A life changing burrito. Will never think about burritos the same! Takeout restaurant, and a bit of a premium experience, but man it’s solid. The char on the tortilla is beautiful. The guac has a perfect kick. The salsa makes you wanna tango. It’s where it’s at. Note- just get the big thing of guac on the side. It’s the most impressive guac I have ever had. High praise for a girl who loves avocado toast and all forms of the vegetable. Anyway: carne asada was bussin’ but I’m sure their other stuff is super great too. Don’t need extra protein or extra salsa inside or anything - because you order the guac on the side. Very crucial. Tortilla chips (totopos) were kinda whatever lol. But would come back to order their guac and then would just buy chips from whole foods around the block. Let this burrito rock your world. Takeout only, and super crowded to wait inside. Would rec ordering advance with like uber eats pickup. God bless this joint it was fantastic — for those who know Sam Francisco, this is La Taqueria level.

Finally, a burrito that doesn’t give you a food coma while still tasting delicious. The chicken and steak options were juicy and tender. The green sauce in the burrito is absolutely perfect. The hot sauce is outside the norm and not your typical green or red salsa. Refreshing to taste Mexican food done differently. Can’t wait to go back and try the other options.

I think they have the best burritos in New York! Every time I eat here the food is delicious. I’m a picky eater and when I fall in love with a spot I keep coming back.

Although I love Mexican food, I’ve always found burritos (apart from the breakfast variety) a bit too filling for me. So this place was such a great discovery - where they dispense with the rice for a slimmed down and in my opinion, much tastier burrito. Excellent take out option for a nice day out.

Love this place, been going here for awhile but great news!!! they just opened a second location on 26 Carmine Street, Carmine and Bleeker area to be exact. Burritos are on point, super filling and deliciously flavorful, If your in the neighborhood stop by and get some you won't be disappointed.

This is the best burrito I’ve had in NYC. It’s a chewy tortilla stuffed with meat / cheese / rice / beans and a bit of spice then grilled shut to hold its shape. It’s a perfect meal and reminded me of some of the great burritos I’ve had on the west coast

I got the pollo asado burrito and it was around 15.50 with tax. It was pretty damn good, I would definitely go back. This is a grab and go place, no seating inside. I wish the guac was more spread out but overall very good.

Went there with a friends multiple times, have had their beef and chicken burrito. Everyone that raves about this place has a reason to. Every single time I have come here they hit it over the park with the flavors coming through. The protein of choice is season, marinated, grilled to perfection, the rational cheese and guacamole is just right and of course the tortilla is an absolute dream that hold everything together to give you the perfect bite every time. Hands down one of the best restaurants in NYC and will be back soon.
