I was there on their Opening day. They occupied a stall at the Food Garden. The escalator at the Tower 2 will bring you right to the level where the stall is located. And, they operated like a Fast Food outlet. The items and prices are available on the Menu Board right above. To continue their culture in Australia, a party was held on their opening. On this day, free burritos and burrito bowls were given from 11.00 am to 4.00 pm. I was there early to join in the queue before it gotten too long d
To continue their culture in Australia, a party was held on their opening. On this day, free burritos and burrito bowls were given from 11.00 am to 4.00 pm.
I was there early to join in the queue before it gotten too long during the lunch time. The queue was expectedly long but it moved rather quickly so the waiting time was a short one. Staffs were giving out the menu to those in the queue. They even made the effort to answer the queries as well as to do recommendation.
We were entertained by the Mariachi Band that flew in from Columbia for this special day.
Staffs were walking around with Corn Chips and Guacamole dip. Steve, the founder himself was right there, too. He was at the front of the queue. He made an effort to make recommendation before ushered those in line to the counter to place the order. I would say the service was very attentive despite the long queue.
Though crowded but it was a smooth transition. We were expected to choose between the Burrito and the Burrito Bowl then to choose the type of fillings to go with it. Full menu was not available on that day though.
There are Burritos, Burritos Bowl, Soft Tacos, Hard Tacos, Nachos, Quesadillas and Salads available on their full menu.

A printed receipt was given with a number. We were asked to proceed to queue right at other counter and waited for the number to be called. I waited for a couple of minutes before collected the burrito.
My lunch partner collected his burrito bowl at the same time. It did not serve in a bowl as expected but a biodegradable box rather simply to those used for taking away in most eateries here with a biodegradable fork, too. A generous amount of Slow Roasted Pork was served with Jack Cheese, Salsa and Black Bean together with a good portion of rice.
First impression was it did not taste as spicy as expected though it is supposed to be the spicy version. The texture of the pulled pork was rather soft with a noticeable tenderness. It tasted well when mixed it with the rice and a bit of Salsa with some Black Beans. It was a hearty selection for a quick and rather healthy tasting lunch. The right amount of cheese added did not make it any sinful though.
The Burrito was nicely wrapped in a piece of aluminium sheet with a sticker stating the same number printed on the receipt and the type of filling it. I could feel the slight warmth when held it in the hands. It was quite a massive one and weighted quite heavy.
It was a firmly wrapped roll and made it rather easy to eat. The first thought was it would definitely be an ideal selection for lunch when on the go. I took a bite lightly to remove the skin of Tortilla at the end to take another picture of the ingredients in it. It tasted slightly spicier as compared to the Slow Roasted Pork i tasted earlier. The grilled chicken reminded me of those from Nando's quite a bit.
I would think the filling was of a generous amount particularly the portion of black beans and rice in it. It might be better to choose the Mini Burrito for ladies wanting a light lunch. The impressive service provided by the high spirited team on that day is worth commendable. I hope such a standard is to be maintained to deliver the same good standard of foods served. Though it might not be the best Mexican foods that i had but the affordable price is making it a worthy choice.
