I try to not go to the same restaurant twice in nyc, I've been here 3 separate times already. The perfect hungover food and exactly what you want when you wake up famished. Every bite was full, with balanced flavors and textures. I wasn't just getting eggs, or tater tots or chorizo, I was getting all of the fillings in each bite. For me, a good breakfast burrito means you can barely taste the tortilla, and this didn't disappoint. Sooooooooooo good read more

I'm renaming this place Best Damn Juice and Smoothie! I'm obsessed with their drinks -- super fresh, perfect combos. My fav is the Morning Buzz and Can I Get Immunity. Yes the burritos are great too: I've tried Chori and Cali so far and both didn't disappoint. I love that they have a protein heavy options. The portions are perfectly massive (at least for me) and they do a good job balancing the ingredients inside so every bite is just right. Freaking gem of a place. My brunch go to read more

1) Slowest service of all time. Especially when there's no one in there. The employees have no urgency and it's an overpriced average burrito. 2) Def not the best breakfast burrito . Don't even need to explain further. like... Unbelievably overrated. Portions are off, and you'd expect way more from a place that literally has a name like that. read more

Always a fan of breakfast burrito and this is a phenomenal spot if you're looking for something to carry you through the day. Full of protein and lots of flavor, it was great. I just wish they added a little more bacon to mine. I felt like it was lots of potatoes. read more

We were craving breakfast burritos on a recent weekend morning so decided to try this new spot in the East Village. There's about a dozen items on the menu: burritos, chilaquiles, sides and juices. Plus coffee drinks. We ordered La Neta which was filled with over easy eggs, nueske's bacon, tater tots, avocado, cheddar, and crema. Also got the Chori which was filled with chorizo, tater tots, scrambled eggs, cheese. La Neta was the better of the two and worth ordering again. The ingredients worked together and the eggs weren't overcooked. Chori was a bit too greasy for me from the chorizo. The sauces complemented the burritos well. Solid burrito spot! read more

Must try: La Neta Love breakfast burritos! La Neta has bacon, avocado and tater tots! So delicious but portion size is a bit smaller. Would love to go back and try their other breakfast burritos! Pass on the carne asada. The guacamole is delicious but the carne asada has this roasted, almost burned taste to it. That is why they advertise as the best breakfast burrito place haha Service is great even during their $5 deal with the crazy lines. Workers are nice with good energy. read more

HONESTLY SOOOOOO YUMMY!! From opening week and it was $5. Also didn't wait in line because it was first day so service was good LOL. Got the Le nata. The egg was flavorful because it was over easy instead of scrambled like most other breakfast burritos. The bacon was super flavorful and crispy ish as well- lots of good flavors. Potatoes were also crispy and added good texture. seemed more like fries than tots but idk. Avocado also added a lot of varied texture and flavor!!! Maybe not a huge fan of the base salsa. But would love to try other salsas there. Also the tortilla was fine but son del north tortilla is def better. I will say the burrito itself was great but it was def on the smaller side. Worth it for $5 but at the original price of 12-14? Idk. I also really wanted to try the Cali burrito but it seems that everyone has mixed reviews on that one so def rec the la neta!!! read more

East Village opening week, with $5 burritos offered until 9/30 (max 2 per customer during promo). Monday morning, line was already steady by the time I arrived. Super friendly, personable, helpful staff at the register. Ordered the Chavela (scrambled eggs, bacon, black beans, cheddar, potatoes, avocado... they were out of the pico de gallo that it comes with... and I ordered it without the sausage). Burritos come with a choice of one of their 8 sauces, but they were out of 5 (haven't been able to restock and keep up with the demand since they opened). It is a great burrito, packed with quality ingredients ... bacon cooked perfect for my preference... potatoes needed a little flavor and cooked slightly longer to make them more tender. After 9/30, full prices range from $12.50.$15.50, plus tax. I would definitely come back again. They have five different burritos, plus you can customize them. Loved the Chavela and I would order it again... but also want to try a couple of the others. I noticed the patrons waiting for food seemed to be in a good mood and overheard more than one group saying that they were back again , waiting on line again, because they really liked the food. "BEST" might warrant some criticism... IMO, it's yummy and a fair price for what they provide. Small place, white walls, looks new, but could use a little ambiance/charm. Approximately 6 tables plus seats in the window area. I was able to share a table with someone while they were waiting for their order. Unsolicited recommendation for the owners/managers: One of the staff came out occasionally to warn the people on line "if you got places to be, it's worth considering, it will take about 30-45 minutes after you order to get your food"... while i DEFINITELY appreciate the transparency, the messaging could have been more welcoming (ie. "we are so happy you're here, it's worth the wait... please be aware that each order is custom made and will take 30-45 minutes due to the long line). Congrats on your opening, look forward to returning. read more

Happy to see a new location of this popular burrito spot! For opening week they're offering $5 burritos (limit 2) until end of September. I came on opening Friday at lunchtime and waited 30 minutes to order. Only when we were pretty close to the front of the line were we told that the wait after order to get the food would be another 1.5 hours. Totally understand the opening week special craze, but waiting 2 hours for a couple burritos is insane. They also couldn't take phone numbers so there was no text available when the order was ready - either resulting in you showing up before your food is ready, or your order having sat there losing freshness for a while. ...That being said, I fortunately live close enough that I could come back without a ton of disruption to my day. A small gripe I had with the setup is that they only have one menu board inside and it's directly behind the cash register - so you can't really see the sauce options until you're at the counter. We placed two separate orders (La Neta and Cali) and came back after 1h. In one order, the burritos had been sitting there long enough that they were already cold - as you can see in the picture, it was also pretty empty at the end (tortilla with no filling). There was an issue with the other order, and it actually took a bit over the 1.5h. They also offer juices, smoothies, coffee / tea, and churros. There are a few tables inside, but it's a pretty small space so I wouldn't necessarily plan on getting a table. The service was all super nice though and they were all doing their best to keep up! Tl;dr - it's a fine burrito, but you should eat it fresh, and I would definitely wait until the hype dies down to come try it. I would've given it 4 stars but docked one because of the wait - no burrito is worth over 2h. read more

Unfortunately was really hoping this would be the best damn burrito but it fell below my expectations. I ordered off Uber Eats and it lets you choose how you want your eggs cooked. I chose soft scrambled but got overcooked. The tater tots and fresh tortilla were really good however just felt it was missing something flavour wise. read more

Absolutely fire breakfast burritos like they really live up to their name. Got the La Neta and every ingredient was the perfect ratio and nothing overpowered. So so good i'm still thinking about it. Also got the chili aioli on the side and it was flames. Wait was a bit long because of popularity but worth it imo read more

Was recommended to this place by tiktok. And when I think about it, New York does not have any good breakfast burrito places, so I was really excited to try this place, especially since it's called the "best damn breakfast burrito" lol. We got there early, so we beat the crowds, but I know a line starts out the door around 11am. We ordered the Chavela. Took a minute to come out, but they are really making everything fresh and made to order. The burrito from first glance is large and hefty! Definitely worth the 14 dollar price. The burrito is pretty good and filling. Not sure if it's best, I'm interested to try their competitor Son del north, but I would definitely come back. read more

Solid breakfast burrito, but certainly not the best damn one I've had. That being said, the name is helpful. If I'm ever craving a breakfast burrito, it's easier to remember this place is available. They've got smoothies available as well. read more

"Best damn breakfast burrito" is such a bold phrase/statement and NYC is not known for the burrito scene. We ordered: Cali (carne asada, cheddar, guacamole, french fries, crema) Chavela (scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, cheddar, black beans, avocado, home potatoes, pico de gallo) The wait as everyone will probably callout was/is horrendous due to their $5 opening week promo which nowadays-what can you even get for $5? The burritos aren't anything special; the size is standard, fillings are there but not with an exorbitant amount-kind of dry as well, the side sauce is well side sauce. I can't imagine how empty this place will be when they start charging people the actual prices i.e. $13-$16. read more

Newly opened , I caught word of a $5 grand opening special so I decided it would be a good chance to check out this place with alvery low risk. One thing about it me,I don't hesitate to jump on a price special. However I foolishly forgot that it was TikTok that I'd seen it on and neglected to take into consideration that there would be lines. I got there and about 10 people were lined up ahead of me. I decided to stay and prayed that I would not be caught on one of those "viral line videos ' . One of the staff members soon walked along the line letting customers know it would be about 30 mins on line and then additional time to prepare the orders. I had already invested 10 mins and the frugality of the deal committed my stay. I did appreciate that he gave a fair estimate and shared some insight. I had my order in mind and since there was a 2 burrito maximum for the special, I figured it was not too much of a big deal to wait . As I waited the line behind me grew longer and longer . The worker made the announcement a couple more times but no one left . All together I waited about 22 mins on line and after I ordered no more that 5 mins . I grabbed a vacant spot and got to chatting with some others at the table . After all we had self succumbed to the wait. Some said it was their 3rd and 4th time at the restaurant and the line varies. Ok time to see what the hype was about. I got the Cali ,it was the most expensive on the menu at $15.50 . If I endured the wait I was absolutely getting these bang for my time. This one has Carne asada steak , cheddar, guacamole, French fries and crema. You get a choice of one sauce but can purchase additional ones. I got the citrus habanero. Ingredients were fresh, the burrito was a good size. Flavor was good. Was it the Best Damn Burrito? umm nope . The citrus habanero sauce however was slamming, very good , like I could drink a cup of it. I think I'd eat this again for $10 max. For a price point of $15.50 that burrito would have to level a few escalators up (like Broadway Junction escalators) . I didn't regret waiting (although lines are my nemesis) . The place is cute, (they have a bathroom),the ingredients are quality and the staff seems experienced and friendly. Even in a high pressure situation, they managed the line and the crowd skillfully. Overall it was a pleasant experience. Eventually the lines will fizzle but the customers will stay steady. They do have very fresh ingredients and specialty juices/smoothies. Churros too. read more

The food was decent but not quite what I was expecting. Good size burrito just not enough flavor for me

I got the chorizo burrito - I wasn't quite sure what made this burrito stand out from any other breakfast burrito. It was thick and had a chewy tortilla, which were both great. The filling, however, was heavily dependent on the salsa. I got the pico and the salsa verde. The pico was very fresh and more flavorful than the salsa verde. read more

((4.5 stars)) it's funny that the search for "the best" often compromises "the why"(or more simply the thoughts behind why you enjoyed the food). noticed this frequently in reviews, social media, etc. about anything: people are too often forming the narrative of the review before they actually formulate a thought or thoughts about why they did or did not like the meal... and there's more to the meal than just what other people think about the food. kinda crazy that the more accurate and precise we can become with recording an experience the less genuine the record could be. "burrito" might mean "little donkey" (espanol) but to me it's always like a tortilla-wrapped package filled with mystery, while you might have an idea of what it is (because you ordered it duh), but the anticipation is in each bite ending the "surprise" but also kinda starting a new one before the next. the "actual surprise" might also be the amount of thought, effort, creativity, etc. it takes to make the surprise. and that's why I sorta ignored all the reviews, etc. i consumed about the "Best Damn Breakfast Burrito" before eating there. so i ordered the Chavela burrito via a food app for pickup at their East Village location. got their a little bit early and gave them the heads-up about the order. the manager, i think, checked on my order and gave me the nod that it would be ready soon. the space is very casual in a good way--clean, organized, and modern-retro but still feels lived-in almost like grandma's kitchen. the space has a several tables and seats spaced out on one side of the burrito-ry and there's some seating at the front window ledge. color me surprised because every time i walked by, there was a crazy line so I just assumed it was just a small place with an order counter...but it's not...assumptions, i tell you. there's the scent of fresh fruit, here because SURPRISE--they make fresh juices and smoothies...which is a nice touch...and there was a staffer here peeling, cutting, and juicing while i waited. btw, there's a restroom here which is often a casualty in small spaced eateries in NYC. while it's casual here, the burritos are NOT fast-casual as they are more or less made from scratch hence the longer wait which to me is worth the wait. other things I noticed was a waster dispenser set on one of the counters (friendly gesture) but they even placed a container on the floor, underneath...to catch any splashed or careless pours...again, the small details have thought and effort behind them here. anyway, once my order was up, they walked it over to me as they did for other people (as oppose to shouting out a name and number for people to rush the counter)--again, the details matter and count. the order was wrapped and bagged neatly. so what is the Chavela burrito? scrambled eggs, black beans, home potatoes, Pico De Gallo, avocado, bacon, sausage, and cheddar cheese in a gluten-free cassava tortilla. much like the actual eatery, the burrito exhibit a lot of thought and effort behind each ingredient...the scrambled eggs are silky and smooth; the black beans are meaty and soak in the flavor (and they are not MUSHY!); the potatoes are chunky and taste starchy pan-cooked (also, not mushy); the pico is tangy, fresh, and has that little bit of spicy heat (i think bc i couldn't what else might have a jalapeño/serrano touch); the avocado pieces are rich and smooth and provide a nice cool flavor in-between the savory ingredients; the bacon is high quality as it's not overly salty but has that smoky savoriness we come to associate the thin fried strips; the sausage is meaty but not chewy and punches up the savory flavors; and of course, the cheese is melty and smooth providing that fatty richness without overpowering other burrito ingredients. the thought put into the quality and quantity of ingredients show themselves in each bite as you can taste each one and each builds on each other from first bite to last to give you a wide range of breakfast flavors and savoriness without erring on one end more than the other. a lot of people comment on the burrito's size but I'll counter the quality and proportion of ingredients makes for a filling and enjoyable burrito feast. these burritos are all about tasting the ingredients not fillers (like rice, sour cream, or mushy cheap ingredients) because there are plenty of places that serve over-stuffed filler burritos in NYC and beyond. I'd also point out that quality calories last longer than ones that are made up with filler calories. the gluten-free tortillas hold firm and tight and don't go soft while holding together 8+ ingredients...they strong! overall, the Chavela is a must-order and if you're not ordering this burrito, then i question your burrito judgement and prowess! almost forgot--each burrito comes with a dipping sauce. the burritos don't need it but who can decline a tasty garlic aioli (they have other sauces, too). read more

This is myyyy kind of breakfast burrito omg. If you also love crunchy potatoes in your burrito, this is your place!

I want to try the carne asada burrito next! read more

I waited 50 minutes for a very mid burrito. When I ordered, the cashier told me it would take 15 minutes cool no prob. After 25 minutes, I checked in and was told "10 more minutes." Another 15 minutes passed, and when I asked again, what seemed like the manager came out of the kitchen and snapped at me, saying there were too many tickets to even check. I understand places get busy, but I had already been waiting longer than anyone else. When I finally got my food, it wasn't even the right order and the burrito was missing beans, sausage, and pico... like, what? Safe to say I won't be back. read more

It's worth the hype. La Neta was so good, will be coming back for that one but I also want to try the chorizo burrito. The avocado sauce / salsa was yum.

I was also an opening week patron/victim for their $5 opening week promo. Social media was effective. I came Friday. After 20 minutes of little progress on a massive line, we were told of an hour wait after ordering. I returned Sunday at 7:20 AM and wondered why I was first. The 7:30 opening is 8 AM weekends. No signage anywhere on the premises. Design is cold, spare and minimalist. A hardwood bench along a wall, beechwood stools and tables. Tables are narrow and fixed to the floor, so I couldn't get the wide end. I had two Cali burritos. No avocado salsa somehow, so I had garlic aioli. Too spicy for me. The burritos were surprisingly lukewarm as they were just made. The carne asada was okay. A bit of stringiness in both. I couldn't detect any cheddar and just a hint of guac. Maybe some crema. The two fries in each were nondescript. The ends were just like eating bread. Cashier was friendly. They ask for first name. Unless yours is rare, also the first letter of last name. Bathroom was clean and new. Cali was fine at promo prices, but not at $15.50, which is currently an Outback meal. read more

honestly top 5 breakfast burrito I've ever had, even by California standards. La Neta was amazing, hope to try the others

They need a bigger kitchen. Wait is literally like an hour if they're busy and they will also stop taking orders if they get too busy. Mobile app has some bugs / missing items. Chilaquiles were spicy. Burrito was good but not really special and not worth the wait. I guess in NYC it might be the best breakfast burrito place though. If the wait was fixed I'd go back. Nice staff but overloaded. They need a bigger place and more staff. read more
