Last time I ate there it was known as bulldog burrito. The owner at the time was outgoing and made sure everyone was happy. Unfortunately, its under new ownership and its called tomatilloS now. Prices are way too high for half the portion size it used too be. You have ro study the menu or you get charged extra for toppinga. The guy tries to squeeze it in carging yiu extra if youre not familiar with their ordering process The chicken burrito i ate had chicken similiar to chicken that sits at a chienese buffet all day long. Most of the burrito is rice and lettuce. The old place used to give free fresh nacho chipS. I askec this time and guy said it was extra. Things arent like they used to be, youre better off at taco bell.

The food is good but the value is poor. You can get an expensive burrito and pay extra for half the ingredients, easily marking it up over $10. Small scoop of guacamole is $1.50 and sour cream is applied sparingly from a ketchup bottle (also an extra charge). I got a burrito bowl that was only half full and mostly rice.

The sanitation was definitely disgusting. There were dirty pots and pans. The baja fish wasnt cooked through, it was actually cold and frozen in the middle. The food altogether was cold and on top of that, I saw the manager dip his bare hands in the food to fix his plate of food. I would rather eat chipotle any day!

This is a really really good Mexican fast food place. Their burrito bowls and nachos are very good. Only thing I could think of to improve this place is adding a decent salsa bar. However, I have yet to see a decent salsa bar like that Baja Fresh or Rubios (two Mexican chains in west coast) in east coast.

Pretty good food - my friend from the west coast says theyre pretty legit so... Your standard issue burrito is pretty good, and you can get mexican coke (which uses real sugar instead of corn syrup) wasnt too impressed with their tres leches, but eh, whatever

Very slow service. Loud, terrible music that I dont want to hear. Tasteless food. Unnecessarily complicated menu. Have the owners of this place ever stepped foot in a Chipotle? Cant they see the difference?

The food is just amazing ! And everything is freshly made and the reason why I said this is because at one point in high school I worked there for about 3 months and all of our food we made (cook)

Everyday is a different price and now all staff know how to make the food to standard. They also need to teach staff not to brush food from the cutting board back into the prep station.

Small portions, and expensive considering so many of the toppings are not included for free. Notice how the quality has dropped since the new management came in

Great place to grab a burrito with all the toppings you want. Everything looked fresh from that day, and was very affordable. Better than Chipotle!

Essentially its a place to go if youre in the mood for Chipotle but tired of Chipotle. They do fry up fresh fish tacos.
