Mr Burrito

Absolutely blown away by the food here at Mr. Burrito during my visit. It was so good that I ate far more than I normally do, and far more than I definitely should have. And I feel zero guilt either, because it all went to supporting a genuine small family business. Ingredients are quality, service is fast, and even the chips they use for the nachos are somehow better than normal. On top of that, they have almost all the Jarritos flavors for sale, to continue to fuel my foreign soda addiction.

This place is just so good. Very top tier Mexican food. I probably ate here more than anywhere else in Ames in my 3 years of living here.

Over the years, the prices have gone up and portion sizes have gone down. Especially with the nachos, which used to be an incredible value, but are now a small fraction of the amount of food they used to dish out. The food is great and people who run it are friendly. I used to be in here at least once a week, but these days I have a hard time justifying the cost. It’s a bummer. I wish them the best.

VERY Good Burrito! Beef, black bean , rice, cheese, lettuce, habernero sauce, onions, cilantro with a can of pepsi was 9ish. Burrito alone was 7 or so... So it has its competitors beat by taste, and value imho... only downside is street parking, a fence to chain bike to, obviously no wifi... outdoor seating too, also 1.50 delivery fee

Mr Burrito is super delicious and authentic Mexican food. I tried the burrito bowl and was not disappointed! The meat, beans, and rice had good flavor and the toppings were very fresh. I also had the horchata as the drink. So good! I will definitely be coming back to try other menu items.
