Another gem in Chelsea/Meatpacking! Located walking SL distance from work. When I'm in the mood for a burrito this is my spot ! My go-to item is the chipotle portobello burrito with add-on guacamole & carne asada and always order a Mexican coke! Ah!

Nacho comparison: top is Electric Burrito ($14 including chicken protein) and bottom is Dos Caminos ($24 no protein)

Nacho comparison between Electric Burrito and Dos Caminos. Electric Burrito was SIGNIFICANTLY better and will be my goto nacho place. Chips were crispy and portion was plentiful and much more worth the price point. Surprisingly the chicken was juicy and not dry. Overall appreciate this place for the quality and value, esp for socal mexican food cravings

Burrito
Sophie K.

OVERALL: I'm not crazy into California burritos, but I think this place accomplishes what it intends. Good but not mind blowing. BURRITOS: Fries in burritos? If you say so. I'm not a big fan of fries inside anything, but it's a thing, I guess. I shared the California Burrito with asada with my boyfriend. I think the pico was the best part of the burrito. I would personally prefer my burrito with lettuce instead of fries -- I think it's lacking that crunch and is really unhealthy with fries. But it suppose it makes it less messy to eat because the fries soak up some of the grease. AMBIANCE: [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super casual. Order, they call your number, you sit at one of the counters. Low key. Framed photographs on the walls (of things that kind of relate to California?), which features some exposed brick.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] SERVICE: Fast, kind. No complaints. VALUE: Fair. $16.65 for a burrito is kind of dumb, but it's NYC and it's 2025. Sounds about right. I prefer Chipotle for value -- and there is one down the street from here. We'll be back to get a breakfast burrito sometime.

I've been to both locations but I personally like the Chelsea location since it is slightly more spacious and within walking distance of the Meatpacking District. But both locations serve some incredible burritos that are quite filling and have the perfect balance of meat (or chicken or shrimp), rice, and sauce. My go-to order is The Johnny Utah Burrito paired with a Mexican Coke. All the burritos they serve are quite massive so do come with an empty stomach or an appetite for these burritos that serve plenty of everything in one burrito. Another plus is that these burritos are neatly wrapped from the tortilla wrap to the double layer of wrapping so if you wish to take this to-go, you'll still have a secure and warm burrito. Based on my many trips to the Chelsea location, the cashiers are very attentive and helpful especially when there is sauce I do not want added to my order. And the service does get a bit backed up due to food delivery orders on top of in-person orders so be mindful of what time you go to this location for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, this location is a fun spot to relax and unwind by yourself or bring a small group of friends to enjoy some burritos inside on cold days or enjoy the warm sun outside by their bench[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

We ordered via Uber Eats. I got the chicken bowl and my bf got the conga burrito with chicken. It was a decent amount of food, my only gripe was that you can't really customize it like chipotle (e.g. no beans, etc.). The beans that it came with were mushy. It also came with some orange sauce that helped with the flavor. We also got the guac and chips. The guac was pretty fresh! Good portions just wish I could customize it more. Overall it's a solid 3.5.

California Burrito

I get the California Burrito every time. The sauce is delicious with a little bit of a kick to it, but it's not too spicy. I always ask for extra sauce. It is a large burrito, so you are getting your money's worth. I recommend Electric Burrito to all my friends that visit the city!

Shrimp california Burrito

I've been wanting to try Electric Burrito for quite some time, because I adore San Diego burritos, so I ordered takeout the other night when the fridge was running low. Unfortunately, I was somewhat disappointed. We ordered the california burrito with shrimp and carne asada fries, and the order came out to be about $30. Starting with the burrito, it was a very generous portion and I really enjoyed the fresh tortilla, but biting into the burrito was slightly overwhelming. It just didn't really taste like California burritos I've had in the past. The shrimp was well-spiced, but almost Indian tasting? I quite liked the flavor, but the inside of the burrito was so homogenous - I feel like it could've really benefited from a creamy or fresh element, like some guac. It wasn't a bad burrito, but it just felt very heavy and greasy and the Indian-like spices took me by surprise. I was excited for the carne asada fries, because I used to eat a similar dish back in college, but unfortunately, it also did not live up to expectations. I enjoyed all the toppings, especially the guac (although the carne was a little dry), but the fries were disappointing. They were thin and almost soggy, reminiscent of McDonald's fries that'd been sitting out for too long. I think this dish could've been really good if the fries were hot and crispy. Maybe even a waffle fry? All this is to say, I am still on the hunt for a good San Diego burrito in NYC.The search continues!

Delicious food for a decent price and friendly service. Breakfast burritos are fire - highly recommend the lunch burrito.

Carne asada burrito
Gab G.

Grabbed lunch here one day and had a pretty good experience. The conga burrito with carne asada was delicious and huge. Also loved the chips. The only letdown was the pico de gallo, which was basically like eating a bunch of chopped tomatoes. Fresh, but flavorless. Would recommend the burritos, though!

Savannah W.

Very filling burrito and burrito bowls that I can eat over two meals. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The staff is friendly and they offer water and seating where you can people watch at the window.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Great breakfast burrito and [[HIGHLIGHT]]not too busy on a weekend morning![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Ingredients are all tasty and mesh together - salsa is amazing, must get on side :)

Electric Burrito came recommended from a Californian native that said this is his personal favorite burrito in New York. Original location is in East Village and they have another in Chelsea. I came for Saturday takeout lunch with my boyfriend, and we split the Carne Asada California Burrito ($15) and some chips to go with their salsa ($2.50). Everything was well executed - tender, generous portions of carne asada, and the optimal meat/carb/cheese/sauce/salsa ratio. l liked the burrito's creamy chipotle house sauce and the French fries of course!!! Portions are generous, and we were pretty full splitting a burrito. Only complaint was that the food took a bit, as they seem pretty leanly staffed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Note it is mostly a pick-up/takeout spot but there is still some countertop bar seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Jocelyn G.

Pretty decent burrito spot for New York, although being from LA, nothing can compare to socal's Mexican food scene. Ordered the conga burrito with carnitas. Everything went well together and the meat was tender and not dry. The burrito was huge and heavy. Came on a Sunday morning and there was already a small wait.

I haven't…read morefound tortillas or meat as fresh & tasty as this, even in NYC's outer boroughs (mostly Puebla-style I'm told). This location is convenient to Grand Central, Bryant Park, & Times Square. I was excited to find them after a getting off the Metro North. Unfortunately, the two times that I've eaten there hasn't been great, compared to their other locations in NoHo & Union Square. I'm not sure if the more touristy ambiance & customers makes a difference. First visit got the Pork Adobada Taco ($5-ish). It's similar to Al Pastor (even served with a few pieces of pineapple) but spicy. It's pork marinated in an adobo sauce made from dried red chiles (like guajillo or ancho), vinegar, garlic, and spices. The corn tortilla was very fresh & good but the pork was SO spicy. Some kind of chili oil was drizzled on, in, within, at the bottom. It comes with a sort of green crema. I barely finished - thought it was a joke or something. The second visit I got the Adobada (requested Zero spice) & a Chicken taco. The pork meat was delicious & reminded me of the first time I had Los Tacos No. 1. The chicken seemed like dark meat & was either over-marinated, slightly undercooked, or on its way out? resulting in weird mushy, slightly liver-like consistency. I even picked through the pieces to check for pinkness...the meat was just dark with little flavor. It came with a dollop of guacamole that didn't have much flavor. The corn tortillas also seemed slightly mealy/mushy & underdone. They weren't airy & slightly puffed as usual. I'll probably go back because their location and cost is convenient. But have to make sure the pork has No Spice & not sure how to ask for "done" tortillas. There's always a line at Los Tacos but it moves fast. The condiments & radishes, limes are always fresh. The staff is always pleasant & work quickly customizing your taco, wiping down the All White! hightops & refilling napkins. Don't think there's a restroom FYI.

Cinco de Mayo landed on my radar when a bunch of us at work were looking for a place to grab some…read morelunch. We had our usual list of spots in Midtown East, but this time we wanted something a little different. We ultimately landed on Mexican, however even then there were several spots to chose from. One of my colleagues found CdM, and since we had nothing to lose we decided to check it out. In terms of physical space at CdM, there is very little; this is actually a walk-up spot hence it is solely a takeout restaurant. The menu is pretty straightforward - lots of Mexican staples with a good variety to choose from. The burrito bowl looked good so I decided to go with that - I was given choice of protein (I chose pastor) and types of beans (I chose black). The bowl was really good - all the ingredients tasted fresh and they were generous with the portion. They added sour cream to the top of the bowl and it came with a side of salsa verde which I thought was a nice touch. We also ordered some bags of tortilla chips to share - these were my favorite kind as they were semi-thick and super crunchy. Overall, I had a solid experience at Cinco de Mayo. It definitely hit the Mexican craving spot and I would have no qualms returning for another meal.

First time here - pretty solid meal with decent pricing as well…read more I got the cinco de mayo plate which came with beef. Good lunch portion and it was also pretty tasty. Also got guacamole and chips as a side - which was on the smaller side given the price. All in all it's a good lunch option in the city!

The birria tacos were really good (or so my son said) but sadly the taquitos were terrible. They literally just had unseasoned shredded chicken (but serves me right for ordering something so basic). The salsa also tasted more like tomato paste than actual salsa. But again, the goal for this stop was a frozen marg(s) and that mission was accomplished and then were good . The atmosphere was also fun and lively and our server was attentive and never tried to push us out the door despite sitting there for a while!

The energy was flat, and that lack of enthusiasm carried right into the food. The menu needs a complete overhaul. I'm not sure if it's trying to be "different," but the taco options were unappealing just from reading the descriptions. I managed to choose the two best-sounding items I could find, and honestly, they were so bland I don't even remember what they were. The setup and decor were basic. This spot could be a fun hangout, but it would take a better menu and staff who actually seem to care. It feels like just another restaurant that's lost sight of creating an actual experience for guests. The lack of vibe is obvious--if you don't want customers, just say so. I'm giving 2 stars out of respect for the fact that people have to work for a living.

I had this place bookmarked for a while. Finally came for my birthday dinner. It was a rainy…read moreevening and I was hoping there'd be umbrella sleeves offered. I didn't see any but saw buckets for umbrellas. I opted not to leave it there since I didn't wanna forget or risk someone taking it. I took it upstairs with me. My friend had arrived and was seated. Apparently, they do offer sleeves because she got one. But the 3 people who were at the hostess booth failed to offer me one. The beautiful ambiance will get your attention immediately. It is a stunning space. The tableware was gorgeous as well. We waited for our last friend to arrive who was almost half an hour late before ordering (we thought she'd arrive sooner). Our server, Matias was gracious about it the whole time. What we ordered: Drinks: Passionfruit Margaritas & Mojito - we were happy with them. Tlayudas, Guacamole y Salsas - this was really good and a great option for the table to share. The homemade chips alone were excellent. Liked all the different dips. Guac could've used some cilantro and more acid/spice. Tán Ceviche - I loved this. Super fresh and great flavor. Could use a touch of acid. My entree was the Shrimp & Crab Enchiladas - This was pretty good. The sauce could've used some spice and some acid to cut through the richness. My friend ordered the Yellow Corn Soup as part of her meal and she did not like it. She said it was too sweet which I thought was strange. I tried a spoonful and I agreed with her. It needed a savory note and again, acid would've done wonders. Also, the crab was a bit fishy in this. She enjoyed her tamal though. I tried a touch of the sauce and it was delish. My other friend had the Quesabirria which she was also happy with. To sum up: Ambiance: 5/5 The space is undoubtedly gorgeous. Food: 4/5 Beautiful presentation on everything but each dish lacks an element or two to make it a home run. Staff: Wait staff 5/5. Downstairs staff (greeters/hostess) 4/5. Needs to be more on point like offering customers sleeves for umbrellas or pointing out the buckets to put them in. At some point through our entrees a group of 3 women were doing a 10-minute photo shoot by the stairway where our table was. Absolutely inappropriate behavior and a manager should've stopped it. Camera flashes all up in our faces while we're eating wasn't cool. Overall, still a great elevated Mexican cuisine option. The slight tweaks would make this a 5 star place for me. I'd return to try more things.

If you are someone who is looking at an aesthetic place, this is a top contender. Unfortunately, I would say this place is better looking than the food is good. The food was fine, appetizers were all fresh but lacked any real depth in flavor. I wasn't too thrilled with the bone marrow I had either (but the tortillas come in the cutest basket). Personally, if it wasn't for the drinks and the space, I cant say this place is worth it - you're not coming here for the food. Another little complaint I have is the women's restroom on the second floor - right by the door is a floor to ceiling mirror which I understand was included to make the space seem bigger, but my friends and I agreed that it is a little misleading - I kept wanting to walk into it thinking there was more space there and not wall. I would recommend maybe putting a decal on it to clearly show its mirror.
