Stopped in for a quick lunch and Aaliyah greeted me from behind the counter. Since it was my first time here in 10 years she gave me her top picks and was very nice and patient as I decided what I wanted. Opted for a half-size nacho with steak with a bunch of toppings (queso, shredded cheese, lettuce, guac, pico, grilled veggies) and it was the perfect size for a fast lunch without leftovers. The steak was tender and I got the jalepeno salsa as well as a side of habanero sauce and both were fire! They added a nice level of heat and flavor to the meal. I came before the lunch rush so I didn't have to wait and the restaurant was pretty tidy. It was a nice day so I sat near a window with a nice view. I'd also say it was slightly cheaper than other competitors like it, so that was a plus too! Thank you to Aaliyah for being a kind face behind the counter! read more

It has been about 4 years since visiting (moved out of state)...so decided to come to my favorite place for nachos. Unfortunately, not my go to for food anymore! As I go through the line adding toppings, amazed at seeing so much dried up food on the side of containers! Did the veggie nachos....waaay too salty! Couldn't taste the queso at all and the in -house made salsa, not much flavor and what I could taste, wasn't impressed! The veggie mix was too overloaded with onions; she was nice enough to try and pick out more peppers for me. Sorry Freebirds....no more! read more

I am SO glad I chose to go get food at Freebird's yesterday! Aaliyah is the BEST- she helped me choose which ingredients to get for my bowl since I recently had dental surgery AND can't do heat/spicy! I got it to go & it was so delicious- I highly recommend the ranch hand steak & white chicken fajita meat! No more Chipotle for me! I'll be returning soon so I hope Aaliyah will always be there, simply because she is so kind & knowledgeable. :) read more

We were in town and this location was 5 minutes from our hotel. Haven't been to a freebirds in a while since there isn't one near me. We ordered ahead for pickup. The food was ready pretty fast , we ordered when we were close by so we waited on the last item to be made while we were there already. Still met the time commitment provided when I ordered online. The staff we very welcoming and kind. They offered a beverage while the finished up however I declined. We were so hungry we forgot picks of our food but my bowl was really great I did a vegetarian bowl and my spouse has a vegetarian burrito. The chyanne tortilla was spicy by itself however went really well with my bowl. The creamy jalapeño sauce is to die for! I wish they put a little more of the corn , pico , and tortilla strips but over all it was a good portion. The burrito was on point as well. However, I'd suggest maybe a mushroom filling be added as the vegatarian option is just bell pepper and onion which I like but my spouse does not. I know a long time ago there was a different veggie option maybe zucchini or something if that sort? Maybe it also depends on locations as to what options are available The location was clean and had plenty of seating. I will definitely be going out of my way to have freebirds more often! read more

Freebirds World Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Normally, I enjoy Freebird's nachos, but this time, these are just sad. Join me in the game of finding my salsa, sour cream, bbq sauce, and jalapeños. Queso and tomatillo salsa are on the side. Dry nachos suck. read more

Freebirds World Burrito - Sad pulled pork nachos - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Just left after ordering a half bird & queso. Definitely should have walked out when I saw the cook didn't have on a face mask or hair net. Mind you ... his hair and beard were long. Got home to bite into a burrito with 2 LONG BLONDE HAIRS WOVEN INYO MY BURRITO. Just a heads up Freebirds! COVID DOES EXIST, people can get sick. As a business you're required to keep a clean, sanitary establishment. People can get sick, you carry bacteria and dirt on skin, and hair! Your cooks should be wearing long hair pulled back and in a net and their faces should be covered... especially if they have long facial hair. Last time driving that far, but hopefully you guys get the point... otherwise start including hair on the menu. read more

Freebirds World Burrito - Smallest transaction ever at Freebirds because the big guy was so AGGRESSIVE!!! - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Texas

It has been several years since I have gotten to a Freebirds for a meal. I must say, it hasn't changed (much), which is great in my opinion. I opted for the burrito bowl with the white fajita chicken, Mexican rice and refried beans, adding a good portion of the grilled vegetables and hot salsa. The 'hot' salsa isn't as spicy as Chipotle's. I miss the old days when Freebirds would have that orange container of spicy habanero goodness on every table. Darned COVID changed them in that way. Another thing different between Freebirds and Chipotle's is the crunchy garlic. That's a game changer in my opinion. I overlooked the sour cream, which I realized half way though the meal. Next time, for sure. The 'pot' brownie was fantastic, even though they renamed it to something lame. Overall a great experience, with the customer service being on point. I wish there was one local to me. Hey, Freebirds, bring one down South to Waxahachie, TX. You won't be disappointed in the support we would give you. read more

Tried them for the first time today. The god was really good, the ingredients were all fresh and the prices are totally fair when you consider the portions. The staff at this location are particularly kind, helpful and imo, adorable. I wish the salsa and guacamole had more flavor and their death sauce truly isn't hot enough for that title but is tasty. The queso was killer awesome. I'll definitely go back and recommend. read more

I ordered takeout 1st time eating hereI ordered a bowl . It was gross it was suppose to come with tomatoes and peppers it was rice and gravy. The forgot all the vegetables. Worst ever. I wasted my money. Especially since I have Covid and can't taste a thing.Thank God. I am tasteless. read more

They charged me for a canceled order! I have called and tried to get my money back but guess what? They always say the same thing "we will call you back" I AM STILL WAITING! Be professional! (I will post this everywhere until someone replies and try to fix this situation) read more

Awful!!! Nasty food. Do not try . I was excited to try and it was not worth my money at all !! Trust me

Do not believe the lies. This is NOT a good burrito place in Arlington, Texas. The burrito I had was a dead as the person that mumbled at me while asking me what I wanted. How can a heaping huge burrito have NO FLAVOR in ANYTHING. There is a small park up the road with ducks. I tossed some corn from my order out for the ducks and the refused to eat it. Most flew off. If you cannot win over ducks with corn, what do you think that means for the people that fall into the trap of lies. Disgusting read more

My go to location for some yummy burritos! Even when the line is long... it goes by fast. The workers are always great and accommodating. The environment is always welcoming and fun. Plus this location is in the middle of the highlands, so after consuming all the delicious food, you can walk around and shop =) Plus during the holidays, the lights are pretty to look at. Order to eat in or out. You can also order through their app. Give them your phone number to enter their loyalty rewards program to earn free food! Burritos, tacos, bowls, etc. Plenty of different options to build your food the way you want it to be. I love that the worker always mixes up the stuff in your burrito before wrapping it, so that you get everything you ordered in every bite =) My favorite thing to order is the Hybrid Beef on flour! If you love spicy, def don't skip the jalapeno creamy salsa! Even though it is labeled to be spicier than "death" it isn't that bad. I have a pretty decent spice tolerance. I even add jalapenos in order. Best sauce I've discovered thus far! I'm usually not that adventurous when it comes to salsa.. and typically just had the regular salsa. Since i've discovered the jalapeno creamy.. there is no turning back! Gotta have it!! Yes, the tortillas for the burritos are all the same size, just the food portion is different when it comes to ordering the different sizes. The rice here is always the right texture. I've been to other locations and it would be a hit and miss.. and sometimes too under cooked. read more

Ordered two pork monster burritos, sauce on the side. Warning check your to go orders. None of the sauce on the sides including sour cream were in the bag. When I went back up front the rude ass Karen that works there said you only got one sour cream, uh no lady I paid for 2 and you only gave me sauce for one of my burritos. I won't be going back rude ass people all standing around . Paid 30 bucks for 2 burritos which by the way are half the size of the guy with his arm . Guess covid shrank the monsters because it definitely wasn't the biggest nor the best as they claim read more

I've been a fan of Freebirds for many, many years. They're very similar to Chipotle, with way more options. This location always has excellent service, fresh food, clean tables and restrooms. Go hungry, because their burritos are HUGE. Even their (hybrid) small one, which I usually get on a cayenne tortilla. I definitely recommend their fresh tortilla chips and queso as well. In my undergrad days I would often visit just to grab queso and chips to snack on before lecture. If you like burritos, burrito bowls or tacos just go! read more

One of the better burrito places in the area. Each bite was so flavorful. The Monster burrito was so tasty and worth the price. I can't wait to come back for some more. Let's just say it HITS!!! read more

Freebirds World Burrito - Got the Monster muy delicioso - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Very tasty, quality, made from scratch food. We had 2 soft tacos, a salad and burrito. We will order again!

I got the salad with the cauliflower rice, black beans and white chicken thinking it would be the healthier choice but it was entirely too salty. I couldn't finish it. Not worth the money I spent. Save your money or go to chipotle. read more

I hadn't been to Freebirds in years, this location is even better than the North Dallas location. I got a monster pork burrito. It was huge and about $11. This was my first time getting chips and queso from them. It was I believe $5 but had a drink deal. Still the best burrito I've ever had, I'd definitely go back more often. read more

I tried Freebird based on the review of another yelper and I'm so glad I did! When I saw it was similar to Chipotle, I was sad but not for long. They have so many options but the main thing that impressed me was most items can stand on their own. Rare! Everything I had tasted fresh and full of flavor. Less is more here imo. I'll definitely be back! read more

This place is OK, but I wouldn't go if I was anywhere near a Chipotle. I do like how Freebirds has different sizes of burritos, and their nachos were fine. The tortillas are also much better than the tortillas at Chipotle, but the filling left much to be desired. Their rice was like the rice that would come in a Mexican-style Lean Cuisine TV dinner, nothing like the fluffy, lime-flavored rice at Chipotle. The ingredients didn't seem to be fresh, and I didn't finish my half of the steak burrito I split with a friend. On the plus side, the service was really good, and their hot sauce was pretty hot. The burrito wasn't horrible, and it might have been four stars if I had never been to Chipotle. The only way I'll eat at Freebirds again is if all the Chipotles within a ten mile radius were to catch on fire. read more

This is going to be short & sweet...great food, horrendously apathetic employees. It bothers me that they get visually offended if I don't want rice...serious body language going on here. When I got to the end of what I wanted on my quesadilla the young lady actually said, "good." When my companion asked for dressing on her salad, the lethargic dude on the register mumbled the choices& it sounded like one was "ancho ranch." He waited until pouring the ancho on her salad to clarify, then snorted and poured ranch over the top. Uncalled for! No dressing was offered during the process of making the salad, btw. I am a Freebirds regular...& I have visited many, many locations. Only here is the service poor. This is my third visit in the last month & all I can say is the service is consistent. read more

I have never set foot in a Chipotle and I never will. I am an old school Aggie and we just don't do that because Freebird's was around way before that other joint came to town. I get the veggie burrito with refried beans, cheese, spanish rice, lettuce, tomato, and sour cream. I love it. It is simple comfort food. The ingredients are always fresh and the staff is funky and the places are eclectic. Love the chips and queso. The chips are kept warm and the queso has a great spicy kick to it with lots of great tomato and pepper chunks. read more

Freebirds World Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Set amidst the really flashy, really shiny, brand new looking Highlands complex sits that good old fashioned burrito place: the one with the cayenne tortillas. It is also the "cheapest" lunch option we were able to quickly find with us being out of towners. Everyone loves Freebirds so it is an obvious choice. The people behind the counter were extremely friendly, way too friendly, calm it down big guys (4u) - at our local Freebirds they are grumpy as hell and pretty much let you know how much they hate you and your stupid burrito they are preparing for you. The Diet Dr Pepper was flat. FIX IT RIGHT NOW. This is a big issue. read more

Freebirds! Hurray! I saw this location when I stopped at the Container Store next door. I hadn't been to a Freebirds in a while since the one on Lovers Lane in Dallas had been lackluster the last several times I had eaten there, but Freebirds nostalgia won me over and I decided to see if the food was better here. I do have to say it was not busy and the staff ignored the growing line of people for a good 5 minutes. Finally, they deigned to look at us because we weren't going away. Once they started helping with orders things moved quickly. I got my favorite - the hybrid on cayenne, steak, refried beans, and guac. AND when I sat down and unwrapped my burrito it was as delicious as it should have been. The hot sauce on the table was the perfect accent. I will definitely be back! read more

Placed an order online and was told that it would be ready by 12:35. Went into the store and waited 5 minutes before I was even acknowledged by an employee. They didn't start making my food until they asked my name while I was in the restaurant. Completely defeating the purpose of placing an order online. The employee that made my food gave me attitude for no reason at all. Would not recommend this specific freebirds unless you want to waste 20 minutes of your time sitting at the register and getting attitude from some blue haired libtard. read more

So tonight we ordered the family meal kit. Our chicken was pink and raw. Won't be ordering there again!

FREEBIRDS, FREEBIRDS, FREEBIRDS... I have nothing but amazing things to say about the "Arlington Highlands" location. They're always professional, pleasant and prompt. The food is always hot and fresh, the team, consisting of awesome people like "Mariah" and others, are always willing to assist. Yeah, this location is the "bomb-diggity," and I hate that I'm moving away from the Arlington area. Don't take my words for it, GOOOOOOOOOO see for yourself. You will not be disappoint! #myFreeBirdsLocation #arlingtonHighlands #thanksMariah read more

I haven't been to a Chipotle in years; I know they're not owned by McD's anymore but I pretty much stopped going when they were. I quite like Freebirds but you have to know what to order. Their chicken is blandypants, the steak is ok but the carnitas are where it's at. I like the taco deal -- two tacos + chips & salsa + drink = $5. That's less than a value meal at most fast food places and it's got the illusion of being better for you at least because you can dump a lot of veggies on it. The hybird is still too big for me to eat in one sitting and it's the small burrito. I've generally been quite happy with this location. I go a couple times a month or so. read more

Can't go wrong with Freebirds! They are like Chipotle with more choices, and who doesn't like more toppings and choices!???--- um me! I love ordering from here we sometimes do from work we can call it in, and go pick it up, don't have to wait in a long line just go to the cashier, is always convenient! And by choices, they have different flavored tortillas, flour, wheat, cayenne, and spinach I believe. They have light/dark meat chicken and unlike Chipotle, they have queso cheese! And to top it off they have the Freebirds card where every time you go you get points to get add up to free burrito's, cookies or brownies.. I tell you it's a win-win situation. You know you wanna go! read more

Decided to try this location after having been to the one in Allen and honestly this one was not as great. We got steak burritos with Spanish rice on them and oh boy was the rice undercooked. It had a crunchy texture when biting into it which basically ruined it. The queso was okay not it was on the warm side, only plus side would be it was free. More than likely won't be back at this location but still visit this company's other locations read more

Worst plate of nachos I have ever had in my life, decided to order through door dash this evening thinking the service was going to be as good as last time, the beef on my nachos was literally beef jerky chunks, had to throw it away, I'm waiting on the door dash app to come back up so I can request my refund. This is likely to be the last time I order freebirds. read more

Usually I'm a Chipotle fan, but recently I've been on the Freebirds bandwagon! Pricing is fair, you get a large amount of food compared to most Chipotles.

Freebirds World Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I'll speak on my experience... The establishment was nice & employee's seemed quite organized that's literally all I can muster up to say as far as kind remarks go and this is essential why the one star even exist at this point. Now, I'll speak on my cons... Everyday at Freebirds from 2pm - 5pm Hyperbird burritos are $5.00. Step in just a minute or two before that and the staff will rush you down the line knowingly that the deal starts soon and cash you out so you miss it! I would know it happened to me on my very first visit to the Arlington Highlands location. I was cashed out at 1:55pm and the employee Liza told me after cashing me out so quickly that there was nothing she could do I wasn't going to get that deal I originally stated I was there for in the first place. However, The burrito didn't change my life either it was season-less, not juicy, very basic, nothing special, and didn't leave me wanting more at all. My final thoughts... Freebirds left a bad taste in my mouth and because of this experience I won't be back and also because their burrito game is so weak It couldn't even make up for the experience I had and again, I won't be back. In the end, the Burrito was just as sad as the service and needless to say I left a very Angry bird ! read more

I love how many delicious options are available. I can bring my kids, parents, clients and always know each person will have a great meal.
