California Burrito

I honestly don’t understand this place. The food is SO expensive ($1.75 to add shredded lettuce to a burrito… yikes!), but the quality of the food is honestly mediocre at best. I will only go to this place when all other Mexican restaurants in the area are closed. The security guards outside of the restaurant are quite unsettling, too. I get that the restaurant is also a bar of some sort, but it’s the only bar downtown (besides Chicho’s directly across the street) that has to have security guards posted up outside of it which feels pretty uncomfortable when you’re just going there to order a burrito. The place is also unbearably loud at night, and wait times are pretty bad too. I had to wait 30 minutes for just a smoothie one night. It seems to me that the owner of the place is more interested in appealing to bar goers than running a restaurant, which is confusing since the place is obviously branded as a restaurant. You wouldn’t even know that the place is a nightclub/lounge without going inside the place, and even then, it’s not obvious until you see people headed to the back of the restaurant behind the kitchen. It’s beyond me how they fit anything back there that’d be large enough to resemble anything close to a club. The owner also just kind of hovers around everyone all night and doesn’t bother to interact with literally anyone, never smiles/welcomes anyone, and always has sunglasses on at night inside of his dark restaurant… which gives off a really weird vibe. It’s just a really odd place.

Call to place an order the young lady said they weren't accepting orders over the phone and that we needed to go online, so we did. Went to pay for the order but we could only pickup the order the following day. Had to call back and the young lady again tried to say she couldn't take the order, so she put someone else on the phone. Long story short our order was all wrong: 2 sauces, no napkins all the side orders were found in our food and the young lady was so RUDE when we called. But food was ok but for $70 for 3 burritos I wouldn't recommend unless starving.

The staff was friendly and the burritos are very filling. There are two sizes to choose from. I got the carne asada original and it was very delicious. Looking forward to trying their salsa next time..

Had a late lunch at this downtown Norfolk Burrito bar. Recently redecorated and arranged for convenience. The new menu makes the service a full Mexican style restaurant. My Carne Asada Burrito was delicious. Look forward to trying new menu items.
