Editorial Review for El Burrito Express – by Alex von Krogh

In Short
A loyal following keeps this tiny Mexican takeout joint thriving. A total of seven stools and a small counter offer the option of a sit-down meal. The burritos--mini-mountains of ingredients that venture into knife-and-fork territory--are the signature offering. Diners get a choice of flavorfully stewed beef, chicken or pork accompanied by the usual fixings of rice and beans. Generous helpings of mild sauce, queso and pico de gallo give things a juicy consistency and wonderful guacamole--fresh-crushed avocado, not creamy or loaded with pico de gallo--make the final product a real winner.

Insider Tips

What to Drink

To accompany your meal, try the sweet and refreshing horchata, a milky beverage that tastes like rice pudding and is a great complement to Mexican fare.

The Extras

Beyond-the-burrito offerings such as fish tacos and beef tamales can be a bit dry.

I live four blocks away from El Burrito Express and have been going there for the past decade, and never have I had a negative experience. The burritos are thick, moist and hot, with lots of sauce and not too much rice like a lot of places. I always get a chicken burrito with hot sauce - the Super Broncos are huge, enough to split one with someone else and be satisfied. There is usually a line, but it moves quickly - these people are pros. The only downside: the chips that come free are dry, stale and practically inedible.

Pros: great food, fast service, relatively easy parking

Cons: No ambience whatsoever, closed on Sundays
