I like the laid-back ambiance of this place, nice place to hangout and drink with some friends inside or outside. Definitely more of a relaxed vibe, I wouldn't go here for a date night or anything. Our server was great, he was super attentive and the food came out quickly! The food was pretty good, not the best Mexican food, but good quick options to have with some drinks. The empanadas were to die for tho, the churros were also delicious! read more

I have loved Burrito Bar for the better part of a decade. Not only are the staff and owner very welcoming but the atmosphere has always been amazing. You have to try the Maui Wowie cocktail, their strong Frozen Margaritas, and whatever the bartender is making special that day. The Fajitas and Rice Balls are a must, and never skip a Chimied Burrito. Highly recommend. read more

Everything here from the food, staff, and the lively, colorful regulars are top notch! I've come here from time to time and it's never a regular dining experience; there is always something fun and exciting going on! Between the live bands and karaoke nights, it has an excellent balance of a family friendly environment and night life! I would recommend this place to anyone read more

get a chimmied burrito and a maui wowie. nothing better. bartenders are funny and great service

We came in for Mother's Day with a party of 8 with reservations; we arrived a little early and were sat upstairs almost immediately. It took about 10 minutes for our waiter to come over with water and chips, but did not return for another 20 minutes to take our drink order. When my mother in law paused to remind herself of which appetizers to order, he decided to leave and not return to take the order until he came back with our drinks; I had ordered a frozen margarita which by the time it had reached our table was watered down. We asked our waiter multiple times for more water and chips, but took exceptionally long to arrive. Our appetizers arrived with our meal, and one appetizer came out while our meals were already being eaten which I find to be a little ridiculous. I had asked for my burger without a bun but received my order with a bun; any specification for our meals were either ignored or forgotten. Our waiter announced that the kitchen was cooking items "in order" due to Mother's Day and them being busy, however only one other table was sat after us and all other tables were empty. We also noticed that the more we reminded our server of our requests or forgotten items he became more flustered (e.g. slamming drinks down and only giving one napkin when we asked for more). It took our food over an hour to arrive and we were there for over two hours which would have been okay if the service was better, the food was just okay but filling and offering a succulent for mothers was a nice touch. read more

I came here last night at around 10 pm for a quick bite to eat. I ordered the steak burrito, at first I thought it was small but once I ate it I realized how filling it was!! I was so full after and it was so so delicious. The steak was cooked to perfection and I loved the rice and beans. I asked to be seated upstairs since downstairs was more of a bar scene with loud people and they were accommodating. This restaurant is gorgeous inside as well!! Friendly staff too. Service was a little slow though. Thank you for the delicious food! read more

The burritos from this restaurant are amazing. I can't imagine a much more amazing place.

We LOVE BURRITO BAR!! We order take out at least once a week!! The owner is insanely attentive! Always tells us to order our nachos at just the right time so they are perfectly crisp and the cheese is super melty!! The steak in the quesadillas is so flavorful and my favorite!! Unlike anywhere else!! The sliders are my most favorite BURGERS on the island and it's a Mexican restaurant?!?! We love the shrimp tacos, garlic shrimp OMG!! We go as a family once a week and the servers are ALWAYS so attentive and friendly!! Margaritas are no joke!! My families Favorite Mexican restaurant!! read more

I came here for a private event. We were outside in the tent so I don't have too many details about the inside. I know there is a bar and seating area. There is also a large outdoor seating area. Right now it is decorated for Halloween. The service was good. All of the good was very good but not everything was from their normal menu because it was an event. The steak and chicken quesadillas had lots of flavor. The quesadillas were packed with chicken and cheese. I would definitely one back for dinner and drinks. read more

To start off the drinks are great the bartenders are awesome. But I personally don't eat here the food doesn't taste right. Alot of people say the same. I wish their food was better. I usually go have a few drinks and eat else where. read more

I stumbled on Burrito Bar one day 5 years after going to the beach looking for a fun place. I've been going there every since, bring friends and family. This place is unique. It's a house with vibrant colors and a nice seating area outside. Inside you have the bar area in the first floor with TVs to watch games. Upstairs is the restaurant seating which is more quieter. The decor is versatile. The service is quick and friendly. The owners are very cool. The woman who I believe is one of the owners remembered my wife and I and was so cool. The crispy shrimp tacos are my favorite along with the Fire appetizer. The steak quesadillas has skirt steak which is a plus. I like a margarita but their frozen Sangarita is awesome. Definitely a place I frequent often for a fun relaxing time. read more

One of the best burrito spots on the island! Very big portions, very good service and very good appetizers. I would go as far as to say it's better than hobrah across the street. read more

I had food delivered. It was on time and delicious. The shrimp empanada was great. I also tried the 3 sampler of taco, burrito and had refried beans and rice. All was great read more

Really lady? You got footage or audio to prove what you're saying? What don't you try eating what I ordered and tell me I wouldn't have had a better meal at Burgher King. And you're lucky I paid that $60 bill. FYI the drinks were ok. The service great but if I were Mexican I would be embarrassed to work there. When was the last time you checked how much drinking of the alcohol your guy Chris does "For Free" read more

My boyfriend and I visited Burrito Bar on the island for our second time, but this time we went on a Saturday evening. The restaurant was pretty busy and lively, and we chose to sit upstairs. We were greeted with complimentary chips and salsa and for appetizers, we ordered the mini chimis and we both got quesadillas for our entree. I chose the spinach and mushroom quesadilla and he got the buffalo chicken quesadilla. The quesadillas were nicely presented on our respective plates with three dips and a small side salad. The guac was very refreshing and to be honest, the best part of our meal. Although I am a mushroom lover, I found my quesadilla to be quite bland and I struggled to finish it all. My boyfriend had the same sentiments about his buffalo chicken quesadilla. Our mini chimis weren't that bad, but our overall experience at Burrito Bar was a bit disappointing. read more

The food here is amazing, a few favorites are the Light My Fire burrito, the Mexican Flag, and the Fire dish. The wait staff is great and the service is pretty speedy as well.

Burrito bar not only always has stellar service but stellar food. I'm obsessed with coming here. the street corn nachos are unlike anything I have ever had at any tex mex resurant. I love it here and I hope it's here for many generations to come. read more

Came here yesterday. It started to rain, but we sat outside under a large tent and the proprietors couldn't have been more accommodating. They sat our two parties of 14 and 8 people. The wait staff was friendly, attentive, and responsive. Reasonably priced, for delicious food. Highly recommend, and will be back again soon. read more

First .. be weary of the patrons. The place itself is cool and laid back. Fun outside games are available. The food was good. The drinks are well made. I preferred the frozen vs the on the rocks drinks. Downfall is the bathroom! Only one stall for everyone. The parking is on a side street. read more

I have been going to the Burrito Bar for years. The food, drinks and service are always amazing. Recently I had my birthday party there and every accommodation was met with such care and consideration. Kim is a wonderful owner and I cannot recommend this place enough! read more

Kim even recommended a dj and he was wonderful. my daughter said best party ever!!! highly recommend the burrito bar!! read more

I can't believe I've been a regular off and on here for as many years as I have and never left them a review. I enjoy a romantic brunch or early dinner date with the Mr. here and we also visit with the full family. The drinks are good, huge selection. Some of my favorite foods are the wings, nice and crispy, they never disappoint. And also "fire" bacon wrapped shrimp. The fajitas and all the fishes are great. And finish the meal off with a Mexican coffee. I'd have to say this place both when indoors was a thing, and their outside yard is a comfortable casual environment. Somehow they always have my favorite music playing. This place is my true zen zone. Lol read more

Good customer service and fast. Ambience is very American and New Yorker. Never seen such design and ambience before. Food tasted good and average. We all ordered tacos. read more

2 stars for their stiff drinks. Last summer was our last trip to Burrito Bar. It was obvious they changed the cook or recipes or both but the quality/taste of everything we ordered went down the crapper. Ambiance is nice outside in the nice whether, dingy inside. Service is lacking in common sense as far as what should be on the table with your food not later I.e. forks knives spoons ketchup... It's a shame as I used to really enjoy the outside seating with friends and their music, a few drinks in the summer. Hopefully they straighten up. read more

I attended The Burrito Bar yesterday with some coworkers for lunch and I really enjoyed myself. My server was Danny. He was very friendly, professional, and accommodating. He even took a picture of us when we asked which was nice. I enjoyed my food I ordered something I've never had or heard of having before which was the barbecue chicken and apple quesadilla. I also had a side of yellow rice and black beans. It looked a little dry but was actually good and flavorful. I liked that the prices were reasonable. Yes I will be back again! Yes I do recommend this place. Also I noticed a flyer outside for an event for cocktails with your dog. I thought that was great and very unique. read more

This my go spot for good drinks and burritos. They never disappoint. I should've wrote the review years ago. This location has two stories and an outside patio. They play live music on some days. The drinks are everything. When I tell you there Maui Wowie makes you think you are a super Hero lol After two I feel invincible...don't be me! Right after feeling invincible I was knocked out by the punch. I was too lit. Buy it if you dare. I love the Brazilian drink and submarine Burrito. read more

I have to say this place has the worst service of any restaurant I've been to. I have a few terrible stories. One time they served us fries without ketchup and we had to wait like 20 minutes for ketchup and ice cream without a spoon and by the time they got us it, the ice cream melted. The kicker was the time one of the barbacks walked right into me, and I said something akin to excuse me and he turned right around and said "FU." Haha, insanity. read more

The food never disappoints! Excellent flavors and portion sizes. And the casual laid back vibe is plus after a long day. Our server was attentive and checked in on us often but not annoyingly so. 4 stars only because it took a little while to get our food which is not typical so it could have just been an off day. Highly recommend! read more

Long standing staple of the Forest Ave. strip. Cold beer on tap and huge burritos. Come hungry.

Food is really good. Street corn nachos...fire. Prices you may ask.. a little pricey. Staff is cool tho. Drinks are fire.

Came here on a Friday in hopes of a chill happy hour. Didn't get he happy hour prices but definitely stumbled upon one of my new favorite Mexican spots! We started off with drinks. I had the raspberry frozen margarita and my bf had the Brazilian. Very good strong drinks! They provided chips and salsa for free which was very good! The salsa was poppin! The chicken mini chimis were to die for! They came in a cute tostada basket filled with guac and sour cream and they were literal perfection! So flavorful! I had the fish tacos which were hearty, and decent. A little on the dry side but good w the salsa. My bf had the carnitas burrito and it was massive and delicious. The vibe was great! Chill, tropical with plenty of space outside both at the bar area and the dining area! I will def be coming back! read more

I can't believe I'm even writing this. I loved this place, I have been here a handful of times. Today will be my last, I order the "light my fire" burrito and after a few bites I feel something In my mouth other than steak. Luckily I didn't bite down hard or else I would have chipped my tooth, it was a rock. I was shocked, I asked the person I was having dinner if I was seeing things correctly, she confirmed it was a rock. We asked for a manger, our waitress came instead. My burrito was comped, I wasn't going to finish it anyway... but we never spoke to a manager. Im appalled that I found a rock in my burrito and the managements lack of concern. read more

Sarah is a doll! I have been going there for at least 20 years and the quality of the food, drinks and atmosphere are amazing!

Waited an hour and a half for my door dash delivery before it was canceled. Feel bad for the dasher who made multiple attempts to get it. Food has always been mediocre at best. You're out Burrito Bar! read more

Just came back from being seated outdoors; we've been here plenty of times before. As soon as we sit we are told the following:"you have an hour and a 45 minutes to eat and then you have to leave." REALLY! I go out to be served food food in a good atmosphere and enjoy myself; not look at my watch while I'm spending my money. I call over the manager to let her know my thoughts about what we were told (or rather how it was said) and she barely let me get a word out while trying to explain and defend what we were told. Managers should have listening skills. I wanted nothing else but to be heard They make awesome frozen margaritas!!' Second to none. They also make this appetizer called Fire which I could eat everyday. OMG so good. 5 shrimp and cheese stuffed jalapeños wrapped in bacon and then fire roasted. Taco salad with ground beef- the edible taco bowl was sitting in refried beans so the whole thing got super mushy on the bottom. Nachos with chicken were good; all the chicken was on the bottom. Queso Fundido is a large portion of a cheesy bean dip for a very reasonable price. Like I told the manager, after hearing what was said when we were first seated, I'll be thinking twice about going back read more

Very nice and spacious backyard on a beautiful night. Service was spot on. Cocktails were well made. Wifey had a Maui wawi and I had a Fridas revenge. We shared fish tacos and pork burrito. Fish tacos were good and the pork burrito was nice and large with a generous amount of very tender pork. We'll be back! read more

Is it amazing food? No. You go because its a Staten Island staple! It's fun and cute and good to bring kids, too. The waitstaff is always pretty friendly and it has a fun vibe inside. The food is decent. It isn't the best Mexican on the island but the atmosphere makes up for it. Depending on the night that you go it can be pretty loud/noisy so if you're going with kids or a quieter group I would choose a week day night. I think they card some night for the bar area too. read more
