Friendly Owner, Okay Veggie Burrito
My experience at this restaurant was marked by a really friendly owner. I tried the veggie burrito for $12, and it was just okay. While it was a good size, it wasn't the tastiest, and I wish there was cheese in it.

Great Burrito, Basic Experience
You get what you pay for. The burrito was massive and super cheap, but there were no chips or place to sit included. For $10, I’d do it again.
The dude serving was chill. Overall, a good value for the price, especially considering the burrito size.

Affordable Mexican with Friendly Owner
My experience at this restaurant was marked by a very friendly owner. While the food quality was mediocre, it was certainly affordable. It's not 3-star food, but the service was great.
I was surprised to see them use a microwave to heat the tortilla instead of a press, which resulted in a slightly gooey bite. Although there are better burritos available, they cost about $5 more. Therefore, this is the most affordable option with the most pleasant owner.

Excellent Wet Burrito Recommendation!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially thanks to the owner's recommendation. When I asked about the specialty, he immediately suggested the wet burrito. It was truly excellent, and the sauce was particularly noteworthy.
I highly recommend getting the wet burrito; you won't be disappointed! It's also worth mentioning that it's huge!

Loaded Mole Burrito & Great Service!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I ordered the mole burrito, and the plate was incredibly loaded, coming with the burrito, rice, and beans on the side. I even had leftovers for the next day.
The person running the place was awesome, pairing his smile with some jokes. I'll definitely be coming back when I return!

Amazing Staff and Yummy Food!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The service was truly exceptional, going above and beyond with more than just a smile. The staff were amazing, and the food was really yummy.
I was also pleased to find great vegetarian options available. The atmosphere was rated a 5, and the noise level was quiet, making it easy to talk. The wait time was also short, up to 10 minutes, and the outdoor patio seating was a nice touch.

Huge portions, but freshness concerns

Best Vegetarian Burrito Near Pike Place!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! Leo, the staff member, was super friendly and prepared the best and biggest vegetarian burrito I've ever had, packed with loads of avocado. It's the best Mexican food I've found near Pike Place!
