I was looking for a good vegetarian option near the airport and I stumbled across Mucho Burrito. It's similar to a Qdoba or Chipotle in the states. You can customize your meal just the way you want with protein and sides. Unfortunately, salsa does count as a side. I ordered a small burrito and after adding all the ingredients, they kind of massage/roll the burrito around to mix the ingredients. I liked this idea so that every bite was even. They also grill the burrito. Very clean and friendly! Would come back to this location. read more

My sister & I wanted to stop some place quick for dinner & Mucho Burrito popped up on our list of recommendations. I'm glad it did! This place is the Canadian version of Chipotle back home in Pittsburgh Pa (USA) so we knew we would like it! All of the veggies, grains, & protein options were all fresh & delicious! The pico de gallo was perfect! I'm a mild chicken wing spice level kind of gal & this was perfect! Also their cilantro cream dressing was amazing! The restaurant was clean & had plenty of seating! They also have an online order option available. The woman who assisted us was super friendly & helpful! She deserves a raise! Good friendly service & good fresh food! Can't go wrong! Cheers! read more

I hadn't been here in many years and I actually forgot why I don't come here. Let me just say that the food was tasty. I ordered a burrito Service was friendly, although English was not their first language. (very hard to understand.) Like I said, the food was good although the lack of meat was very apparent, one tiny scoop per burrito ! I don't think I even tasted what the meat actually tasted like. read more

I really enjoyed the food!! I had the salad with chicken and it was yummy. Lots of vegetables to choose from and healthy read more

Food: 4/5 Atmosphere: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Overall experience: 4/5 (1- Terrible; 3- decent; 5- Fantastic) YUMMMMM! I absolutely love this place for great, fresh, Mexican food! I stumbled upon this place when i noticed this opened up in Country Hills. I decided to go check it out because I have never heard of it before. It was one of the the best experience I had at a fast food place. What I especially love is how everything is fresh and fairly healthy (if you choose the right ingredients); it's like a Mexican version of Subway. When my bf and I first came here, we were kind of overwhelmed by the choices and the owner was there to gladly explain how it worked which was super nice of him. Their menu consists of burritos, quesadillas, tacos, salad bowls, and nachos. My bf got one of their burritos which comes in 10', 12' or XL. I have no clue how anyone could finish a XL because a 12' is HUGE and enough to fill your stomach up. I always have troubles holding it and trying to fit all the fixings into one bite. You have a choice between flour or whole wheat tortilla; what kind of meat you want (beef, chicken, pork, sirloin steak, chorizo sausage, fish, or vegetables); and a bunch of other fixings like corn, beans, rice, vegetables, cheese, etc.. It's definitely fresh because I saw them saute vegetables in the back. The burrito also comes with fresh salsa (mild, hot, green tomatos, or sweet corn and black beans). I absolutely love their salsas and you can definitely taste the freshness in it. I also find it nice how they supply you with a variety of hot sauces if you still don't find your food flavourful which is not possible; there is an amazing burst of flavour in their food. It is a tad pricey, you're looking at around $7-$9 for a burrito but it's well worth it for the taste and quality! The quesadillas are equally as good, and I also tried their nachos which is so BADDDDD but so GOOOD! haha or it so GOOD it's BAD. At first, it seems like they rip you off by giving you a handful and a half of chips, but then they top it with a big pile of your choice in meat and slather it in cheese sauce which is then heated in the oven so it's ooey and gooey. You can also add salsa and cream cheese. Among the great food is friendly staff. The last two times I came here, the owner was in the restaurant and was super friendly to every one of his customers. He said "hello", asked if it was your first time here, and helped clean up when you were finished. I like this location because there is a patio, a drive through and you can also sit down inside a beautifully clean and well decorated restaurant. You also get a great glimpse of their kitchen with an actual grill, stove top and oven which fast food restaurants often lack *ahem* McD Overall, Mucho Burrito is a great place for 'fast' food; nothing like taco bell and taco time. It's a little pricey, but it's well worth the money especially the burritos. I haven't been to the other locations, but this location has the friendliest staff I've ever met, and most of them happen to be Mexican like the young owner. read more

Mucho Burrito Fresh Mexican Grill - Nachos!! - Mexican Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

945pm on a weeknight (Country Hills location) and this biz was still open. Hard to find a snack/dinner at times late-night in the Calgary burbs that is semi-healthy on the fly. Walked in, no line up and ordered a regular sized chicken burrito made before my eyes in no time. With zero wait time in ordering. Friendly service too. What beats a burrito for a full meal? You have all the food groups in one hell of a tasty torpedo. All fresh. You can choose healthy too, whole wheat tortilla, brown rice instead of white, ease up on the sauces and just choose salsa. And little to no cheese. I have decided after eating my burrito in this second sitting (they are filling!) that I will be going there even more often than I do now. They made my food taste how I wanted it to be, hot and spicy and filled me up all for $10. read more

I received a cute little note from the staff. I had a tasty, delicious burrito. I was definitely satisfied with my order!

This is a go to spot whenever we don't know what we want for supper. I'm suprised we hadn't discovered this franchise before last year. Love being able to get fast food with a little less guilt. Our regular order is a mucho sized carnitas burrito, stuffed full of all the toppings we can get. The quantity of the items varies from time to time depending on the person making the burrito... shall I call him a "burrito artist"? They are always super accommodating when we ask for our burrito to be toasted extra long. As we find that it sometimes doesn't survive the trip home if we don't... I've had a variety of their menu items like their nachos, tacos, and quesadillas. All of the selections were pretty good, and I'm very happy that we can customize it to be "vegetarian" as well. The nachos are a bit messy to eat, but its supposed to be a messy food anyways. If you're able to catch them making churros fresh, they are to die for! For those with small appetites, they do offer a kids menu as well. I've ordered those for a quick snack for those hectic nights rushing off to work. Overall, not a bad choice for "fast food". Much better than hitting up a burger place, albeit not as convenient to eat on the go. The meal could get pricey though, as getting a mucho sized burrito can run up a bill of at least $11. read more

Mucho Burrito Fresh Mexican Grill - Simple menu - Mexican Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Like a sandwich place but for burritos! Good selection - tacos, burritos, salad bowls, burrito bowls, quesadillas Basically, you select what you want, the size, and then choose all the toppings. Great selection of meats (pulled pork, beef, steak, chicken, fish, others?) Toppings are great, fresh sauteed veggies, beans, regular fresh veggies, guacamole ($) and different salsas and sauces. The service was great and friendly. I ordered a burrito (10" was too big for me) and it was stuffed full with rice and spiced chicken. The other person ordered a salad bowl, basically like a taco on a salad in a tortilla bowl. Delicious! Would definitely go back. Oh, and they're licensed! So if you want a quick cheap Mexican beer and a quesadilla, it's the right spot! read more

Mucho Burrito seems to be slipping lately. It's a fine place to eat, but given they're to brand themselves as a better experience than your typical fast food joint, it's not really there. On my last visit, I stood at the counter for several minutes before someone greeted me. Given that there were several staff, it's an open kitchen, and there were only two orders in front of me, it seems a little lazy that at least one person couldn't pop over and at least 'be right with you' if they truly were busy. Secondly, the burrito seemed sloppily made. All of the sauce was placed on towards the back, so the first half was kind of bland. That's my other issues, the burrito was bland. I got the fajita mix with a couple additions, and half the burrito tasted like under seasoned rice. This is likely the fault of Skip The Dishes, but they currently have a half off back to school promo on a small meat burrito, except the burrito wasn't half off. It was around $5 (good deal in general) on the app, but when I walked in the listed price on the menu was a little more than $8. it was probably one of those small disclaimer "up to" deals, but when I double checked afterwords the wording was pretty clear it was 50%. Again more of the skip the dishes issue. Overall while I still generally enjoy Much Burrito, it's lost its charm over the years. read more

Whole wheat tortillas is an automatic 5 stars in my book! Nice little patio area, fun music, and SO TASTY. Staff was fast and friendly. I have every intention of coming back! read more

Mucho Burrito Fresh Mexican Grill - Perfect night for a beer on the patio! - Mexican Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

I'm still pretty pissed off as I write this updated review. We often come to this location as it's my sons favorite place to eat. Unbeknownst to me today was cinco de mayo and the burritos were $5, we usually get medium burritos so the savings of $3 hardly warranted the line up out the door. So I proceeded to the drive through as it didn't appear too long. WRONG The wait to go through the drive through was longer than waiting inside, in line- I know this because I saw an acquaintance walk in, right as I drove into the drive through. I saw she was already done eating and walking out of the restaurant as I was paying for my drive through order that took 1h! The worst part is you don't know how far in the cars are lined up till you turn the corner past the garbage bin! At that point, you can't back out! You're stuck! So me and my son wait, and wait and wait some more while each car transaction takes about 10 minutes- this is totally unacceptable! And that wasn't even the worst part, by the time we got to the window they were out of several items- the things my son likes on his burrito are, chicken, pico de Gallo, corn salsa, cheese and light rice, light veg, light beans and a bit of cilantro. Well to start off they had no pico, no corn salsa and what I assume out of chicken and cheese as my son said there were like 3 chunks in the first few bites and no cheese was present either. I ordered the Barbacoa shredded beef and found they were really sparse with it as well, but no sour cream in mine, my son revealed his did have sour cream and he does not like any dairy except for cheese which didn't appear on either burrito, there were however, copious amounts of rice and green bell peppers on both. My son couldn't get through his burrito so he took mine and said that it tasted worse than his. I would have rather paid full price than get 2 sub par burritos, really that $6 savings wouldn't break the bank and in all honesty, we both tossed them out about a 1/4 way through and were left bummed because we do prefer mucho to all the other garbage around. The older gentleman that's usually there during the day is the owners father and is such a sweet guy, I wish I would have just went in and monitored the process because I felt the drive though experience was kind of a rip off and not what mucho burrito is all about. If they had a sign out at the drive through entrance saying they were out of two of the most popular toppings I would have never drove through and made the purchase. I would have just come back the following day and paid full price for full toppings as we usually do. This experience totally turned me off mucho and I probably won't be back for a while. Cinco de Mayo $5 burritos sounds like a great concept but upon further inspecting the chicken burrito at home and no chicken was to be seen after the first 3-4 bites, I felt corners were cut creating sub par food to offset the price. That, an hour long drive through wait with sour cream on the wrong burrito and running out of fundamental toppings receives a 1 star from me. Adios amigo :( read more

Four words and two contractions: Tex-mex rip-off. I went for dinner there last night. My fiance ordered a meat salad (hard taco shell) and I ordered a fish taco and a small chocolate milk. Our bill came out to just over $20. I realize most of the ingredients are fresh but come on... $20?? The food was OK for being a tex-mex place. If they are trying to pass themselves off as authentic Mexican (I think they're smarter than that) then they have another thing coming. Food OK.. Service, not so good. The people working there were fine but look like they hated their jobs and the guy that served us kept mumbling. With the noisy music playing we had to continually ask him to repeat himself. When he did he made it sound like a burden that he had to repeat himself. I'll probably only go back if I have a coupon and I'm really desperate for some faux Mexican food. read more

I love this Mucho Burrito location, it's very clean and cosy. There are many vegetarian options available which is always a good thing. I love the drinks they offer, they're different from the typical coke/Pepsi etc. Would recommend it again. read more

Mucho Burrito offers great, much more authentic mexican food than you would get at Taco Time for example. The burritos are substantial and a "Mucho" sized one can feed two people. I really like their salads and the fact that you can completely customize everything to your exact tastes. read more

This has become my favourite 'fast food' joint! The best part is fresh, quality ingredients - not subpar like some other burrito joints. The place always looks clean, fun, and exciting, and service is great. I can grab a delicious meal that is Whole30 compliant, gluten free, dairy free, etc. So delicious! read more

"we are too busy ..." I usually called ahead and pick up my order. Last time I called, they simply said they are too busy and will not take take-out order at that time. Well, with that kind of service, I hope they will never have to take any orders any more and ran out of business quickly . read more

Th worst thing you can do in customer service when in the food industry is to not refund the purchase when there is a problem. I was there 2 days ago and asked for no peppers or onions. I got peppers and onions. No problem. Mistakes happen. I called and had to leave a message. No return call the next day. I went in and explained it all. NO REFUND. I'm disappointed that Victor is willing to lose a customer over $8.00. Hopefully your day gets better and you are not as rude to the next customer. read more

This is by far the BEST Mucho Burrito location. I've always had awesome friendly and quick service. The drive thru is the best thing ever (mom with small kids). I've been served a few times by the Mexican owner and he's funny, friendly and His staff all seem happy to be there. They have this massaging/ mixing technique that they do and I swear that's all the difference in why the burritos at this location are that much better. read more

I went out of my way to write this review for this guy... I am terribly sorry I didn't get his name. He ran out of the store and chased my car down because he forgot my tortilla soup from my order. The guy seriously sprinted all out like the T1000 on terminator 2! it was unbelievable.. This guy was dedicated to service. I can say that anyone I've dealt with at this location has always been courteous but this guy showed me probably the best service I have seen anywhere. A lot of people say that the customer service in Calgary sucks, which it generally does, but this guy raised the bar a bit for Calgary. read more

Best burrito in the area, always fresh. Even better than the American Chipotle franchise!

The food is ok. Got rid of tilapia burritos which was unfortunate. Money can be spent elsewhere on better food

As far as fast food goes mucho burrito always serves a fresh and quality product. I typically stick to the pollo burrito. They put perfect proportions of meat to rice to veg in every burrito. The staff is friendly and helpful. I will return to this location time and time again. read more

I've recently discovered this place - way to go for a custom made how you want Mexican food made to order, although I do find the prices a little high. If the prices weren't so high I would come in more often. I can't believe they're always trying to sell me guacamole for $1 for a scoop - that should be automatically included without extra cost. Staff are friendly, courteous & remember us but when paying for a quick burrito or 2 & paying debit & wanting a tip?! seriously!? read more

I have been coming to this location for a year and always get the same things - beef burrito bowl. I opt out of a couple items (beans and veggies) and ask for lettuce instead. Today the guy put up a fuss, argued with me and said I couldn't have it as it was only for "salads"...seriously?! He also skimped on all the ingredients making the bowl only half sized. By the items I don't get, substituting a tiny handful of lettuce shouldn't be a big deal but apparently it's not allowed! He didn't even say it could be an extra charge he just downright said no. This is the last time I come to this location, clearly zero customer service. read more

This is a great Mexican style restaurant! I go there often for lunch, and each time, the service has been fantastic! The food is always fresh and the portions are very generous. It is a great value and a healthy alternative...much better than some of the fast food choices out there! The nachos are amazing!!!! I have also had the quesidillas and the beef tacos are definitely one of my favourites. The staff are friendly, the restaurant is clean and the mexican music is definitely a nice touch! Will be a long time customer and would recommend it to anyone!! read more

I love the food here, we eat here almost weekly. and the service by every staff member but one is beyond spectacular. when we first started going about two years ago, the older man at the register was really nice and genuine. in the recent months, ive seen him be rude and dissrespectful (very raised voice, condescending, and throwing his hands up in frustration) to his staff. I dont know if he's the owner, but regardless, one should not be treated like crap by management. it makes my spouse and I uncomfortable. last week, we made the error of asking for "chips and cheese", and he stood and glared at us until we said "queso". to which he begrudgedly went to get it. at first, I thought his attitude was him having a bad day. but ive seen this go on for several months. the downgrade in experience from this one particular man is why I am giving them a single star. read more
