Went in with a friend tonight. There was a young girl in front of us with another young girl, the Indian girl working approached and told the one in the front to go behind and make what she wanted as they were quite busy. She refused and the older lady working said she canโt. Time passed and as time passed the girl in front of us asked a question and with a store full of people the Indian girl blantly told the girl in front โhow about you just donโt donโt talk that would be helpfulโ. Our mouths drop so we knew she worked there too but right now sheโs paying sheโs one of us. We will not be back. The poor young girl didnโt even wait for her food she left.
We have ordered Burrito Gringo for office catering many times now and it is a staff favourite! Food - always delicious, fresh & hot. When choosing the "make your own" taco station there is a wide variety of options to pick from to assure everyone at the office gets something they like. Our staff have every dietary restriction you can think of and Burrito Gringo can cater to them all! In addition, we never have to worry about running out of food, they provide large quantities and the team loves to grab leftovers. Service - Very quick at communicating when making the order. They drop off, set everything up, pick-up and clean-up. They also provide the heaters to assure beans, rice, meat etc stay hot! Tony is amazing! Overall every single experience we have had has been 10/10 and we will continue to order for future meals.
Update: I was contacted by the manager that guaranteed it was a miscommunication from his staff and the "ANY DRINK" promotions really means ANY drink, not only bottles. I will give them another try since those miscommunications can happen and will update my review accordingly. ---- False advertising! I went there on a monday, noticed the promotional ad and ordered two burritos and a medium coke, just to be charged the full amount. When I asked about the promotion the guy told me only "Jarritos" bottles are part of the promotion as drinks... I pointed to the "ANY DRINK" part of the ad and he said that there was nothing to do, that he "was told just Jarritos"..... -----
Office Catering. I highly recommend them. We have a large group (~225) and it's one of our favourite catered lunches. Food is fresh, plentiful and delicious. They accommodate allergies and food preferences. It is delivered, set up and kept in warmers and then picked up in a timely fashion at a great price!
โAs a frequent visitor to Gringo Burrito, I can confidently say their nachos are a must-try! The portion is enormousโdefinitely enough for two people to share. The flavors are always spot on, with generous toppings that make every bite delicious. Highly recommend giving them a try!โ
Bad service and the I had to put my burrito in a bowl cause all the food was gonna fall off regardless which was just annoying and the foods not fresh. place used to be good it fell off
Came all the way out to Ottawa from Vermont, USA. I had their amazing tacos and the best warm chocolate chip cookie. The people here give outstanding customer service WITH a smile. Come here and ask for Lovin to make your food. Heโs the best! I love coming out to Ottawa and seeing the diversity and how hard people work. The States could learn something from Ontario. Looking forward to coming here again
Three taco with one small quesadilla plus a drink cost $41 after tax. They either charged us for extra stuff or the coconut drink cost 10 dollar. Pricey, average taste.
Absolutely the best nachos we have ever ordered. We are nachos fanatics and weve been all over the city. Try them and enjoy! Kid-friendliness: yes Wheelchair accessibility: yes
Burrito Gringo does an incredible job of feeding the Ottawa Redblacks. Food is great, portions are generous and appreciated by the players. Service is great as well!
Great burrito restaurant.
Excellent service, quality of food and atmosphere is found in this burrito branch, the people are super friendly and attentive to customers.
Great customer service Good was great as well in taste but didn t seems to find it fresh Food
Best Mexican in town! Highly recommend Nachos and Quesadillas.
Great Tacos!
Absolutely delicious. The beef was amazing. All the ingredients were fresh. Food
Decent Mexican restaurant, staff has a good knowledge about the portioning and are very generous with the meat, we visited the restaurant for the first time and had wonderful experience, will definitely be back.
Food doesn t taste fresh
PLEASE GIVE ME MY SAUCE BRO
Never disappoints. Get the burrito with the whole wheat tortilla. Dont forget the guac.
Waited 20 minutes for my food. Unprofessional.
I ordered many times I love their food and service..yesterday I bought burrito bowl and quesadillas for my friend she loved it special thanks to ..p.k . ....for serving best food..
Contacted corporate hq and no one could bother responding to me. Lets try this way. I would appreciate it if someone would contact me.
The server is really good. The food is really amazing. You guys should go try it And I love Servers for
Damn slow and sub par
Food was banging
Yummy
This place serves real chicken breast which is hard to find these days. Burritos are good. They don t complain if you ask for more, like other stores. Theyre always there with their mediocre flavor but at least it s made in store. The warm meat, with the half melted cheese because the machine sucks and the barely spicy hot sauce. But they are always there and they pack it on, plus the service is good. They close early but whatever. 5 stars for the chicken
One of the favourite Mexican food restaurants. Vegetarian options: Bowl, wrap, quesadillas, nachos, tacos. Parking: It is kind of commercial place so no issue for parking. Wheelchair accessibility: Enough parking space and facilities inside restaurant as well.
Best, place to have mexican food in whole Ottawa, we went at the time of closing and had a large steak burrito and believe me it was delicious I asked the white girl for extra corn and pico and she did, we loved the food and service, gringo people will see the more of me.
I catered from Burrito Gringo this past weekend and had the most amazing experience with them, thank you so much for all the delicious food, good communication, and being flexible with the location.
Horrible place abd food dont know how this place gets any high reviews. I also found that they interview people by asking them to come and work for one hour unpaid and then telling them it didnt workout just to get free labor. No wonder tge food is horrible because you are using newbies who just want a chance to run your place
Ive been going here for the last few years, and every burrito Ive had has been delicious. There is good variety in the ingredients, and they are always fresh too. The staff is always friendly as well. Definitely recommend!
Beautiful people. Master rollers! Lord of the tortillas.
Always friendly service, they really seem to care about their customers. Huge portions and fresh ingredients that always hit the spot. Not only are they my go to Mexican restaurant, they are pretty much my go to take out place overall. I have never had a bad experience.
Really delicious and a lot put in my bowl - nice to feel you are getting a good quantity! Lovin made our dinner an absolute pleasure. Really enjoyed the food, great choices, and everything fresh and yummy!
The salad and the burrito is very nice. Delicious and the portion size is huge. One small can fill up to 2 light eaters easily. I visit here every Saturday for their salad bowl. Food : 5/5
Good location.
I love Mexican food and up until this evening. I have not found one that is so delightful. They charge you honestly and food is absolutely wonderful. I recommend it over every other Mexican restaurant on this Uber site because I ve tried them all this is wonderful food the presentation is awesome the flavour everything is absolutely by far the best that I ve had for this type of food on Uber. Vegetarian options: I unfortunately have a very severe form of Crohn s and I m very limited in my diet and I just thought I would try and see if I could tolerate it because I love Mexican food but at times it s made me ill not due to the food mind you it s just due to my disease but this meal was absolutely gorgeous and tasty and I recommend it to anybody
Great portion size. I ordered a small, and couldnt even finish it. The staff stuffed the burrito full. The manager was amazing as well. Super friendly and helpful. 100% worth it.
I ve been to all the Burito Gringo locations in Ottawa. Merivale is the best one yet :)!!!!
Burritos was well worth money. Smelled nice in there. Girl behind the counter took my order was cute. 10/10 overall. Will be back.
Friend asked for some more cheese and he recieved - more cheese.
The food was fresh. Girl at counter is extremely polite and was not greedy with the food. She deserves a lot of credit for her service and kindness.
Generous portions and very tasty! The chicken was cooked and seasoned well and the burrito sauce is great. We received great service from Lovin and Veerpal! Would eat here again!
I ordered from skip and had a bad experience with missing and wrong items. So I drove to the store and the employee redid my order with no fuss. This place is definitely one of my favorites.
Strange being in a Mexican cuisine restaurant and Bollywood music was blaring. The menu board was broken and the staff wasnt very good at explaining what they had to offer. Not very tasty
Terrible place now, this place used to be awesome but the past few years they ve cheapened out and started hiring terrible staff, save your money and shop somewhere else. Came back a few months later, as a Mexican this a disgrace for a Mexican style restaurant might as well call it Bollywood burrito owner is cheap as hell and only hired international students from India
We tried Burrito gringo, overall it was decent. It s a bit pricier than the other local burrito places.
Vegetarian options: Veggie friendly Food
Worst burrito Ive ever had. Looks like they fired all their staff to hire cheap Indians who cant make food if their life depended on it. Wont be going back, terrible business. Not fit for Canadian standards
It s okay.
Best portions out of any of the Burrito chains! Dont know if its just the location, or the whole chain, but great find.
I ordered through Uber Eats and the food reached super cold and the cheese wasn t even melted. The place isn t that far from my house. The food didn t taste fresh. I wouldn t order again from this place. Had better Mexican food.
Not good service.
Friendly staff, great portions. Best tofu burrito period!
Great food, FRESH and the staff is efficient. For a quick healthy meal its awesome
One of the best burritos Ive ever had. Keep it up guys !!
First time visitor to this location. The food did not look the most fresh as they had thin crust forming over the mashed beans and avocado. In addition they had a subways approach to making a taco. Final product lacked flavour and I discarded after fist bite.
I visited the Nepean location and asked for Nachos thinking they had gluten-free options. They have sign s in the place letting customers know that have different dietary restrictions options. I asked if their chicken or pulled pork was GF. Having Coeliac, I can t take chances. The staff told me it wasn t GF because the manager they where trying to reach didn t answer. Very unprofessional to give an answer without being certain. The lady was able to get an answer and all meats are GF. I ended up buying the nachos, but will not come back again.
Amazing, lea is the best employee. Best costumer service. So polite and friendly. The food there is so delicious and they re so clean. Great staff, lea is the best one!
Worst consumer service
This place serves average burritos, with gas station ambiance, and an overly aggressive tip prompt. The staff is routinely different, meaning they don t pay or their employees properly. Not the worst burrito place, but is certainly on pace to get there.
Tasty tasty food and good portion size.
Good amount of everything! The taste is beyond okay
Worst Mexican place of my life; they don t know how to present the food. I don t recommend this place at all.
Always ask for Lovin to prepare your food he is really good at what he does extremely hardworking, and got a nice attitude!
Perfect service and hospitality from Lovin!! Amazing at what he does.
We visit this place regularly. It one of the best burrito place in ottawa. There is cute guy named Lovin who prepare very good nachos, quasidilla for me and serves me and my friends well with a smile. He is very polite and gives excellent customer service
We almost came to this place every 15 days.Staff is so polite and helpful.Guy named Lovin always serve me with a big smile on his face.Really appreciate his efforts to make my burrito so delicious. Thanku lovin for giving me best customer service.
amazing customer service by lovein , must visit place
Terribly cheap with quantities and they expect a tip? Food is mediocre at bestz Don t recommend, go somewhere else
Order through uber eats, quasadilla and burrito bowl. Both came cold, quasadilla was soggy. I requested extra pitas, instead received 0 with my order, shorted me 3 sauces as well. Will NOT be ordering there again. $60 down the crapper. No pun intended.
A year ago I had given this place a 5 start review, but unfortunately, outside of the friendly service I received here, I had to adjust my review completely. Serving sizes were fine, but the once sauteed onions & peppers were cold and uncooked completely and my partner ended up feeling ill and throwing up after eating his chicken burrito. The burrito was cold and not crispy on the outside at all so I dont think it was put in the press for long at all. This used to be a go-to spot but unfortunately well be finding a new burrito spot after this experience.
Definitely terrible place. The veggies were not fresh and tasted terrible in my Quesadilla. The employees and the manager were careless and rude too. Never coming to this place again. Never. I wish I could give zero star here. Very bad.
Yummy huge portions and hot.
Fantastic service and high quality ingredients at a very reasonable price. My server, Rajwant was fantastic, food was made quickly, competently and the few questions I had were answered instantly. 10/10 definitely recommend.
I ve been eating to this place for multiple years now Amazing food amazing service Thanks to Levin and all the staff !! Let s go Gringo Let s go !! Food : 5/5 |
The best of all the Burrito bars. Food is always fresh & portions are quite generous. Place is very clean. Owner is super friendly. Vegetarian options: Decided to try the Tofu Burrito bowl this time, and it was amazing. Perfect cook and seasoning on the Tofu. 10/10 recommend
Used to be a nice place, now terrible service, either the staff lacks training in public relations, or they are simply not friendly at all towards customers. Burrito was ok, price is fair.
I had a great service from Louin and Mankirat keep up with the good work!
Awful. Ordered through Uber eats so probably half their fault, but what I got was an undercooked, mushy, greasy, leaking pile of mess. Nasty, won t be ordering here again.
We visit there last night near about closing time but Lovin and veerpal provided us very good service. We live the way they treated us. Thank you so much for great service.
Really great place , awesome staff and specially the guy named Lovin i am coming here from one year and he is the best guy always deals me best , and makes the best burrito:) Really appreciate your efforts
This is the best branch of burrito gringo. Amazing taste and even more amazing service. I ve been served multiple times by Lovin and Mankirat and have always received great service. Great portions and they always help with any questions/requests. Vegetarian options: Their tofu tastes really good
Most of the positive comments are fake, misleading comments, kind fraud to do that
Food portion was huge...service was amazing. Food is delicious.
Ive ordered food from here many times and was always pleased. December 22nd was not one of them. We ordered a large order of beef nachos which looked liked it was literally warmed up for 30 seconds. The cheese looked like it was just grated, thrown on top but wasnt melted. The nachos were cold and had to be warmed in the oven to warm them up and melt the cheese. I also ordered 3 burritos which were all cold, and the orders were messed up. No avocado was added though it was requested. Tomatoes were added to one though not requested. Jalapeรฑos added though not requested, cheese not added to one though requested and they too needed to be warmed up in the oven as they were cold. Not sure if this was a one off night but I was definitely disappointed.
Im not an expert in Mexican food but I like tasty fresh food and this restaurant is my go to since I first came to ottawa. The portions are crazy big and everything is made from scratch. Deserve to be supported.
Ordered and payed for a large, came home and found out I was given a medium after looking forward to it all day :(
Excellent service, Amazing food and very tasty. Its 1st time I try Mexican foods but for sure will do it more and more. Keep going all way
Ive ordered burrito bowl from here many times and was always pleased. But last couple of times burrito bowl was not good at all it felt like its stale and was very dry both times Definitely disappointed.
(update) I used to come here every week, because it was really good and that I enjoyed also the good service! Maybe this time it was a bad day, but hey 50 dollars for some burritos I guess I can expect some Normal treatment but during my last visit I was badly treated because I asked the guy to wear a mask while making the burrito! he refused and yelled at me that he doesnt have a mask and I was like, ok, can your friend who started my burrito wearing a sandwich take over again?(covid times! really?) also I noticed bad hygiene gloves handling one hand with a glove, the other without, then switching, then touching things around...., you are not supposed to put the gloves with your hands (unclean) because you already contaminated them, or after putting them on a contaminated surface, and after throwing things into the garbage... The guy yelled at me and yelled at his coworker, I wasnt welcomed at all, the girl was nice and took over but I wasnt able to know what is my order from someones else! I just decided to never go there anymore. I came here twice because it s very good
Amazing mexican takeout with big portions at a reasonable price. Food is fresh and tasty
Their portion at this franchise is small and unprofessional staff
Good food. Good portions.
Went in today and ordered a large burrito, but it seems I got a small instead. Also seems that the ingredients were not hot as it took them over 5 minutes to warm the burrito on the hot press, in the process they burn the tortilla and made the burritos taste smoked. Defenitly no going back ever again.
Nothing wrong with it just kind of expensive for what you get
Its more about filling, then tasting great. You wont leave hungry, but you will not leave with a strong impression. I updated my review after coming back, the increased variety in meat offerings was appreciate, and a sign the owners are trying to improve. I dig it, 4/5 instead of 3/5.
The nachos are delicious!! Great quick option and so tasty. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful as well :-)
Terrible service by very unprofessional staff.
Always had a great experience before. But very disappointed with the latest visit. Buttiro was not wrapped properly and everything was coming out and falling apart. Nachos were burnt dark, very less nachos and so many toppings. Not satisfied with the visit!!
Staff had no idea how to assemble an order. Super unorganized. Cold products were warm and meats were room temperature at best. Watched one staff member basically wrist deep in someone else s burrito, no gloves, before giving up and just tossing it on the grill. Regret tipping anything at all. Will not go again.
I just picked up my Burrito bowl at this location and was served with great customer service from a gentleman named Lovin. Very helpful and extremely courteous..great location and great staff
I am a regular at this restaurant, still the staff was extremely rude and the service sucked
My friends kept talking about this place so I gave it a try and it s definitely worth the try and it s Halal. Very friendly staff, I will definitely come back
Shanu been very polite and excellent customer service. Great staff overall.
Shanu made us quesedia, very hygiene and excellent presentation. Overall great service by her.
Got excellent serving service by shanu she served tasty burrito bowl.
Amazing Food!!! As a Foodie Myself, I come here almost everyday and enjoy every single bite. Along with that they Offer great Customer service, Order on time, et cetera. There s a guy in the front Named Lovin everytime I come He makes my order and he makes it upto perfection. Great place, Come visit for sure.
I m Mexican and I love come here because the service is very pleasant, especially Miss Shanu.
Very good food and wonderful staff, Lovin is so respectful every time I come in. Thank you guys!!
Amazing experience like always. Friendly staff! Lovin was the man serving me. He is amazing providing world class service. Would recommend going to this place over any other burrito place
Very nice service and good food. Lovin and Shauna were very polite and helpful! Very clean place! Wish they had lactose free cheese, but staff was very informed about ingredients and helped me make my choice. Parking: It has a lot of parking in a strip mall.
Thanks Shanu for the service. Food was good, always good service.
Perfect service. An employee named Lovin was very nice and hardworking.
Manager over here is rude. Speaks Foreign languages infront of his employees thinking they either do not understand it, nor do not know the technology to find out what he is saying. Employees are teenagers learning what the working world is like. Instead of helping them succeed in his business, he would rather tell them everything is fine to their face all the while talking them down behind their bakes. Food itself is okay . It s like a subway but for burritos. It s okay ish .
I went to Ottawa few days ago after long time and I find a very good service with a beautiful smile of Shanu, she make me a tasty Burrito bowl in a great hygienic way really loved the food and staff. Thanks for a good meal.
We visited today and had best Nachos. Lovin was amicable and he helped us in our order. thank you
I had great experience at this place. Staff was very nice and polite. I ordered large nachos made by LOVIN- awesome man! Nicely made
Un attentive employees and nachos were burnt.
Im a regular here I come extremely often and the service is awful food quality is terrible and I over pay for an underwhelming burrtio do not recommend
Dont bother ordering online, they wont start making your meal until you arrive in person. Took them over an hour to make 2 burritos. Never will I come to this establishment again
Awesome stuff! First time here and thanks to Shanua and Angie for their help. Ask for them whenever you are there.
Very good service, Lovin is nice and gets the job done well and quick. I had questions and he answered them perfectly!
the employee shanu made a very good burrto wrap. recommend this place to everyone. loved it
Really,I love it, a guy named lovin is extremely good and polite, I like his service
Delicious burrito made by employee lovin!!!
Employee named lovin is very hardworking and he made a delicious quesdiaa for me. Best food ever
manager is not professional..
Really enjoyed the burrito bowls. Will need to try other plates.
Nice place for a takeaway.
Not good taste. Also Expensive
Mixecan food
Excellent burrito, typing selection not as diverse as Mucho but still a good choice.
GREAT FOOD, so glad I ran into this store, coming from Mississauga to do a delivery at Metro, figured I d stop by, LOVE IT!!!
Staff are always friendly and they make really big burritos
Had there nachos not very good. Large amount all the toppings were stuck to top layer and lid of packaging.
It was busy. Food was great as usual. Only problem they need to assign one person to do pick up orders. My order sat on counter without cover while the person serving me left it to put together an order for pick up. It was disorganized. 4 staff all doing various parts of those orders instead of one handling them while customers were waiting to be served.
Quick service and super delicious food!
Yummy
Perfect balance of fast and delicious. Pound for pound the best value burrito location in Ottawa.
Ordered a burrito bowl. Asked to have rice in a separate bowl but get rejected, asked to pay extra for more meat and get rejected again...not sure if I asked too much or their service just not flexible at all...Had good experience before but this time I just get turned down.
Delicious food, generous portions fast delivery.
Want a burrito? Please go to this place- gringos. I would like to thank Akshay, for the amazing burrito he made for me today. He is very friendly and professional. Highly recommend this place. Keep up the good work Akshay, you did a great job. :)
This restaurant always has fresh delicious food served by kind staff who tend to give generous portions of authentic style food.
Great taste and customer service, fair prices and best of all, fresh Guac! Our go to place.
This is the best burrito spot I ve tried in Ottawa. I work nearby and eat here about once or twice a month. I usually get a large tofu burrito bowl. The bowl is filled to the brim with toppings, they toss in free guac with the vegan option. Service is fast, staff is very friendly and the restaurant is clean. Overall, I m a huge fan.
food was tasty, cleanliness and girl make the wrap nicely. very polite and humble too. thanks
BEST TACO EVER !! Juicy and full of flavours
We were here few days back and it was out first time visiting here. It was one of the best burrito bowl I had had till date. The topping were generously added and it was really filling. Would definitely come here again.
I went to the store 30 minutes before closing. The staff already shut down most of the counters. Nachos were not available because they already started cleaning the nachos oven. They forgot to ask for cheese at the end. They were more eager to close rather than serve the customer. My suggestion dont go the store during closing time.
I would rather order uber eats than visit the store. Arrived 20 min before closing and the nachos were not available because they were closing. One server was cleaning the counter while other was preparing our order. It looked like they just wanted to get rid of us asap. My quesadilla was not grilled enough. It was soggy and not cut properly. I have ordered same before through uber eats and the quality was totally different or I just guess it was from a different location. Would not recommend visiting location 30 mins before closing hours if you want good service.
Its always a delight to go there. The staff is nice and they are open to suggest good things from the menu.
Very tasty and stomach filling burritos & bowls
Good portions and the salsa was delicious, will come back
Bland, soggy and overstuffed burrito but was really filling. The pork carnitas are to avoid, theyre also drenched with liquid.
Ive been coming here for a while now. Had to wait for a few minutes so the manager offered me a free drink and apologized for the delay. Professional and tasty. Will come again for sure!
Great food and excellent service
My favorite burrito place in Ottawa
the best place for burritos, the meat is real!!! not like other franchises.love it there!!
Great service good food
Its good
Excellent theyre doing a good job no they protect to every vary they follow the rules
Great staff, great food for the price. Will be my go to Mexican quick bite place. Would recommend over chipotle
Food was good they offered sit in eating but had no bathroom available which my wife needed to use so we took the food to go
Great service always
Ordered nachos and burrito bowl. The chicken was raw and the food was stale. They should make sure they make fresh food.
Super fresh! Its a solid spot.
Just writing because I continually recieve great service from this location, food quantity, quality and service are always top notch. I recently had the pleasure of ordering a taco bar from them and made a few changes, they were gracious enough to accomodate my needs to the best of their ability, pickup was a breeze even though there was a bunch of mishappenings on my part, service was still astounding. And. The. Bar. Was. Delicious. No skimping on quality and quantity. Thank you so much for making my nuggets party a breeze!
Ordered today with Door-dash - small issue with the order and it was promptly fixed - couldnt ask for better service and the food was awesome with large portions. Will order again and again. Thanks for the outstanding service, keep up the great work :)
Wasnt bad for the price
Burrito? Come on, last three times weve given them a new chance. Their food quality is bad, and the wraps dont even stay wrapped. A nice, soggy wet mess. Again. No wonder people say avoid this location Edit : if your restaurant is as clean, as others say it is. Its no surprise your food quality is bad. Come on, wake up.
Burritos at this location are always fresh. Staff is very friendly and always welcoming. Akshay,kyla are very nice. They know what they are doing and will make food the exact way you want. Awesome job as always.
Love the food, best Mexican food in town.
Great food and good service with reasonable prices my favorite in the area
The large burrito is huge!
