled with meat that's so flavorful. I really enjoyed this one and it had some great spices. We've also had the Dutch crunch Philly cheesesteak and it was soo delicious 5/5. The cheese melt and pull is amazing! Topped with their hot sauce is chefs kiss. Everything here is made with love and it's so nice to meet the owner Kenny! I will definitely be back and would recommend this mom and pop shop to everyone :)

Amazing spirit ! The place is filled with energy and he makes it a point to take a picture with all his customers . Great place to start your day W his delicious food.

Definitely what you would consider a "hole in the wall". The super cozy and casual interior is different from your typical aesthetic brunch place with mimosas that are Instagram-worthy. Once you enter, you will see his pictures of all his customers. It's a great casual place to dine in or take out. Call in if you are short on time because it's run by one person which is incredible. I ordered the Kenny's Breakfast Bowl, and I would say it's very worth it. Inside the bowl, it had potatoes, bacon, egg, cheese, and sausages. The portions are huge, and you definitely get what you pay for. The service was great! He's very enthusiastic and spent a bit of time getting to know the customer. Might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I enjoyed my conversation with him.

Such an interesting spot! Ordered to-go and Kenny himself took our order. Restaurant was very eclectic with pictures of all the guests who have visited. Kenny is a personable guy and it's clear he has passion for his restaurant. He did take a picture of us and immediately uploaded it to his social media so if you don't want him to you may have to specify! All in all, the breakfast burrito hit the spot! Hearty, savory, a hint sweet and paired perfectly with his home made spicy sauce! A definite comeback for both quality of food and friendly service.

A hole in the wall, but what a Gem! Kenny has a genuine approach for his business. He is friendly and easy to talk to. The food well it was delicious ! We ordered #1 & #5 both so different from each other but with outstanding flavor. Oh and the side of Salsa, amazing with a great kick of heat. As it is his tradition.... He took my photo and posted it right away on his instagram. What an experience. While you wait take the time to admire all the photos on his walls and ceiling and don't forget to read the magazine article about his life.

We came on a Monday around 11am. One person was already waiting for their food, and Kenny was cooking in the back. Once Kenny brought the food out he saw us and took our order. It took about 10min for our two burritos, which is pretty quick since he's the only one working! Plus, you can keep yourself entertained looking at his wall to ceiling photos of all his customers. We got #1 and #2. The burritos had a nice char and were very hearty! We could only eat half of the burrito and saved the rest for later. The salsa was chunky and slightly spicy, it was very good too. As many others have mentioned, the owner is very friendly and seemed genuinely happy every time a customer came in. He took a photo of every customer too, and told us he had something like 25,000 photos! Overall, I would come back for these breakfast burritos again! I would say don't come with a huge group, since it really is only this one man working, and there's isn't too much parking around.

Kenny's is that gem of a hole in the wall that is literally a one man show for guilty-pleasure comfy breakfast & lunch offerings. It's an unusual operation, having just Kenny Kim running the whole show, but I'm honestly all about it.. He's one of the most genuine and enthusiastic souls I've had the pleasure of meeting. Think greasy chonky breakfast burritoes with aromatic greasiness and you get the gist. Absolutely perfect for that lazy day. :D The menu seems to change every now and then, but the gist of it hasn't really changed in that there's numbered offerings covering breakfast burritoes, some pancake/waffles, a philly cheesesteak and burgers. Steak options can be ordered bulgogi style upon request. Having checked it out for a return takeout visit, it varies from "not too busy" to "40 min wait" depending on how many orders are queued up, so I emphasize having patience and coming along when you don't have a rigid schedule. There's a smattering of seating inside with decor that is simultaneously cute and patriotic. Breakfast Burrito Steak - 5/5 Flipping homerun. It sloops from how heavy the sucker is packed and I love it all the more for it. Great crisping on potatoes if you eat it on-site before it softens, creamy as heck with all that cheese, fantastic smokey jalapeno salsa (unfortunately moderately spicy for the less inclined), and just a touch of pancake batter. Just a little bit of a sweet aroma really helps cap off the medley of flavors. Ain't no holding back on the grease, but it works beautifully. I know not where this inspiration comes from, but Kenny is a humble yet mad genius. Philly Cheesesteak - 5/5 Cheesisest cheesesteak I ever did have, not to mention adding a bit of crunchy texture and toasted aroma with the dutch crunch is a nice combination I didn't know I even wanted. The onion rings were perhaps a bit too solidly fried to the point of overly crunchy, but still well done on the onion. That said generally hits all the notes quite well without hitting dry notes.

Kenny's Cafe is a well-known hole-in-the-wall spot that serves up some truly impressive (and HUGE) breakfast and lunch options. After checking out other Yelp reviews, we saw that the bulgogi and cheesesteaks are fan favorites, and it's easy to see why! We decided to share their breakfast burrito, and it did not disappoint! Packed with eggs, cheese, breakfast meats, and hash browns, it was a hearty and satisfying meal. But what really makes Kenny's Cafe special is the owner, Kenny himself. He has a way of making you feel like family, treating us like long-time friends from the moment we walked in. It's places like these, with their warm, personal touch, that are becoming harder to find. Supporting small businesses like Kenny's Cafe is a pleasure, and we can't wait to return!
