| - Hot Head Burritos is to burritos what Firehouse Subs is to subs sandwichs. No, I do not mean they have wet burritos here. I mean they have a lot of different types of hot sauce. Maybe a few less than a Firehouse Subs would have...but still a wide variety.
Atmosphere - Red, Black, and White (reminds me of Firehouse Subs less the fireman paraphernalia), stand alone tables and chairs, window seating, traditional Chipotle/Qdoba/Moe's style ordering process.
Service - Prompt, friendly, confused (this was their 2nd day open...so confusion was understandable)
Food - I got a burrito and a bowl to go on this visit. HHB has some nice choices that include two rices (brown or white), two beans (pinto or black), six proteins (chicken, steak, pork, taco meat, barbacoa, and vegetarian). All the proteins listed, also come in a spicy variant too. They have 13 choices of hot sauce for which you can decide for yourself which one is unlucky #13.
I ended up ordering a chicken burrito and a barbacoa bowl. The chicken was standard fair while the barbacoa tasted to me like a spicy rump roast. Something I have not had elsewhere...at least not from a burrito chain. I kind of played it safe on the hot sauce and got the Louisiana Gold Red Pepper sauce. It was hot without being so spicy as to ruin the other flavors in the meal.
On a downside I do not remember if they had tortilla chips. Nonetheless, I was not offered chips like at a Moe's or a Qdoba with my takeout order...minus a star there.
Overall - I think I will place HHD in my rotation of burrito joints to visit. Especially if I had a cold and wanted to warm things up a bit.
