Generous portions for the price. Flavor was great. We tried a variety of items from burritos, nachos, tacos and more. It is super packed inside with little seating so most like have to eat somewhere else. Their signature burritos take 10-15+ minutes to prepare but overall, staff were super nice. Good experience.
When I ate at La Burrita while attending the University of California, Berkeley for graduate studies a number of years ago, I appreciated the proximity of this Euclid Ave location to the building my office was in (McCone Hall). Some of my comrades thought the food a little bland, however, I found with the pickled vegetables and salsas the food was more flavorful. Workers were helpful and professional in my experiences. Depending on the time of day, the inside could be packed or have a number of tables open. Chips tended to be fresh and crispy. The interior was cleanly, though could show the wear from traffic if coming in after meal times.
For the prices and the portion sizes, I have to say that La Burrita is not bad ! The service was good, as they got my order out fairly quickly and the flavor was definitely there. However, the way in which they react to a customer saying they're picking up the orders is... questionable. The ambiance itself is nice. A fairly homey mexican restaurant with many different people ordering and everything relatively clean. I definitely recommend trying the salsas they have on the side. I got the Super Nachos and Quesabirria tacos from here. The Nachos were good, but the cheese drowned the top layer and made the chips too soggy. Along with that, it was pretty greasy from the carne asada on them. The Quesabirria tacos were full of flavor, but the consome that comes with it was a little too salty for my taste. Also, it does not compare with the birria that my dad makes !! But out of all the quesabirria tacos I've had, I would rank it #3. All in all, I have to say, not bad. The pricing reminds me of home and so does the flavor. Thank you La Burrita!
I thought the quesadilla tasted delicious (well-seasoned, a lot of cheese, nice helping of guacamole, sour cream, and salsa). It did cost ~$12 though, but it's pretty big in size.
