    Giant Steak Chimichanga
    Sam S.

    Tasty food at a reasonable price! It's a small "hole in the wall" atmosphere but the service is great. My go to place for late night food on Franklin.

    Decent burritos for a great price. My coworkers and I stopped in here for lunch. There were great vegetarian options and the food was out in less than 5 minutes. Everyone that got chicken said that it was a bit plain. I got the green burrito and it had a great flavor. We all thought it was funny how different our plates looked considering almost all of us got a burrito; some of us had 7 chips on our plate while others had a lot more. The burritos sizes varied too. The interior was vibrant and the service was fast. Definitely a great place for a quick meal.

    The new location is super cute and roomy! They have a new fresh juice bar where they squeeze the juices right in front of you. It was counter-serve but the servers were quick to bring us our orders after we sat down. Food and the juice special were all delicious!

    I've heard good things about this place and was excited to try it. I got the chicken burrito which was a good size and also had some chips and salsa on the side which was nice. The burrito was a normal version (there was a larger burrito with extra toppings) but was flavorful and tasty. The chips were crisp and the salsa was fresh. The service took a bit but they were really busy so it made sense. I would go back if in the area again!

    What can I say about Cosmic Cantina. This little hole in the wall is down a brick walkway tucked away next to a barber shop. It's not very big but boy does it have the Best Burrito I've had in North Carolina since moving here 9 years ago from California. Steak burrito deluxe was so full of flavor. Wrapped perfectly. Pressed to get it a little toasty on the outside. Filled to the brim with steak, rice , pinto beans cheesy , guac. Next time I want to get the giant burrito! Lol. Service was fast. I don't think I waited longer than 5minutes. Server was super nice. Will definitely be back!

    Sometimes their chicken is super salty. But their catering always pulls through. I love their salsa verde and their their guac is amazing. It does mark up the price a lot, but I fear the deluxe burritos are the way to go.

    Cosmic Cantina is located on UNC-Chapel Hill's campus. It's open for both takeout and delivery, but no dining in. It's usually open until late at night, but they've adjusted their hours because of COVID. I like that each order comes with a small side of chips and there are plenty of vegetarian options too. I got a Chicken Burrito ($8) and I thought it tasted pretty average. It's a packed burrito but it needed more seasoning. But it's a decent amount of food for the price and if you're a college kid scouring for late night food when you're drunk, this is a good option. TLDR: Average burrito but the perfect spot for college kids to satisfy their late night/drunk cravings.

    You can never go wrong with cosmic! Service is always fast and the food is inexpensive and consistent. It's a great spot to swing by for a late dinner or late night snack. One of my favorite aspects of their burritos is that they press them on a hot plate such that the tortilla wrap has a semi quesadilla like texture. One of my favorite things that I recently got there is the Chicken mole poblano.

    Staff was friendly, however food was lacking flavor. My order was not accurate either. Would not recommend.

    Really tasty burritos. Renovation is all positive. Getting the stuff that makes it a great burrito (deluxe + queso) is expensive.

    Vibe inside was cute, and had a lively environment. Great after club meal, but it wouldn't be my first choice during day hours.

    They took my order, lost it, and refused to remake it or refund it. The staff was rude and refused to help fix the situation.

    Good late night snack option, better than timeout. Good price for a rather large burrito

    It was honestly so refreshing to find this healthy fast casual option on a day I needed a cleaner…read moremeal. Overall I was impressed with the variety and quality of fresh ingredients! They were in the process of training a new hire at the time, so the line took some time to move through, but I still got my food pretty quickly. I ordered the harvest crunch vegetable which had all of my favorites - the mushrooms were so flavorful and my favorite part. The only two critiques I had was that 1) I asked for half/half rice and romaine and my bowl had way too much romaine, it really overpowered all of the other ingredients that came in the bowl and 2) the tofu was not my favorite - it wasn't crispy or as flavorful as I would like it, so that's something for the plant-based community to keep in mind. That said, I imagine all of the other animal-based proteins taste better! If their tofu was improved, I would absolutely return to try some of their other unique bowl combos.

    Grabbed lunch from here recently and really enjoyed it! We ordered takeout using the website and…read morethe food was prepared on time. Everything tasted very fresh! I got a wheat wrap with some steak, spinach, and mushrooms, while my wife got a mixed grain bowl with chicken and bacon. We were both very happy with our meals, and while the food wasn't cheap (about $15 a person), I didn't feel ripped off either. The website mentioned that the ingredients were high quality and that the dressings were made in house, and it definitely tasted like it! Overall, I'd definitely come back here to get a healthy meal.
