| - Big bite is right. Let me start by telling you my unconditional love for burritos. I LOVE THEM. Especially burrito bowls.. it's like happiness in each bite. Whenever I'm a food court with chipotle, I will get chipotle. It's not even a question. When yelp searching 'burrito' at 12am one night (I know you feel me on this), I came across this 4 star venue not that far away - I knew the next day I had to holla @ it.
The parking lot is soooo small .. most people in the area walk, but if you are parking .. good luck. Spaces are tighter than your old gym teacher's pants too.. be extremely careful when backing in, which is what you'll want to do because I cannot even fathom leaving this lot (which opens directly into the road) with head in parking. It's super easy to find though, right at kennedy and sheppard.
The burrito place is bigger than I expected. It was also not dingy, like I had expected. With cute retro and sarcastic signs all over the wall, I knew this was the type of place I can f with. Ordering is super quick and even though there were only 2 workers, they were efficient. Pretty much the same speed as the command chain @ chipotle. I was also surprised to see how many options of burrito, the sizes and sides you can get. They even had more than one vegan/vegetarian option!! Woop woop! I opted for the sweet potato burrito bowl, which was under $10 and had guac included. Chipotle can seriously eat it's dust because big bite provided such a packed bowl that I felt sickening-full before with a large portion left to spare inside the box. They also had a lot of options to choose from to put in your burrito/burrito bowl. Corn, jalapeno, tomato, salsa, FREE guac, green pepper, olive, onions and they add in chips on the side for how much extra? FREE! & might I add that the sweet potato medallions in my bowl were larger than life.
The bf also ordered a pulled pork burrito. They called it out within minutes and he started to devour it, the hungry bear he is. As he was halfway done, the man shouted to him and asked him if it was pulled pork that he had. Turns out it wasn't and he had eaten someone else's burrito. Completely not his fault though because the guy making it did call out pulled pork instead of what it actually was - chicken. So in the end, my boyfriend got a free burrito.. LOL. & He claims the mistaken chicken one he had was actually better than the pulled pork one.
I really like this place and I'm glad it's open kind of late-ish because I will definitely be searching for 'burrito' in the late hours of the night again. I'm also a fan of not going broke every time I get a burrito bowl and have to consider if I should get guac or have enough $ to live semi-comfortably for the rest of the week. Achem, chipotle.
