PostPosted: Sun Dec 30, 2007 11:43 am    Post subject: Burritos

I live in Atlanta, but originally I'm from northern California, Stockton to be exact and last year I came home for the holidays and had a burrito from "The Green Burrito" which is a part of Carl's Jr, and enjoyed it. I liked it so much that I ate another one. Are the burritos really good there, or do I have bad taste? The only other chain choices that I have are Del Taco, Taco Bell, and Jack in the Box. Any other suggestions? Also, I'm a vegetarian, so meat is not an issue with me.

You're a Veggie? Aw man! You wastin' our time!

But (As the unofficial fast food guru ) I'll start a thread and ask the "Burrito Headz" here where the best burritos are.

Let's here your spots for best burrs, L.A. or outside of La La land. I had a homemade burrito last night and it was off the hook.

I know there's this spot near (or in) East Los that has this HUUUUUGE BURRITO. The place may be called King Burrito, can anyone confirm that? Thanks.

Not really.. I mean sometimes I will call a place I go to a lot, like a neighborhood place, "the taco shop," but in general people just call the places by their names.

Taco Fiesta, Los Ponchos, Sambreros, Roberto's, etc., etc. I lived in LA for three years of my life and really I didn't find any better mexican food than can be found in San Diego.

If you want GREAT mexican food... just go to old town San Diego, best Mexican in the country.

There's a place on Broadway and Vernon (It could be called Louisiana Chicken) but they make some bomb-ass Steak & Cheese burritos.

I think you're thinking of El Tepeyac and the Hollenbeck Burrito.


I love El Gran Burrito on SM Blvd and Vermont. Open late!

Any Valley spots? There was one place in West Hills that was incredible but I'm suddenly having a brain fart on the cross streets. It was a small joint "mom and poppish" but I loved that place.

I was just thinking about Lux's food threads today and the possibility of a burrito thread. Awesome to see it.
