Taqueria Guanajuato

So I finally went! Taqueria Guanajuato is located by work and a few of my coworkers have raved about the food. So has the newspaper! Everyone talks about cheap burritos and huge portions. I went in there with about a 1/2 hour to spare before being back to work. While there was a decent amount of space in the restaurant I decided to sit at the 4 stool bar. I ordered my steak burrito with the cheese on top, which is an extra 50 cents compared to the $4.50 burrito. As I waited I was given a basket of chips and they have a fresh salsa bar with 8 different salsas. I tried about 4 and settled on the green stuff!When you eat at "real" mexican places you aren't really sure what you are going to get. What I did get was the biggest burrito I've ever been served. Yes, check out the picture, it might look small but only because the cheese was the thickest shredded cheese I've seen. That blue glass is a medium size pepsi glass (20oz) if that tells you anything. Huge!!! Hands down, the best value in the business.

But value alone does not define the burrito, quality is another word I would use. Ample perfectly prepared steak was only the starter. Tons of Chihuahua cheese on the inside too in a tortilla I loved. Also came with beans, white rice, lettuce and tomato. It was excellent. The flavors weren't bold (that's what the salsa bar is for) but were very tasty! I will be back, alot! It's as close as anywhere but KFC to work (5-10 minute walk) and at $5.00 for the burrito with chips and salsa you can't afford not to eat there. Yes they have more items other than burritos...but does it really matter?
