| - Ok. I just paid essentially $12 for a disappointing brunch, and I'm not thrilled about this. The Sonoran breakfast burrito sounded great-- eggs, chorizo, green chilies, jack cheese, and salsa are among my favorite things to put in a burrito. This is gonna be awesome, I thought reading the description. I was hungry and excited about breakfast. Oh, how let down I was with that first bite! Reality intruded on my fantasy breakfast with extreme prejudice. I had been burrito- blocked!
First of all, the "meat" was not chorizo. Chorizo is deliciously greasy (that good red grease that lets you know its for real) and bursting with spicy flavor. My burrito had "chorizo" in it -- flavorless Sysco breakfast crumbles. There were also some green things that may have been chilies, and some onions, but neither tasted like the things they were masquerading as. The only thing I tasted in the whole thing was the splat of tomato salsa on top. Seriously, the breakfast burrito from McDonald's had more flavor than this poor creature they served me! And you know I can't stand McDonald's, it is the court of last resort!
I was glad to see a decent selection of fruit on my $1.25 upcharge fruit plate. No complaints there, at least until our server knocked the table flag (the standup display advertising specials, don't know what its officially called) over in the middle of it.
Service was not great either, which also fed my irritation about breakfast.
We might be back (I'll get something else), but I can't see being a regular.
