Rebuilding. It is no longer part of the "El Burrito Loco" 'franchise', but it has a similar menu and quality. This is my favorite Mexican place on the eastside. The restaurant is being remodeled right now, but it appears as if it will continue to be more of a pickup-your-burrito-and-go place, rather than a sitdown restaurant.

Service is a lttle slow, as they often have younger people working the register, but your food starts as soon as they signal back the order. Burritos are excellent; tightly-wrapped and always hot. The salsa comes in hot or smoking hot, which I prefer, but it is definitely not the tomato water that the Americanized restaurants often serve. Try the Orchata drink, almost a milky eggnog taste.

The food is great, and you can get full on less than $6. I recommend it!
