For tourists familiar with Alberto's, probably.

It's actually pretty humble inside. Real old looking, like a shitty restaurant from the 90's but with less chinese food style tile walls and crap. A couple of plastic booths and wooden tables, cafeteria trays, and soda cans sold from a drink display.

Still, their food is fucking amazing, especially if you appreciate burritos that are just loads of salsa/sauce and meat in a tortilla.

Taco Bell is my favorite Mexican restaurant. The one near me is always packed with Mexicans too, so I know it's good food.

Dude, seriously, you live like 100 yards from Mexico and you are asking where to get a good burrito?

You snuck across the boarder and cant go back home right? But you dont have any money to go any further into the US so you are stuck there. Dont lie. I know its true.

This place on Addison and Lincoln in Chicago. The burritos here are OK, but the nachos are where it's at. None of that layer of cold Chihuahua cheese and mountain of cold, dry shredded iceberg lettuce.

All the toppings are pretty well distributed. And the cheese stays melted! On par/better than the ones at the Cheese Cake factory (though not as loaded).

The price sees a bit much for what they give you.

Any of you guys know anywhere else to get good burritos in the city?
>>
>>7706330
Honestly? Just a very white washed Hispanic who barely speaks any Spanish but moved here for work recently. That being said, would love to find a good local place for Mexican food. Like I mentioned, I have a couple places that I go to that are good, but I'd like to know of any secret places the locals would know of. Haven't been to Tijuana and honestly have no interest in going there. Don't trust Mexico at all. Don't speak the language good enough, so that's out of the question.

Middle of Iowa has a high Hispanic population. There are taco trucks in every major city and a few even go around to the small rural towns. Mine has one that stops by every Wednesday and Thursday. Even in the Midwest, Chipotle is a last resort.

I buy my spices from the mexican isle because you get so much more for the $ than buying mccormick or other name brands. You literally get 2-3x the amount for 1/4 to 1/3 the price.

Can never find dried basil though

I've been there a few times (chicagofag here with a few girlfriends at UIUC).

It's good Mexican food, but nothing really that special. I know some better Mexican places in Chicago for about the same price as Maize to get tacos or burritos.

yeah, don't get a burrito in central Mexico. Everytime it was literally beans and stew on a small tortilla. instant soggytortilla, need fork and knife, fucking suckes

>>7707232
Ha. That chain was terrible, but I've had many fond drunk/stoned food memories from that place. The place was almost always empty, regardless of location, and smelled like a cleaning agent, but it was nice avoid long lines at late night pizza places.

Apparently the one in Peoria/Bradley closed in place of another Mexican restaurant (lmao), and the Normal/ISU location also serves (surprisingly good) sushi.

I think I prefer Los Portrillos the best in that area. I had a weak experience at El Porton

I ate at super taqueria 4times a week for about a year or two
their salsa is good
thoroughly filling bean cheese rice (cilantro, onion) burrito for 3.50$ and some damn fine salsa!
>>
there was this place I grew up with didn't even have a name, just a sign that said 'taqueria' their burritos are huge, one of them, I wear was just a bit smaller than a two liter of coke, I have a pic of it floating around on photo bucket or MySpace, even without meat and guac and all the 'super' fixings, they wrre huge, I would get rediculously huge bean cheese rice burritos, once again, 3.75. they wrre consistently the biggest most filling burritos. even today theyve rased the price a bit (6.~~$) they're still way bigger than everywhere else
>>
in this modern age of 7 and 8 dollar burritos I've come to tart eating at Chipotle, usually way more fillings than anywhere else and a taste that isn't he same meat-beans-rice-cilanto-onion taste I get every single time from every single Mexican restaurant
