Well a lot of times we discuss the under the radar restaurants in this city so people can experience some diversity. How about this for under the radar…located inside of a gas station convinience store! Thats right, I was first introduced to this burrito carry-out restaurant about a year and a half ago when they expanded to their second convenience store. I was told they are the best burritos I would find in Albuquerque, and i agree that these are very good.

For the most part I get the big asada burrito, which has two portions of grilled asada steak, bacon, pico de gallo, potatoe, and cheese. It is a huge burrito and only runs 5.99. They have a menu with mainly traditional burrito items arranged is some pretty good variations and combinations (check out the website for the menu). In general the price range is from 3.99 to 5.99 and all of the burritos are made on a grill right in front of you. Of course for people on the go sometimes they will make breakfast burritos ready for you to just walk in and pick them up. They give you a receipt and you pay at the convenience store cash register.

I have only had a problem during one visit where my potatoes were undercooked and hard. Other than that they are consistent in giving you generous portions and a huge burrito that looks like it might not hold in the tortilla.

What can I say about the atmosphere…its a gas station! You probably don’t want to hang out and enjoy the scenery unless you like looking at the nutritional facts of ranch doritos. Oh and for all of the smooth ones out there, you may want to take your date somewhere else (although the flowers are cheap). But if you have a big appetite and want some good, steaming hot burritos, i would recommend this restaurant.
