The name of the restaurant combined with the creative menu items led me to believe that the food from Fat Bastard Burrito would be quite good, but oh how wrong I was. I carefully made my selection of a naked baja chipotle chicken burrito, getting most of the toppings available. I sat hungrily in my house, patiently waiting for the über eats delivery to arrive. Arrive it did, and when I opened the box and saw the display, I got my first hint that the food was going to be trash. I took a bite. I didn’t like it very much, but thought I would give it another chance so I ate some more. I consumed about a quarter of that salty monstrosity before I decided I should just quit. It was overly-salted and the«chipotle» sauce(think sweet barbecue tasting shit) was extremely unnappealing. Due to this experience, I have created a Unilocal account specifically to give Fat Bastard Burrito the one-star rating it truly deserves.

Late night snack after returning from the Raptors game, popped in at about 11:45pm, 15 mintues to close and got a great meal. Steak & Shrimp Naked Bowl stuffed with veggies and very tender meat. Friendly and very curdious staff, great place for hearty Mexican food.

Really can’t say a bad thing about this place, this specific location has a bathroom… so I prefer it to say some other spots… cough cough Queen West and Yonge near College… no push button door into a broom closet, actual space here and the food rocks.

One of my favourite spot for a quick bite, always fresh, always tasty, and one of the few places which offer a decent size portion. but it doesn’t compare to its sister location Burrito Boyz in Adelaide St. :) Adelaide makes the real burritos huge and real spicy, this location is good but not spicy enough nor large enough. The staff at this location are nice and friendly.

Love this place! Food is great and the staff at this location are very friendly. One night after finishing a late work shift, I arrived here 10 min. to closing and felt bad that they were already cleaning up and starting to pack away some stuff. But they were still more than willing to serve me, reassured me that it was no trouble at all, and even kept up a good conversation while I waited for my food :) They do get really busy during peak lunch and dinner hours and there were a few times where I had to wait a bit to receive my order. However, that didn’t really bother me as I was in no rush. I would recommend that if you do decide to go during those hours that you call in your order instead. Overall, this place is great! Hands down my go-to burrito joint.

I love Tex Mex and the addition of a few good restaurants within the Eglinton E area is a definite bonus as to what was offered before. The place is a bit small with high bench seating, decent music and clean front of house. However, serving area was really messy with bits of everything all over the place, so if you have allergies of anything, this might be a place to be cautious in. Some of the servers talk way too softly and it’s hard to hear anything they’re saying. I ordered the big baja chipotle chicken and ended up getting kfc style chicken fingers with some baja sauce + toppings, this was my first BFB so I was unsure as to whether this is normal so I didn’t really say anything. The use of a flat top grill seals everything in well just like other Tex Mex places serving the same niche market. I also watched them prepare it after the toppings selection and I saw someone in the back clearly remove 1⁄3 of the chicken portion and put it aside(to be used elsewhere). The food was good, but I clearly had mixed feelings with my experience and I will only go when I’m looking for something different from the competition across the street.

Great staff and fast service. Burrito bowls are filled with so many fresh and delicious veggies… Not much room to sit and eat so take it to-go.

Their burittos are awesome. If you are looking for a nice buritto, they have plenty of options and even the guacs are free.

Fantastic burrito joint. Friendly service, great burritos, popular and deservingly so. Must try: crushed tortilla chips, their cabbage topping, and burrito sauce. Side note: heir«Big» size is enormous. If you’re not famished — or don’t have a huge stomach — I’d go for the«Tiny».

Holy scrumptious batman! This is the best burrito I have ever had. Ever. The staff are friendly(and helpful if you’re a newby) and the burrito was tasty and full of yummy ingredients. I had the baked chicken burrito with guac, beans, green peppers, rice, and tomatoes. I got the«Lil» burrito because I knew I’d never be able to polish off a «regular» size, and it was just right for me. I will be back you Fat Bastard.

This place did not disappoint! They have a large variety of burritos and quesadillas to choose from with great fillings. I had the roasted steak burrito. The steak was cooked perfectly, and tasted great with the fillings I chose. The restaurant is clean and the atmosphere was welcoming and friendly. The employees were really nice. There’s nothing that was bad about this place. If you’re looking for somewhere to go for a quick lunch, this is the place to go!

Came here with my friends after school yesterday, and let me just say we were not disappointed. My friend and I shared a «lil steak taco» and omg it’s literally heaven in ur mouth! The meat was soft and not chewy and they had a wild range of stuff to put in it. The place is really tiny so you probably don’t want to bring your whole family and dine in, but it would be excellent to take out. For a burrito thats pretty big for $ 10 it’s worth it. Definitely recommend this place, if you are looking for a quick lunch.

Great taste and fair pricing. Got take out obviously since zero seating area for a family. Since this place seems to be a take out place was a bit disappointed with the fact that the guys forgot napkins in the bag(big no no) and also a minor preference for sour creams instead of salsa … but I’ll chalk it up to being a late night for them. Anyhow what they may have lacked in service, they did, however, make up in flavour. My husband opted for a shrimp burrito — it was ok — the shrimps were scarce. my kids got the fish burrito and that was way better especially because they actually seemed to be more meat in there but it could have been the breading. I would have preferred just a grilled fish in there. I decided on a shrimp quesadilla and was thoroughly satisfied. I loved loved the flavour, I didn’t love the small portion of shrimp — also the cheese seemed stingy. Still I will try it again

One of the tastiest burritos I’ve had in Toronto, and I am really critical about my burritos. The have a great variety of ingredients which are always fresh, and they never cheap out on anything. Portions are fairly substantial; even their«big» burrito — the medium size — is filling enough for me. The food is great, but what really sells this place for me is the customer service. My last experience wasn’t great. I bought 3 burritos to go, and when I got home 10 minutes later they were really cold from the inside. I’m not sure how, but maybe they just weren’t toasted thoroughly. I called them and said I was unsatisfied because I expected the burritos to be hot; there’s no point in buying freshly made burritos and microwaving them 10 minutes after that. It wasn’t even a big deal; I was just disappointed that this experience was worse than my past dealings with them. The manager asked me for my name, and credited me for 3 burritos. Fast forward a week to yesterday; I walked in and asked for the manager, hoping that he would remember our verbal agreement over the phone. He profusely apologized for the negative experience I had with them last time, and got me the 3 burritos we agreed to. And when I ordered a quesadilla on top of that, he said it was on the house. The manager made sure that they were hot enough this time, handed the order to me personally, and thanked me for my continued business. The mistake they made really wasn’t even that big of a deal like I said, since it was my first negative experience with them. It’s important to me that they owned up to it, and even went above and beyond what I expected. I’m definitely coming back here.

Friday lunch time. Had to get in on some take-out food and wanted to eat something I have not had in a long time… FATBASTARD! Went here around 12:20PM and man, the line up was to the door. It was crazy hot, busy here. Whoa Nelly! There was a ton of people waiting to order, waiting to have their food dressed, and waiting to have it grilled. 3 sets of people! I was surprised that with the amount of staff, we did not wait that long! i was thoroughly impressed by the fast customer service and the staff had smiles on their faces and were working hard to please. Every order that was being done had a very organized sequence. Hold on to your order number! I ordered a BIG Ground Beef Burrito on brown with half the fixings(cheese, guacamole, tomato, rice, bean paste, chow mein, jalapeño, green onions, sour cream, little hot sauce). I think I waited about 15 minutes and I blazed back to work. When I got to my desk, I was really excited to get down and bite. After the first few bites, I thought it was okay… but then when I got the middle where all the ingredients were mixing in harmony and whoa… totally delicious burrito! It was amazing and I loved it. Lunch was a complete success. My order was so heavy and packing that I didn’t even finish it. It had to be a pound or more of food. Totally raving about how delicious it was. Most definitely am a fan of this place and would for sure return. You go in hungry come back absolutely stuffed! Thank you, Fat Bastard Burrito!!!

What can I say this place makes some awesome burritos. I ordered the sweet Thai chicken burrito, one of their specials. I wasn’t expecting too much from it cause you don’t normally put sweet Thai in a burrito but the first bite was an explosion of awesomely good flavours. You get all the good flavours you’d expect from the burrito but then the Thai sauce gives it that nice kick of sweet and spice. The only problem I had was that there was not too many condiments to add into the burrito unlike other burrito places. But other then that the meal was splendid. From outside you’d think the place doesn’t get to much business cause of how unappealing it looks. But you just have to focus on what’s on the inside and you’ll see the beauty that it beholds. The inside had a nice modern look to it and made it feel like a fun place to be. But don’t stay too long, once I stepped in the line just got longer and longer. No complaints on the service. Great job, was easy, fast and fun building my burrito. All in all the place was awesome and I will most likely revisit in the next week.

I can’t edit the caption on my pics the first one is actually a specialty buttered chicken burrito big size(8.99) and the battered fish burrito is the lil size(7.99) The battered fish burrito was delicious! Freshly fried fish, a bit crunchy and soft on the in side. The lil size is good for a single person, go for the huge size(not big size) for sharing. I tried the hubby’s buttered chicken(grilled) and it was good and he agreed, and would get the fish also next time. I really like the many items you can put in the burrito, especially the noodles, chips, guacamole(no extra charge) etc. They grill it really nice and crunchy on the shell. Try the packaged chips on the rack, the black package(i think it habernaro) one is super spicy! I can probably only eat 3 and I would have to stop haha. The parking lot here is horrible! there is always cars stuck at the enternece coming from all directions. They need more locations in the GTA added: so we came back and shared the HUGE buttered fish and it was fully loaded and delicious!
