| - So, I should preface this with a personal disclaimer: I grew up in Southern California and my standards for Mexican food are quite high. That being said, Burrito Bandidos is a slow and unsanitary place.
Do not go here if you are in a hurry at lunch or need something quick on the go. It took about 10+ minutes for me to get a veggie burrito, which isn't so bad in the big scheme of things, but is much slower than places like Chipotle or just about any other Mexican take-out.
But, this isn't why I'm giving them 1 star. I'm giving them 1 star because of their strange and unhygienic practices. When you order, staff place an old and stained wooden thing (think of a popsicle stick) onto your tortilla. This wooden thing has a V for veggie, and other letters designating other kinds of burritos. I don't know why, but I found this to be a little weird.
The real problem, though, was in how the cook managed my burrito. He wasn't wearing gloves and was turning the burrito over with his hands, which he'd been on a heavily stained black apron. He was also taking sips from an old Tim Horton's coffee cup while preparing my burrito. I'm usually not a stickler on these things, but I don't like it when someone whose hands look dirty are touching food that I'm about to eat.
Also, the burrito was't that good.
