| - It's not really super-convenient for me to go to the strip unless I have a plan and a few things I want. Coming from Shadyside means I need to get in my car and drive, and I don't really like parking in the strip, and then it's always super-crowded on the weekends, etc. etc. etc.
But for a chorizo burrito from that taco stand? I would travel to the ends of the earth for one of those!
Reyna Foods is one of those places that makes me really wish that Pittsburgh would have a street food revolution. Every popular part of town should have food carts. They're quick, convenient, and delicious. Reyna is hopefully a trend setter, and definitely a hard act to follow.
The folks who run it are always smiling, and are pretty dedicated to making sure you get your food exactly the way you wanted it. I personally like my burrito "con todo," except for sour cream. The hot sauce they put on it? Fantastic. A burrito from this place is a solid, high-density mass of stomach-filling bliss.
Another upshot is it's not like any other burrito you're going to get in town. It's a great combo of fresh and rich flavors.
There are only two complaints I have, and there's only one REAL complaint I have. The real complaint is that the line sometimes gets really long, and it takes a while to get served. The fake complaint is that it weirds me out a little that they toss the burrito in the microwave for a bit at the end (seems like a Sheetz move to me,) but it really don't affect the quality of the food, so who cares?
As for the store itself? I don't really have enough experience with it to say much. But try the taco cart ASAP!
