| - I go here on a somewhat regular basis, mainly because it's close to my house. The first thing you'll notice when you walk in is that the staff won't like you. They're not the most friendly sort, and I've only seen them smile when talking to each other. Their goal is to get you to pay and then leave as soon as possible.
Aside from that, the food is okay. I've been to other Mucho Burrito locations where the burritos tasted much better, but this one does in a pinch. The guacamole is pretty bland, and it tastes like one of those gross guacamole chip dips rather than actual crushed avocados, which is really too bad because real guacamole makes a huge difference in flavour. Their hot salsa is medium at best, not really all that spicy. They have a little dessert tray that has cookies and churros, but I've never ordered from it-- everything in there looks like it has been there for weeks. Their tired servers will then ask "to stay or to go?", and without looking at you, they'll type something into the register and then lean against the counter, looking away from you, as you pay for your meal. Once you've paid, you'll be lucky if you get a "thank you" out of them-- but you're Canadian, and you'll say "thank you" to them regardless of their cold indifference towards your presence.
So, yeah, go here if you're desperate for a burrito, but don't expect a Chipotle-like experience-- you're in Canada, after all, and about as far away from real Mexican food as you can get. But, I go back occasionally, so it can't be all that bad.
