Still the best burrito I’ve ever had (solely due to the homemade tortilla)

wow. As someone who is made up of 90% tacos and burritos, this place is amazing. This is the freshest, non-oily/greasy, quality burrito I’ve ever had. You can literally see them making the tortillas on the side as you order.

No or limited seating based on when I walked in in the morning but perfect grab and go.

Thirty two dollars for a burrito and a bowl of food. The menu states guacamole is included but I was charged for it twice. Very disappointed. Felt rushed by the staff.

Food had very little flavor. Portions small and they give you almost no cheese. Service was rushed even though no line. Sauce was tasteless and too mild. Way too expensive for what it was too.

Best burritos ever. If you can, visit the Salinas location for a more authentic experience.

I knew at first bite the food was great. Tortillas were great and ingredients were fresh. Can’t wait to come back.

One of the best burritos I've ever had. The tortilla is on the thinner side, but the flavor of everything was absolutely delicious. The chips were nice, the salsa verde they gave us with them was also really good. Usually, I find most places make their green salsas too salty, but this was so flavorful. The hibiscus drink I got was just sweet enough, refreshing, and a great pairing with my meal.

Looks like a classier Chipotle... tastes like a much more authentic Chipotle.

What a great little place to come grab some lunch. The portions aren't too big and the prices are very affordable.

Love the accessibility of having this burrito chain here. Nice and quick, and most importantly easy to get to. My only complaint is I found a random pebble in my Chile Verde. I told the staff and that was the end of that. I still get my burritos here nonetheless.

It's not Salinas but I'll take it. Still smoked a blunt on the beach and enjoyed a burrito. Ordered a carne asada a huevo con chorizo and a huevo con tocino.

The food is always amazing. Smaller version of their main location, which is located in Salinas.
