Burrito Beach

Fast and full of delicious! This place cooks up your order so fast on the grill that they’re practically handing you your bag before you finish ordering it! Pay no attention to the length of the line as it will melt before your eyes.
I have only eaten the breakfast items but the other items are the identical tortillas with different fillings, so they gotta be good!
I get the egg tacos (softies) and the potatoes are FANTASTIC!

I gave it a try again… and this time i had 3 steak tacos… well worth it & great staff

I’m surprised too at the bad reviews. I’ve never had any complaints that I can recall and I ear her 1 – 2 times a week.
It’s certainly the best value out of any food court option at Olgilvie. Most of the staff are friendly and fast.
They definitely have more variety than Chipotle.
I love the BBQ chicken bowl. Loaded up it’s only 7.17 WITH TAX. Try going to Jaffa Bagel or Panda and you’ll spend nearly 3 full dollars more.

FREE with purchase: Explosive gut-​wrenching stomach pain. Avoid. Ate here twice and got sick once. 50% is a bad ratio. Employees cant be bothered to cook food completely because they are in such a rush to service *1* customer they have to focus I guess.

NOTHING like the O’Hare location.
I stopped for a breakfast burrito with bacon. Not sure what was in that, but it WAS NOT bacon and frankly tasted horrible. Staff lethargic and not friendly, nothing like Karen @ Ohare — see my updated review for that location, but I digress.
I will not be back. I might as well have put $ 5 in the garbage as that is where the burrito went after two bites.
BLECH phhoooey.

One time, many years ago, I went to the beach and got burnt to a pink crisp.
Another time, many years later but still some years ago, I went to the Beach and got burnt by a chicken burrito which contained pink chicken.
I just don’t do well with pink.
Cut to the present day and the tenner I’m enjoying down at the Gulag.
Occasionally, the pinko commies over at the Gulag get us zeks a decent free lunch to enjoy down at the mess hall. Some of this free grub has been from the Beach, including ground beef tacos. Being terrified from the prior experience with pink from the Beach and equally terrified of the angry, overzealous, pinko guards and evil informants at the Gulag serving this grub, I was reluctant to try it until one day I finally relented. Working yourself to the bone under the whip gets a good little zek hungry. So I tried the ground beef tacos and…
…hey, Mikey liked them. And Mikey enjoyed free tacos from the Beach at the Gulag mess hall under the yoke whenever they came available going forward.
Mikey has even tunneled out of the Gulag surreptitiously to the Beach to get himself some ground beef tacos. Who knew?
It’s three tacos, tortilla chips and salsa for seven rubles plus. And they’re surprisingly good. Mikey will tunnel back to the Beach again, he will.

Nice cheap and somewhat healthy option out of the other restaurants of the Ogilvie Transportation Center food court. The prices are decent — you can get 3tacos with chips and salsa for under $ 7. The setup is very similar like chipotle where its an assembly line starting with the tortilla warmer maker. Next comes the meat, and then your toppings, which is comparable to what they have at Chipotle.
The time I came, I got the Baja Shrimp during lunch time. Not sure if it was a slow day or what, but they didn’t have any shrimp ready, so they told me it will take about 5-​minutes. In their haste to get the shrimp ready for my order, they didn’t really cook it through and I ended up with lukewarm shrimp. This is the first time this has happened to me, as I have ordered several times before. Maybe they had an off-​day.
The chips and salsa that came with the meal was OK, nothing out of the ordinary. Room temperature, unwarmed chips that have already been prepacked in paper bags.

Let me say that I love Mexican food ok I love food in general but Burrito Beach is the worst fast food Mexican place. Keep in mind I am not rating this against a fine dining establishment, I realize it is fast food but you can make good food… fast…I will say it is a step above a Taco Bell… it is pretty bland and has this imaginary flavour… like when you imagine something tastes better than it really did. I have had Burrito Beach here at the train station and again at the airport, I guess I never learn. same bland seasonless food :(. Everything was dry… the texture of the rice, the salsa even tasted dry? I asked myself how salsa can taste dry… well this place has created the first dry salsa. They also do this weird this where they press the burrito in this panini press after they put the lettuce in it so you get warm and cooked soggy lettuce? That was kind of gross.
The only thing that made the food even slightly better is the super friendly man that helped me. He was so very polite and had a smile on his face the entire time he was making my burrito. I wish he worked at every place I visited. That is why this place got 2 stars instead of just one.
If you are at the train station waiting for a train I would skip this place and go to another place to grab a snack.

Imagine Chipotle with less flavor. You can’t? Okay. Then try this place. Vegetarians should love Burrito Beach, because even if you order a burrito with meat, you won’t notice any. Rabbits would love it too. So much lettuce, so little time.
This place is an insult to burritos. And beaches.

Think of THE shittiest taco you have ever had and then the tacos here are way shittier than that taco you think is the shittiest you ever had.
I work in this building so SOMETIMES if it’s a funny money week I go get their 2 tacos and drink special for 5 bucks.
Don’t come here if you don’t have to. Seriously.
