    This is my favorite of the express burrito restaurants.  The burritos are large and have ingredients (i.e. lamb) that you would never find at the chain burrito restaurants.  All burritos also come with chips and salsa, and their salsa bar also has a pleasant variety.  In addition, their prices are lower than competing chains and they have frequent beer specials.

    This place is legit. I have read some of the other reviews on here discussing bad experiences (I have only been going for a little less than a year so maybe changes have been made). I have never had any bad experiences and the food has always been good, not to mention daily special deals such as $2.99 64oz dos equis pitchers on Sat and Sun. It's not expensive nor fancy. Expect decent California/Mexican street food.

    NO NO NO. I've been there twice, one of those times  I almost died from food poisoning. It's a weird concept and dynamic in that restaurant. They've got a table that's supposed to be a steam table everything is pre cooked and sitting in tepid water.So if you get a burrito with unseasoned boiled meat or some type of canned vegetables all of it's too soggy. It's kind of expensive. The food is so bad it's funny. These poor people if they don't know better somebody needs to teach them. It's not going to be me I hope they close down. I would say it is in the top five of the all time worst restaurant experiences in my life

    Went there with my Dad, wasn't all that, did not enjoy it at all. Burrito was so huge and ingredients were poorly prepared, neither of us enjoyed it at all, and haven't been back since.

    I ate here for the first time yesterday while in the area. The burrito I got was pretty tasty and ingredients were fresh. Chips seem to be served with all meals and there is a good salsa bar for them. Several vegetarian options. Prices were pretty good - about on par with Chipotle. If I'm in the area again, I'd definitely eat here again.
