I really liked their veggie burrito. It was really good. They also had fries and burgers, although they didn’t list that they had them on their menu. I would come here just to buy their salsa — it was HOT! and SPICY! I really liked it. Walked by here the other day — I think its closed! :(

I think the tacos here are totally under rated. Try the fish tacos with the habanero salsa. I’ve had better but not in Arlington.

I had high hopes for this spot since it is close to where I live but was extremely disappointed-I couldn’t even finish my food. The vegetables seemed more like they belonged in a stir fry restaurant and they gave us white rice which is weird since it’s supposed to be a burrito place… Would not go back.

Very good and very affordable. Appropriate portions and fresh lean ingredients. Out Chipotles Chipotle.

This place is great. The food is tasty, healthy, fresh, and good-quality, especially given the $ 5.90 price. Your order is ready fast. The store is clean, modern, and colorful. It has a similar feeling to Five Guys — you choose between taco and burrito, and then you choose from a list of toppings. You can also get burgers there, but I can’t comment since I haven’t tried them. There are a lot of veggie options for the toppings, and the veggies are fresh, clean, and good-quality. The steak is good-quality, too. Haven’t tried the chicken. They have a big selection of bottled juice, soda, and iced tea, as well as a standard fountain. I often see joggers or cyclists in there. It’s a great spot for a quick, cheap meal that keeps you feeling good.

3.5 Stars Overall I like supporting local businesses over chains usually. This place is hit and miss though. The thing about this place is you have to know what to get. Get the TACOS not the Burrito. If you want a Burrito go to Chipotle. They load up their tacos, and they’re probably on par taste wise with Chipotle. The burgers are pretty standard and tasty. They also hook up the sauces there which is always good, and there is hardly ever a rush on this place so you can get in and out quickly. I saw someone complaining about the décor of Burro Grill, the set up is still the same from when it was Wasabi Sito, so that’s the reason for that. Treat it like a to go place and it’s fine.

I like this place, it would be like if Chipotle served burgers. The prices are decent and the décor/seating is atrocious! ugh! Definitely not a place to sit, however that’s not really what I’m looking for with burritos. The reason why I would prefer this to Chipotle because it tastes homemade and you get more free sauces. Not a huge difference but when it comes down to tastes I think this is better.

Disappointing. It was just — blah. The burittos are just nothing special at all. I really expected more from the owners of Sushi Zen. Oh, and there is no seating. Get it to go.

Decent prices, but the food was sub par. The dining room is also very small. More than two or three in your party? Plan on take-out. I had three tacos, one of each flavor, as any good reviewer would do. The carnitas was the tastiest of the bunch, but the meat needed to be drained before being plopped in my taco; I was left with a soupy mess covering my other two and the plate. The chicken was pretty decent, but could have used more seasoning. The steak was inconsistent; some bites were good, others flat-out bad. The tacos came with three salsas. A verde, which was pretty tasty, but could use a little more«oomph;» a traditional red, which was average; and a «hot,» which was crazy hot, and I do like spicy food. We also had some chips and guacamole. The chips were stale(drops them from 3 to 2 stars) and the guacamole seemed like the exact same goopy mess they serve at Taco Bell. Pas on the chips and guac. I’d go again, but only if I had to, and I’d only get the carnitas.

Another OK burrito place in the area. Like I said, it’s OK. Grumble, grumble, grumble. Does it satisfy my hunger? Yes. Is it anything to get excited about? No. Blah.

I thought I’d give this place a little love. I live really close to it, and it’s definitely earned a spot in my places-I-can-walk-to-when-I-don’t-want-to-cook-but-am-really-hungry list. While their food does not surpass Chipotle and Baja Fresh, their closest competitors, I think they all sit pretty close to each other(although Chipotle’s carnitas rock). I prefer the steak over the other meats, but what gives this place a special in my heart are the salsas, particularly the salsa verde and the habernero salsa. Tasty, with a good kick to them, they are way better than you would expect from a tiny fast-food joint like this. They should sell that by the pint, I would be there everyday.

3.5 stars. Nice little burrito joint in the shopping center with the Giant/Italian Store. The carnitas was somewhat lacking(I make better at home). The chicken burrito was pretty money though. I recommend the option for fresh cilantro inside the burrito, gives it a nice fresh taste. Not the biggest burritos, I was starving and knocked back 2 in one sitting. Sad to say, but Chipotle is a little bit better. Very odd animé playing in the restaurant… kinda creepy.

I visited this place and expected something along the lines of California Tortilla. After I left, I certainly prefer the latter. Burro Grill didn’t get my order right(wasn’t complicated). Same thing for one of the other two people I went there with. The food is what you’d expect from a fast food Mexican place. Everything is priced at $ 6.50 as I recall so not a great value. The menu as well as the seating is limited. I didn’t notice any hot sauces to add to my burrito. I’ll pass on this one.

The guacamole was fresh, but I didnt get very much chicken in my chicken fajita bowl. I would probably go again once they’ve gotten some of the kinks out of opening a new business. When I went they were offering free guac and salsa. Definitely nice to have a burrito spot in North Arlington, sadly I wish it were a Chipotle.

My dreams have come true. There is finally a burrito place in my neighborhood! The food is tasty. The prices are reasonable. The service is friendly. The Habanero salsa lit me up BIG time. I’m not sure what the Manga screens are all about, but at this point I don’t care. Welcome too the neighborhood Burro Grill!
