Satisfying more than sumptuous, the food at this Cali-Mex chain is cheap, and made with healthy ingredients: brown rice, lard-free beans, and fresh veggies. The namesake burritos are enormous, weighing in at over a pound. Chicken, beef, and vegetarian versions all come with black, red, or refried beans, brown rice, and pico de gallo—tomatoes, cilantro, onions, lime, and jalapeños—and are wrapped in one of seven types of tortilla. Some of the more flavorful versions include hot and spicy barbecue chicken, grilled beef in a tangy tomatillo salsa, and a fairly convincing vegetarian chorizo. The rest of the menu spans standards like tacos, enchiladas, and quesadillas. Just about everything can be made dairy-free with tofu sour cream and soy cheese. And while the locations vary in size (and cleanliness), at any Burritoville you'll generally find the same campy Mexican movie posters and red vinyl seating.

Best burrito I've had in ages.

I came across Burritoville on Bleecker Street on a rainy miserable day in February. It's a small but busy place, with a free self-serve chips 'n' salsa bar and a wide variety of food on the menu. I went for the Mystical Frisco Burrito and was pleasantly surprised. At only $6.99 this burrito was a great value - freshly made with chicken, black beans, brown rice, and plenty of little extras to satisfy your tastebuds. Honestly, the best burrito I've had in ages, and the highpoint of a miserable day spent a couple of blocks away trying to renew a passport. Music was a little loud, but service was fast and friendly.

not bad

I like their food and their salsa. Good choice for a casual lunch. After receiving your food, it's basically self serve. It is relaxing except when certain employees play angry and whiny gangster rap.
