Came here after lunch empty. Food was so disappointing. Lame burrito. Salsas felt basic. Meat tasted drenched in oil, tables barely cleaned. Probably won’t come again.

Forget the other reviews this place is amazing. I’ve never found a place like this that’s super consistent and delicious. Other places I’ve been to are only one of those. This place has the best burritos ever I highly recommend the cali surfin burrito it’s by far the best one.

I stopped in for takeout and got the hash brown breakfast burrito. They were good and I would definitely return. Reasonably priced and a big menu. Place was clean and service was great.

The Burrito Factory is tucked into a small strip mall off Scripps Parkway. The staff was welcoming, and our order was prepared quickly.
They offer a large menu of Mexican-style dishes and serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Compared to other places we've tried, their prices are generally lower. Our meal was two bowls, a bag of chips, and two bottled waters and the total came to $40.
We ordered one chicken bowl and one carne asada bowl. At first glance, the portion size looked generous. However, once we started eating, we realized that about two-thirds of each bowl was filled with shredded lettuce. There was an abundance of rice, but the servings of beans, meat, and cheese were minimal. The bowls resembled salads more than the hearty, well-balanced meals we expected. While the quantity was disappointing, the flavors were bold and enjoyable. The chicken and carne asada were both well-seasoned, and the chipotle drizzle added a nice touch of flavor without overwhelming spice.
While we didn’t feel the bowls were a great value, we’re open to returning and trying other items from their expansive menu if we're in the area again.

Absolutely loved this place! Everything from the starters to dessert was on point. You can tell they use fresh ingredients. Staff was attentive without being pushy. 10/10 experience.

I went yesterday Saturday the 24th of May. I waited for a few customers to finish and order then when I got up to the counter to order The cashier told me that they're not taking cash. She had already cashed out the register and she would not take my order. I waited all that time for nothing That's poor customer service I won't be going back there again

My favorite Mexican restaurant. I love their rolled tacos and get them with everything including lettuce, and I also get a carne asada street taco. They have the best pickled carrots. Just ask for a plastic bag to put them in.

Horrible experience. Kindly asked the gentlemen that was there as cashier for a restroom in order to wash my hands and he rudely & with attitude said "We don't have a bathroom here!" Food was just not as expected and after the experience it just ruined my first time at this place, making it the last one as well. I'm sorry but I definitely can not & will not recommend this place to friends & fam.
Small Mexican restaurant in a neighborhood plaza. There's not many restaurants in the area to compete with it. It used to be El Patron.
The portions were large and they had daily specials. I had the bean tostada, chicken taco, and rolled taco special. It came out covered with cheese and everything was deep fried. Lol! Nice and crunchy.
The little salsa bar was nice with pickled onions, limes, hot carrots, and a handful of different salsas.
We came in for dinner on a late weekday and it was pretty dead. Only 1-2 other tables with customers.
