| - More like a 3.5 star rating. I once got violent food poisoning from eating Chipotle, but it had nothing to do with the actual food, just my stupidity. But I have yet to go back since that unfortunate incident. If I had reviewed this pre-food poisoning, it probably would have been a 5-star rating. I literally would crave the burritos. Soo good.
I don't know why people think that this place is so "unauthentic", while it may be, it's damn good. Not that I'm an expert at what authentic Mexican cuisine is but I'm pretty certain that it's similar. I assume it's like associated ManchuWok with real Chinese food but what would I know.
In any case, I love this place. The burritos are always the most massive things ever. Like a champ, I wolf down the entire thing, only to be left with the most massive food baby ever. But I never leave unsatisfied.
Inside is the basic, wooden topped stools/chairs and metal counters/tables. There is a serve yourself drink fountain as well, you can purchse beers and margharitas! That's always a plus when eating a burrito.
The one thing that I would recommend is that they grill the burritos after. Every other burrito place that I've been to does this, why does Chipotle not? All they do is press the tortilla prior to adding the ingredients, essentially just heating it up so that it's more flexible to stuff. To really top it off, put some grill marks on there and it'll be near perfection.
I haven't been recently but apparantly the prices were raised $1, which is quite hefty for an already expensive burrito (it used to put you back $8) and if you factor in that guacamole is an extra $2, that'll set you back even further!
I've always had a good experience here, even though I walk out with a double digit bill, I feel like it's worth every penny. I won't have to eat for another 5 hours and for $10 that's okay with me. I just wished that they stayed open a little later than 10pm, even on Fridays and Saturdays! Time to open up past 11pm, especially with all the bars that are popping up around the Yonge-Dundas area.
