Avoiding the grocery store and a case of the hangries led me to choosing a place to eat out for a quick dinner. My boyfriend has been going on and on about the salsa at Blue Coast Burrito so I thought this would be a great opportunity to give the place a try. This Blue Coast is located in Lenox Village so it's pretty peaceful and kept clean. We arrived at Blue Coast at around 6:00 so of course we hit the dinner rush. The line was almost out the door but we didn't mind because it gave us time to look over the menu. The idea is pretty the same as Chipotle. Build your own meal. However, Blue Coast has a lot more options for you to choose from. You can choose from burritos, tacos, quesadillas, or nachos. What I really liked about here was you can choose the size of your burrito, small or regular. The small would be the perfect size for me but today I was sharing the burrito so went with the regular. You then get to choose your tortilla. Flour, chipotle, spinach, or wheat (only for the regular burrito-small only has flour). Then comes the meat. Grilled Chicken, LaTinga Chicken,
Grilled Steak, or Carnitas. We went for the steak which is chopped. After all of this comes the freebie extras. There are a lot of choices! Rice, beans, cheese, sour cream, cilantro, tomatoes, pico de gallo, onions, lettuce, black olives, jalapenos, cucumbers, and salsa. Everything is fresh and piled on. Then of course they have the paid extras like queso and guac. We got the combo which included a drink and chips with the salsa bar. A huge meal for a great price. We loaded up on the pineapple salsa and made our way outside to sit on their patio. The food: the salsa lived up to the hype. It was delicious and we devoured the chips in no time. If they were selling jars of salsa I would for sure buy a bunch. Spicy with a hint of sweet from the pineapple. Yum. The burrito was also great. I usually like my meat to be a little juicier but the steak was still good. The veggies were fresh. The size was perfect for sharing. Overall, a great meal that I would definitely eat again.
To comment more specifically on this location, the service was outstanding. With a line out the door, the workers kept their cool and had smiles on their faces. They joked around with the customers and made what could have been a chaotic situation light and fun. The restaurant itself has plenty of seating inside and out. Their is a patio in the front and in the back. The back offers more shade if it's really hot out. It's nothing fancy but is kept clean and organized. Convenient, fast, and yummy!
