    Salsa shop had my heart from the moment I first ate it. It’s a quick but super filling meal for any time of the day. The staff is always friendly and their homemade lemonades don’t have bubbles which I learned is rare in the Netherlands. BUT I LOVE IT.

    Got a wet burrito, is this what they call 'juicy' meat? Almost a pint of moist. Maybe drain the oil next time. The beans were undercooked as well. After a few attempts eating the thing I tossed the burrito in the bin where it belongs. Not the best experience, especially for the price.

    This was delicious! I had a burrito bowl with all the toppings and of course guacamole, and boy is that a lot of food. Portion size is definitely on point. Best thing about this is that they use fresh ingredients, so even though there's cheese and sour cream in there, you're still eating relatively healthy. So basically fast food without the guilt! They also have a nice seating area so you don't have to eat this on the go. I'll be back!

    One of my favorite dining spots in Hoog Catharijne, Utrecht. Choose from your options of taco, burrito, bowls or salads and let them prepare it to your liking. Super tasty!

    Quite expensive for what you get. The burrito was too cold and the lettuce was soaked in vinegar, which made the whole thing taste acidic. The service wasn't great, one of the servers was quite rude to a customer because she accidentally ordered the wrong topping.

    Absurd prices for a cold burrito. Ingredients seem fine but it's silly how cold it is. Could easily fix this by having a hot plate next to the payment register and leaving the burrito on there for a minute before handing it to the customer, something other burrito shops seem to achieve with little trouble. This shouldn't be a cent over 9 euros, I'm pretty sure it's 12€ for a chicken burrito these days. That's okay, I'll still keep eating this garbage.

    Great quesadillas - must say there were exceptionally good compared to the ones around. The home made ice teas are also a solid recommendation in summer times. For example I ordered the Cool cucumber Mint Lime juice and that was exactly what the hot weather demanded! Not the coziest spot to eat in though, but the fact that they ahve an indoor terrace with the view towards the mall is still worth appreciating.

    Friendly staff. Trilingual staff ( Spanish, Dutch, and American) Food was warm at best. Chips were good. Proportions of the toppings were off. Salsa not very spicy but still tasty. Worker added corn without asking. Very cool recycling! (Awesome)

    My husband grabbed some tacos for me some days ago, and it was delicious. Everything seemed like the right amount of what should be. I enjoyed it very much.

    Identical to Chipotle in the US. It is good if you are hungry. Chicken and Barbacoa is recommended. It is a calorie bomb though if you get a regular burrito. It has both rice and the bread. Still it is a god send if you want relatively cheap, filling lunch/dinner. I ordered to my home in another branch. It was ice cold when it arrived. So it is better if you dine in. Don't order out. Edit: it sounded like it is only filling and economical. Taste is delicious too. My favorite fast food. Just watch for calories in case you order burito.

    First time customer, very positive experience. Coming from the rainy weather outside to enjoy a burrito inside was very enjoyable. I had the grilled veggie option which was huge and they also served with free guac. It was good to see another vegan option since there aren't many in the HC shopping mall or Central Station. Would definitely recommend!

    The hot salsa was excellent. The lady working there asked me 4 times if I was sure I wanted the hot saying it was very spicy. I got it. I polished off the whole burrito thinking it wasn’t that hot then 5 minutes later the spice kicked in! It was great. I am often disappointed by hot sauce but this was genuinely hot. The other ingredients in the Carnitas burrito was also great.

    The food is great, but do not order from there. They are working with Uber eats, which is not reliable at all. Half the times I ordered, there was a problem. This time, the delivery person did not contact me and the delivery was canceled. Hopefully they will start working with another company soon.

    To be honest, not a great experience. We got a burrito with pulled pork. The rice was undercooked and the pork was dry and hard. Maybe the food is better on other days but I don't think I'll give it a second chance. The staff was wonderful though.

  • 5/5 Alexandra I. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is really nice and cozy. I like that every time the employees are nice and everything is moving fast, in just a few minutes everything is done. The vibes are nice and it is perfect to have after a shopping session in the mall

  • 5/5 Sean H. 1 year ago on Google
    Wholesome Mexican food. Each time we had different variations of the tacos and each time it was great. Would highly recommend!

    Me and my husband had lunch here and we loved it! The restaurant was super clean, the personnel was nice & efficient and the food was delicious and fresh. I particularly recommend the burrito with carnitas!

  • 5/5 Wytze K. 1 year ago on Google
    I visit Salsa Shop nearly every week for lunch. The personnel is very friendly, the meat is super tasty, nice choice of spiciness in salsa, and a nice amount of veggies too. Would recommend!

  • 2/5 Ariel SY L. 1 year ago on Google
    I’m quite disappointed that the burrito is cold and a bit small, and that the waitress seems not able to understand English. I asked for a non-spicy sauce but turn out she gave me a spicy one. And I only know it when I’m eating it. It’s also impossible to change it as I ordered it as a takeaway. I should avoid spicy food at the moment due to health problems so it’s a bit annoying. Also I find it nicer if the sign can tell clearly if there’s vegan meat in the chilli sin carne because I asked the waitress and she seemed not able to comprehend my question. Also I find the sign a bit unclear about the extra costs of the toppings, until now I still don’t get it if it’s only the guacamole that would cost extra €2. The taste is not bad though.

    First time trying Salsa Shop. Very mediocre and lacks flavor. My bowl was only half filled, so I was still hungry afterwards. There was barely any meat (I picked carnitas) and it was a bit dry. Wouldn't recommend.
