We stumbled upon this gem by yelping and we are so glad!! I've been here two or three times now and the food is consistently delicious. Very authentic. I love the salsa and guacamole. Our waiters have been great. We've told friends they should go....imo that says something about a place it's a casual place that is busy but not too busy. Go....you'll be glad you did! read more

Such delicious food. There's a reason we're regulars here. Maybe not regular regular, but this is a great place for thosee nights you don't know what you want, lots of choices. read more

After reading the rave reviews on Yelp, I was really excited to try this place out on my way to Ohio. When my boyfriend and I arrived, we were given chips and salsa which was honestly the best part of my meal. The salsa was flavorful with just the right amount of kick. I ordered the Fat Burrito with chicken and red sauce. The chicken was decent, but the burrito wasnt that flavorful despite the copious toppings (sour cream, melted cheese, salsa). It tasted like something I could have gotten from Taco Bell. On the plus side, the service was great and the meal is a steal at only 8 bucks. read more

The best way to put it, YUM!!! This food is authentic and awesome!! Wether carry out or eating in the food is really wonderful and fast.

Small restaurant, fat burritos. We ordered some jalapeño poppers as an appetizer, and were very pleased with them. I got the steak burrito with green sauce, and was surprised at its ginormous size. The only knock I heard about this place was that the salsa was so-so at best. But...I enjoyed that too. read more

I have been looking for a good Mexican restaurant, so I asked my cousin where to go. She suggested Fat Burrito (per her husband). Take a seat if you are eating in, but to get your bill go to the counter. The servers were very pleasant. I had the steak tacos. I had one hard shell and one soft shell. I usually prefer hard shells, but in this case the soft shell was the way to go. The tacos were tasty and stuffed full. Can't wait to go back and try some different items. It was very reasonably priced! read more

Dinner at Fat Burrito was good. I had the pork taco dinner and it was excellent. My husband had carne asada, and he said it was o.k. the service was very good. The prices are decent. read more

Stop by here spur of the moment one hungry afternoon. I real love Mexican food. Very plain inside, but as long as it's clean and the food is good that's ok with me. Ordered the Fat Burrito with pork. The salsa was excellent! I asked and they make it there. The chips were average. I wish all Mexican restaurants toasted or heated the chips. Makes all the difference. They didn't unfortunately. The burrito was decent. Need to work on making sure the ingredients are spread evenly and not half pork and the other half lettuce. I'm not sure if they actually put the sour cream on the inside. I would have preferred it on the outside. I will go back and try one other plate before I decide if it is worth making it a regular lunch stop. Service was fine also. Oh, and I don't speak Spanish and that is what the t.v. was set on. I know I know a Mexican restaurant, but still. read more

A very small place with extremely reasonable pricing. I had a steak fat burrito dinner with soft drink. $15. Salsa was homemade and a bit salty, but every batch varies I know. Very pleased with the quality and speed of the food. Definatly coming back. read more

Fat Burrito - Check out that presentation. #fancy - Mexican Near Me - Crown Point, Indiana

Long story short, their food is hit or miss. They don't serve fresh rice. Old rice with chunks from the pot. I tried to give them another shot after a few bad experiences. Never again, I left a detailed experience on google. They're serving food that these Crown Pojnt folks thinks is actually good Mexican food. No it's not, they put the shittiest meat in their giant burritos. When you have fresh good Mexican food somewhere else. I guarantee you won't be back. read more

This place was packed when we went. Their burritos are huge and absolutely delish. Prices were good and service was fast. We will definitely be returning. read more

The overall experience was good. The wait time for a burrito sit in was about 30. Chips and salsa had a good balanced season and freshness. We all got fat steak and chicken burritos and they were so filling and the price can't beat it. read more

After moving to Crown Point I had to find a new go to Mexican place. El Amigo was a weekly go to when I lived in Valpo. This is definitely my new spot! The fat avocado burrito is absolutely massive! I actually couldn't finish it and saved half for my lunch the next day. The service was good and extremely fast. So happy to have found my new go to place! read more

If you like hottttt food, get the spicy shrimp tacos. I love spicy food and this made me sweat.

We love fat burrito! It's a family favorite. My kids get the avocado burrito and my husband and I always get the steak burrito. Their queso and guacamole are awesome! Super reasonably priced and because of the huge portions it usually becomes two meals. read more

The food is good, one of the few places in NWI that offers tongue tacos. The horchata is usually very good but sometimes you get the dregs which is gritty. Staff is friendly and open to giving suggestions. The bathrooms, while being one men's and one woman's, are clean and that's impressive in the area. read more

Staff is amazing and are always working very hard place is clean and the prices are extremely fair have eaten there numerous times and and have no complaints.... super clean read more

This place is the bomb. Ive been going there since they opened. It was small then and its a lil bigger now with more tables since they moved next storw but they need more space. Thats a good thing! Take out super busy and tables full even when you think they might be slow. Fat burrito is just that...FAT!! salsa is fresh and very good! I just moved back to crown point..ut oh, there goes the scale! read more

I had chicken fajitas- they were pretty good. Needed a little more seasoning. The chips and salsa were good too but wouldn't waste money on the guac. Friendly staff- the place was very busy. read more

A great whole in the wall Mexican spot. I got their tacos and they were AH-mazing! Their salsa is very yummy. Probably some of the best. It was busy in the restaurant but we were seated very quickly and our food came very fast. My hubby got the chorizo fat burrito and I nibbled on his. I don't think I could eat a burrito because they are HUGE. But, his burrito was better than my tacos. Still loved the tacos though! read more

It's a small restaurant, but that shouldn't stop you from checking this place out. The service was awesome, everyone was very nice. The chips and salsa were excellent, some of the best salsa I've ever had. I got the Steak Fat Burrito (for only $9). The food came out fast and tasted delicious, definitely left me full. With the great food and great prices, this is a place you do not want to miss. read more

The food is super yummy and they have great service. Even with their restaurant fully packed, they are very prompt. Definitely recommend!

Amazing burritos! Love the Swiss Burrito! Great service; made quickly and I've never had anything less than a great meal there! Gotta get an horchata while you're at it, too! read more

OMG!!!! This place has the most amazing Mexican food I have ever had besides being in Mexico!!! You definitely will not be disappointed!!

Food is on point. Translation: perfectly seasoned Mexican, guacamole is made in house. I had huevos Mexicana( a vegetarian dish) and it was spot on in the flavor and portion size. My mom had the guacamole fat burrito it was HUGE! She definitely took a box home. She also said it was delicious! The service was great- no complaints both gentlemen we encountered were courteous, and our server was attentive. The food prep time was about expected not long at all. We cleared our chips and salsa rather quickly, but our food was out before we could get a second basket of chips. The salsa is flavorful, fresh, but not spicy. The check comes tot he table FYI and you pay at the front- typical check out style. The crowd thinned out while we were there but we got there about 2pm on a Friday afternoon. read more

Fast, delicious, fresh, clean place, friendly staff. Vegetarian fajitas were amazing, nachos were HUGE. Kids should have split the order. Husband said chicken fajitas were fantastic too. read more

This place is inexpensive, fast and delicious! I saw the 4.5 star rating and decided to give it a shot on our travels and we were not disappointed! We ordered the cheese dip and a chorizo fat burrito and our total was around $10, so much food for not a lot of money. The burrito was stuffed full of chorizo and the meat had a good crisp on some of the pieces, which I love. The small cheese dip was large enough to fill me and 2 guys and we still had a little bit left over. Seriously, such a great spot for a quick, huge burrito! read more

This is one of my favorite places to grab a quick bite while on lunch hour. The burritos are LARGE and will easily support one for two meals! As with most places, you will get a basket of chips and some sauce while waiting for your lunch. I have usually order the same item every time, which happens to be the Beef Fat Burrito. I have also tried the Pork Fat Burrito. You would not go wrong with either choice. The meat is tender and the flavorings are quite authentic. If you are not interested in the option to have a "doggy bag" they also offer a smaller burrito. For the difference in price...I say get the bigger and have a great meal/snack later on as well! Definitely give this place a try. read more

Have only tried one item and that is the Fat Burrito itself. I got steak and it was a delicious and flavorful meat. The entire burrito was good but I feel like it could have been better if there was rice in it. I just like my burritos with rice in it but it was overall very good. read more

I love Fat Burrito! You will not be disappointed , huge portions, the fat steak burrito is my absolute favorite! You could feed a small army with the portion size, but doesn't ever disappoint. read more
