Best burritos, with so many options! They even have lo carb options. I'll go there again!

From the moment we walked in, the employees were unfriendly. Eye rolls and sarcastic remarks seemed to come before any actual customer service. The overall atmosphere made it feel as though customers were a burden rather than welcomed guests. To make matters worse, the food was bland, dry, and overpriced for the quality received. The experience simply wasn't worth the cost, time, or frustration. The staff showed very little courtesy or professionalism throughout the visit. Customer service training and a stronger focus on attitude and hospitality would go a long way toward creating a better environment for guests. As it stands, visiting this location feels like rolling the dice on what kind of attitude you'll encounter that day. Glad to have wasted almost $50 so you don't have to. read more

Great food and service every time! Chips and queso for the win! Kids eat free on Sundays!

Freebirds is top-tier when it comes to burritos. The taste is outstanding and phenomenal. The flavor is out of this world. It's so much better than the other popular burrito place when it comes to flavor and the chips and dip are great also. And I love that there is an option to grill the burrito. read more

Freebirds World Burrito - Tex-Mex Near Me - Tyler, Texas

Best burrito experience yet. Got us fresh lettuce and cilantro, as well as giving us plenty of food for our dollar. Shoutout Maddie!

There needs to be better clarity on what is an upcharge. They never told me potatoes were extra. Even so, the POS doesn't even break down what your upcharges were. Also the queso is not worth the money. it has some seasoning to heavy in it. and the chips are not fresh, they come in a bag and are too salty. The staff was generally friendly. read more

katelyn and isaac were both great! they assembled my poor steak and cheese only burrito in a matter of seconds and even managed to help me get a discount, i will return in hopes of seeing them again!! read more

Been a customer for 6+ years. Up until 2 years ago I would order a super monster, not advertised burrito size, and most of the time the staff would tell me they have never made on before which equates to a sloppy wrap. Not a great issue. My by far worst experience was 2 weeks ago the pulled pork was not drained off before placing on my burrito and made it completely fall apart while trying to eat it, not to mention the mess all over the table that I could not help as I was given my food in a bag instead of a tray. read more

Freebirds World Burrito - Foil art? - Tex-Mex Near Me - Tyler, Texas

First and last time here. I was halfway through my bowl when I found bits of raw chicken in it. Hoping I don't get food poisoning! One of the employees was also so rude when asked simple questions about the menu. Free birds sucks read more

Never again will I eat here. I recently got food poisoning from their Steak burrito. This the second time in a year that I've gotten food poisoning from free birds. I thought the first one was a fluke or even something else so I didn't think anything of it. This time I'm certain it was the burrito that gave me food poisoning because it was the only thing I had to eat that day. read more

food is always great and the manager or owner with the beard is always bringing the vibes 10/10 would recommend

Amazing experience, huge burritos at a great price. Not only does it taste better than chipotle, but they give you way bigger starting portions. read more

I used to love this place. However, last time I went it was terrible. I got what I normally get. The rice tasted off and made my stomach upset and burrito had no flavor. It could just be this location but this is goodbye Freebirds. read more

The service is fast, and the staff is always friendly. Freebirds World Burrito is perfect for vegans, and they have a multitude of options to choose from. I always get plenty of beans, rice, and beyond meat in my burritos. In my experience, the burritos are the best option. Do NOT order salads or nachos here because you will be disappointed. Also, their spring mix always has a chemically taste to it, so PLEASE don't eat it! Other than that, Freebirds is a great place to go for a quick bite. I appreciate the staff and vegan options. read more

Freebirds World Burrito - Freebird Beyond Meat Burrito - Tex-Mex Near Me - Tyler, Texas

Automatic extra stars for offering beyond meat. Probably shouldn't give 5 stars.. but for fast food options, this place wins in Tyler. It's better than chipotle imo. Customizable. Lots of choices. Fast, fresh, friendly. Outdoor and indoor seating. Parking. Neat atmosphere. Bonus points for corn salsa. The chips are crisp and not stale like Chipotle's every time I go there. you should go here for some fast burritos and burrito bowls! read more

Freebirds World Burrito - Burrito bowl and queso chips - Tex-Mex Near Me - Tyler, Texas

This place beats Chipotle by a thousand miles. The quality of the ingredients, the flavors, the guacamole, and the customer experience are all way better IMO. If you are coming from somewhere that doesn't have Freebirds, definitely give them a try while you're in town. read more

When I need a fast tasty meal this is great! Really nice staff. I'm a regular.

Doesn't look like much but I am somewhat diabetic so I had to pop in. The burritos are to die for, the customer service is pretty good, and the soda machine is awesome. Would recommend read more

Ordered two bowls to go. Both were barely luke warm and maybe 2oz of meat. You're better off going somewhere else.

Avoid at all costs. Placed an online order today, showed up forty minutes later and it wasn't ready. I was told the "printer is silent so we didn't hear it". I was then told they were out of beyond meat which wouldn't have been an issue if they saw the order forty minutes prior and called me to switch to veggies. Why offer online ordering if your silent printer doesn't alert you to make said orders? Such a joke. read more

This time I visit the Free Birds was highly disappointed. We ordered nachos and a burrito the nachos.Barely heading and cheese in all the other ingredients what kind of skimpy as well. The burrito did not have as much meat as it normally does. Because the staff was slow we did not want to make a big fuss because the line had became long behind us. There were tables that were dirty and you can tell they have been dirty for a while the time of day we went was pretty much empty except for us and maybe two other people and then the people that came after us. Even after there was no line the stuff instead of cleaning tables we're sitting around talking. read more

Stopped by the Freebirds in Tyler, Tx today. I admit it was 2:30 on a weekday. There were three other customers in the restaurant. When I walked in I saw an employee sitting on the counter in the food area talking with the 3 other employees. One employee took my order and the food was ok. I passed by a couple of tables that were dirty. I ate and left. I should have left when I walked in and saw the employee in shorts sitting on the counter where the food is prepared. read more

Freebirds has always been my favorite burrito place! Ive never had a problem with them until today. My boyfriend ordered a bowl with rice. The girl making his bowl only added one scoop of rice. He asked for more rice and the girl said "i can't do that, we need to save the rice for other customers." Since when? Anyways, as you can see in the picture you can barely tell there's rice in his bowl! read more

Freebirds World Burrito - Where's the rice? - Tex-Mex Near Me - Tyler, Texas

The bathroom smelled like actual cat litter which was gross and... very confusing? Staff is always great and friendly and the food is reliable. I've been here several times but it was my first time using the bathroom here and I'm not sure that I'll ever try to again. read more

The staff didn't seem to want to be there, not a smile or a how are you today, just sad robotic blah. If I was the manager, that would stop instantly. The burrito was just so so, just something to eat. I've been to a few other Freebirds and the service and food was mucho better. I wont be going back to this one. read more

Love this place. Service is always good and friendly staff. Love the veggie bowl. Brownies are to die for. Good place for the whole family. read more

Freebirds World Burrito - a bowl of mexican food - Tex-Mex Near Me - Tyler, Texas

I am so sad that this is the Freebirds that Tyler has. This is NOT your typical Freebirds. I am a huge fan of any other Freebirds but this one. In the past we have avoided this restaurant because the few times we have ordered, the chicken was ALWAYS burnt. This happened on multiple occasions to other people as well. BUT we are doing keto and I saw where they started serving Cauliflower rice! Yay! So my hubby and I came in tonight and ordered two bowls with steak bc we know the chicken is burnt... first, they ran out of cauliflower rice after my bowl.. so they tried to deter the hubby from getting it saying "it will take another 5 minutes" no problem.. that's why we came anyway! Second, same thing happened with the queso.. it'll be another 2 minutes or so.. no prob, I'm already waiting on cauliflower. But when it started going south is when the guy behind the two sweet little girls came out with the bag of cauliflower and THREW it on the counter in an apparent temper tantrum.. he proceeded to glare at us, and violently snatch the cauliflower back to begin cooking it. Y'all... this grown-ass man was legit throwing a fit because he had to do his job. We had been completely nice and understanding, but for this display of immaturity, I had no words. The topper was when my sweet hubby had to wait in line TWICE to get his order... all the while the man child glaring at him. Ummm... is he going to spit in our food because he had to heat up some cauliflower rice?!?! Speaking of sanitary conditions.. I'm not exactly sure this is a COVID friendly place... I never once saw any employee clean or wipe down any tables... not once. So, even though the food was pretty good, I doubt I'll ever get my hubby to step foot in this location again. So sad! read more

The helpings were good and the young lady who waited on us was very informative since this was our first time there. The burrito was bland and had no flavor had to use the hot sauces to add some spice to it. And the burrito was way too big and 10 dollars at that don't mind paying for good food but this place was a real disappointment!Wont be back. read more

today j ate here and when I took a bite I got my normal meal and when I took a bite some pieces of rice were hard as a rock and also the sprite tasted off like It didn't have the right amount of syrup, but overall the service and the atmosphere was great read more

I love Freebirds. Fresh food, with a free spirit and good music in the restaurant during my dine. I look forward to it at least once a week. read more

Today will be the last time we eat at Freebirds. We normally get salads and they were out of lettuce, didn't have chicken cooked, and almost doubled the price of the salad if we got the Texas Brisket. The employees were very unhelpful, we weren't greeted when we got to the counter and they simply didn't care about decent service. read more

My husband was the Assistant Manager up there until about a year ago. From what I know, until 2017 or 18 it was an awesome place with great management and so the employees and the service was equally awesome. Until they brought in this terrible person who used to manage a taco bell and it became less about how much pride they had in making quality food or the way they treated people and more about making a profit. The reason why all of the people who gave a shit about quality and service are gone is because each and every one of them either quit because they simply couldn't stand the palpable negativity and the manipulative and ignorant nature of the woman running the place, or they were fired for either trying to go to corporate about her behavior, or because she would constantly talk to her boss and blame others for mistakes that she had made and twisting anyone in authority around her little finger.....anyway, that is why the food and the service is now awful at Freebirds in Tyler, lol. I'm sure that you wanted to know all that. My husband was the hardest worker they had and customer service was extremely important to him. He was under constant stress and would commiserate at home night after night about ways that he could just make it through each day with her in charge and not feel like he was always on the verge of screaming, quitting or jumping off of a goddamn building.... And then he just gets thrown away like a used up rag. Funny thing about that is that he is now a courier for the UT health center and is still working fulltime during covid-19 and if he had still been there he would have probably been out of a job anyway. read more

I tried this place for the first time today. I used a delivery service. I don't know if it was the combination of what I ordered or what. I am very disappointed. The food tasted like processed food. For example the chicken was supposed to be grilled. It tasted like the chicken you get at the deli counter. It was cut up into tiny cubes and it tasted like it had been pickled in preservatives. It was not grilled as advertised. The queso was nothing more than cheap off - brand Velveeta-like cheese and rotel. It was too spicy hot. Not for me. I would not recommend. Even their brownies have an off taste. I get no pleasure out of writing negative reviews, but I think people should know what they are in for. read more

Time and time again i give this place a chance. Last straw tonight, the chicken was so old, and hard it was impossible to chew. Stay away from this place. Two years and they never change... repulsive. read more

No longer like it use to be. Food quality isn't as it should be. They don't care about cleanliness anymore either.

Love your food, but.......but.....sometimes your shredded lettuce and your Guacamole is old! I know you can do better.

Stopped by around noon and not too busy. 3 employees working, not 1 greeted me or had any conversation. No thank you when I paid. They just stood there and let me say what I wanted. I noticed they were almost out of steak and thought they would get more when I ordered steak. No, he gave me the last 4 little pieces. The food at a restaurant is important, but so is employees being friendly. I have been to almost every Freebirds in Texas and this location was the most unfriendly one. I will not be back. read more

My husband always mentioned coming here, but I was in no rush due to eating this before. We finally came. The service was great and we felt comfortable. The burrito I had was good. I had the child size and I was full so choose wisely the size of burrito you want. The food wasn't hot, just warm which was a disappointment. The toppings were comparable to chipotle, with a few diffeences. The wait was no time as there was hardly anyone there. I would return again. read more

My first bad review. Three strikes you're out. Upon arrival there were only a couple of other guests in the restaurant. I made my way to the counter and was asked to wait a minute. I said sure. They continued to make 5-6 burritos right in front of me. I asked and they said they had an online order come in. Not sure why an online order would take precedent over a customer in store. 15 minutes later I finally get my turn. They were almost out of every single meat so I had to get beef and chicken just to have a serving. After I got my food I tried to find a clean table but they all looked like they hadn't been cleaned all day. read more
