| - I love me a burrito. When I saw a chow mein burrito, and all the mixed reviews associated, I knew that eventually the day would come where I would try this creation. Spoiler alert: They are serving one heck of a bland, mediocre burrito here at chino locos.
We had the pulled pork with 'medium' hot sauce, despite knowing from reviews that it may be bland. At the cash there was a sign saying, "medium is HOT" (yeah, in caplocks and everything!) So we went safe, just in case. The pork was dry, the sauce non-existent, the noodles mushy, and I can't even tell you what else was in this since there was just no flavour. However I can tell you it ended in a soggy mess - that's where all the pork juices went!
We ordered the hot sauce on the side - it is very hot, made with serranos (I think?! much hotter than jalapenos.) So order it if you want some heat. Real heat. "I love hot food and this is spicy", kind of heat.
I bring nothing new to the reviews - I can only prompt you to listen to the bad ones and avoid disappointment. All those leaving 5 star reviews have clearly never had a good burrito before and I feel really bad for them, even chains are producing something better, or equal.
The benefits of here... it's cheap! We went in hungry and came out satisfied after sharing a Jarrito and a burrito for ~$10. They had some good tunes playing, the staff was nice, but you won't ever catch me here again.
