Plenty of vegan options (with more to come), incredibly tasty burritos, and the most personable and friendly owner/staff. The prices are also some of the best I've found in the city. I'll be back!

I’ve been a diehard fan of Papalote ever since I was put onto their jarred salsa in 2015. It’s been the go-to for our family ever since.

I could go on about how their meat was amazing, the service was friendly, or the efficiency of their staff, but personally, I think the single most important ingredient of a good burrito is the salsa.

We got the breakfast burrito (huevos a la mexicana with pinto beans and cheese) and the achiote tofu burrito (with refried black beans and cheese). Both burritos were delicious! The achiote marinated grilled tofu was really flavorful, as were the huevos. And the house roasted tomato salsa is everything everyone says it is. We got a pint to go. The cashier was very friendly. Fast service, too!
We'll definitely be back for the vegan mole.
