    Jalisco style street tacos with steak, generous portion of guacamole & 2 different salsas.
    Surelyne L.

    Definitely doesn't look much when you walk by downtown Elizabeth City but don't let that fool you. The burritos are ginormous and really good! Decided to try their Jalisco style tacos with steak on this visit. The tacos were flour tortillas with a bed of cilantro lime rice topped with sliced steak and pico de gallo. It was a generous serving with 3 tacos filled with generous quantities of filling. The only disappointment was that the steak was on the salty side. I also got 2 different salsas...a lighter tomatillo based one and a brighter red one that was supposed to be very spicy. Honestly neither was that spicy to me. I also ordered some guacamole & chips. That too was a generous portion & very fresh. Highly recommend if you're visiting Elizabeth City!

    First time here and not the last time! Awesome food! You have the option of corn or flour tortillas! But in my opinion corn is the way to go! They had so many choices I wanted to try! Which means I will be a frequent customer! What we ordered was very delicious! My taste buds were reminded of my taco eats when I was in Mexico City! The Barbacoa taco is something you need to devour. You can order to go. Inside dining and outdoor seating available. Staff was very attentive when we were there. They serve bottle beers in a coozie! They have merchandise available. Tshirts. Stickers. Hats and more! Full bar service. And they have street parking available. Follow big boss burrito on social media to find out when their block parties are! They block off the whole street to enjoy tacos, burritos and more!

    We came to Elizabeth City and the surrounding area in a whim. We stopped at Big Boss for lunch with the kiddos. They were great. My daughters steak on her taco lacked flavor and it was a little dry. I enjoyed my Barbacoca tacos. Sadly they were out of the street corn when we visited. The OMG Nachos were pretty good as well. Very filling. Pricy. The staff was amazing! They were so helpful when recommending menu items to us. Overall it was a nice stop while visiting EC.

    Made a drive from Moyock to Elizabeth City and saw a cool little sign that grabbed our attention. Big boss burritos definitely has earned its name in my books as I plan to drive back again and try the rest of their food. Starting from the service; Olivia was so sweet and made sure we were taken care of, gave me a recommendation when I was in between two dishes. She recommended the OMG fries and they definitely stood by their name. I saw online they had Micheladas and coming from San Diego I can be picky about them and it was perfectly mixed! The wife got a Big Boss Burrito (B.B.B) she said it was delicious! And had a side of a Margarita of course. The restaurant was clean and welcoming, they also have an outside area that still in work but definitely will bring more people. we came with our 3 yr old and she was occupied with the cool Hopscotch by the front door! Want to try something new definitely stop by

    Big box of tacos!

    We went up to Blue 42's for dinner and drinks. Big Boss Burrito was up there with their food truck. It was delicious! We had tuna tacos, chicken barbacoa tacos, the big boss burrito, and guacamole. The chicken barbacoa and the big boss burrito were our favorites. The people were amazing as well. Very friendly!

    The quality of authentic Mexican cuisine that you receive is unmatched. You get so much food for so little, and the staff are beyond amazing and attentive. I love this place and I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for great quality and just amazing food. The atmosphere is so cute and high desirable. It's family friendly and a nice restaurant tucked away in the downtown area of Elizabeth City. One of the best restaurants I've ever been to, and as a foody, I've been a lot of places. This restaurant has set a standard that many restaurants need to try and get to.

    Popeyes Burrito
    Jon R.

    Popeye Burrito was pure awesomeness in a flour tortilla. Very tasty and flavorful and as big as my head. I thought it was a big eater but this is going to be two meals for me. Ate on the outdoor patio which was nice and there's even a place for your dogs

    Thank you for visiting North River Crossing! One of the beat meals I have had in a while - the food was hot, flavorful and massive in portion. Hope you come back soon!

    Jalisco tacos
    Seapod A.

    Another fantastic meal! This time I ordered the Jalisco taco dish and they tasted great. The steak was perfectly seasoned and quite tender. The amount of food was spot on and quite filling. Service was great as usual, love this place.

    ¡¡Burrito Loco!!
    Tim M.

    Without question the best burrito ever. ¡¡Mas mejor que todos!!! I've developed an addiction... I can't get enough. It's perfectly seasoned, flavorful, and as big as a football !! And the staff are super nice. Makes going in a pleasant experience.

    "Team BIG Boss" are burrito masters ...

    Definetly the top Mexican diner in town. Food comes fast and flavorful…read more My first time going was actually very disappointing, got the tropical fajitas because I've had it at other places and usually love it, but this one was just not very flavorful and the ingredients weren't combined well (loved the half-pineapple surging plate though, very fun). Friends kept saying I just got unlucky and that I need to go back and try something else and they were absolutely right! My next trip I wanted something acidic and bright with a meat and veggie presence instead of the typical rice, beans, and a dab of some ground beef or chicken. Almost settled for something like that but then saw the Burrito Ranchito and it was INCREDIBLE. Pico, avocado, steak, and onions were exactly what I wanted that night and it came out just as delicious as I was expecting. Tried it a couple times since, including one trip where we all ordered the California Burrito partly because it was funny and partly because it was a great price for a standard Mexican grill plate. Despite getting it for budget and reliability, we all still really loved it.

There were too many dishes that enticed me so, with the servers help I settled on the Pollo Chipotle. She picked a winner! The chicken was nicely spiced and the sauce was delicious. I did think that the portion of refried beans and rice was skimpy. To me, the salsa was so-so. Overall, a great experience!

The building could use some improvements but it is nice and cozy. The menu compared to authentic Mexican restaurants is very different. Especially if you're from the southwest border or Hispanic. We have come here a couple times in the last couple years and it is okay. Not very flavorful and a bit bland. Large portions if you love rice and beans and salt and pepper. As for the tacos it was our first time coming here for that on taco Tuesday. We wanted to try their $1 tacos. And I must say you get what you pay for LOL It is like a taco out of a box and if you enjoy that for a $1 with no flavor come here. However you will not find flavor or options here. We ordered 12 tacos. All that was available was ground beef and shredded chicken. And it was just that with some bland cheese and lettuce on cold tortillas. So, if you're looking for authentic tacos this is not the place to explore. But if your looking for below basic and have no expectations, enjoy some salt and pepper, and saving money it's worth a shot. We were able to give our leftovers to a homeless person in the area and we then went to plaza azteca to enjoy authentic tacos for taco Tuesday.

And offer a dish that is all protein with no carbs ! That is so hard to find. But not here. Service is always so great. Ambiance is well maintained and comfy with an open space. We look forward to coming here and come too often lol but so worth it on top of having excelling customer service.

    I have never in my life given a one star review, there's always a first I guess…read more First there was almost a fight between an employee and a customer because the customer thought it was ok to curse at the employee. You had patrons feeling very uneasy and then others left. They complained they were short staffed but two men had to talk the lady into leaving the building before the cops were called. We waited in line patiently, the employees were not rude but there are only so many excuses you can give over certain things. The area was nasty, nothing was clean, food everywhere. One employee knocked over drinks in the little fridge in front of the cash register and left it like that. Facial hair was not covered during prep. I did appreciate the man washing his hands before going back to work but I did not appreciate them pulling an already dirty bowl from under the table to mix up a "fresh" batch of white rice.
