cheap burritos

This restaurant is a solid Mexican restaurant along University. Even though it’s a place where you order up front, they have a good variety of Mexican food. They have burritos, quesadillas, enchiladas, fish burritos, and so on. The best positive about this place is that it is pretty cheap. It’s like 4.90 for a burrito, if you decide you don’t want guacomole, sour cream and cheese. Even with those, it is still like 6 dollars. As for the atmosphere, it was a pretty nice place with some murals and large windows for everyone to look out of.

The chips they provides you are OK, though a coupld of them were kinda hard. As for the food, I ordered the Al Pastor burrito. It had a specialty pork loin allegedly, so I figured it was the thing to try. It was very good, though there was a little bit too much rice. It didn’t detract much though, since the salsa I put on complemented it, along with the refried beans I chose to have with my burrito. I’d come back here again to try all the other stuff on the menu. It’s more of 3.5 stars, but I guess I will round it up since it’s pretty cheap and their menu warrants going back again.
