    If you don't know where this place is, you could easily miss it at college park! This restaurant had incredible food. All very fresh and we could tell when they were going down the line creating our burrito. The corn, the cilantro, the guacamole everything just smelled/ looked so fresh. In a sense when you're making your burrito or bowl or salad, it's similar to Subway. You start on the right side of the counter and your work your way to the left cashier. Along the way. Cheeses, beans, herbs, spices, vegetables all are stuff you can choose to add. The burritos themselves are quite huge. The service from the staff was also really commendable. They were friendly, helpful and served us quickly. If you're coming up from the subway station heading towards Bay, I really would suggest trying this place out. You'll catch it just to the left of the booster juice in the foyer.

    Love their burrito bowl as always, fresh bbq chicken and guacamole. Good vibes, I always like to go back whenever I pass by college park. Only 3 minutes walk straight away from College subway station. Wonderful customer service and good location.

    This was my second time coming here. It’s a great place for a quick lunch. I got the chicken burrito bowl with all the toppings except cilantro and guac. While it was pretty good, I did find myself wishing there was more chicken. Will probably come back with fingers crossed they’ll improve the portions 🙃

    This place doesnt seem to have the sign outside so its easy to miss if you pass by college park. They take their time and adequately serve for a meal. I always get grilled chicken burrito. This is my go-to place at the end of the day. My personal best mexican eatery around dundas, college, and wellesley stations

    Very friendly staff, inexpensive awesome traditional Mexican food. Hot nachos $2.25 and an ample amount. Guacamole $2.50 traditional and delicious. Great quesadillas as well. Very professional staff.

    Had a beef barbacoa burrito. It was big, well-prepared, and tasty. The cost is comparable to other burritos from nearby restaurants. I just wish they had a proper sitting area.

    Edit: their burrito portions shrank the last two times I've been there. Not sure if it's the server or the economy. But paying this much for a tiny scoop of chicken is not reasonable. This used to be my fav burrito place. Now I can't imagine coming back.

    The ingredients are fresher than any similar restaurant. Portion sizes were good, and the cost wasn't too bad.

    Very disappointed with bowl and burritos. Bowl was 2/3 empty. 1/3 was just bed of rice with a 1-2 spoonful of topping. Burritos was soggy and leaky. Felt robbed. Pls Improve or shut down. Would not recommend.

    Unfortunately this location tries to be very cheap. I asked for half lettuce, half rice as the base, they still Loaded up on rice (cheap stuff) and only gave me 3/4 scoop of veggie crumble protein when they normally always give two scoops of veggie crumble (I’ve been here about 10 times). They don’t even have real lettuce and it’s a kale mix, which tastes so bad.

    Too much sauce. Remember to ask for sauce on side or less sauce if you don’t want to be drenched in sauce. Meat is a little too salty

  • 1/5 Brian P. 1 year ago on Google
    Checked out this place today and I felt cheated. Ordered 4 tacos and they put a teeny tiny portion of meat on every single one of my tacos, very different from the pics others have posted. Maybe the guy didn’t like me bcuz I am Asian. Anyway, I won’t be back. Spent 20 bucks and still felt starved afterwards. Don’t come to this place if you are Asian.

    Food is delish. Burritos are fat and filling . Chciken is flavourful af. Service is friendly and very fast

  • 3/5 Danielle A. 6 months ago on Google
    Would give this place higher but service can be a hit or miss. Food the taste is amazing, however loading up on rice when I say less rice is not cool. Everytime I come I am given less than the portion of beans and want to give more gravy from the black beans instead of the beans itself. Also if I am willing to pay for additional cheese or veggies don't skimp...

  • 5/5 Asma S. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing flavourful bowls that fill you up. The chicken bowl I had was really good and full of flavour. This place is what chipotle wishes to be. Place is well maintained and clean. Service was quick and friendly. Super convenient location too.

    I love their Grilled Chicken bowl! Super fresh and yummy. The staffs are amazing as well.

  • 4/5 Porus M. 1 year ago on Google
    I'm quite familiar with the outlet on Yonge-Eglinton and this one is just as good if not even better. The burrito bowls are really good. I really liked the food here especially the chicken burrito bowl. They have made good use of the limited space and maintained a good standard of cleanliness and hygiene. I personally felt the food, especially the rice and the chicken were even better than the outlet at Yonge-Eglington and those guys have set the bar high.

    Fantastic burrito spot! After having disappointment after disappointment at Chipotle and similar restaurants, it’s a welcome change of pace. More options, better quality ingredients, more reasonably priced than its direct competitors, and generally way better customer service when I’ve popped in.
