Needless to say, I was super impressed. Don't expect Taco Bell style of fast food. The ingredients are fresh and you can order anything from a burrito bowl to nachos to tacos to quesadillas. Note that orders do not come standard with guacamole, sour cream or pico de gallo, you need to add those on as side items but the food is really great quality. I actually ate there twice while in vacation from the states.

I was so excited to see a Guzman opening close to home. Who doesn't like some good Mexican right?…read moreSo I dropped in to check it out the first chance I got. New places always have the snazzy new interiors, the eager staff and a cheerful vibe. Comparing this visit to others stores it was a bit of a let down for me though. The burrito seemed smaller than other places I've bought from, I actually had to go back and ask for coriander and sauce from a staff person who could really care less. And on arrival home I found the chicken was grisly. It was a let down. I had taken a photo but thought...who really needs to see that. I'm hoping it was an off day and that one of my fast food favs can redeem themselves on the next visit. I really wanted to give a way better rating experience for this place. Hoping for good things!

Almost everyone I have spoken to has said that Newcastle Grill'd pales to the one sin Sydney. Not…read moreas fresh or as efficent. We were told they take orders over the phone for pick up if you're in a hurry, only to attempt it once and be told to just to come in, that it was a waste of time. The staff are rarely helpful, often interruping and reluctant to make any changes to burgers or answer any questions. The non-alcoholic drink selection used to be amazing but has degenerated into the usual selection of pepsi and coke products. And the really irritating part is this place has NEVER gotten my orders right. We're not talking special orders, like adding or removing toppings. We're talking actually getting the burgers we ordered. The most recent order was for one chicken and one mushroom burger. We got two chicken burgers after waiting almost twenty minutes. The burgers themselves are fine, the quality varies. I've been greated with less than fresh salad at times. Grill'd is not cheap and I'm reluctant to try out the Newcastle branches again after such continued poor service. Unfortunately, another case of Newcastle decay.

Two more burrito challenges have been added since AND a dessert one. Finish and get your picture on the wall. I shared Amarillo fries to start. Curly fries with a cheese sauce. Didn't look like much sauce at first but it had gone to the bottom making most of the chips underneath soggy, which was a shame. The crunchy ones on top dusted with seasoning were yummy. My enchiladas were a decent serving with Cajun spiced corn on the cob and fragrant rice that was more rice than fragrant. Yellow rice is not fragrant if it tastes the same as normal white rice. $6 for a small side serving of avocado was too expensive. I tried my partners nachos but the beef topping tasted... manufactured. Like Mexican or bean soup from a can. The service was fast. We couldn't book for two people. They only take group bookings.
