“Our group had a cross of everything from steak/chicken/ground beef and Lengua, the rice n beans had a "reminds me of home" taste”
Stopped by El Burrito Mexicano after a game, grabbed a steak burrito and a Coke, ran me about $12.
"Best burrito in town" That is a false statement. I believe they're using flank steak and not arrachera.
This food is amazing if your drunk and incoherent.

I cannot comment - enough - about how good these burritos are - This establish advertises exactly what it is and gives you just that. I will continue to walk - miles - for El Mexicano Burrito and you should, too! But their pickled jalapeños are the extra bombs! Hidden gem in Wrigleyville that I keep telling everyone about - real talks. Thanks guys 🌻

“The best tacos I have ever had.”
The best tacos I have ever had. Also really kind personal who has been welcoming and gave nice suggestions. At the end I ordered el pastor and longua, and I am already missing them. They also bring nachos and dip for free to accompany the order Great value

“I enjoyed the food for sure.”
I enjoyed the food for sure. They bought out chips and 3 types of salsa. They were all good. I ordered a taco dinner. Two steak and 1 chorizo. Plate come with rice and beans also. Very good. I saw many options on their menu so I'm sure you can find a meal that will work for you.

“Food and service was great.”
Food and service was great. Vegetarian Burrito was a solid 9/10. Hit the spot for late night cravings. The beans and rice were fresh and not too oily. The tomatoes and lettuce were crisp and fresh. Salsa platter was very authentic. Chips were crispy and not too oily. The front cashier was friendly and asked if I wanted everything on my vegetarian burrito. They honored my request to remove the cheese and sour cream to make it a plant-based vegan burrito. I cannot confirm if the beans were made with lard of the rice was make with chicken bullion though, for true vegans. Although it did not taste like it had lard in the beans. The general restaurant was clean, although the bathroom could use a little freshening up. Overall a great experience I highly recommend this authentic Mexican food that has healthy vegan burrito option. Burrito would have been 10/10 if they added a couple mushrooms in there. I’d pay another $2 for this add-on.

Of all the small, humble, big and fancy Mexican restaurants in this area, I dare to say this is the closest it gets to the actual taste of a nice taco in the streets of Mexico City. The service is also pretty good for what it is. Highly recommended!
