      Sometimes there are just some things that you need to hit the spot calories be damned! I don't know why I haven't gotten food from here before but I'm very glad I did today. I had a chili burrito that was bigger than both of my fists put together and it was good. Delivery was pretty quick. I am absolutely ordering from here again because it made me happy.

      Pretty decent little shop by Central Park for Mexican food. Came here around 7:30 on a Wednesday and there was an endless stream of people ordering, but enough seats in the shop to dine in. I ordered the steak burrito bowl and it was quite large. Food itself was pretty good but nothing noteworthy. They give you free salsa and chips on the side. The salsa was great but chips were a little stale.

      I love El Burrito Box, it's a staple! The food is delicious and very reasonably priced. They can have somewhat long wait times from time to time, but it's worth the wait. I love their burrito bowls and burritos.

      A great spot right by Lincoln Center/Columbus square for a pretty solid burrito/taco.

      Ordered two Asada burritos with everything, a little pricy at $15+ per burrito, but maybe the huge portions will balance that cost for ya! The asada was really great though....

      Wish they had limes and more salsa outside of the typical canned red salsa. Nonetheless, a good eat!

      Good food! It's a solid 3. Loved the sour cream and packedness of the burrito. The red sauce was ok. Chips and salsa were average. But the burrito was very satisfactory and satiated my hunger.

      Got it to go, so can't attest to the in-store dining.

      Best burritos in town 100%. I've been coming here for years, and the quality has never gone down the best burritos you could ever eat.

      Decided to check this place out since there's always a line. I ordered the tacos, which were basically two mini burritos. Food was decent but it was missing that Mexican kick.

      Great no-frills kinda spot for a quick bite. Have picked up and had delivery from here multiple times. You know exactly what you're gonna get (consistently good) and always hits the mark when craving simple mexican. Pretty great value for the price as well, especially when compared to known places/chains that serve similar food.

      Regardless if you need spicy or just flavorful, you can adjust for either or both.

      Good food, solid Tex-mex. No frills, but a big variety and good stuff. Had the tacos and came back for tostada salad.

      This is one of my favorite spots to grab a quick bite. I had a grilled portobello burrito, and I loved the bold flavor. The prices were reasonable, and service was quick.
