★★★★★ 5.0 Josh Hinton · Feb 2026

Super tasty food. Anytime we are in this area we typically choose here to eat over more "formal" sit down places. The staff is usually friendly and the food is great. Chips and salsa come with the meal price and not "extra" like its competitors. My kids love coming here.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Gregory Macdonald · Mar 2026

Had the make your own burrito covered in cheese and hot sauce. Burrito was huge and the ingredients were well distributed, which is a big bonus! Fairly busy but service was quick and friendly.

we were pleasantly surprised by Willys, food was good, a bit pricey for what it is but worth it, loved the lady in the hot station, very friendly and enthusiastic about her job! i hope she is appreciated there, she made us feel very welcomed

★★★★★ 5.0 Jaclyn Brown · Oct 2025

Had a great experience at Willys with friendly staff and amazing food. When I compare my experience at Chipotle and Barberitos, Willy’s always comes out on top. The food is seasoned just right and fresh. The restaurant is clean and the staff look like they are happy to be at work. I recently had surgery so I can never eat all my food and have left overs and everything re-warms well with no issues. I get a chicken bowl with black beans, corn, rice and cheese. A great combo.

This location offers outstanding customer service. The staff members that work here are incredibly compassionate and kind. In particular, Mr. Reggie is an exceptional employee who consistently has a smile on his face, no matter the time of day. He always remembers our order, even on hectic days, and makes sure to greet us with a beaming grin. Every time he serves my husband and I, we are delighted. The staff is what elevates this restaurant above its excellent food.
