Fancy Burrito

Is making a burrito just not for you?

Not to worry! There are plenty of people not willing to spend the time, and plenty of places that cater to them. Here are a few links to places you can go (mostly in Gainesville) where someone else will worry about making the burrito and all you have to do is eat.

Chipotle Mexican Grill – Quirky and fun, Chipotle offers a small menu with big taste. The food is reasonably priced and the guacamole is amazing.

Burrito Bros. Taco Co. – While the name says taco, the restaurant means burrito. Great local Gainesville scene and someplace you can’t live here without visiting.

Mad Mex – Located in Ohio and Pennsylvania, Mad Mex offers your typical Mexican food … only madder? The Web site also features burrito racing games. It’s worth a look if nothing else!

Qdoba Mexican Grill – Yes it’s commercial. Yes it’s yummy. They also happen to be nation wide.

Tijuana Flats – It’s on University Ave. That’s really all you have to say. The queso is amazing, but honestly I’ve never actually had a burrito there. I hear they’re good.
