Freebirds is a happy place. I always anticipate with great eagerness a visit or several to Freebirds anytime I'm in Dallas (or Houston), but this particular Dallas-area location not far from the airport is my favorite.
Obviously, if you're familiar with the Chipotle-style of burrito-dom, Freebirds is kind of the next level, in terms of choice and quality. It's a nice change from Chipotle, and the atmosphere is a lot of fun.
Choose from 4 different sizes of tortilla, from the Hybird to the Super Monster, and choose from at least 3 different flavors of tortilla. Or, you can just opt for your burrito filling in a bowl, and go tortilla-free.
Among the meats, there's both light meat AND dark meat chicken, pork, and beef. Great grilled veggies as well, for vegetarians and leafy carnivores. Move on down the line and choose your rice from brown or white, choose from pinto, black, or refried beans, and of course the standard cheese/sour cream/guacamole. Lots to choose from also in terms of jalapenos, cilantro, peppers, hot sauces, salsas, etc., as the counter employees load up your burrito or bowl.
As for desserts, Freebirds makes their signature "Pot Brownies" (haha) and they are magically delicious as well as large enough for sharing - go for it, I won't tell.
Fountain drinks, fair prices, huge portions, t-shirts for sale, lively employees, customer-made art all over the walls. A really cool place - just wish we had them out east!
