This place is not only the best burrito in DeKalb, they make one of the best I've ever had! HUGE portions, tasty sides, pleny of options! be prepared to feel full for 4 days after, though. when people go for mexican, they want cheap food, and alot of it. you get it here for sure read more

This place is decent at best. I ordered their steak burrito which was basically ground beef and lettuce. I'd knock them down to one star, but their wait staff was friendly and their prices are decent. But, there has got to be other places that are better. The beans looked like they were from a can and the horchata was made from powder. On another positive note, the soups that were ordered by the table next to me looked legit. So, maybe I just ordered the wrong thing. read more

I like Burrito Loco. It's old and beaten up, but the staff keeps it fairly clean. They're friendly and will tell you about the food and drinks on their extensive menu. Also, on a hot day, wander in and get a big horchata. Make sure to try their salsa verde and the pork tacos. read more

This is definitely my favorite Mexican food in Dekalb. The steak tacos were perrrfect. Their tomato & green salsas are sooo good. My only complaint is that I have a rice obsession and theirs was wayy too salty for my liking. Not a fan. Other than that, it leaves me quite satisfied. The service is great, whenever I order for delivery the driver is very friendly. They said it was going to take 45 mins and it only took about 20! read more

stopped here on our way back to chicago because we were feeling hangry and needed something quick. the food here surpassed all our expectations! burrito was stuffed and we couldn't finish it, rice and beans very tasty! the grilled chicken salad was so fresh and flavorful! the employees were cheerful and helpful! the dining area was very clean. it was a very welcome and unexpectedly delicious dinner!! thank you to the owners! good job!! read more

This is my go-to place when i want a burrito! I usually go with the California or steak. If you're looking for a burrito, go here! Price is great as well. read more

ordered a burrito on doordash or uber eats a few months back. the doordash driver spilled my food all over the plastic bag that the box holding the food came inside of. he couldn't find my complex and the food was cold. the food was fine. didn't stand out from any other mexican places i've had and certainly not better than anything my tia makes. read more

Yuuum. We were pretty inebriated and needed something delicious, so we walked to El Burrito Loco on the recommendation of the bartender. Unfortunately, we discovered they were closing in 5 minutes, but surprisingly they were really nice and took our order anyway, quickly plying us with food so we could be on our way. I got a lengua burrito which I topped with delicious salsa verde. Sooo good. I will definitely be going back; I hope it's as good when I'm sober! read more

The burritos are MASSIVE and there several vegetarian options. Seems like the Mexican potatoes are sweet potatoes...the jalapeños are very good and the avocado portion is plentiful. Food is average. Place is very clean and service was excellent. read more

A wider set of choices than the usual Mexican fare. Tasty. Good portions. Pleasant counter staff. Authentic.

Tamales. Tamales. Tamales. Also, horchata. Add some green sauce, late night hours and oh so wonderful latino-tv in the background, and I'm home. read more

Pretty good the shrimp tostadas were good, the horchata was refreshing, I wish the enchiladas didn't have cheese on them when I asked for the verde sauce. Other than that O can't wait to have another churro! read more

Food is good. Plentiful. As I sat waiting for food, a table of jerk customers was making fun of me, but I didn't understand their Spanish. I was totally grossed out as I observed a girl clean the inside of the Horchata machine with a dirty rag. Not going into detail, but believe me, I wouldn't order one. read more

Staff is rude and unaccommodating. I ordered a meal and it was not as expected. I called back to let them know that the order was completely unacceptable and the guy told me that we would receive a credit for next time and there would be no problem. I recently tried to use the credit today and was told they have nothing for my order or name . Wasted 24 dollars on 2 meals that were not replaced. read more

The food here is delicious. I don't know why i didn't find this place earlier while I was at NIU. Nevertheless, I was here at least twice a week getting the enchiladas verdes. I still have to visit the other location in Naperville but if it's the same as in DeKalb, i'm sure i'll be a constant visitor and customer. read more

I am so glad I don't live directly next door to a joint like this. As soon as you open their doors, the aroma of Authentic Mexican (fast food) is going to knock you off your feet. That's how tasty their food is! Their entire restaurant is amazing. And you know what I really like? They have pretty good service. As soon as you come in, they are taking your order. When ever I visit Dekalb, my family and I love to indulge in their authentic Mexican cuisine!!!! Rochelle Young/Windy City Chicago read more

This is my go-to for comfort food or celebration food. Or bored food, reward food, meal time food, late night food... etc. The flavor a remind me of my favorite taquerias in Chicago, without paying a Chicago price. The tamales are home made and don't have random chunks of mystery meet like another Mexican restaurant in town, the steak tacos are the best I've had, and the guac sauce is always a hit with my friends. read more

This place is just meh. Went here once for a burrito for takeout and it was decent. When I came back to sit down and ordered tacos they had chips and salsa behind the counter that they gave to every mexican who came in but not me of course. Also they gave me flour tortillas instead of corn which is what I ordered. On top of that for over $2 a taco they were small, sad things. read more

I am not really sure where NIU students ate Mexican before they ate here, but it must have been pretty gross if this place is considered "delicious''. I don't know it might be the fact that I don't eat meat or cheese and that's where the flavor lies? But I thought my food was flavorless and plain. The person behind the counter seem annoyed as I take a while to order when I come to a new restaurant. Another problem I had with El Burrito Loco was the guacamole, way too many tomatoes and onions not enough of the green goodness, people call avocados. And the salsa, I mean red water, was a joke. I can see the appeal of this place its open late and close to campus. But I really can not see 5 stars that's a stretchy stretch if I ever saw one! read more

So good! I got a giant steak and potato burrito and added onions, cilantro, guacamole and sour cream. It was very yummy and really HUGE. I usually go to Chipotle when I want a burrito but this is so much better and cheaper! I'll definitely order from them again. Yum yum yum Edit: It's really hit or miss here. Sometimes the burritos are amazing and sometimes they're disappointing. The drunker you are, the better. read more

First things first they changed the name! So if you are driving around looking for it look for LOS 3 BURRITOS. Now to the important topic: the food. Home-made level quality. I was recommended here by friends who said it can not be beat and I can see whatthey mean. The corn tortillas are fantastic and the price is UNBEATABLE! The preperation is lighting fast as well, so if you are in the market for a quick, quality, and cheap meal. This is the place to go for authentic mexican food. ¡Fantastico! read more

This place is definitely properly named. Only other name I'd give it is El Burrito GIGANTE! The giant burritos are literally giant. Weigh probably 10 lbs. Opt for the baby burritos if you're not starving like an Ethiopian. I ordered a pork burrito, which came with refried beans in it, not black beans, which I thought was weird, cheese, lettuce and tomato. I added rice and sourcream to it. Because of how packed this thing was, I couldn't even pick it up. Had to fork and knife it. The burrito was obviously filling, but it wasn't anything to write home about. There was almost too much going on that I couldn't really taste each componant. It was just a big mushed up mess inside a huge tortilla. It came with a side of red and green salsas. Both were really hot, but the flavor was kind of lacking. For the price, which was about 6 bucks, and the amount of food you get it's a great deal. Taste wise...meh. I also got some Horchata or they call it Rice Water. After drinking it, I called it Rice Water as well. When I think of Horchata, I think of drinking a liquid rice pudding. It was very thin and mild in flavor. Not as creamy and cinnamony as I've had at other places. Overall, this place is alright. I'm not dying to go back, but if I find myself there again, I wouldn't mind trying something different. read more

Fresh ingredients. The only thing is they charge you ,85 for avocado when on the menu lists it as included. Sometimes the lady behind the counter is crabby but every time I come in she's there so I might be crabby too. read more

It was Cinco de Mayo and I decided to celebrate with Mexican food. I had some good suggestions but was really pleased to find Los 3 Burritos had delivery service because it is so close. I had not tried them under these owners, so I took the plunge. I was on Yelp when I saw them and was surprised that the online order matrix was reachable through Yelp. Ordering was simple and the order came in reasonable time. I know that I paid $3.00 for delivery but was relieved that the delivery person said "Here's your order." and didn't wait for a tip. Nice. $3.00 should cover my tip. I'm not a stingy tipper but that equalled what the delivery fee and tip is on other restaurants that deliver here. The food was delicious and so plentiful that it was also my supper. That chicken burrito was gigantic! read more

Quick delivery, not a huge fan of sit in experience, especially their parking lot. Overall would order this as a quick meal on a snowy day when craving good food. read more

We go here a lot for steak tacos, rice, beans and horchata. All are pleasing enough to return frequently. Its best when you eat in. Chips and salsa are good too. They are particularly awesome in the middle of the night when nothing else (good) is open. read more

Los 3 burritos is a decent place to get your Mexican fix. The price is right, and the portions are large. They usually have a daily special which includes rice and bean and a small drink. Also, I would say that their steak/beef has a tendency to taste off at times. However I now order their chili relleno (poblano chili stuffed with beans and cheese) burrito, and I have not been disappointed. Their gorditas are very large and filling, so I would only order two at most if you are getting rice and beans. Finally, I will say that the best thing in there is their Rice water, dear good that stuff is so delicious. read more

The Taco meat had no flavor rice and beans weren't that good ether the helping of flavorless meat was plentiful but besides that 10 dollars for 2 tacos? Was not worth it I have yet to find a good Mexican restaurant in this area but I will not give up hope oh and the bathroom was gross and had no hand soap so that's not very reassuring read more

Delivery took forever (admitted, severely cold and snowy) but was completely redeemed by the deliciousness of the food. I had the California burrito, which is like a standard burrito with fries added inside. I was told it's "kind of their thing" and was happy for the tip. Date had a taco salad, which seemed just average. read more

My friend made the ridiculous claim that Mexican food in Chicagoland was better than in California. Now, I still think he's crazy but El Burrito Loco definitely helps him start to make that claim. Their burrito barbacoa....delicioso! read more

Their food is always amazing!!! I tip the cooks every time, they deserve it! They are the best Mexican food in the dekalb area. Everything on the menu is awesome! You won't go wrong going to eat at this place read more

love this place. i have been eating here for about 10 years now. and i love it. real food and real people. i will always recommend.

Great food, they give you a LOT of food for the price of one plate, I ordered a chimmy chonga burrito and got a beans, rice salad and some other things within my plate, was great. I recommend for others, the taste was 4/5. read more

Best Mexican restaurant in Dekalb. Everything is good here...I've been going there since I was able to drive. Actually before that, because my mom and I would drive there. My friend who is from Ecuador always had me take her there because she loved it. That sort of tells you something too. Anyways, if you go, try and get the pozole, it's...amazing. Or the caldo de res (beef soup) is tasty also. I like the sopes, tacos, carne asad, huaraches, burritos...pretty much everything! Plus they are open pretty late...eat here! read more

Great Place! Great Chow! Always polite staff, Very Tasty food & fast service make this place my favorite Mexican joint in the area. read more

Hands down, my favorite Mexican restaurant in Dekalb! The quality of the food is really good and it matches the price. Service is always great and they're always super friendly! read more

Bad food first and las time been there totally waste of money taste less and really bad looking garbage looks better than them

ABSOLUTELY NO SOAP OR SOAP DISPENSER IN MENS BATHROOM!! Any restaurant that does not take bathroom hygiene seriously probably cuts other corners too! Found hair in our salsa and food tasted overcooked. My last time here for sure. read more

It's been a while since I've been here but it's just as good as I remember. Tonight I had the baby burrito yum...too bad I couldn't finish it all. Good service too. read more

Good steak tacos and great chorizo here! It's not greasy like at most places. Very tasty!
