The food was the real star of the show and served quickly. We started with the nachos, which were piled high with fresh toppings and melted cheese. The beef enchiladas were smothered in a rich, flavorful sauce, and the tacos were packed with perfectly seasoned meat and fresh vegetables.

Overall, Burrito Parrilla Mexicana offers a fantastic dining experience. The food is delicious, the service is excellent, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. I recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Mexican cuisine and selection diversity.“

Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap spaces in front easy to use.“

“Love the food here! But, not great customer Service. The service was pretty fast… But they did not have any cheeseburgers as it said on their menu for the kids meal. I also did not have any chicken nuggets from the kids meal, They also had no Lengua tacos and only enough steak to make three tacos. And I would also recommend updating your website to include that you no longer serve alcohol“

Perfect place to bring friends and family. Their location is very accessible. Taco & Burrito Express have never disappointed me. Thank you for awesome service!“

“When I arrived I had encountered quite the environment, firstly I really needed to piss so I entered the bathroom only to see a severed head in one of the urinals. Honestly I wasn't too focused on it as I REALLY needed to pee. I was seated near a cracked window but frankly, it just added to the atmosphere you know? My waitress Amanda was really sweet to me, nice woman... until I saw her go off on an family that was eating there... had a weird grudge against the grandma. I got my jamón al vapor quite quickly and the taste is even better. Now I am not one to nitpick, but when I requested I get one of those tiny umbrellas for my water what I got in return was a tiny skateboard instead, not ideal but I made it work. Overall would recommend, just stay out of the 2nd stall in the male restroom... that's my stall.“

“The salsa is definitely authentic, fresh, and delicious! I love how they have photos of the plates on the menu. Really enjoyed the steak tampiquenia, chille rejanos, fajitas, and tacos. They have a full menu with plenty of options. The service and food were super duper! ?“
