Family owned businesses. I like doing small business. They all need support in these uncertain times. Dave it the owner and he treats his customers like family. The food is really good too. Only excepts cash so be prepared for that. Stop by and give them a try. read more

Dave is a really good person very passionate about his food Try it with the bbq sauce read more

When I was new in my profession, I interned in the Acalane's school district, and ate here a lot because it was nearby. We used to have some staff, but now he's doing it all on his own. The chips are really good and the lime cilantro steak is always my go to. It's this humble establishment, but I really appreciate that nearly every time I come.He does something like offer me a free soda. Just because. Very kind guy that seems to appreciate his clientele. read more

I switched up today and got a Cajun shrimp and scallop burrito. Still the best burrito shop in Lafayette This is the place to go read more

I used to go here a lot but since I moved from Lafayette I haven't been able to go here. Tonight, I ordered a chicken/prawn burrito. I like all the ingredients except that the white rice was stale or not cooked fully. Also it is not Mexican style rice :( very disappointed. The price for a good burrito is up there and therefore the burrito itself should be good. Dave, come on..: you need to use (cook) Mexican rice for burritos. read more

December 29, 2025 @ 11:45am - App, Googel and Yelp all say this place is open but it was closed. Drove an hour to come try this place. Fortunately, there's a deferent owner at the Walnut Creek location so that's where I ended up going. I recommend going to the Walnut Creek location don't bother coming to this location. read more

Long time owner working has been giving amazing service and making excellent food all these years. We were short on cash and he made us mini versions. They're great supporters of the community too! read more

We stopped here to get dinner, and let me tell you this was the BEST burrito I've had since.....going to Mexico. Honestly the lime steak burrito was fantastic. We also had a chicken burrito for my kid. Aaaamzing. Dave was so kind and just a real homie feeling to his service. My husband and I were really impressed by Dave's food, and just how sweet he was. Highly recommend!! I didn't take a picture of the food bc it was so good we ate it all. But super fresh tasting, meat was great quality. Fresh lettuce, avocado. No blubbery or chewy bits in the meat. Very good! read more

Best burritos around! Especially the oriental chicken burrito! All the food is fresh and tasty. Dave takes care of his customers too.

Really good food and an extremely welcoming environment. Kind of tucked away in Lafayette but well worth it.

Best Burritos in Lafayette. We like the Thai Chicken and the prawn burritos. Ask for the special salsa. Great for take out or eat in, but need cash. David supports local sports clubs. read more

Amazing experience at casa burrito today. I ordered vegan burritos and tacos (grilled veggies with no cheese) and they were perfection. I saw and smelled the veggies on the grill when I came in. Although he burrito I ordered was simple but the quality of ingredients set it apart, perfect char on the veggies, crisp lettuce, soft rice, good beans, perfectly seasoned pico and guac, and not a single wilted leaf of cilantro. The owner was so kind to me and my kids and made us feel right at home in his shop! Although the shop is small there's a nice little outdoor seating area and a few tables inside making it comfortable for a casual place to eat in. I think we've found our go-to place in Lafayette. read more

Today reminded me that integrity still exists in business. I stopped by Casa Gourmet Burrito without realizing it was cash-only. Instead of turning me away, Dave, the owner, insisted I stay and enjoy a meal on the house. That kind of generosity doesn't happen anymore. While I ate, Dave and I had a genuine conversation about business, the economy, and community values. As a fellow small-business owner, I can tell when someone leads with heart, Dave absolutely does. He knew returning customers by name, greeted families like old friends, and even handed a few coins to a little boy to toss into the fountain outside. You can't fake that kind of hospitality. The food? Just as genuine and made with pride. But what stood out most was the character behind the counter. Dave's an immigrant living the American dream, upholding the values most of us wish were more common today: kindness, humility, and hard work. If you want great burritos and an even better reminder of what good people look like, Casa Gourmet Burrito deserves your business. Support the people who make this community what it is. PS. Don't use this as a sneaky way to het a burrito. read more

This place was recommended by a friend who's been eating there for 20 YEARS!! Had chicken burritos, very fresh ingredients and great flavor. He brought us out free chicken tacos to try, tender chicken, avocado, cheese and a great sauce... very nice guy behind the counter, obviously takes alot of pride in what he serves, looking forward to going back and trying the seafood options! read more

Very rude and grumpy owner clearly very unhappy in his own life and takes it out on customers. Will never go back here. Highly don't recommend! read more

Excellent burrito, even better service! Cute little place, I'd highly recommend coming in. I love supporting the small business and it's way better than chipotle. Check it out! read more

The owner was so cool & kind; the owner is a gem. He made two chicken tacos he was trying out as a new recipe, gave me those tacos for free . . . who ever knew homemade BBQ sauce would go great on a chicken taco!? The walls are lined with Joe Montana photos & local kids sports teams thanking him for his food; him & I had a great conversation, he loaded my bag up with chips & really good salsa. Told me to grab a drink from the fridge on the way out. I ordered the steak burrito, it was so DARN good. I am already telling family about this place & especially the owner. Next time I visit Walnut Creek I am going to Lafayette for this food & to see the owner again. Talking to the owner is like talking to a favorite family member. Thanks Dave, Matt P.S. This is the first Yelp Review I ever left lol. read more

Prices above are false. They're actually triple the amount. When revealing this to the owner he told me to use "Common sense" the prices were from the early 2000's. Common sense tells me he had 20 years to adjust the site and to never come back. Extremely rude. read more

Casa has been a long time favorite burrito spot for me. I used to come here when I was a kid and their gourmet burritos have a special place in my heart. The owner Dave has worked there for as long as I can remember and he is always down to earth. The shop even sponsors local kids sports teams and has pictures of the teams all around the restaurant! A very friendly space. They are cash only though so come prepared. read more

Quick food and very generous owner!! Great service! Lots of seating indoor and outdoor.

He made a relatively small mistake in taking my order, but remedied it well by giving me a number of additional items. He even offered me a free soda! So, food was pretty good and I give him an A for service! read more

I have been coming here since 2005...and let me tell you it has drastically changed and gone from phenomenal to utter trash. How does one fall off like this? Oh Dave....what happened to you man? We used to come here all the time with acalanes football and basketball team back when I was attending high school. This place has been a gem and treasure in the city of Lafayette. This is truly sad and disappointing. Not to mentioned I stopped by yesterday for a garlic like steak burrito after all these years which to my surprise really got me sick to the point I was sweating and throwing up. read more

The service is amazing and the food i recommend everyone come here the owner is the nicest person ever and whats nicer is the amazing burritos and drinks read more

The worst burrito I've ever had. I ordered a "mixed vegetable" burrito that didn't include any vegetables other than salsa mix and lettuce. The worst part is that the tortilla was half cooked making it stiff and difficult to chew. The shredded cheese was still raw, and there was very little beans. Basically, a mixed vegetable burrito is mainly rice and salsa mix (tomatoes and onions). It was a waste of money. read more

We came in close to closing but the owner was so nice and handled our large order quickly and with ease. More than that, the burritos were absolutely delicious and the green salsa was top-notch. read more

Casa Gourmet burrito is an exellent and delicious choice. Dave was especially friendly and he made the whole experience special, he is super funny and kind. 10/10 gotta try it. read more

Came here and the service was so good there was only one worker there and he took good care of us. He noticed I took the cheese off my taco and offered to remake my tacos. Definitely coming back! Good food good service and a cute outside seating area as well! read more

I've not been to gourmet burrito for a bit, and was absolutely delighted with my meal! I had the hot spicy prawn burrito, it was out of this world. Dave was welcoming and helpful, wanting to ensure I was happy with my meal. The ambience is the same, full of accolades for him and his commitment to our community. Check it out! read more

After at least 10 years of going here, I finally had to give up on this place and the owner. While the food is not the problem for me, I've seen the place go from a popular high school hangout to a ghost restaurant, haunted by a moody manager with empty tables, and mysteriously floating prices. He at one point had charming workers who were raided by some Don Juan immigration agent that won over their confidence by speaking Spanish, and they were busted. From then on, he started running the place himself and pulled it into the basement. He needs a few cheery workers, maybe some of those high school fund raisers like Krispy Kreme used to have, and some more professionalism. It took a LOT for me to abandon ship, because his burritos have an "I'm home" kind of taste, with relatively reasonable prices, but I have to get on with my life. Best of luck in the afterlife, Casa Ghost-met. Highly recommended for a Halloween meal. read more

The burrito was delicious, but what won us over was the amazing service. We will definitely be returning!

Love this place. While in between taking our order and cooking our burritos, the chef was cracking numerous jokes. He's beyond kind, customizing our order down to the cheese, beans, and meat. The best thing I love about this place is that they don't cook their beans in pork, so you can enjoy a vegetarian or pescetarian burrito without any worries. I want to give him a standing ovation for his stand up comedy!!! read more

Dave is a good guy and has always taken great care of me . He's also provided, with pleasure, last minute burritos to my son's Acalanes football team. read more

Came in for my favorite burrito, and the owner not only gave me a free soda, he gave me a second burrito for free. Visit if you like good food and good deals read more

We happen to be driving by and decided to try this place.Great tasting Gourmet burrito. The owner was super nice to us. Will be back again.

I've grown up in Lamorinda and surprisingly have never eaten here before. The owner was one of the nicest guys I've met and offered up free soda as a bonus. Rarely do you see service and personability like you get here. The burrito I got tasted like every ingredient was very fresh and there was care put into it and the steak was well seasoned. This place will be in my rotation from now on! read more

Best burrito ever! The chicken burrito was delicious and the owner was incredibly warm and kindhearted. The service was fast and this is a super cute hole in the wall place. read more
