4-480 Brant Street South, Burlington, ON L7R 2G4, Canada
We love chef-inspired tacos, tequila drinks, good music (according to us), vegetarians, bourbon, graffiti, vegans, mood lighting, queso, and you. We should also mention that our menu is 100% gluten-free - and we are 100% serious about that.
Excellent food but quite probably the best service I've ever had. Finding good tacos is not always easy, when you do, it is probably best to pig out. This place rather uniquely sells you individual tacos so if you wanted to try a variety of them you can, yes you pay more for that luxury but it enables you to go solo and try different flavours (if you wish). However our server was the icing on the cake, frankly we wanted him to join us and be our friend - we absolutely loved him.
I ate almost every Taco. Each taco better than the one before. The cost is worth it. Amazing service, amazing hot sauce (they sell it too) but it’s the food that is exceptional. I also loved my virgin margarita, made exactly like I wanted.
Love Burro! The tacos and appetizers here are very consistent and always flavourful! We always leave satisfied and full and the portions are worth the price! The staff here are amazing and accommodate with dietary restrictions, not to mention they are 100% gluten free - so a great spot for those who are sensitive to gluten or celiac. Service is very fast and you get your food fairly quick. I highly recommend making a reservation because they are always booked for the night and it can be hard to walk in and get a table. Definitely a local favourite and a neighbourhood gem. If you’re ever in Burlington and are hungry af, Burro is the spot for you!
Indoor and outdoor seating, with good music that sets a nice vibe. Guacamole and chips were very good with a lot of Guac, seasoning and pumpkin seeds. Fish tacos were moist and melts in your mouth. Chicken tacos were a bit dry. Beef tacos were classic, and pulled pork was very flavourful. Watermelon peach slush is so refreshing and I loved the mango ginger beer refresher. Churros and cream for dessert were a hit, and went so well together with small crunchy bits of chocolate.
Burro Tacos and Tequila, located at 4-480 Brant Street South, Burlington, ON L7R 2G4, Canada, is a small restaurant with big flavors. My husband and I discovered it last night when we were searching for a gluten-free restaurant open around 9pm. Our Find Me Gluten Free app led us here. The tacos are outstanding; I had the fish tacos, and my husband had the chicken tacos. We also ordered the El Basa Ceviche, which was fantastic. Everything is 100% gluten-free. Today, I decided to return and try their cocktails, and they were excellent. The place is small, so reservations are recommended. However, if you go late at night or, like me, around 1:30pm, there’s usually no wait, and I was seated immediately, perhaps because I was alone. I would rate this place 10 out of 10.
A great spot in downtown Burlington for some awesome tacos and appetizers. Love it when a place pushes their creativity to create new bold flavours with unique ingredients. Best regards. 😋👌
We love this place - it's a lifesaver for people who require a gluten-free diet. All their tacos are awesome, but the fish and fried chicken are next level. Vegetarians win too - their Brussels sprout taco is the bomb! Staff is super friendly. Heads up: reservations recommended, this place is always packed! They even have gluten-free beer (score!), but just a warning that the portions for apps and tacos are a bit smaller and the price is a bit higher. Totally worth it though, the taste is amazing!
Love this place! Very small but very good, the prices are good for the area. The tacos are small but filling and full of flavour. The tacos and queso dip were very good. I would probably suggest making a reservation if you’re going at a busy time/day because it’s a small place but if not then you should be good. Service was friendly, fast and efficient. Love the atmosphere, overall very good and will be back.
The food here was really good and flavourful. I recommend the chicken tacos and cheese puffs. The only negative thing about this experience were the absurd prices. $7 for one taco!? We spent $61 on this so if you really wanted to feel full you d have to spend near $100!!! So in the end you don t feel like you had a full hearty meal. It was more like an appetizer. We also asked for a small side dip which came half empty but we got charged $1.50 for it. It just all seems a bit excessive
I loved the atmosphere. Though the tacos were not that great - had fish tacos and fried chicken tacos: both were okayish Food
Amazing tacos & super friendly service. Perfect place for Mexican food lovers who are gluten and dairy free!
Great little hole in the wall! Tequila flights, and authentic corn flour tortilla tacos name a better combination! Being from out of town I am so happy I stumbled upon this place
Delicious tacos and killer margaritas. Try the fish tacos - especially the new blackened fish - are deelish! Gluten free across the restaurant and always accommodate my food intolerances of dairy, soy and egg no problems! Vegan friendly. Fun atmosphere and very quick service. A great place for a quick bite or a fun date.
Nice patio and amazing tacos Excellent vegan options.
While the menu is slightly different than its sister restaurant in Hamilton (The Mule), Burro is the same excellent quality of food, great service, and comfortable ambiance. Since Im vegan, I usually order their veggie options and have them adjust them slightly, which they do without question. The food is made-to-order with fresh ingredients, and the flavour combinations are wonderful.
Love, love, love Burro! Gluten free eating at its best, and those without celiac would never know the difference. The only thing that would make my Burro visits better, would be if they would bring back the Crispy Bourbon Chicken taco and the OG sweet potato taco. Those were epic! Dietary restrictions: The food is entirely 100% gluten free!
EVERYTHING.....gluten free! Delicious food, fast friendly service, great atmosphere .!!!
Love this place, truly a Burlington staple. Emma is the best server. She has an incredible attention to detail and always makes sure we are well taken care of. The prices are great, drinks are delicious & the service tops it all off. Thank you for a great time, every time!
So delicious! I had to double my order, when I only came in for a snack haha! I cant wait to visit again.
Without a reservation it is difficult to get a seat at peak times. Once youve made it in, delicious appetizers and world-class taccos await you. Nice and attentive service is on top. Prices are fair. Dietary restrictions: 100% gluten free
Amazing Margaritas and tacos and the nachos are amazing
My boyfriend and I were in a rush and went for the first time to order takeout. What was originally going to be a 30 minute wait, turned into having our food and drinks ready to go within 10 minutes. Thank you Karina for going above and beyond and for ensuring we were taken care of. The food was great too!
Tacos were delicious! The staff were extremely attentive and catered to my wifes allergies. We had a great time and will definitely be returning.
Great spot for tacos and drinks. Just a low key, quality, place.
Dietary restrictions: Gluten allergy and everything is gluten free Food
First time here. LOVED the brisket taco. Was not crazy about the fish one. Love the concept of trying different tacos on the same plate.
Great food and service, but music is not appropriate. Seems like the music is more for staff than for patrons. Dietary restrictions: They are 100% gluten free.
Great tacos and service, just a bit pricy but the menu is unique and delicious!
Pretty standard taco place! The achiote chicken tacos were the best, with the pork, jalapeño chicken, and fish tacos being pretty subpar. Nice little joint in the heart of Burlington. Service was great, prices were a little much. Disappointed that they were out of their house beer, though. Also I think there is a mandatory 18% tip even though we were only a party of 3? A bit turned off by that.
The tacos and margaritas were very delicious. It was my first time having fried fish tacos and I loved them. It is also recommended for many tourists.
This place was delicious - some fun drink options and great food and atmosphere.
The best Tacos ever!
This place is phenomenal! The food is the best Ive had since growing up in Southern California, their drinks are killer and their staff is all incredibly friendly and helpful. Cannot recommend this place highly enough! Do yourself a favour... Go and get some tacos Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options to choose from!
Service was spectacular, the queso fresco was delicious as were the tacos I would definitely recommend the chorizo, the Brisket and the Ancho Chicken but only if you like spice for all of the above. The classic margarita was also amazing. Would definitely run back to this place in a heartbeat.
I had lunch at Burro with my partner and my brother. We shared nachos to start, and we each had 2 tacos (fish, jalapeño chicken, weekly special) and all the food was great. The staff were very friendly, and the atmosphere is very intimate. The only thing I would have changed is the service was a tad slower than I m used to (granted they had limited staff that day) and the music they had playing was not very universal. They were playing a lot of rap music which I don t personally love, I was expecting more of a Mexican/Latin vibe, but it felt more like a teenage house party All in all, I would visit again, maybe just with a younger group.
They have a good deal of $7 a taco, and you can mix and match. Of the four we got, I highly recommend the Brussels sprouts taco.
Waffle churros go crazy Dietary restrictions: All stuff is gluten free very cool Food : 5/5 |
I did my research before choosing this place, which had a 4.4-star rating at the time of writing. Everyone has their own taste, so heres my experience: - Upon arrival, we didnt feel welcomed. There was no greeting, and the server simply asked if we had a reservation (we didnt) and whether we preferred to sit inside or outdoors (we chose outdoors). - The seating felt cramped, both indoors and outdoors.We ordered a few drinks and an appetizer, which I found overpriced, though its understandable given the downtown location. - The food menu is limited, but we came for the tacos, expecting something exceptional since this is their specialty and each taco is priced at $7. Unfortunately, we were disappointed. The only taco we enjoyed was the Brussels Sprouts. We also tried The O.G. Fish, the Jalapeno Fried Chicken, and the Cease and Desist, but they were cold, bland, dry, and had a tough bite to them. Overall, I would give this place 2 stars and do not plan to return.
Best tacos in town
Extremely rude staff. Empty tables but they wouldn t accommodate me and my daughter. We waited for 30 minutes for our takeout order at the restaurant and those tables remained empty. Food tasted bland and not fresh. Would not recommend.
Great taco place in Burlington! I love how streamlined the ordering process is. Try a bunch of small tacos. Each of which has been carefully curated to provide a unique experience. I will note that I love spicy food. Many of the items are spicy but there are a couple menu items to accommodate those who are enthusiastic about spicy food. Also, a great drink menu!
If you like deep fried proteins, I highly recommend the OG fish, the jalapeno fried chicken, and the mole broccoli. The tacos are quite filling with a good balance of protein and vegetables.
Food was good and the staff were very friendly and attentive. Lots of options. Great option for those that have allergies or intolerances to gluten. Dietary restrictions: Everything on the menu is gluten free
They definitely should improve their tacos
My partner and drove from Cambridge just to eat tacos and boy were we not disappointed. Service and food was soooo good, we talked about how good the tacos were for the rest of the night. Highly recommended
Just got a couple tacos for take out ..amazing! And the service was incredible (thank you Fred)!!
Not what it used to be... All the food tasted like it was reheated, definitely not fresh. The server didnt even bother to check in on how the food was or if we needed anything - it was also not a busy time. Wont be returning.
3pm-5pm happy hour for margs and wellys brought me and my mother in, those habanero brisket tacos, basa ceviche, and tequila flights will bring us back not a ton of seating inside but enough and a lovely little covered side patio. Friendly and helpful staff willing to go the extra mile to make your time perfect. Was there Thursday July 11th so thank you to our server/bar and kitchen staff on you are very appreciated:)
Delicious. You wont regret the food here. Margaritas are amazing!
A little pricey for tacos with minimal ambience. Food is good though
First time trying this place. Loved the fish and brussel sprout tacos. Service was great as well. Very attentive and never felt rushed. Will definitely be back.
Expensive delicious tacos
Good selection, creative menu. The brussels sprout taco will knock your socks off
Vegan tacos were delicious
The tacos are awesome. I had 1 each of the Habenaro Brisket, Jalapeño Fried Chicken, and the Chorizo Pork Shoulder. All of them were delicious, but the real standout for me was the Brisket taco. Id have all 3 again. I paired the tacos with the House Cerveza which was the Wellington Helles Lager... delicious. The service was great and the restaurant was nicely decorated with a nice atmosphere. Well be back! Parking: There are a couple of paid city lots in behind the restaurant but otherwise its street parking.
We found this location on the find me gf app and so happy we did. Incredible gluten free tacos and churro s. So glad we detoured off our route to go there!! We had the cease and desist, o.g fish and brussell sprout tacos. Close to the beachfront so we took our food to go and enjoyed the view. Dietary restrictions: Dedicated gluten free with vegan and vegetarian options
I gauge taco restaurants by how well they do their fish taco and Burro did not disappoint! The food was really really tasty and I would definitely go back again. Its a cute area with a small vintage store tucked behind the restaurant.
I am not going to recommend this place to any coloured skin person. Worst customer service Server at this place is quite racist while offering tables for din in to coloured skins This happened to me and my husband today, so we left without food.
Amazing dinner for the five of us at Burros! The chorizo pork nachos were sooo good and the homemade guacamole. We all selected three different varieties of tacos. All delicious. These aren t your typical tacos. More like gourmet tacos. The toppings complement each taco perfectly. Ended dinner with the donut, vanilla custard with coconut cream dessert! Great food, service & experience. Will definitely return.
Fresh food with decent prices Was disappointed with the Queso Fundido, barely got any dip but the tacos and drinks were great. Service was good and atmosphere was nice but seating was tight.
Patatas Bravas were really good. We had the fish tacos (with very minimal coleslaw on it) and the carnitas, which both were under mediocre for the quality, quantity and price (7$ for a tiny taco). Ceviche was decent, also. EDIT: Thanks for the response. I will give this another try in the future, however, not content with the amount served in each taco.
Food was amazing, so glad it s a safe gluten free restaurant. The only complaint that I had was we felt very rushed. The waitress kept hinting throughout our stay that there was another reservation, we drove 1.5 hours to get there and felt like we had to rush our meal. Felt rushed to figure out what we wanted to eat. Food amazing, but they should really consider spacing out their reservations and not rush people. I was a hit turned off by that.
The entrance door was locked !!! We were there at 4.30 pm
Great atmosphere! The food was a hit and miss. The pork belly on the Nachos was mostly fat. Otherwise the nachos were decent but the cheese was very similar to cheese wiz, so if your into that you are set! The portion sizes were very small for $7 tacos.
The kitchen team deserves huge props, I loved the Halloumi tacos, OG Fish, Brisket and the sleeper favourite was the Achiote chicken!! On an emphatic sidenote, my server Liv is a true credit to her profession. So lovely intuitive and hospitable. What a gem
Great food! Lots of veg options. Decor is cute and service is excellent. We went in for weekend lunch and tried guac and chips for starters and all three types of vegetarian tacos. Amazing, the Brussels sprouts tacos is our fav. Outdoor patio is nice too. Will be back for more. Vegetarian options: You won t be disappointed, there are many options for vegetarian and vegan s. Flavourful.
Service is great even though it looks like they re understaffed - our server was super friendly. Drinks are tasty. The food however was quite underwhelming - small portions that lacked flavour. Don t really mind the premium pricing, but the food just did not hit the spot like Mexican/ Tacos should. Not the place for me unfortunately. Kid-friendliness: Not the set up for toddlers or younger kids.
UNBELIEVABLE tacos one of the best spots in the GTA no doubt.
Worth the trip. A little pricey
Great little restaurant with a good menu selection. As a side note: the serving sizes are very small. Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian and vegan options!
Staff is friendly...First time coming here and the food was so yummy
food and service is amazing
Nice taco spot! The vibes were solid and it looks like a popular place for the locals. Food was good too - tried the fish taco, achiote chicken, and brisket. All were good but definitely recommend the OG fish taco the most!
Update ! Nothing is better on Valentines Day than dinner at the Burro. I don t know how they do it but with every meal and visit they get better and better. The food is skillfully prepared with the most incredible ingredients and flavours. From Margaritas to Flatbreads to Tacos and Unique Desserts you will experience the most incredible meal. The Burro is my wife s and my favourite place! Let s not forget the most incredible servers who make the meals so very special. If you are looking for a great night out look no further than the Burro, you will not be disappointed! What an incredible meal. Everything is prepared with such care and the freshest ingredients . So many choices and all of them are excellent from the drink menu to the desserts and everything in between . My wife and I loved our meal. The service was exceptional too. I can t remember when I ve enjoyed a meal more. We will be customers for life.
We went there because they have a gluten free kitchen. We returned on the same day for another round of delicious churros! The place and the staff are lovely. Definitely coming here again the next time were in town. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free
Great date spot with lots of tacos to try and my favourite drink jarritos!
The taco and drinks were good. We felt the waitress was rushing us, that we dont like. Food
Many different tacos to choose and appraisers are also great. Service is quick and friendly. Vegetarian options: Vegan tacos
Were at Burro last night before a live music show which was nice as it was so close nearby. Very good food!! Fresh, flavourful and interesting and extensive drinks menu to try. Love the flights option. Personally as we were there very early (5:30/6), I just went with the WAP ~ Watermelon and Peach) Margarita which was a little too good, lol ~ had to order a second versus trying another flavour, which was also tempting. We tried the chorizo pork belly nachos to start, followed by brisket and fish tacos, achiote chicken and ground pork/beef tacos too (two tacos each) and all were delicious as well as generously portioned. Think tapas you can mix and match and try as you go which is fun. We had time before our show so liked the aspect that there was so much on the menu that appealed to us to potentially choose from. Couldn t pass up dessert, two great choices but as we were pretty full we opted on splitting the waffle churro which was amazing. There was a unique sugar cookie dessert with key lime mascarpone on the menu that sounded amazing too. Liked seeing an alternative second option alongside a churro option. Nice relaxed vibe and intimate atmosphere and attentive and friendly service, (Emma served our table). Will definitely be back to try the patio in summer! (The nachos were probably best ever sampled so hopefully they ll still be a menu offering then ) Last thing I ll say is the choice to eat out comes at a premium these days with everything being so expensive but we found the value and food was very reasonably priced. Recommend big time!
Like the mule but smaller quieter and with the same food. Maybe better food with some more vegetarian options. Vibe is certainly less lively, but I think it certainly works with the location.
Good place for Mexican food. I will try it again.
Inattentive staff
Recently been and cannot wait to go back!
Excellent food, 100% gluten-free but you d never know if I didn t tell you. Dietary restrictions: 100% gluten free Food : 5/5 |
Good taco place in Burlington s Brant St. I got the Chorizo & pork belly nachos, Habanero brisket tacos & a special lime pork ribs ( forgot the name ). It was refreshing & mildly spicy food mostly. Definitely try their in-house sauce made with mango, pineapple, coriander. It was just amazing & maybe I will buy it next time. Friendly staff, good ambience. Seating is limited, so definitely get a reservation. Waiting for the summer to try their patio & some more specials.
I got their tacos. The fillings were delicious. However, the tortillas could have been toasted a little more. Not too expensive either. Restaurant has a nice cozy feel to it
Outstanding food and service . The sea bass ceviche was so tasty. As always the tacos were yummy and don t get me started on the cinnamon churro we had for dessert! All in all a fantastic night celebrating our anniversary. We were surprised when our server told us our drinks were on them! Thank you! Dietary restrictions: Accommodated my food allergies!
Food was good. Gets busy on the weekends so book a table.
I was looking for somewhere to eat, and I came across this place, I bought the Nachoes which was atrocious for its whopping price of 18 dollars. I also bought a taco which was 6.25 also the smallest thing ever. This place is shifty, if your having a bad day eat here to feel others pain
Tacos were great, unique flavor combinations and great selection. Service and ambiance was wonderful. Liv really made our night, she walked us through everything including spice levels and allergies with some charm, it was refreshing to have such great service as a visitor to Canada. She was awesome! Will definitely be back on our next visit.
Great service staff, but food is pricey, especially apps/shareables for what they are. Recommend the fish tacos.
Horrible service. Horrible staff
Good food, service and prices.
I only know one Mexican restaurant around the Oakville/burlington area so as a Mexican when I found out about Burro I was very excited. The food is very Americanized but I Iike how they put their own twist to it. The reason for 4 stars is due to how expensive it is. I was not expecting one taco to be 6$ and they are quite small same with the cocktails being 14$ and being way too small as well. Overall great atmosphere plus the waitresses were very kind. Just not a fan of the prices.
$6 bucks for a two bite taco and the taste wasnt mind blowing. It took them 45 minutes to dish out 6 tacos and 10 minutes to prepare the churro. We are not going back.
A friend and I met up at Burro for a light meal to catch up. We were that table that took a while to order and eat as we hadn t seen each other in over a year. The server didn t rush us at all. The food came fast and tasted great. It s perfect for any type of appetite as you order per taco. It was refreshing to see the general manager out serving and cleaning tables along with our server, and took the time to chat with us.
Everything was delicious, and our waitress Abby took great care of us! :)
The food is consistently great. I like that tacos are ordered individually so you can try numerous types. $6-6.50 per taco is reasonable based on quality of ingredients and how much protein and toppings are included. They load the tacos up! If you do not do well with any spice ensure to let your server know as many items have spicy sauces and ingredients on them. You can spend less than $20 and be full.
Very chill environment,good tunes, super friendly staff. The food was so fresh and delicious. Cant wait for my next visit
Food tastes great! Service was a little slow, but always with a good smile
Good was great and came out quick! Servers were also very lovely. Would definitely recommend
Never disappoints.... Delicious
The food was okay, but we were definitely rushed by the staff. I was there with a friend on a weekday. Our food came out right away but our drinks took an extra 15 minutes. Our server gave us our bill before we finished our drinks, and never asked if we wanted another round or dessert. We were there for under 30 minutes, and left hungry. Not a great experience, wont be returning.
It was our first time here. But, I don t think we would be back. OG fish 3/5- the fish batter was under seasoned. The Cease and Desist 2/5 - the ground meat reminded me of taco bell and even my partner said so without me mentioning anything. The chorizo 0/5- reason being was my chorizo sausage was so thin, dry, hard and burnt. I don t know if it was supposed to be like that but it ruined the taste for me. Wish i had taken a photo. The Mole Chicken 2/5 Chips and guacamole 3/5 - overpriced, small portion but the guacamole was alright. Pickled onion 5/5. Staff were friendly.
The best tacos ever. 100% celiac-safe too! Vegetarian options: Some pptions with no meat. Dietary restrictions: Celiac safe. Vegetarian/vegan safe options too.
Burro Tacos @Burlington, ON (quality) (environment): (service): Are you ready for Taco Tuesday? I am always ready for some tacos and guacamole & chips! This place is a gem! It is located in Burlington and they serve tacos, cocktails and different appetizers! Their menu is 100% gluten free and they have some vegan and vegetarian options on their menu too! Honestly, all their tacos are calling for me, they are flavours that you would not be able to find elsewhere. This time, I ordered Guacamole & Chips ($11) This is honestly the best guacamole and chips I have tried! The guac was so refreshing and yummy! The guac was topped with green onions, pumpkin seed and picked jalapeño! Totally in love! Their chips were perfectly seasoned, it wasn t very savoury and it was super crispy! It is a really good appetizer to share between two people before the main course! The Achiote Chicken ($6) This taco has crispy chicken skin, cabbage, red onions, radish and topped with chipotle mayo sauce! It was very refreshing and crispy! The server also gave me some hot sauce to add onto the tacos! What sparked me the most was their housemade hot sauce, it had a hint of pineapple and mango, making it more refreshing than it is. It is definitely worth a try! The Spicy Cauliflower ($6) I absolutely love the cauliflower here, it s so crispy and yummy with the smokey ancho mayo sauce! There is also cabbage, sweet onion salsa, pickled jalapeño radish to make the taco more refreshing! They also have an outside patio, perfect for summer to enjoy some sunshine and tacos! Their service was also very efficient, thank you for the great hospitality and yummy food!
The only thing better than the food is the service! Blue is friendly, funny and informative and we always have a great time there!
The manager here is so sweet. I frequently get take out here because Im gluten free and love tacos :) Last time I was in the manager remembered me and gave me a drink and nachos on her! It was such a sweet gesture and really made my Saturday. Hands down best tacos & service!!
BEST fish tacos in town. Amazing service, the staff is welcoming, social, and knowledgeable.
It s the only place I ve eaten out in the last couple years that was worth it. The spicy cauliflower taco was insanely good and the spicy Margherita was amazing.
Great experience overall! Tacos are tasty and quite filling. I particularly enjoyed the several creative vegetarien options. The service is very friendly and I found the place cute. There could be more options of alcohol-free drinks, like fresh juices etc.
My friend and I visited at 1:30 pm on a Tuesday afternoon. There were two tables seated when the host asked if we had a reservation. I jokingly said doesn t look like we need one We proceeded to be sat outside. We moved to a four person table (two singles pushed together) where our server then explained she ll need the table if they get a 4 person group in. We just laughed it off because of the fact that you can push any other tables outside together to accomplish what was does for where we were sitting alongside the fact it was a Tuesday afternoon and it was a ghost town. The two woman working just had a bad attitude and weren t very thrilled to be there. It was distasteful from a servers perspective and from the perspective of someone who s longed wanted to try this establishment. Needless to say we didn t burden them with food orders, nor a tip. We had our drinks and ran for the hills! We won t be back.
Probably the best tacos I ve ever had
This place is a super cozy mexican inpired restaurant and really enjoyed eating there. The tacos were really unique but very good. I didnt know what to think at first about ordering one taco at a time, but it was well worth it. I would definitely go back the next time I am in burlington!.
Amazing!! The Brussel sprout tacos are my favourite!!
Wish I could give more than 5 stars! Reminded me of those great little off the beaten track places you find in Europe that only the locals know about. Treat yourself to some amazing flavor combinations in both cocktails and tacos. Dont know what to order? Our server was excellent and gave us a great run down on the menu and she was not wrong! I enjoyed every bite. A must try that should be on anyones list
Best Taco s this place never disappoints!
Food was good. Although I wish they offered a combo platter of tacos.
Great food, 100% gluten free! The cocktails were also tasty.
The food was delicious and fresh! We had the burro bravas and guac & chips for apps, and then the OG Fish and the Habanero Brisket tacos for the main. We were there for lunch during the lunch rush, so it was busy. Will be back!
Super friendly service and delicious food. Nice patio too!
The first time and the introduction to the food was very helpful by the lovely owner. She explained the menu, so it made ordering easy, and her recommendations were spot on. The food is excellent and it tastes good. Presentation and ease of eating are great for finger food. The dessert, chocolate with a twist. The waffle churros, you gotta try it to believe it. So now I have two favorites to visit and they are beside each other. Its gonna make choosing difficult, oh the decisions, decisions, lol. Maybe we will see you there! Happy eating
Always love coming here, great tacos, fun atmosphere and great servers!
the best service ever. soara was so kind and the best server i ve had in a long time. would go back for the food of course, but also just to get served by her again.
We were served by Saura. Absolutely amazing food and wonderful service. The cocktails were delicious and the churro waffle was a perfect dessert. Cheers Food : 5/5
Great food, great service. We tried patata bravas, fondudo, brussel sprout tacos( the best) and falafel tacos Food : 4/5
Loved our experience. Katie was our server and she was one of the best we ve ever had!!! Wil go back.
The food was okay... portion seemed very small for the price...including a $14 cocktail that was very small...also the waitress asked if we wanted welcome chips which turned out to just be an app we had to pay for so that was very confusing. Was not bad but wouldnt go a second time
Called 4 times and got hung up on, then we went to place an order in person and they ignored us for 15 minutes and let others pass us.
Was with a world-travelling friend who had lived in Mexico -- and had previously owned a Mexican restaurant -- when we decided to check the place out. He was amazed (not making that up!) at how good the tacos were despite really wanting the ceviche (it was unavailable because their stock was down for pandemic-related reasons). Guacamole was great. Service very friendly, cordial, helpful (though servers tended to disappear for varying periods of time -- likely due to the sheer size of the restaurant and the distance to the Brant St patio). Went back the next day and my friend was even more impressed. Hes a lover of Mexican fish dishes and swears by the fish tacos. Looking forward to the caviche ... :)
My wife and I had the fish tacos, pulled pork and the cease and desist tacos. All very fresh and tasty. Guacamole and chips were also very good. And all gluten free! Highly recommended! Dietary restrictions: All menu items are gluten free, except the beer of course.
Pros: The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The tacos were pretty good, and they had a good variety that made use of fresh ingredients. The cocktails were really well done too. Cons: The prices are too high in my opinion. The tacos are good, but they dont have the authenticity that mexican food elsewhere does. The flavours were just a little lacking. Edit: July 2023 I stand by my original review. Their tacos arent bad, but theyre not authentic and they just dont reach that next level. And for $6 per taco, they need to bring their A-game. Also, chips and salsa are not free. EVERY mexican restaurant gives free chips and salsa when you first sit down. To charge for them, let alone what Burro prices them at, is kind of stupid.
The tacos are to die for!
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and very good food! Perfect combination for our family to enjoy lunch. Normally not a take out location but they took care of us. Food
My wife and I went to the mule in Hamilton and I recently went with my mom and my two brothers to the Burlington location. We loved it and the prices are affordable. Service was great and we even got a discount for being first timers
Went in at 9:59 PM on a Saturday night and they told me they couldn t serve me because they re closing in 15 minutes the sign on the door and Google says they close at 11 PM. First time I m walking in there last time I m ever walking in there lol they don t seem to care though they must have lots of customers
We used to get their tacos regularly but something changed because their fish tacos were good one day and bad the next. They said they changed vendors but clearly cheaped out to save money at the cost of taste.
Great food and experience. Really impressed by the service from our server Emma. Will be back soon!
Delicious! Loved that it s all gluten free as well. Really lovely staff and atmosphere
We had an excellent meal at Burro while I was visiting from Vancouver. I am vegan and gluten free and it is fantastic to have a place to go to that is safe and delicious! Highly reccomend it! Vegetarian options: Vegan oprions were delicious!
We have been coming to Burro for over 4 years with consistent quality and service every time. Not only do I appreciate their dedicated gluten free environment, as I am Celiac, but we continue to come back for the great tasting food, cocktails and friendly environment. The menu stays true to its fan favourites such as the Brussel sprout taco (try it you will not be disappointed!), but also has specials and seasonal updates so there is always something new to try. The manager, Danielle, is wonderful and has made our visits extra special on more than one occasion. She is a gem! Dietary restrictions: Dedicated gluten free / celiac friendly
Every single time I come here as an Uber drive the orders are never ready. The serves hardly even acknowledge the drivers sitting in the front with a bag. I am just tired of them telling me Uber told them to have it ready for a certain time. That time they said to have it ready for is the time the customer is EXPECTING the order not when to have it ready for the driver. Get it together
Had a Wonderful experience at Burro on the August Long Weekend! Katie and the Manager were exceptional hosts and gave us the best first time experience! We will be back and we will be recommending to everyone we know !
Katie was awesome and the manager is super proud of the restaurant and it show. Absolutely recommend this place. Service was great and the food was amazing. So many flavors.
It s just okay nothing special
How disappointing. My boyfriend and I decided to try Burro for a date night and booked a reservation for Friday night at 7:30. Unfortunately we weren t seated until 8:15, it was a Friday night so I understood, but there were multiple tables just waiting to be bussed that they could have seated us at and they seated 2 couples with reservations after us (at 7:45) before we even sat down. I told the waitress that we could sit anywhere, I didn t care at that point if it was inside or outside. When she asked the server of the table we were supposed to be seated at what the eta was on the table the response was there just in the bathroom. It ll be 5 minutes. Well, it was more like 20 minutes after that and we weren t even seated at that table. However, when we sat down, we didn t see a waitress for another 30 minutes to order even though there were people who got there later with drinks already on the table. The appetizer of chips and gauc was good, but we weren t able to enjoy it with our drinks because they didn t show up til we were almost done it. Next we were looking forward to the tacos. Now I had been before and they had been great. We tried the brisket, pulled pork, Cease & Desist, and the chicken. The chicken was great, but the others were cold and very underwhelming in terms of flavour and appearance. The brisket did not taste like brisket and the pulled pork had no taste. For what had high hopes to be our new go to Mexican place this was very disappointing. We won t be back.
Awesome spot for lunch and a quick Mexican fix!
Great tacos with a very Hamilton vibe, which is why we love it.
Really cool little place downtown, the tacos and drinks are amazing. They have vegetarian and vegan options too. The brussel sprout taco was actually REALLY good! Our server was Ella and was super awesome! Vegetarian options: Vegan options available too
first time here super fresh homemade top to bottom. It was so delicious. Our server Dee was so kind and attentive. I would definitely recommend this place.
Nice little patio, good tacos- never would have thought I d use the word delicious to describe Brussels sprouts!
Love the mule but distance made it difficult, found burro and was a game changer for when I am craving tacos (which is always). LOVE the brussel sprout tacos highly highly recommend!! Staff is always super friendly, service is so fast and price is more than reasonable for the amazing tacos!!! I probably come here at least 2-3x a month ;p MY GO TO ORDER: WAP marg pitcher 2 Brussels 1 Achiote Chicken 1 Whatever else I feel like My bfs: 2 Cease and Desist 2 Achiote Chicken
Burro is our go-to for a Celiac-friendly meal in Burlington. We get take out from here 2-3x per month (for the last 5+ years :) and it never disappoints. The tacos are amazing, and we usually get the nachos (veggie). There are so few restaurants that are 100% safe for people with Celiac, so having somewhere that you can have a worry-free meal always makes for a relaxed experience.
Food was very good and flavorful. Margaritas were also very good!
Tacos and drinks are amazing! Great staff too.
Not a good service, excessive wait of time for a take out that supposed to be ready
This place was really good. Taco were perfect, loved the OG fish. Guac and chips were excellent, and the ceviche was flavorful.
We came here because I m currently dallying with a gluten free diet and this restaurant is 100% gluten free so that made ordering a real pleasure! We tried 3 kinds of taco: Brussels sprouts (my partners fave), fish and chicken achiote (my fave) as well as the guacamole and the nachos. Everything was delicious, nicely presented and if you ask for modifications they are happy to accommodate you! I could not detect that I was missing out on gluten. Even one of the beers is gluten free and it was amazingly just like any other craft beer I ve ever tried. After all that food, we tried one of each dessert and oh my! Both were our favourite dishes of the night! It was clever to cook the churros in a waffle iron and they were every bit as good as the real deal from Mexico! The banana cheesecake was less cheesecake and more banana pie in my opinion but was the perfect antidote to the spice of earlier! Our servers were attentive and fun and we never felt unwelcome! We will return here next time in Burlington! Thank you! Dietary restrictions: Gluten free
Love this place!
Great ambiance, good food and friendly service! Cant go wrong with this Mexican joint in downtown Burlington.
They need to bring back the chorizo 25june2023 ordered ubereats and had to throw away two (chips and guac, chorizo nachos) out of three orders. The chips were burnt and inedible. Ubereats does not refund or replace for these types of issues 30sept2023 restaurant changed my order without notifying me and I prepaid through delivery service. They ran out of chorizo and decided on their own to send me chicken instead.
Top notch place for tacos and other Mexican foods. Good prices and excellent food!
The chip and guac stuff is incredible, the tacos, excellent, didnt venture too much into the tequila but im sure thats good too..excellent service, in the words of arnold Ill be back
Falafel taco was a must try
The everything at Burro is perfect if you are gluten sensitive or Celiac you dont need to worry at at all. Everything is delicious and priced right! Vegetarian options: Delicious! Dietary restrictions: Completely gluten free Kid-friendliness: Who doesnt enjoy a good taco?
I was excited to try Burro when I was in Burlington for work. Even more excited when I found out it was owned by the Mule (Hamilton). The vibe of the restaurant is nice. I ordered Burro bravas as an appetizer to share which was delicious. They accommodated my friends allergies and provided alternatives which was appreciated! I ordered brussel sprouts and fish tacos. I was left a little disappointed at how crunchy and dry the brussel sprouts were and the fish tacos had barely any fish in them. After pointing out the lack of fish, I was given a replacement and was also compd for one fish taco.
Excellent food and service. Our group of seven had a great time!
Went here with my celiac partner and another friend. The place is quaint, small, but good quality fresh food. The main draw here is a dedicated gluten free kitchen. However, they do serve beer which is not celiac friendly (eg corona, XX, etc). I had the nachos which were a small to medium Portion good for one person as a meal, but good quality ingredients and very fresh. Others had fish tacos (good), halloumi tacos (great), and the cease and desist taco (average). You pay per taco, about $6, nachos were around $18, cocktails around 12-16 bucks. I had a winter bourbon cocktail that was pretty good. Dessert was churros and ice cream - more like a waffle really, but not bad. Our celiac person didn t get sick, so that s always a win. One negative is the limited seating when the patio is closed. The place can maybe hold 20 people at best, so you re best to book ahead. The waitress was kind enough to sit us at the bar, which was reasonable and not too crowded. Will return. Dietary restrictions: Dedicated gluten free kitchen (bar has beer though) Parking: Free street parking evenings and weekends.
First time here, came all the way from Toronto and was treat extremely well, so well that the owner paid for my meal. Only in the area for a business meeting but will definitely come back with some freinds, to share the wonderful experience and food.
Amazing food and service, authentic
Authentic food. Great service. Fair prices. Consistent year-after-year. Will be back soon!
Great food and drinks. Ask about the weekly specials. The halloumi tacos and the pork belly and chorizo nachos were amazing.
Great little stop by to quench hunger for delicious taco and nachos!
Yeah just don t bother we had a kid 9 years who wanted to eat a sandwich it from the restaurant and they did not let us, we ended up having our party split between the kid and the mother eating at the restaurant door and the rest of the party eating inside.. what the hell
Food was fine. Standard Mexican food. Service was abysmal. Its one thing to wait to be serviced, fine, I get it, youre busy, do your thing. Its another to stand there for 10mins and not be acknowledged. Once I was finally seated after having to stand in the literal way of traffic to get noticed, I had to hail down another server to be able to order. This was after another 10mins of no greeting, no water, no nothing. As a former server of 6 years, the service provided was and is pathetic. If it were not for the location and the sheer lack of places to eat in Burlington, there is no way this type of service would be able to keep a business afloat. Train your staff. Update(nov 8th): I emailed you on Oct 29th and haven t heard anything back. Why offer to remedy the situation and then proceed to not address it accordingly? So all of this was to save face?
Definitely recommend trying the Thai fried chicken taco!
Great spot for amazing Mexican food. Service is top notch and they make the best Margaritas in town. Also impressed with their allergy awareness and attention to detail.
I introduced 3 other people to Burro. We all have food sensitivities, and the results were unanimous! Everyone enjoyed their food, felt well after, and would return for another great meal. Vegetarian options: Our vegetarian was pleased to have some choices, and enjoyed her order. Dietary restrictions: Burro is very accommodating. The food is all gluten-free but many items are, or can be made, dairy free, low spice, etc and still taste great!
My husband and I came here yesterday to celebrate his birthday and we had such a great time! Our server Liv was wonderful and went above and beyond to make our experience a memorable one. Thank you Liv and the Burro team for our great birthday celebration! Dietary restrictions: Celiac safe because the restaurant is 100% gluten-free!
Excellent service all the staff had been out standing and the food was excellent. It was the first time we had dined there. The fish tacos and margaritas and chips and guacamole amazing!! We defiantly will be back. Thank you for a great experience!!
Just dropped by for a quick bite, got 3 tacos each. I had the brisket, pork, and fish. Brisket was great solid 7.4, same with the Pork, 7.3 for the fish. Service was also great, fast, attentive, no complaints. Will definitely come back, definitely worth checking out!
I loved this place The food, staff, drink and everything was amazing Food
Amazing tacos. Love their brussel sprout and sweet chicken tacos. So good!
