Iguanas Home Of The Burritozilla

Great Mexican diner in San Jose Downtown. The restaurant exterior is flashy, especially at night. I tried their veggie tacos and nachos. Loved the taste of the food. Also, the orange sauce was spicy and but tasted real good. Their service was quick and outstanding. Lots of place to dine in and outside the restaurant. Highly recommend!

Service was very fast, this place is a must to try for the ones who love burritos and even for those who don't, this people really know how to satisfy the palate and stomach of other people who want to eat well and in abundance. Seen in a Man-vs-food episode, my expectations was very high and not only they really didn't disappointed me, but match my dreams to eat the American way: plentiful and tasty. Not made on purpose, but I preferred the burrito to taco Tuesday on that very day. Taken a super burrito, I've choosen "Al pastor". Highly recommended.

My first time here, the place is very vibrant and lively on the outside.   You can't miss it.   You can hear the music playing, it's inviting you to come in.  There is plenty of outdoor seating. Inside where you place your order, it's small.   There's 2 small tables and a counter for people to sit and eat.   The soda fountain wasn't working.   There are a lot of items to choose from they even have a happy hour menu. I asked the lady at the register what she recommended, and she was meh.  Clearly, she wasn't trying to help me, and she acted like I was bothering her.   I brushed it off and placed my order.  I watched in amazement as the cook made my food.  It was like art being made.  He was super nice. I ordered: 1.  Iguana nachos no beans - The chips are crispy and fresh.   This was a meal on its own. 2.  Super Iguana burrito -  This was big enough to feed a family.  We literally cut it in half and gave half to my parents.  We ate this at home, which was like an hour away, and it was still hot when we got home.   It was delicious.   Yummy goodness in every bite. 3.  Enchiladas side - I did chicken and cheese and watched the cook make it in the pan.   He lightly sauced the container and then poured the yummy goodness from the pan to the container.   I couldn't wait to eat it.   The chicken was tender and juicy.  Each bite was perfect and flavorful. 4.  Chips and guacamole - Crunchy chips and amazing guacamole. When the lady handed me my food, she packaged it so well my Enchiladas container tipper over, and the juice just spilled out on my vintage a d in the bag.  Lovely lady.  The soda machine was broken, and there was no agua frescas.  She didn't offer any drinks.   The only option was water and Gatorade. Highly recommend this place.   The food was amazing.   Ignore the lady at the register, and you'll be fine.

Is it a Mexican food place? Nope Is it the best place in the area? Nope Is it authentic casual Californian food? Yes Can you find comforting, delicious, consistent food at very affordable prices? Also yes Do I think you should stick to their burrito menu? Yes, it has it in its name, and you can have the best experience bite after bite. Do you need to go at least once in your life? Yes Is their orange sauce the BOOM? HELL YES Everything on their menu is worth it, so take the time to place your order and prepare your best first impression. Wait for your food while enjoying the music of the place (a perfect playlist, by the way); I recommend you eat outside and enjoy! You will most likely need that after-lunch walk around downtown San Jose.

I wish I had taken pictures of the food, but I was too famished to remember. I ended up getting it to go anyway. The place was spotless, and I actually loved the entrance. It felt like I was entering a roller coaster line queue – pretty cool, right? I ordered a chicken burrito and a steak burrito. They were quite tasty. But let me highly recommend the horchata; it's so good that I wish I could have it every day. The steak nachos were alright, with generous toppings, crunchy, authentic tortilla chips that reminded me of the ones I enjoy at Superior – similar taste and crunch. The fries were excellent, crispy and not overly potatoey. The service here was outstanding. The guy at the register was friendly, explained everything well, and had a pleasant speaking voice. He managed to be laid-back and professional at the same time. Apologies for not leaving a tip; I think I got overwhelmed and didn't see the tip option. I usually always tip small businesses. I'll make sure to do that next time! Now, let's talk about the orange sauce – it was spicy for me but incredibly tasty! There's ample seating both inside and outside. I typically expect stuffy and humid environments in places like this, but it felt clean and had fresh air. The tables were well-kept. One thing to note is that they don't give you an order number, so make sure you keep an eye on your order. We certainly didn't hear any numbers being called, so a kind customer in the other dining area kept repeating the number to us. I'll definitely return here. The only downside for me is the color scheme inside. I understand it's iguana-themed, but to me, it felt a bit tacky, like a childhood room decorated with a Minecraft theme. I think a cooler, more modern urban iguana theme would be great. The outside looks cool and hip, but once you're inside, it feels a bit underwhelming. Also, note that the restroom door is locked.

First off, I love burritos! Wherever I go to a new Mex restaurant, I get a burrito. If it's not good, I don't go back. With a name like Burritozilla, I had high hopes. It was a solid 4/5 stars. The prices were reasonable considering it's a downtown location. They have a 10% student discount that helped take the expense down. The burrito was decent. Had a good flavor and size, but wasn't the best I've had in downtown (California wet burrito was better). What was surprisingly good were the fries! Crispy and not over salted. Would I go back for another burrito? Maybe after trying a few more places, but definitely for their fries. (If this review was helpful, please hit the like button below)

Delicious food. Had the Super burrito combo, with beef, beans, rice, tomato. It was not too spicy but really juicy. I had a chat with the staff who recommend what to eat and explained the whole menu. During happy hour, drinks is included. Moderate prices. This place is not accessible by wheelchair. Although the outdoor seating has a ramp. There is an restroom, key could be collected at the counter.

Truly a home of Burritozilla! This casual Mexican eatery is everything burrito, not just any burrito—truly delicious burritos! On a weeknight, my friends and I found this Mexican restaurant in the neighborhood, just a few steps away from our hotel. Since we were a group of 12 people, we ordered nearly everything that was on the menu— Burrito, Salad Bowl (Chicken), Tacos, Quesadilla, Drinks, Salsa/Chips, and even fries! Love the food, (so fresh, genuine prices, portions were good), variety, and service here. More importantly, their service was pretty quick. -Wheelchair parking and outdoor seating. #Burrito

Ordered a super burrito and chips and salsa through DoorDash. The chips were super greasy, but the salsa (pico de gallo) was so good I didn't care. It was the best I've had in recent memory. I can't handle jalapeños, and was glad there weren't any in the salsa. The carne asada super burrito tasted good, but would have been better if it had been a bit warmer. It was big and I could only eat half of it. Again it was nice there were no jalapeños, plus I was able to select "no beans" when ordering off the DoorDash menu.

Ordered two carne asada super burritos and the chips and salsa after not having had iguanas in years. Was very excited for the burrito and their orange sauce which I think is better than la Vic's but was soooo disappointed with this entire meal! The sauce was so oily and greasy and not as spicy or smoky as I remembered loving. For some reason everything was very bland, meat and sauce had no flavor or salt. Even the tortilla wasn't warmed enough and too chewy since it wasn't warmed properly. Chips and salsa were also sad, no flavor. I don't think at this point it's worth going back ever again.

I haven't had Iguanas in a few years, there is plenty of parking around (street of course!) and tables. You have an option to sit outside or inside. The burritos are just as good as I remembered it, I wouldn't say its the best in SJ but good enough to compete. Their carne asada is seasoned well but if you are expecting the seasoning to be Taqueria level, meh. Overall good experience

See my pictures below for how the carne asada fries changed. Being in downtown FiDi, was feeling Mexican so I went here to grab carne asada fries. They were good for their purpose, as I walked 40min to and from to grab it, and they were crisp. But: - no cilantro though requested nor onion - front staff girlie was not having it that day Probably would come back since there's not many good food options near FiDi, but would have to send in extra prayers for cilantro and I onions as well as a good day for the cashier.

(2.5 out of 5) (Hayward and San Jose) The food here is not good, a 1/5, the ambiance at the new Hayward place isn't bad, and the service is alright, but the orange sauce iguanas has... 5/5! Pretty similar to la Vic's orange sauce, hence the similar reviews. I'd come here just to get the orange sauce then go to another restaurant and actually get food! When you come get the orange sauce.. let them know Rothyy sent you!

Trying to compare multiple taco spots on my quick trip to San Jose was a little hard. Stopped at Iguanas because of the really cool ambiance. The house restaurant, has ample indoor/ outdoor seating. The word-of-mouth is that they have a huge burrito, with shrimp as add-on, and amazing horchata. Now, shrimp is an add on ($5+) not a protein they normally make the burritos with. For vegans or vegetarians, there's a veggie option. Horchata- they were out. Hibiscus- they were out. Melon juice was the only thing left. The deciding factor in not ordering tacos was the staff demeanor in responding to questions about the drink selection availability. I did order their melon juice, it tasted fresh but sweet. Drank half only. Maybe I would try it again when I return but it's not on my must have list.

I recently swung by Iguana's Burritozilla after hearing some buzz, and I have to say, it's a mixed bag. First off, the burrito I got was genuinely tasty. The flavors were on point, and it hit the spot after a long day. I can't rave enough about their orange sauce--it's a real game-changer! Tangy and just the right amount of kick. However, I have to call them out for being a bit stingy with that amazing sauce. Seriously, if you're going to make something so delicious, why not share the love a little more generously? One frustrating thing was the lack of prices on the menu. It's a bit annoying to have to guess how much you're spending, especially when you're craving a quick bite. Overall, if I'm in the area, I'd definitely consider swinging by again, but it's not a place I'd go out of my way for. Solid burrito, amazing sauce, but a few quirks keep it from being a must-visit. If you're in the mood for a good meal and don't mind a few hiccups, it's worth a stop!

Great carne asada super burrito! I like the balance of the ingredients (there's not too much rice or beans). I also like the green zilla sauce, it went well with the burrito. I think the orange zilla sauce is okay, it was a little too creamy in an aioli type of way to me, and I personally don't like aioli much. We asked them to grill the burrito so the tortilla would be crispy outside but it wasn't that crispy. I could have done with a lot more brown and crispiness on the outside. The ambiance was chill, the staff is nice and friendly, and there's nice music playing.

I had a random craving of iguana nacho fries after not having it for years! Parking downtown is always a struggle but luckily there's a parking garage nearby with the first 90 minutes free. If you're lucky, there's also street parking nearby. I waited in the car as my sister ran in to order my food. The iguana fries looked a bit sad but they were still pretty good! I wish they added more green sauce. They also gave 2 iguanas sauce!

I've been a fan of Iguana's for 10+ years now and I've been to this location, the one in Santa Clara, and the one in Evergreen. I haven't been to this downtown SJ location in years, but I had it again recently and it's pretty consistent with the Evergreen location that I frequent the most. Usually my go-to is the super burrito with carne asada. The most recent visit here I got the super quesadilla with carne asada. It was delicious and had a good balance of all the ingredients. They raised the prices quite a bit but I think it's still worth coming to, especially because of their orange sauce. Service is good. Restaurant itself is ok, on the dirtier side compared to the other locations. Parking is pretty difficult in this area too.

I was missing some extra condiments that I paid for in my pickup order. I shouldve checked before I left but I forgot. Meat for my asada street taco was tough and chewy, looked as if it was steamed or boiled. Kinda bland even with their sauce. I requested extra cilantro and green onion because that was an option and there wasn't that much on it, just looked like the standard amount. The pieces of carne were huge so it took me at least 20 seconds to even chow down one bite of it before swallowing. I've had better at taco trucks, not worth it

Haven't been back in a while but the burritos still hit the spot. Ordered the Super Burrito with chicken and no sour cream. The service was fast and accommodating, and the ambiance is casual.

This is our favorite Iguanas Burritozilla location! Even though the parking can be challenging at times during lunch, we still like going here. If you're lucky, you'll be able to grab one of the few spots right in front. We love their super tacos - grilled chicken, al pastor, carne asada, shrimp, and even their super veggie tacos too. The nachos are a big hit too...generous portion of chips, meat, cheese, guac, sour cream, jalapenos, and black beans. Don't forget to ask for several sides of their orange sauce! They usually include one packet or container of sauce for each item, but if you like to drench your tacos in the sauce like me, they'll be more than happy to give you a few more. I haven't attempted it yet but if you have a huge appetite you can try their 5 pound burritozilla! The service here has been great each time we've dined here. There are plenty of dining tables available for dine-in. Although the restaurant may look a bit dated, it's quite clean inside. We've gotten take-out a few times and the food is labeled and packed up neatly. Another plus is that Iguanas opens at 9am (they also serve a variety of breakfast burritos and items) and is open late; 10PM Sunday-Wednesday, and til mid-nite Thursday-Saturday.

My first time here, the place is very vibrant and lively on the outside.   You can't miss it.   You can hear the music playing, it's inviting you to come in.  There is plenty of outdoor seating.        Inside where you place your order, it's small.   There's 2 small tables and a counter for people to sit and eat.   The soda fountain wasn't working.   There are a lot of items to choose from they even have a happy hour menu.      I asked the lady at the register what she recommended, and she was meh.  Clearly, she wasn't trying to help me, and she acted like I was bothering her.   I brushed it off and placed my order.  I watched in amazement as the cook made my food.  It was like art being made.  He was super nice.         I ordered: 1.  Iguana nachos no beans - The chips are crispy and fresh.   This was a meal on its own. 2.  Super Iguana burrito -  This was big enough to feed a family.  We literally cut it in half and gave half to my parents.  We ate this at home, which was like an hour away, and it was still hot when we got home.   It was delicious.   Yummy goodness in every bite. 3.  Enchiladas side - I did chicken and cheese and watched the cook make it in the pan.   He lightly sauced the container and then poured the yummy goodness from the pan to the container.   I couldn't wait to eat it.   The chicken was tender and juicy.  Each bite was perfect and flavorful. 4.  Chips and guacamole - Crunchy chips and amazing guacamole.    When the lady handed me my food, she packaged it so well my Enchiladas container tipper over, and the juice just spilled out on my vintage a d in the bag.  Lovely lady.  The soda machine was broken, and there was no agua frescas.  She didn't offer any drinks.   The only option was water and Gatorade.      Highly recommend this place.   The food was amazing.   Ignore the lady at the register, and you'll be fine.

I ordered uber eats and picked it up. Are you serious? 15$+ for this baby size burrito? You guys need to be shut down for this bull****. Don't come here.

To say that my experience at this Iguanas location was a disappointment would be an understatement. This is a San Jose staple, right? How could one even think to give it such a low rating? I went to Iguana's for a social event with my fitness club. This was a place that I organized because I have heard incredible things about it! Before we can talk about the food, let's talk about the service. The service was atrocious. It was enough to bring the rating down substantially. The person serving me and my club that day seemed to be a student, just like me. We went on a Friday at 3PM, which should be covered by their Happy Hour dates on their website. Oh, it's apparently Mon-Thurs? Fair enough, but the website is outdated. Second, I was informed about the student discount from a friend as I placed my credit card in. I had tried to ask the cashier if she could perhaps redo the order with the discount applied, and without eye contact, she told me I'm holding up the line. My fitness club was behind me, so I told her that I'm with them. She shoved the receipt into my hands and walked away. Alright, cool, I guess... not sure why she had so much attitude to begin with... I got myself the Best Burrito ($15) with carne asada meat. The burrito was decent. Very cheesy. The fries inside are fresh and warm! Packed with ingredients. The meat had a decent char to it. Took about 7 minutes to get. They only give you one orange sauce for it, which is not enough. The pricing did not feel justified. The longer I stayed in this establishment, the more problems I started to see. No menu prices listed is SKETCHY. Had to pull up the online menu which, as aforementioned, may or may not be outdated. One of my friends asked for the price of a quesadilla and the service person replied, "I don't know." She could have checked the prices in a second! Another friend was upset that they asked for a wet burrito which has a dollar surcharge and was given a regular burrito. The bathroom was also out of service. This establishment is carried by its reputation and by the cultural significance it has for the city. Unfortunately, after my experience here, I will not be coming back, and I would advise other people to check out other nearby spots that have considerably fewer red flags.

For $7.99 this was plentiful. Had a really good topping to chip ratio. Quick service and convenient to where I lived. Would come again, thanks!

I just went in this afternoon around 3pm, I asked too many questions to avoid any issues and the staff was really nice but that didn't help. What I asked for: First I asked if the super taco was a regular size tortilla (so I can order 1) or a small street size tortilla and the lovely young lady said we only carry the street size small tortilla so I ordered 2. I didn't want onions or cilantro so I asked if I could get no pico de gallo and add avocado slices instead of guacamole since it's made with onions and cilantro and she said yes. What I got: A regular sized corn tortilla soaked in oil that for some reason was not put on the flat top, it was cold and stiff. I also got it smothered in guacamole...$13.50 later I gave one of the tacos to my neighbor and had to pick out the meat I could save and eat it with a fork. I think she would have payed better attention and gotten my order right if she wasn't texting on her phone the entire time she was taking my order...Epic fail, will not be eating there again!!!

I came here because I saw all the famous eaters come here. The burritozilla is the biggest burrito, but I ended up ordering the second biggest burrito here. Me and a friend shared it. It was 1 foot long and thick. I could barely finished half of it. We got the rice beans sour cream Carne asada salsa and the orange sauce. It was filling and I felt tanky after consumption. There were alit of other people inside and the house is decorated like a Halloween mansion. The food tasted decent although the Carne asada could have tasted better. It was chewy. I should have gotten a grilled chicken version. I'll come back and try it again with another person at some point. The burrito was hard to chow down but I did it with a full stomache after. The service was average. The employees were busy preparing all the other people's burritos. The burritozilla though is scary huge and is thicker than the burrito we ordered. It came to about 25$ with all taxes and add ons. Defintely a place to try if you are coming to downtown San jose. An absolute joy to to consume

Over priced taco bell. This is definitely a fast food. I think taco bell burritos are much better than them. The guy at the register is rude. They had everything pre-made kinda like Chipotle concept. So it's totally not worth the price they are charging. We got 3 burrito and a nacho. The burrito are loaded with beans. That all we could taste. As for the nacho, my son really didn't like it. Don't go with the pictures since all those are fake. The food looked nothing like it. I would not recommend it. They charge $3 for can of soda. Like seriously. For 3 super burrito, 1 nacho and 4 drinks we paid $77 that is excluding the tip. I can go to a Celias and get drinks, chips and salsa and it still won't be this much. Ripe off. NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL.

After 5 years of living in the bay I finally made a stop at Iguanas. This place would be ideal for a drunk night craving. I got the super burrito with carne asada and it was good, however it has a weird smell, cant really put my finger on it, smelled dirty? I've honestly had better burritos, but I did like the fact that it was slightly toasted as a quesadilla. Not too much street parking available tho.

Great experience today. Service and food, both very good! The quesadilla was crispy and was a generous portion

I just finished trying to eat a chipotle chicken super burrito (no rice, no sour cream) that I brought home and reheated in a skillet. It was by far the worst burrito I have ever had. It was not chipotle chicken for starters. It was a flavorless boiled chicken. They made up for the rice with slimy bland beans...virtually no cheese...no guacamole, no salsa. That adds up to no flavor and huge disappointment. I can say with certainty that I will never again go to Iguana. Shame on you Guys.

Small burrito for $13. I guess I screwed up and ordered a regular burrito; did t realize it didn't even have onions and cilantro. Just meat and beans?? Anyways, I like the location near Mission Collegr much better. The BIGGEST issue though is they don't list prices on their menu.... I always get the super shady vibe when places don't list their prices. SUPER ANNOYING.

Not much food options at the convention center so decided to check this spot out since it's within walking distance. This place definitely reminds me of my college partying days when my group and I had late-night drunk food cravings lol. Huge portions of carb overload not worrying about food quality. The tortilla chips for the nachos were oily to the touch and the black beans were so soupy that it made the nachos very messy to eat. The chipotle chicken in it had a weird soft texture to it (reminiscent to canned chicken) and was bland. I think the staff use the same spoons for multiple condiments because I found a random bit of sliced tomato and lettuce. I took a bite of the super burrito that my sister ordered and the carnitas were overly greasy. Cool vibes here especially with its colorful building design. Can imagine this place being a hot spot during late nights with food deliciousness not being in the forefront.

Doordashed this place and my carne asada fries only had meat and cheese on them and was missing the other toppings. Wahhh regretted ordering this and didn't get a refund from doordash.

I have food allergies that I excluded on their Doordash form, but they apparently don't know how to read nor check for accuracy, because it was loaded with crap I cannot eat. Because of contamination NONE of it escaped. Doordash gave me a small refund for part, but it was a total loss, and I feel that Iguanas ripped me off. Will not order from them again. Also, according to my housemate who ate it, they were very skimpy with the meat.

Is it a Mexican food place? Nope Is it the best place in the area? Nope Is it authentic casual Californian food? Yes Can you find comforting, delicious, consistent food at very affordable prices? Also yes Do I think you should stick to their burrito menu? Yes, it has it in its name, and you can have the best experience bite after bite. Do you need to go at least once in your life?

It used to be so good, tried this week three items for $50 and tasted blah! Never going again, service was not Good either as they don't pickup phone calls. I am not sure if there is a change in staff or cooks, it's definitely not worth it.

So I'm from SoCal, I came out here for work. And I was recommended to come eat here by my auntie. And she told me the sauce is to die for, and that everytime she come out here she has to stop here to eat and get the sauce. The service was great when I walked in,too ordering my food. I didn't get the dude name that helped me out tonight but man let me tell you the food was super super great. And I CAN NOT CAN NOT, forget about the Sauce the sauce can be literally on any food, that shit make you wanna slap yo momma lol jk jk but it was that good . I would definitely fly/drive here again to eat and get that sauce again

Ordered a super burrito. The burrito did not come with guac or sour cream as advertised. Burrito was a reasonable size for the price but the carne asada was chewy Service was quick but wish I got what I wanted. Ambiance is nice. Middle of downtown San Jose and always a lively spot.

I love what they've done to the house outside. Super vibrant colors, but what happened on the inside. It's so....plain and bleh. I hope they'll be doing something similar inside. Came here for lunch, there was maybe 2-3 other parties eating outside. I got a mini burrito for $7.50, meat, beans, rice, and salsa. It was the perfect size for me. Burrito was whatever. Not much flavor, but orange sauce is a must. It saved the day.

First time! The establishment was clean and I actually really love the entrance. It reminds me of entering a roller coaster line queue lol I love that! I got a chicken burrito and steak burrito. I think it was yummy! I highly recommend the horchata tho! I really want to drink one everyday tbh lol it's tasty. I also got the steak nachos which was alright. They load up the toppings which was nice. The chips were crunchy and the authentic kind of tortilla chips. I love the tortilla chips I get at Superior and they had a similar taste and crunch which I loved. The fries were great as well. It was crunchy and not too potatoey The service here was beautiful. The girl at the register was so nice and explained everything well. She had a great speaking voice. She was chill but also professional at the same time. i wish I had left a tip but I think I was overwhelmed lol that I didn't see the tip option I just scanned my card and chatted away. Sorry! I usually always leave a tip for small businesses. Next time for sure! I wish I took pictures of the food but I was just so hungry I forgot haha THE ORANGE SAUCE! It was so spicy for me but soo tasty!! There is ample amount of seating inside and outside. I usually expect stuffy and humid environment In establishments like these but it felt so clean and with fresh air too. Tables were clean too. Make sure you check on your order because they don't yell out your order number. We certainly didn't hear numbers being called so a kind customer kept repeating the number to us in the other dining area lol bless his kind soul. I will definitely come here again! I think the only downside for me is the color scheme of the inside. I know it's iguana themed lol but to me it felt tacky. It's giving Minecraft childhood room theme vibes lol I think a cooler modern urban iguana theme would be dope lol idk what I'm saying but I know what I'm thinking. The outside looks so cool and hip but once you get inside you're like oh lame lol ALSO the restroom door is locked If you're worried about parking then park at the student parking building for like $10 it's literally right there and it's safer I recon it's like a 5 min walk from the structure Horchata! Get the horchata! I wanna try other stuff now

Was really looking forward to trying a breakfast burrito but due to the egg shortage we just couldn't crack it. However, I tried both the super and best burritos and they were delicious. Especially with the orange sauce. It was nice to get a discount as well since they were out of eggs You can't miss this place with its colorful purple and green exterior.

I went in there and ordered a big order tonight 1/23 at 9:28 PM. I ordered two quesadillas, a burrito, nachos with carne asada, and a side of fries to go. The bag was hefty and after paying over $42 I assumed everything was inside. I get to my house twenty minutes later, and realize the nachos are not in the bag. Obviously I can't make It back to the store in time before they close, so I call three times but they never answer and it ends up going to voicemail saying the mailbox is full. Extremely disappointed that I did not get my full order and spend an additional $10 for no reason. Shame on the staff for this. I will not be coming here again. Warning to everyone, double check your order before leaving because the staff is careless.

First, Spent $50 on chicken Nachos and 2 burritos! Second, Once home the Nachos had NO chicken!! Nothing , none at all. And they were not even busy to mess up that badly! I really did want to like them! I reached to them and never heard back.

Iguanas Burritozilla is my spot for the El Pastore quesadilla and Horchata fix! There's something special about how their tortillas turn flaky when cooked, and the filling is consistently delicious. Highly recommend for a tasty and satisfying meal.

The food is the best San Jose has to offer. The meat is so tender and the veggies are so fresh. Your order is made right before your eyes. The service is Grade A+ as you're made to feel welcome. The feel of the room was relaxing and comfortable. Treat your tastebuds to a treat and come on down to eat.

This Iguanas used to be really good. It's super dirty. Tables and floors look like they haven't been cleaned in days. Burrito was super soggy and not made correctly. Threw away most of it. Unfortunate to see this location go downhill.

Very solid spot for Mexican food nearby downtown San Jose. Service is pretty good. Nearby SJSU, and often frequented by SJSU students. Also nearby to La Victoria, which is much more popular, but I must say, this spot is better than La Vics. La Vics is very well known for their orange sauce, but I think the orange sauce here is a lot better. Highly recommend any of the burritos or the nacho fries. Just have to say, stay away from the quesadilla. Had a friend who ordered it, and it was way overpriced and not worth for the tiny amount of food he got.

Iguanas is a great spot to visit if it's a late night and you are craving some yummy mexican food. The reason why I like going to Iguanas alot is because of the orange sauce - its like a creamy spicy sauce that goes well with everything, it's something you absolutely have to try here! My go to is usually the super burrito with al pastor - the meat is flavorful and overall all the flavors go really well. I also like the best burrito if I am craving something with french fries in the burrito. Overall, you can't really go wrong with the order as long as you have the orange sauce!

Friendly staff, delicious burritos and we love their salsas! The restaurant is in a cute building that used to be a house. I miss the parking lot that used to be across the street.

Food - 4 Service - 4 Ambiance- 4 I have been going to this small family owned restaurant located near SJSU since my school days. It has always been a hit and miss kind of experience, But their iguana special sauce makes up for everything. My favorite items include chicken burritos ( portion size is big sometimes enough for 1.5/2 people , or maybe lunch for next day) and Flour Veggie Quesadillas ( for some reason I like it better with sour cream and without meat ). They used to sell packed pouches of sauce but not sure why they stopped. Overall a good option if you wanna have some not so authentic mexican burritos but still delicious. Be careful as sometimes you may encounter some unwanted people around the restaurant during late evenings. Overall I will keep going back and recommending people thai place !!

The girl in the front is racist. I already written my review on here & they deleted it. Welcomes white people with the warmest welcome while she told me wait 5 minutes for a bathroom that still had piss on the floor. That she claimed to be clean. The workers gave me the bathroom keys no questions asked. I never came in with an attitude, I actually said hi. If you don't like your job don't work.

Came here on 1/5/2024. Prices were very high at 15* for a chicken super burrito and 12+ for a veggie burrito. Both were cold by the time we got to our hotel(8 minute drive) so we had to microwave both for over a minute . Flavor was bland and required their delicious hot sauce In every bite. The drink selection was meager at best. We just drank water. No Mexican cokes and no horchata. Fountain drinks out of order. Food took a while even though no one was there and they were yet busy. Neither burrito came with chips either . I would prefer a more authentic taqueria with more flavor and will definitely not recommend this place unless you are a student or coming out the club early needing some not that flavorful comfort food. Just keeping it real. I mean It's decent enough but I would go elsewhere and not feed the iguanas!!!

I knew better but wanted to give it a try. Ordered the pork chorizo burrito, which should be called egg burrito w/a sprinkle of chorizo & a few tots. Way too much egg, barely any chorizo & no tots until maybe halfway through. They didn't have any avocado even though it's listed, only guac which should've alerted me that it wouldn't be fresh. It tasted processed & old......I ordered before 10:30am. Overall just disappointing & I feel like I wasted my money. No Coca Cola which maybe would've made up for some of the disappointments. Lesson learned, never again.

Most stop every time in San Jose. Their orange sauce is amazing. The portions are huge.

I've been wanting to go here ever since I heard about their "Burritozilla" challenge online. Now, I wasn't planning to do the challenge, but I was craving a burrito so I went here with a friend around 2:35pm for lunch on a Saturday. I got "The Best" burrito with carne asada and my friend got the "Super Burrito" with carne asada. The "best" burrito was ok, but my friend and I felt it was too cheesy. It's basically a normal "super burrito" but with fries and a nacho cheese quesadilla added to the burrito. The "best" burrito also felt mushy and got messy as I ate it. I tried my friend's burrito too and ended up liking their's more than the one I ordered. I'd recommend this place for the Super Burrito! They also sell nachos too so maybe I'll get either the Super Burrito or nachos next time.

I've heard of Iguana's for years and now that I live in the South Bay I wanted to see what the hype was about. I went to the Downtown location because it's closest to my home and was surprised to find out their disabled accessibility is pretty lousy. The only seating that's available to people in wheelchairs is outside. I waited outside for a while, nobody ever came out and there's no way to alert anyone inside of my presence. I missed out on what could have been a great burrito because I can't get into their building, Iguana's missed out on some revenue because they don't seem to care enough about equality of access. You'd think a San Jose institution like this would be more attuned to the diversity that makes up this city.
