| - This was my first Canadian burrito.
Have lived across the U.S., now for my money there is no better burrito than a carnitas super burrito from the mission. Not trying to snob out, that's just my preference. There are many many delicious burritos to be eaten.
Ordered pulled pork with everything. Got the medium salsa ... that was a mistake, it was uninteresting. It was like the kind of generic tomato "mild salsa" you get in a jar at a supermarket (i.e. cooked, not fresh like pico, and not spicy). You also get a choice of tortilla. They throw the entire assembled burrito on the grill.
The pork was overly sweet for my taste, but then again it was advertised as pulled pork and most people like sweet BBQ, so who am I to disagree. It was fine. All the other ingredients were fresh and improved the total package, overall a solid burrito.
Would eat again, staff were friendly and fast. I would change up the salsa and order something else next time ... and they have some interesting options, Halibut, mango chicken.
Would recommend they throw some serious cilantro, onion in there and kick the salsa up a notch. Bring the flava! I hope there is a place in Toronto where you can get a big wad of cilantro for 25 cents, because that is how life is improved for everyone.
