Reviews of The Great Burrito (Restaurant)

Maddy Griebel

Reasonable prices for authentic Mexican food. Grilled chicken quesadilla was excellent, lots of chicken. Be prepared to pay for the homemade salsa

Vicente Planells Palop

Great burritos near central park. Decent price and friendly staff. If you fancy something different, this is your place!!

Claudia Paradise

Vile, inedible food. Just threw 40 bucks out the window. We ordered grilled chicken and could not identify meat. My dog turned her nose up. Yuck!!!

Cathy Bourgeois

Great quesadillas and salsa verde!

JJ Farrell

I hate to be the guy that does a bad review for a restaurant, but it must be said. I had the grilled chicken burrito and it was like I just simply ate air. The grilled chicken tasted frozen and bland, the rice was bland, the sour cream was just white liquid that didn't taste like anything, and the chips were bland as well. I'm originally from Southern California, so I might be a bit harsh. However, $14.15 for this burrito is a major mistake and people should not have to endure the same. I am sorry The Great Burrito, but this burrito was by a large margin the worst Mexican food I have ever eaten.

Brandon Melton

The Chipotle Chicken Enchiladas with Verde sauce are delicious!

Scott Treacy

Best chicken burrito in NYC.

David Loyola

Tasty food

Esther-Hope Gibbs

Huge portions, great soda, perfect service- would go back 100 times!!!

Dustin DeVincentis

Great food, good prices, reliable service. Ideal for takeout, but easy dining in as well.

Corbin Kappler

Best Mexican food on the UWS

Ryne Sechrist

Burrito is good. It can be costly for the food you get but get it a try!

Eduardo Poblete Rodríguez

Hablan en español... perfecto

Adam B

Cash only

Andre Lourenco

Delicious tacos.

beti bass

Original, homemade fresh mexican food.

Kris Cocco

My favorite is the hard shell taco's..

Nicolas El-Hage

Good in a pinch, but not a Mission-style burrito.

David Luftig

Always delicious reasonably priced food. Highly recommend it.

Brooke Jones

Food is very good and flaovorful. If you dine in you receive complimentary chips, salsa and water. Food items are a bit pricey though

Marta Losa

Great burritos and tacos. Slightly pricey for a takeaway, but completely worthy!

Yaniv L

The salsa verde is amazing, and the burrito was also very good

Leha Edwards

Limited seating but it's never been an issue. Great food!

SARAH MILLWARD

Go here at least once a week. LOVE IT! Veggie tacos are a must. Always easier if you know a few words of Spanish. Just rice, beans etc. Food is great!

hankash01

Great Burrito is hands down the best, and most authentic Mexican Food I have ever had. The service is great and of course the food, delicious. The only thing I would ask for them is to expand their business and create more restaurants, so more people will know their amazing taste.

David Sanz Castel

Con mucho de ventaja, el sabor de los platillos es auténtico y no saben a la típica comida enlatada estadounidense que un turista promedio puede pagar. Recomendable al cien por ciento

Jason Holloway

A staple of the UWS

Jameson Hartman

Best genuine Mexican burrito in Manhattan. Definitely will be my go to whenever craving something that is not Chipotle

Cindy Hwang

Food is for certain 5 stars for taste and value. It's mainly a take out joint they recently renovated/redesigned the location and it's not as charming as before - not that you'd go for ambience. All fresh ingredients, salsa is so amazingly fresh with a bright kick. Service is also 5 stars - friendly, honest, great people. When we order and they are backed up they make sure we know and double check if we still want to wait. For sure we wait! Absolute favorites are the steak tacos - soft shell, fish tacos only on the weekends and anything with chicken mole. Yum!!

Alex Amirsaleh

Food is good. Delivery/service needs work

Tony Changho

Small space that serves up huge portions of solid Mexican that won't break the bank.

Aracely Guz

The food was great I definitely coming back

Monty Gada

Fresh ingredients, good flavors. Prices inflated, pinto beans made with chicken stock unnecessarily.

Matthew Tarr

This is far and away the finest meal in New York City. I have worked in the hood for 17 years, and have eaten at great burrito probably 1000 time... And I'd do it all again. "Nachos, refried beans, easy on the cheese, hot"

Rob Kass

One of the very few places in Manhattan to get truly authentic Mexican food. No fancy and frilly faux Mexican cuisine here... Just the real deal stuff. Small joint...just a few tables. Get it to go or delivery. Quick service.

Gregor J. Rothfuss

cheap and good on the UWS? sign me up. While not mission-level quality, this tiny joint has decent mexican food for not much money.

Casey Brown

Burritos are large and delicious and the guac was fantastic.

Kiersten Gourlay

$15 entrees, $4 tacos, tons of options between those prices ranges. The tacos were delicious, service was great and they are super quick.

Flex Diaz

Best guac eva

Mia Maria

Great place for burritos!

Seth Robins

If tacos are one of your passions, the best of the best chicken tacos (and separate taco types offered of spinach, or corn, or beans) are found here. When the owner is around he is a very gracious man, and the food and often changing decor of the tiny place represents him well.

Athul Prabhu

Amazing burritos.. Had pork tinga and steak and onion.. They were delicious!!.. Found guava juice as well

Vineet Kumar

Tasty mexican food. Good burritos, good nachos. Mexicoke!

TheUrbanHuntsman

Grilled chicken taco is delicious! Fresh and flavorful

Manuel Danzinger

Sehr kleines Lokal! Waren ca um 16:00 dort daher kein Problem! Preis/Leistung war in Ordnung! Burrito und Tacos sehr zu empfehlen!

Fabrício Schuch Lima

Remember the excellent pork burrito brings tears to my eyes.

Roman Colton

The spicy salsa is

Melody Giron

extremely overpriced. no flavor. overstuffed tortillas.

David Doherty

THE taco/burrito place on the upper West side. They only have a few tables so its mostly a hole in the wall. I live 2 blocks away and order via GrubHub A LOT. They are always prompt and the food is delivered in good condition.

Steve Auerbach

My favorite local Mexican he in the wall. I mostly get chicken Molé, burrior enchilada.

Hasaan Smith

A five star "hole in the wall". You get your monies worth!

Charles Nixon

The best surprise was finding such a great mexican place in the city where the food is awesome. Its a small place though, so be prepared for limited seating.

Ana Tortolero Coppola

Great, tasty food, the Flautas were particularly divine. Service was also great and fast.

Mark Johnson

Awesome Mexican food

Sean Mintz

Such a good spot and lovely people to boot. The cheese enchiladas were excellent, as were the chips, salsa, and guacamole. Tons of vegetarian options. Very much looking forward to my next visit.

LaJuan Hughes

Very good burrito. Did I say very good.

blahmeli

Decided to stop in one day while on vacation. My cousin got two beef tacos which she said were really good. I got a vegetarian burrito with guacamole added in. Oh my god it tasted so good. And it was huge. I'm not embarrassed to say that I ate the whole thing.

Ian N.

Lovely place and people. Real is real and this place is real Mexican food. Small space so get there and be prepared to wait, but well worth it.

Michael W

It's okay. Does the job if you're in a rush, otherwise I'd go elsewhere.

Ella Berkeley

Always fantastic. Flavorful and cheap. Must go to for takeout.

(Translated by Google) Fully recommended to regain strength after going to the Museum of Natural Sciences or a tour of Central Park. It's very small, but the burritos are huge! And they are great :) (Original) Totalmente recomendable para reponer fuerzas después de ir al Museo de Ciencias Naturales o de una vuelta por Central Park. Es muy pequeñito, pero los burritos son enormes!! Y están buenísimos :)

Theodore Strauss

Good burritos

Jenny Saunders

So good.

Makayla Grizzle

Very friendly and delicious. Great flan!

Sharmeen

Legit chicken mole. Best I've had in the city.

John Roen

Been coming here 18 years. Still the best authentic Mexican taco you can find.

Meir Benudis

Food was garbage. it was so bad i could not eat it. Chicken was old dried and over cooked. Crema was watery. Only vegetable was lettuce and was bad. And when i complained they could not care less.

Steve Welgoss

Prices here are about the same as going to a full sit-down restaurant, without any of the convenience or atmosphere.

Nicole B Garcia

It's a cute small place. I believe it's just been recently redone since most of the online photos don't match the actual interior anymore. The food was fast, the wait staff was helpful. I ordered the veggie burrito and they gave me a cup of water and chips and salsa without asking (which I appreciated but don't know if that's standard or just because it was slow) I actually disliked my burrito though. The ingredients weren't spread out. Corn was on one end, kale in the middle. Carrots on the other end. (I also personally think that kale is gross in a burrito) I wanted to like this place since it's so close by and fast so I guess I'll have to come back and try something else (and ask to have my sour cream, lettuce and salsa INSIDE the burrito instead of on the side like how they serve it)

Barbara Friedkin

Our go-to local for consistently good Mexican favorites!

Ravi Rampatsingh

Authentic Mexican food with a really, really, great burrito.

Martin Rodriguez

Place is small, but the food is amazing...

Vrashank Dave

Delicious food. Usually when Mexican place uses lettuce it's a red flag for me, but this place is worth it. Takes cash or card-above 10$

Jina Koffi

Great quesadillas!

Mendez David

Not impressed. I felt ripped off paying 15 bucks for a rice burrito with some chicken in it. Very bland for Mexican. Never again.

J P

One of the best burritorias around

Isabel Castro

La salsa y la comida muy ricas

Benjamin Agosto

Muy buena comida y excelente servicio lo recomiendo

Terrence Mckay

One of my go-to spots to eat. good location, well organised, and excellent service. A must try!

Jusuf Cekic Ahmetaj

Prices are ridiculous

Emily Hart

$15 for a tasty burrito, but wished it had a bit more veggies in it. Mostly just rice and beans. The salsa was delicious!

abe morales

authentic mex food .

Randy Weinstein

Delicious food! Friendly service! My son loves the pinto bean tacos and I love the chicken mole!

Pablo Porfirio

This is a family owned place that I've been going to since the kids were just able to look over the bar. My favorite is the Pork Tinga tacos.

Sebastian Iturregui-Shelton

Good food but expensive. Chicken quesadilla was delicious, specifically the meat used. Salsa does come separately with chips however

Startego

Viel essen für wenig Geld. Geschmacklich ok

Francisco Salas

This is a family little restaurant. The food is really good and the service is amazing.

Gabriele Rogora

(Translated by Google) Great burrito with chicken, generous portion about $ 15. I advise. (Original) Ottimo burrito con pollo, porzione abbondante circa 15 dollari. Lo consiglio.

Ralph Blanco

Delicious!

Daynne Wilder

The only reason it doesn't get five star's is because it's a tiny spot. So if you go there when it's busy good luck finding a seat. Put simply that was the best Burrito I've ever had, and I've had plenty from a variety of different Mexican restaurants. You can't go wrong with the chipotle chicken!

James Macgill

Tiny restaurant with limited seating. But good service and food.

Zack

Best Mexican food I've had in a long time! Probably best in NYC

Blake G

So good

Rasheena Pollack

Amazing, huge burritos!

John Doe

recommend the quesadilla tasty as anything but a little slow service

Patrick Fallon

I have been waiting for over an hour for a delivery! I only ordered one thing and I live only 10 blocks north. I have never waited so long for food to be delivered in the city and I have lived here for 6 years! Extremely disappointing.

Elizabeth J

FAVORITE taco place in the city. I wish they were closer to my home. They grill their fillings and they are generous with the meat.

Andrew Robinson

Delicious. Great quality.

Chaz Stickels

As a Texan I think I may have been doomed to be disappointed in any Mexican food I had in NY. This was alright, friendly service and not much of a wait.

Jeremy Nash

Tiny place. Seating for maybe 10? My chicken burrito was phenomenal.

Masaki Fujitani

Great place to eat! This place is really small!

Torsten Neffke

Yummy

Carolyn Barry Zacsh

Great giant burritos! I had the veggie burrito and it was filled with corn, carrots, and some sort of collard green. Strange combination, but really good.

Belita Hittub

The best place to eat in New York

Gavin Eng

Cheap and good

Garrett Ewald

Nice small space. Good menu.
