"A former Tahoe burrito maker went west to settle down in Truckee, where he established this temple to one of San Francisco’s favorite portable dishes. A favorite of snowboarders and skiers headed to the mountain, the dishes here are enormous, and the prices — like a tri-tip sandwich for under $10 — are unbeatable." - Dianne de Guzman, Paolo Bicchieri

Not sure what the hype is about or if we just happened to come on a bad day, but the food was atrociously bad. Burrito had zero sauce in it, Tri-tip was very dry and over cooked, and the burrito looked like it would be something off a kids menu. The other plate was a platter full of the same tasteless dried out Tri-tip and the most dry chicken I have ever eaten in my life. Nothing had flavor, except the medium salsa we got with our chips, that was all liquid. Not sure if thats their style, but it was basically just watered down hot sauce. Really odd, it certainly wasn't salsa. The Mexican rice was cold and bland on both plates. Tasted old and left out all day. $50 + %20 tip and neither of us finished our food. Horrible experience, there were at least 6 people working and not a single one of them looked like they cared about anything. I get its hard to hire up here, but if you have 6 people working, odds are at least one should know what they're doing. If you like dry meat, no sauce on your food and zero customer service, this is your spot.

I don’t understand the good reviews. It’s quick and cheap, but the food is not even good. My wife got two tacos, meat and tortillas were decent, but that’s all there was to the taco. No onion, no salsa, no cheese… I mean these aren’t even street tacos. I was excited to try the chile relleno stuffed burrito… but it was pretty bad. Maybe the normal burrito would have been better, though I kinda doubt it. The chile relleno itself was okay, but it was the burrito outside some sad rice, beans and maybe I got pork, but didn’t see much of it. Anyways, not worth returning. Too many good restaurants in Truckee.

Great little burrito spot. They use rotisserie chicken in their burritos which gives it a unique flavor. I also ordered the chile relleno burrito which is basically a stuffed chile relleno in a burrito form. They do charge extra for salsa which is kinda annoying but the tasty food made up for it.

Very friendly staff. Pretty good portions for the price and the food was rather good too. Ordered online and it was ready by when I arrived, which was only 20 minutes or so after I put in the order. Their verde salsa is not a lime sauce, which almost disappointed me, except for the fact was a very good kinda sweet sauce, that was unlike any other green salsa I remember and turned out to be a good surprise. Their habanero salsa labeled only as "hot" online is great for any habanero enjoyers. Their beef golden burrito in all was great.

This was an excellent burrito! My wife and I stopped in for burritos after skiing and it was amazing. It’s clean and tidy. The food is delicious. The staff are really friendly.

This may be insignificant, but it's a matter of principle. The last bullet point for a Family Pack is "Salsa". I was refused salsa because I didn't order tortillas. The second bullet point says "Tortillas or Garlic Bread". I was told that salsa did not come with garlic bread, which I ordered. Clearly, the menu needs to be updated to reflect policy. However, the cleck was indignant.

Best Mexican food in Truckee. Fastest Restaurant service in Truckee. Previous review: Excellent tacos and huge burritos. Smells like floor cleaner, just like the taco shops in San Diego.

Decent food for a good price. Got some tacos and a burrito. The tacos were a bit too simple and the chicken was sorta rubbery. The burrito was good, but still really simple. They have awesome salsa which really makes up for all of the above.
