Description:
Semi large size. Burrito was mainly just rice beans and meat, with a little bit of crema and some sporadic onions and cilantro. Given the lack of ingredients, it still had very nice flavor. I think the meat had a lot of juice and oil that got in with it which was very good, and quite limey. Overall surprisingly good considering it was so much rice.

  • Crema: 4

Description:
Burrito was on the smaller side. It was heavily rice with almost no beans or other ingredients besides the meat. Some bites of the asada were very good, others were just ok. The big redeeming factor was that a few bites with more crema had great flavor. Even though it was basically a rice and meat burrito, it was still decent.

  • Guacamole: Yes - 4
  • Crema: 4

  • Size: 7
  • Taste: 6
Description:
Pretty large burrito with overall decent flavor. Highlights of it were the beans which were very good and salsa. While the flavor was nice, it was far too salty. The asada had the flavor, but was lacking on char and was a bit more like shredded beef. The guac was watery as was the crema and there was not enough of them. The pico was very nice and the rice was just fine. Given the pitfalls, I was pleasantly surprised on first bite. There was also a good amount of shredded cheese inside.

Other Notes:

Salsa bar.
