If you want food after the club this is it. I don't know where they get the cheese but I've craved it since I was 20. The chili is still super hot so I avoid it but the chicken tacos make me drool! read more

Never had chubby's until last night; granted it's no gourmet fine dinning experience but I wasn't looking for one! I got what I came for!!! Got a couple tacos, I'd probably get again but the cheeseburger and fries will definitely get me to make the drive again! read more

Whew! Got a big kick out of reading the other reviews of Chubby's. I would like to start by addressing "KB's" question, "what is the big deal?". Here is the big deal Mr. K (for most of us anyhow), Chubby's is a North Denver Institution. Many of us who've reviewed have been coming here since our youth. So going to Chubby's and getting your favorite meal (Smothered Fries with Tomatoes and a side of salsa) takes you back to the "good ole days". To simpler times when you didn't have to worry about things like bills, employment, unemployment, recessions, inflation, Bush 43, etc. Chubby's for those who fit this description is good old fashioned comfort food. The Chubby's mystique is very often lost on Suburbanites...unfortunately. Secondly Chubby's remains well....Chubby's. Chubby's is not for the faint of heart, the weak of stomach, the low on character, the uptight, the wannabes, those without a sense of adventure, those who look down upon other human beings, nor those who believe they should receive a filet mignon in their "steak" burrito at this fast food joint. (A word to the wise...I never order any of the "meat" products from here) Their green chile is good and it is comfort food at it's best. The kitchen staff rotates and some times you get the one staff that's not so good. The people who work the counter are usually in good spirits and funny. Most of them know most of the people in there, having grown up together or with their kids growing up together. Be prepared to wait a long time for your order as everything is made to order. The usual suspects are there on any trip to Chubby's. Monica T's correct. I've gotten any number of marriage proposals from men ranging in age from 10-80, drunk, sober it doesn't matter. You will most likely see girls/women who are scantily clad looking for a few phone numbers. You might run into that attorney who helped you with that traffic case last, year, who goes by the name of "Smith" or "Martinez" or "Fusco" or "Chang". You might run into the industrial warehouse workers who are hoping to get their Mexican Hamburger before their 30 min lunch is up. Denver PD moonlights here. And unfortunately bad things have happened here during the wee hours of the morning. But Chubby's isn't alone, that's true of many places in Denver. There are no tables here, so your order is to go. Period. Yes long live Stella and the Ortega Family. They are greedy (I mean who else is open even on Christmas Day) but we love them for it. If it's a true Northside experience you crave (you know from before the "Highlanders" took over), Chubby's is your place. Oh and one last word, Chubby's is great for curing a hang over...or so I hear. read more

Don't let my Highlands Ranch status fool you--I totally grew up in the North $ide (yes, the dolla' sign "S" was intentionally put there to prove my ghetto status). I lived in the North Side (42nd & Raritan, to be exact) when all the Mexicans lived in the North Side and it was considered the ghetto. Before all the Hipsters decided it was "cool" to live in an "urban" neighborhood, and started raising home values and curb appeal... you know, when "Highlands" was still considered "The North Side" ; ) This being said, Chubby's was a landmark. It was our little chateau in the midst of all the North Side's glory. I would watch them handle money then prepare food. Hand washing? They don't need no stinkin' hand washing! Health Department who? Naw, dude. That's not how Chubby's rolls. In Southern California, all the restaurants get a grade, which they must display in the front window, by the Health Department ("A"=great, "F"=turn around fast, we're shuttin' down the place!) Chubby's would probably receive a "D", and that's being generous*. I can't, however, speak ill of my North Side gem (Seriously, I can't... if some of my elder family members ever figured out how to use a computer and discovered a negative Yelp review, I'd be disowned from the Garcia family.) As a little girl, I used to help my great-grandmother make tamales. We'd then sell them to Chubby's. Their green chile is good, especially if you're drunk. The atmosphere is a people-watcher's delight. My Godfather (who lives in California) makes me buy Mexican Hamburgers, freeze them, then carry them on the plane whenever I go visit--he's that addicted. The logic (and clean freak) in me want's to give them a 1-star rating. My heart, however, makes me give them a 4. *Last time I was there, they were repairing a bullet hole in the window and there was a guy outside selling gangsta' rap and cannabis belt buckles. read more

This has got to be the most overrated place in Denver. I love dives... if the food is good. But the food here is kind of elevated cafeteria slop. The green chili has the consistency of pepto bismol mixed with tile mastic. There's no heat. The burrito innards contained no beans and the ground beef tasted like dried, ground rubber. My plate of mush couldn't be eaten at their 3 tables, so they stapled a paper plate on top of the other in order to make it "to go." Really? I don't quite get a place that has had decades to carve out a little corner where people can eat sitting down, instead of in a parking lot. But regardless, the food isn't very good. OK, but not worth the lobby full of "People of Walmart" and gang members who fill the lobby. read more

First off, this location is getting 1 more star than the Arvada location just because of it's OG status. Chubby's on 38th isn't really about the food anymore, it's more about the experience. People way older than me have been getting the shits from this place for many, many years. And for some reason we keep coming back. This place may not be for you. You may hate the food. You might be afraid to come to the neighborhood. But as a responsible alcohol consuming Denveronian, it's your civic responsibility to come here at least twice a year for a smothered beef & been and a taco or a large smothered fries. I'll be the first to admit that the food isn't really all that great, but it has a flavor that is ALL Chubby's. I can grab a smothered beef, and on the first bite immediately be taken back to my late teen years, drunk when I had no business being drunk. Standing in the back lot eating a burrito off the hood of someone's car when I should have been home sleeping. I bet if I were to go there today, I would see at least one person that took my order 12 years ago. Do yourself a favor, stop by, grab a Mexican hamburger, maybe buy a bootleg CD from the guy outside. Give a dirty bum your change when he asks. (He WILL ask.) And ask yourself why it took you so long to take in the Chubby's experience. P.S. Don't save that burrito for too long, because it really sucks to scrape all that cheese off the bottom of the top plate when it gets cold. read more

There are pretenders and I even lump the off shots by other family members as pretenders! To enjoy Chubbys this is the SPOT! Its straight OG here you will find all walks of life at any given time! Friday and Saturday night is the most adventurous time to get your Chubbys fix, suburbanites in the know, gangsters, hoochies, drunks, crack heads, homeless, locals, not so locals as in the dont speak English, cops, street vendors, wedding parties (seriously one Friday night there was a wedding party in there getting specials) and just about everyone one else. Convenes on this sketchy little spot on the corner and everyone has their favorite! The egg and potato special seems to be the most popular, and if your like me you order it with some steak or bacon! Then there is the Chili Cheese fries, smother almost anything in Chubbys Green Chili and its bound to be good! Add it to a plate of slender fries and indulge, calories & fat who cares this spicy pile of fries and chili with cheese will make you wear your Kool Aid shirt with pride. You can start the diet next week! This place is a Denver institution and I would rather wait here for some late night food that's absolutely horrible for you then in the line at Petes. Even though you might feel safer waiting there, this place is better and more entertaining on the weekends! read more

This is an open letter to the owner of Chubby's. I am from the North Side. I have eaten at your restaurant many times over the years. I've just finished reading your recent reviews while I ate my mediocre tacos.You treated me very poorly You treated your other guest very poorly.You treated your staff very poorly . . I'm not surprised. Poor customer service and rudeness are the main complaints. I say I'm not surprised because the family that runs this joint has ALWAYS been down right hateful with a superior attitude. You're just like the rest of us. You're food isn't that great, it's ok. Stop believing your own press. This town has changed. You are not the only ticket in town anymore. Taco stops are a dime a dozen and EVERYBODY know how to make a good green chili. Seriously, get over yourself and upgrade from commodity cheese. read more

After reading my review for Chubby's from several years ago, I thought "Hey, maybe I was a little hard on them, I should try them again." So I did. My new verdict? Exactly the same. This place is terrible. I had a beef taco, of which the taco shell was stale and the beef was burned and not flavorful at all. I had a quesadilla which had velveeta cheese in it. Inedible. I had a chorizo breakfast burrito where the chorizo was bland as bland can be. Or maybe it was just overpowered by the awful said velveeta cheese. I also had a bacon breakfast burrito which was marginally better. At least I could taste the bacon over the screaming orange velveeta cheese. Did I mention they use Velveeta cheese on everything? read more

All I can say about this place is filthy establishment and rude staff. Everyone here had an attitude like you were wasting their time. And not just me but others in line as well. It was so dirty that I had already paid for my food so I waited for it and then got home and threw it out. No way I could eat it. How can this place pass health inspection? read more

A friend of mine said it best, "If you are at a Chubby's and you aren't a little bit scared, you are at the wrong Chubby's". There are other locations around, but this Sunnyside location is the original. That said, the best time to come here is late at night when everywhere else is closed and you need some food after a good night out. There are the strangest people here from all walks of life. Drunk people abound. The place doesn't look all that clean, and yet, you probably don't care. You just want your bean burrito and chili cheese fries. Your food will come on a paper plate with another paper plate stapled over the top. No fancy pants containers here at Chubby's! read more

Oh, Chubby's. How I love you in all of your artery-clogging glory! If you are a North Denver native like myself, Chubby's is a household name. I have been coming here since I was still in the womb.If you are a first timer to Chubby's, don't expect a place to sit down, don't expect phenomenal service, but do expect some new cravings to come about in a week or two. My advice with Chubby's is to stick to what you like. Find your nitch on their menu and stay put! Speaking from personal experience, I ventured from my usual chili cheese fries with chicharrones one time (ONE TIME!) and I felt like I was cheating on someone I have been in a long term relationship with. Dear chili cheese fries, Please forgive me. It was one time and it meant nothing...I don't even remember their name. I promise to be faithful to you from here on out! Will you please take me back? Your adoring lover, Sara B read more

Seems they are catering to people who don't care what mexIcan food taste like. The better onE is up on federal Blvd. food is bland.

This place is strange. From the outside it looks huge, but when you're inside you feel like you're standing in a closet. At least that's the way I feel. A friend of mine who lives in Firestone thinks that Chubby's is the bee's knees. I think he's crazy. Almost every time he comes for a visit he wants to go to Chubby's and I usually wait in the car with it running. I've only ever had the tacos here, both soft shell and hard shell. The soft shell tacos seem to be soaked in grease to make them soft. No joke. They are pretty disgusting, IMO. The hard shell tacos are mediocre at best, but are edible when washed down with a large root beer. They are cheap and I'll give them credit for that, but you'll have a gut bomb after eating them. Chubby's definitely isn't a place that I ever choose to go to, but I have witnessed some pretty comical things the few times I've been. I suppose that makes up for the less than mediocre tacos I get there and I don't mind placating my friends interesting palate. Maybe next time I'll try something else. read more

My usual tack when trying a new Mexican joint is "How hard is it to not entirely fuck up a burrito/taco/enchilada/quesadilla/insert other Mexican food item here." In that realistic spirit, I went to Chubby's after a night of alcoholic whoring. Not only was I happy that this place is only a 15 minute drunken stumble from my casa, but I was surprised at just how de-fucking-lish it was! I had a smothered burrito which was the best in recent memory. This place is positively great. read more

First time here last Sunday. Our food was wrong\ and not what we ordered. It tasted ok, but Santiago's is much better. The place itself was dirty and there were flies everywhere. Decided we probably wouldn't be back. Today I found out that the boyfriends credit card was way over charged. Lunch for two people that should have cost less than $20 was charged as $37. All you Chubby's lovers can keep it. We definitely won't be back. read more

Rude customer service. The owners sister does not listen or even let you talk . She canceled my order from DoorDash. The poor DoorDash employee went there to pick up my order and she canceled it . I just called Chubbys to ask if she can add deluxe to my order . And that I will pay the extra charge for deluxe . It's only like 1.00 for deluxe. Right away she said I was trying to get deluxe free and that her brother the owner has to pay for that . I brought up that I've have forgot to add deluxe before and that the Manager In the day time adds the charge to my card and I pay for it , Right away she said the owners sister that she going to tell that she give me deluxe. I told her that I always pay if I forget something. I will not go there anymore. I been going there since I was a kid . Not any more!!! read more

I don't see what the big deal is about this place. Is it because it is "the original chubby's?" Is it because of all the family feuding? Is it because it has been there for so long? Is it because it is so "O.G." as many reviewers say? Let me tell you....The chicken is boiled, so it is rubbery. The chicken comes out gray and it has bits of bone and gristle in it. YUCK! I wouldn't even touch the ground beef. The tortillas are old and hard. The cheese they use doesn't melt. Every dish has way too much salt and tastes terrible. It is usually cold. Well, don't take my word for it. Just look at what the other reviewers have written about this dump. These are from the "good" reviews of this shit hole. Gitana G. "Warning: Don't plan any long car trips the next day (stay close to a toilet.)" Jody L. "Every order is roughly the same ground meat and tortilla smothered in a cheese like substance and a gravy like green chile. You can feel your heart racing as it tries to cram this mess through your arteries." Monica T. "Right there on the side of the building. You'd step inside and it's about as big as a closet and it smells like Purina in the summer time" Douglas R. "Friday and Saturday night is the time to get your Chubbys fix, gangsters, hoochies, drunks, crack heads, homeless, locals, not so locals as in the dont speak English" Annette R. "Yep it's tiny, yep it's filthy" Kirsten M. "There are the strangest people here. Drunk people abound. The place doesn't look all that clean, and yet, you probably don't care." Monica M. "This place is totally sketchy ghetto" I LOVE THIS ONE........ .....Dom G. "People way older than me have been getting the shits from this place for many, many years." This place sucks! Don't go there! I wish I could give it negative stars. read more

The OC on 38th IS the original. Not much to look at and it's pretty much just put your order at the window you're called when your food is ready and you go. There's a few times I've gone there for their breakfast and most times I didn't make it to the office without at least taking a bite. I have tried the other so-called Chubby's, but they all fall short. If you really want to ge that spicy green chili fix this is the place to go. My choice hot smothered beef burrito with chicharones. Then wait for the burn! Good and hot. Tip- if you want to get lunch get there at 11am an you won't have to wait that long. read more

Waited 1 hour for my order. & they got the order wrong and the older lady gets mad cause I complained about it. && she answered the phone while I was ordering too. Tell her next time to place the phone call on HOLD it's was so disrespectful. read more

When I first heard of Chubby's my cousin and I were undecided if we should go there after a late night of club going. For a time I didn't go but eventually I did. The particular location that I went to was the now closed location in Arvada. I later found out the one on 38th Ave. Was actually the original one. Chubby's evolved into a Denver based franchise and stayed pretty much to the metro area only. As time continued to go on the family that owned the company started to bicker and had different ideas of their own as to how the food should be presented so lots of Chubby's sprung up all over town and many of them were grossly different in taste and quality from the original. The Arvada location was really the only approved branch location that the original owner consented to. More people started in with the Chubby's name and people were opening locations that were not even from estranged family members. So if you want to get back to the genuine roots as to what started the Chubby's phenomenon you have to come back to this location on 38th. Chubby's has great burritos, rellenos, tacos and tostadas. In fact I never had anything here that would be considered a bad menu item. I was very sad when the Arvada location closed because it soon became a place where I became a regular to but I knew that the original location was still in the game. Chubby's is perfect to go to after a late night of barhopping. This particular location even though the food is well worth waiting for has little to offer as far as places to sit. There a few chairs inside but if it is crowded then you will not be getting one. If it is nice outside though there are several places where there are tables and chairs so you can dine there. I was so happy to go here and get my Chubby's fix and know that I am still capable of getting one with this location! I would recommend the green chile on anything you order that calls for it. I have a weakness for their potato burritos and the chile rellenos so that is what I would suggest! read more

RUT ROOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! Major food poisoning.....down for the count for 46 hours! I did like the food, but can never set foot again...not even at the 7-11 across the street!!!! read more

During my visit to Denver, I had a few hours to kill and felt like a burrito. I remembered FiveThirtyEight doing a burrito bracket and found that this was the spot they chose to hit in Denver. My confidence in FiveThirtyEight has been shattered as a result. I should've turned around when I approached the restaurant from the parking lot and caught whiffs of what smelled like the bottom of a dumpster. I decided to press on and open the unmarked (unless you count the graffiti) door. I opted for the specialty of the house...the Mexican Hamburger. What I got was a low quality, grey burger patty that should make high-quality beef loving Coloradans squirm. The patty itself was clearly one of those Sam's Club frozen stacked burger pucks that I used to resort to in college. The "beef" patty was smothered in refried beans (note: I can't tell the difference b/w good or bad refried beans), tons of half melted yellow cheese, and a decently spicy red picante-style chili sauce. The kick from the sauce was the only saving grace for this dumpster fire. It was all pretty comparable to a chili cheese burrito at Taco Bell. It was a tortilla shell stuffed with gray meat and regret. I couldn't recommend this place any less, and wish I would've just thrown it out and saved my appetite for something better in my limited time in Denver. read more

Ok...back in the day, after a night of dancing, this was usually a pit stop for us. I always orded the mexican hamburger (with 2 patties even, i wanted a bite of meat in every bite haha). they were always tasty. I'm really not a fan of their green chile, as it looks like gravy, with shredded meat and gravy looking green chile just grosses me out. The taste is ok...but mixed all together in that mexican hamburger on a late nite after partying, was A-OK. During 2003, the year we lived in Denver, I turned my 9 year old son onto the mexican hamburger. On days that we are craving mexican here in Miami, and we're thinking of our time in Denver, its usually the Mexican Hamburger from chubby's he talks about, I talk about the Chile Relleno Burrito at Camargos - double good! and whether its the chubby's on 38th or the other chubby's they all seemed to have the same taste, so original or not...they seemed the same. read more

And the Chubby's drama continues on. The previous review is correct. This a Chubby's of the "Original" Variety. Not a Chubby burger not and El Chubby's but THE ORIGINAL CHUBBY'S!!! What most people probably don't know is that this is a hotly contested issue in the Denver court system. Apparently the right to call yourself the ORIGINAL Chubby's is worth it's weight in gold. Aside from the great, cheap food, the thing I love best is that I can see it's open sign from my house. So if I am feeling hungry, I can just look out the window to see if they are open. They almost never disappoint since they are open for about 20 hours of each day. The green chile is fab but beware of eating it while drunk. It is so hot that an inebriated chow down can leave you with lips that still burn the next morning. When sober, I have them put the chile in the burrito and temper it with a little sour cream and cheese. Delicious. Chubby's is always busy and it is take out only but call ahead, pop in quick to get your order and you won't be sorry. The only thing I would deduct points for is a complicated burrito ordering system that is explained nowhere. Deluxe, Special, etc - it is not clear what these levels of burrito are. The few times I have asked for clarifications, I have received different answers each time. If the rest of my review doesn't do it for you, consider this: If you are hungry in LoHi at 2am, Chubby's isn't just your best choice, it is your only choice. read more

Pure garbage and pure awesomeness. Yes, I said awesomeness. This place is totally sketchy, ghetto, and yes as a previous reviewer said, the folks around here do look like they just got out of the joint. It's exactly that kind of no-frills ghetto that gives this place it's amazing charm and the best damn burritos you'll ever have. Ever. I like food that reminds me of my travels to Guadalajara with my family. For me, it's ordering a burrito with beans, eggs, and chicharrones. The Chicharrones at Chubbys are absolutely perfect. They are crispy and chewy, not like pork rinds. They still have some pork and pork fat attached and are fried to perfection. You cannot go wrong by adding their chicharrones to their burritos. If you aren't comfortable with pig skin, i can't help you, because you definitely aren't at the right place if you can't handle a little bit of questionable content in your burritos. If you are looking for froofy, Americanized crap, don't come here. If you are looking for raw (the people not the food), no-nonsense, no frills, excellent Mexican fast food, this is the place for you. read more

Look, if you're looking for a 5 star restaurant this is not it. However, I have never had an issue with the quality of my food and I am a local who eats here quite frequently. The wait is definitely not ideal, nor is the customer service, and it is always very crowded, but I truly feel there is a reason this place has stayed in business over the years. I do recommend at least giving it a try,if you do, try the Chicken Flautas, Chili Cheese Fries,or smothered Burritos they have never let me down. (WARNING: The chili can be pretty spicy) read more

After another late night excursion here, I have to drop another star. Burritos are a disappointment, as was my chicken tostada last time. I had a sample of the Horchata, and it was from a mix- ^&^%(*&%!!! You would be burned alive even offering than in NM! The only thing worth eating is the chile cheese fries. Which are still darn tasty, and the best I have had in Denver. The rant started from a smothered chicken burrito. It was chunks of chicken instead of shredded, and no seasoning. I know drunk people eat here, but wow! The Mexican, New Mexican food in Denver has been so disappointing so far, I had to make my own red chile stacked shredded chicken enchiladas a couple weeks ago. I cannot taste the love. The tortilla burger is most likely your safest bet if you want something more substantial. read more

The green chili used to be super spicy and delicious. The neighborhood started to change and they remodeled the place to better fit customers but ever since then, the spice level has significantly decreased. I'm talking 50-60% decrease. You don't even need water to go with your meal anymore. I used to have to chug a big cup of Horchata in order to finish my chili cheese fries. What gives? I thought it was a bad batch of chili peppers at first but after so many revisits, it's clearly just the new norm now. Why not have a regular and spicy option for the tasty chili? I can't be the only one that noticed this right? read more

Yuck!!!! I live on 38th...it's so close to me...but I was SO disappointed. My honey went to get us bacon egg and potato breakfast burritos...with the green chile. I was excited bc I had heard so many good things... WRONG. bacon was burnt. Literally black. Ruined the whole burrito. Back to Santiagos for us....should have never strayed in the first place lol read more

At one time this was the greatest Mexican restaurant in Denver now the staff seems to not want to be there and treat you as such and the food has since got worse they need chef Ramsey to come whip them back into shape but the chili cheese fries are still always on point just they don't fry the fries as crispy anymore if there even fresh at all. Damn Chubby's ‍ read more

This is my absolute favorite Mexican fast food restaurant. Unfortunately everytime I come here they're always packed and lines are OUT THE DOOR! Any ways... When I do get to come here the chicken quesadilla is my absolute favorite along with the carne asada burrito! Their green chili is out of this world! Only thing is you'd have to like spicy food! Like I said their food is always on point but you gotta make sure you come on a Monday-Wednesday afternoon at 3-4 just so you don't have to wait in the ridiculous line! read more

I had heard about this place from many friends and was in the area. I ordered a chili relleno and some beef enchiladas. the food was delivered in a paper plate sandwich and it was pretty good. I am looking forward to trying the sit down restaurant they are building next door. read more

The green chili is good, sometimes, but their service is trash. They always mess up my order and they get mad when you go back to tell them they messed up. They really need a better staff, they're all assholes, especially the women. 30 min for hamburgers? Really? I went up and asked why it was taking so long and the woman answered with "we make them fresh". I'm sorry but 30 minutes for a fresh hamburger? I ask how much longer and she rolls her eyes and says "idk". I finally get my "hamburgers with chilli" and guess what? They're ordinary CHEESEburgers. I'm done with this place. read more

Yep it's tiny, yep it's filthy, yep it's delicious. I am not a fan of the flying saucer take out packaging they do here. It seems as if it would be more cost effective and easier to get actual take out containers rather than staple two paper plates together but hey, whatever floats their boat. When I get home and pry open my spacecraft I know I will be greeted with a sea of delicious firey green chile surrounding whatever burrito I chose (usually the beef and bean) There is nothing fancy about this place, the staff usually waffles between no-nonsense and surly but they are really fast and they definitely know what they are doing. And that is getting their fantastic food to you in no time flat. They do have outdoor seating that they are really proud of but I have actually never seen anyone using it, nor have I ever seen anyone eating inside, no matter how dead the place is (and yes, I have actually managed to find some times when the place wasn't packed) Since they have an ATM on site, I would almost rather they stopped accepting credit cards altogether as they seem to really hate taking them, however they have never once failed to thank us for the tip which is nice. Usually take out places like this don't even grunt in your direction when you tip them. Honestly though, with green chile this good, they could curse me out and call my mother a jackbooted crack head and I would still go back. read more

Easily one of, if not the best, Denver breakfast burritos around. I don't know how there can be more than one 'Original' Chubby's but this is where it all began. It's a dive and definitely not the safest late at night but it's still the spot of you want to know where the breakfast burrito was perfected. Excellent salsa (they actually know how to do 'hot'), and the bacon is always done to perfection. Easily blows Santiago's and all of the imitators out of the water. read more

During the 90's I ate here often. Had not been here since they put up the new building. Not sure what's happened but the food is not the same. I was truly disappointed with my Mexican hamburger. The patty was so tin and it was a low grade ground beef. Place was busy and most people did seem to be enjoying their meal. Staff were nice and friendly read more

Thinking Chubby's has the best onion rings in Denver. Seriously good. They're also open late which is unheard of in Denver.

Somehow saturday morning became breakfast burrito day. The hubby and the smaller dog go retreive the yummies. The little guy is raring to go each and every saturday, he's so excited when i finally get done with my workout so he can do "his job". I digress. This place had been on the radar. But it seemed a might scary from my drive past is on 38th... Alas, it isn't. There is a parking lot behind - bonus point. And extra bonus points the bacon smell vents right there! OMG! There is basically an 8x8 waiting area, you walk in. You order. Be aware at least for breakfast - if you want potato with your egg and meat, say so. The first column is just the plain burrito, second column (chili) means you want chili (green is what is standard, ask for red if you want it), third column says special that means cheese, and fourth column is smothered means all the previous columns but smothered! You order at the counter, then go away. You don't pay till it is ready. You can also order via phone. Alas, my experience with that, is they don't start cooking it, till you arrive and indicate who you are... I'm assuming you cut the line a little but, but if they don't answer the phone... well then you are out of luck! The taste - super duper yummy! I haven't found my goto option yet, i need to try them all i think. They are decent size and a breakfast for 2 is around $10.
