Today's brunch was totally on a whim, and we stumbled upon a hidden gem called Burrito Express located in Paso Robles. 4 stars for this review as drink prices were a tad steep. Tucked into the corner of a Starbucks location, this cute little spot is small but super inviting--and definitely lives up to the hype. As soon as we walked in, the place was clean and filled with the delicious smell of spices and fresh food. I ordered the chilaquiles (not listed on the menu, but they'll make it for you with your choice of meat or traditional eggs for the same price). I went with chili verde, and wow--I was not disappointed. It was loaded with meat, sauce, cheese, cilantro, onion, and sour cream. Absolutely worth the $13, and I'd 100% order it again--next time with al pastor! We also tried the chicken enchilada plate ($13), which was just as good. Great flavor, the perfect amount of sauce and cheese, and it came with rice and beans on the side. For drinks, they've got a wide selection, including alcoholic options. I grabbed a Jarritos--just a heads up, they're $3.50 each, a bit pricey, but ice cold and refreshing. Overall, this place was a hit for us. The waitress, Erma, was friendly, polite, and attentive--which, let's be honest, isn't always easy to find. The restaurant is clean, has plenty of seating, and judging by the steady flow of customers, it's definitely no secret anymore! Give it a try and see for yourself--I'm pretty sure you'll love it too. Thanks for reading! Follow me along for more hits and misses. read more

I was shopping in the area and craving some Mexican food. I spotted this place and decided to give it a try. When I entered the staff was friendly and greeted me. I placed a to go order for Asada and Al Pastor tacos. My order was ready pretty quick. The tacos weren't anything special. They were pretty bland and could use more seasoning. The hot sauce had good heat to it for sure. This place is alright if you are in a pinch. I might try them again next time. read more

The food was delicious. The media was very juicy very generous portions. They were quick to get the food ready. The chicken burrito was really good. I would recommend this. I would come back here if I lived in this area too bad they don't have this place in Los Angeles. read more

We came here because of the great reviews and were very surprised by what we got. The beans had a sweet and vinegary taste to them but they were also cold. The rice on the other hand was quite good. The chile verde was spicier then I am used to but I still though it was passable. Everything else we tried was terrible. All the meat in all the tacos no matter what type seemed unseasoned. I don't even think they salted the meat and the tortillas were cold and doughy and bland. We rely on yelp reviews often and we were let down by the ones for Burrito Express. After having visited, it seems now like this is more of a hangout and people enjoy the ambiance a lot more than the food. For take-out, you should definitely pass on this location. read more

Great place for tacos and other Mexican food. Very good prices. Fajitas are very good. The tostada is yummy. Taco Tuesdays are excellent. read more

Conveniently located in the Food For Less plaza, Burrito Express has a broad assortment of Mexican food. I've had amazing chicken tortas in the past so I tried theirs. My only complaint was the bread they used. It was very soft and didn't have enough structure to hold the sandwich together so it was very messy to eat. Overall, not bad. I'd prefer no pinto beans in the sandwich since the beans added fluid to the soggy bread and fresh jalapeños instead of canned. I'll come back and try other menu items. read more

We had people working at our house, so we were looking for a Mexican Restaurant. This place isn't too far from our home and we decided to try it. We both had an excellent meal. My husband had two carne asada soft tacos and I had the taco salad. Both were delicious. The taco salad was so big, we decided next time we come here, we will just buy the taco salad and split it. Great service and the food came out pretty quickly. We will be back. read more

YOU WON'T be disappointed with the food and friendly atmosphere. They have a daily special and TACO TUESDAY!! read more

In the few times I've gone thru Paso Robles I have had food from this spot just once, having ordered an extremely tasty and flavorful chili verde burrito and a drink. I told myself I would come back and try it again before reviewing since I have read other reviews here, but all in all my 1st time here was good, great even. Food was great, a 5/5 both times, granted both times I ordered a burrito -- my 2nd time I asked the male order taker what he recommended, and he chose the al pastor burrito with everything it normally came with, with both red & green sauce. I have to say, the service appears to be quite true to some extent by the reviews as both times I had servers who didn't exactly make ordering easy or efficient due to a slight language barrier; they didn't speak English well, no matter, the order was done regardless... but I did watch a much older caucasian couple struggle to order and politely left. Despite that, the restaurant appeared to serve and have a diverse customer dining here. The staff also immediately took to cleaning the tables after the customers left the building. Points for that. Overall I was very satisfied with both times here. Will be coming back and even recommending to folks to give it a shot. read more

Really good food. No complaints whatsoever. Quick easy and great flavor. I had to laugh when people complain on here about the red hot salsa being to hot. Like if you want tomato paste just ask for ketchup. We will be back for sure! read more

Definitely one of my favorite taco Tuesday places. The tacos were great and had plenty of meat on them. $2 taco definitely worth it. We had the birria, pastor, and asada tacos and they tasted great. The people at the counter where you order were very friendly. You take a seat and they bring your order to you. Looking at the menu it's a reasonable price and we will definitely be back to try more options. read more

Great little hole in the wall, on the east side of Paso. We come here for breakfast burritos after early soccer games. Service is quick, and the burritos are pretty big. We usually get eggs and bacon, but recently I've been loving the machaca burritos. They come with your choice of red or green sauce, but I get an extra portion of red sauce on the side, and it makes me sweat. The ambiance isn't fabulous, a few tables and chairs scattered around, but you can have a beer with your carne asada burrito at lunch, and you won't go broke. read more

Awesome... my family and I go there probably once or twice a month. We had a party of about 30 people and had them cater boy was it good and we had more than enough sides and chips and salsa to around. Irma was great and was much help with what we wanted to order. I highly recommend Burritos Express. read more

Shitty service! They take forever and don't pay attention to what they doing! They don't wash their hands! After they touch the money.

Real deal Mexican! Even the mild salsa ain't mild. Huge portions and beans cooked in lard. This ain't no Chipotle. read more

Normally one of our favorite places but my burrito today was so spicy/HOT I couldn't eat it. When we ordered (IN SPANISH) my husband said "nothing spicy or hot" Total waste of money and it's not cheap My daughter got a birria quesadilla with no onions, full of onion read more

For a place called burrito express they did the burrito name dirty. Potatoes in a burrito is not the same as fries, which is what we got. The hot sauce is face melting hot too so unless you want to scorch your booty hole you should skip it. Lack luster is probably an understatement but it was not something I would recommend. read more

Burrito Express is my go-to place for good Mexican takeout. I grew up around good authentic Mexican food and, I must say, Burrito Express is pretty close to what I am used to eating. Granted it's not exactly like my mama used to make but no one can duplicate your mama's home cooking. Plus their prices and everyday specials are very reasonable. So if you are looking for some good Mexican fast food, this is the place to go. read more

I had been craving a carne asada burrito forever. I made sure to check the reviews and these were mostly positive with a few not so great reviews. Should have trusted those bad reviews. I am not even sure what kind of meat I was given since it was chopped so tiny and so little was in the Burrito. Burrito wasn't flavorful at all either. Seems like maybe this place is for construction workers as they had a bunch of them waiting for orders. $17 for a regular burrito and a drink is a lot for a very sad not flavored burrito. Won't be back. read more

I won't be back. Too bad! I was really hoping I could find a replacement for Senior Sancho's. I had the chilli verde burrito which tastes good but was missing much of the advertised ingredients. I'll keep looking for Mexican cuisine that works for me. read more

We came here after reading the reviews and was not disappointed. Fast friendly service, and food was delicious! Asada Taco salad, bean and cheese burrito, asada burrito, all were amazing. Highly recommend read more

Top notch tacos - they have a pretty sweet deal on taco tuesday. Lots of different meat options. Would recommend you try it out.

The food tastes good and is at a pretty nice price. Just be aware that there is a menu but you have to ask how much everything costs if you walk into the establishment, I saw the prices online, but they are not posted inside the restaurant. I had pastor tacos, chicken burrito and a torta. The tacos were 2.69, burrito was 10.99 and the torta 11.99. Great price for the flavor and portions. The staff were friendly and service was quick. I should have checked the amount of salsa before I left. I asked for verde and was given one small container for the entire order. Before I left the lady told me she put in extra. The extra was one more small container of red salsa. I had enough salsa for the burrito. read more

Great little fast food restaurant with delicious food, and great service. I had a fish taco and a chicken taco while my friend had the queso Birria and a shrimp taco. Everything was good with lots flavor. The tacos were street style, with onions, lots of cilantro (which I love), and a delicious sauce on top. The birria was a nice savory addition I used to dip my chicken taco in. I don't eat beef, but I couldn't resist the consommé. The service was was great and is worth returning to for a quick bite. read more

Breakfast burrito (and I have had a lot) was 10/10. Phenomenal. The spicy salsa was plenty hot, which is a bit unusual for "spicy" sometimes. Get it on the side if you are at all sensitive. The mild salsa was indeed mild with just the right amount of seasoning. Stop yelping and just go here. read more

Friendly customer service, and delicious food, we took our meal to go, but there are plenty of tables to eat inside. I've been wanting to try this place for a while and I'm glad we did. I had the Asada Taco Combo, and my husband had the Carnitas Nachos. We ate every bite. So tasty, and decent portions! We will most definitely be back!! Thank you! read more

Very good spot! They got some really good food and some everyday specials for great deals! Definitely worth it!!! read more

Service was great and food came out fast. I ordered the CA burrito and it was pretty small and was missing sour cream, but honestly I wasn't mad because I went back and ordered 2 pastor tacos because I saw some come out and they looked good and I was still hungry. That spicy salsa is the best salsa I've ever had and the meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Cool specials for every day of the week. Definitely my go to taco spot now. If the menu had prices and the burritos were bigger it'd be 5 stars. read more

Quick, hot, and delicious. Service is friendly. Authentic and affordable. This is a go to breakfast burrito spot. read more

Went here on a whim on a late Wednesday night and was happy they truly were open past 8PM. Ordered a simple chicken burrito and a drink to-go. My order was ready in less than 5 minutes and I was super shocked. The staff were nice and welcoming, the atmosphere of the restaurant seems like a random late night hangout, I noticed the people there didn't have food on the table and thought maybe they were waiting for food or just chillin at the restaurant. The burrito itself was not the best, the salsa and chicken were good but the beans and rice were very lackluster and bland. The burrito barely had any cheese which was disappointing. The fountain soda wasn't good either, just order a jarrito from the fridge they have close to the counter. read more

I ordered 1 taco al pastor, I'm pretty sure it was around $2.69 and came with salsa verde and various toppings. I talked to the owner, Porfirio, and he just opened a few weeks ago, and a sister restaurant has been in Atascadero for a couple of years. Prices are low for the central coast, with most of the main entrees being $10.99. There are daily specials and $1.69 tacos on Taco Tuesday. The service was quick and the place was very clean. I will be coming back to try more. read more

Decent food that fulfills the hunger craving. Nothing amazing but they are good. Probably some of the better options in this town.

Yo, the tacos are way cheaper if you buy a tray. They stay warm all the way home, and they even come with the perfect amount of condiments and salsas. And the staff is super friendly and speaks both English and Spanish!! read more

This place just keep getting better. I love the daily specials, especially Taco Tuesday, of course! They have a good amount of seating, fast service, and really good food. And to top it off, they have legit al pastor from a trompo, not stuff that was just fried on the grill. I come here almost every week, and now I have another great reason. read more
