The Burrito Bus

who doesn’t like BUUUUUUURRRRRITOS huh! and the EFFIN Huge burrito IS FILLING it’s a two meal for me lol!
Guac is fresh and so tasty! not a lot of garlic… just the right amount!
they also have the glass bottle coke and sprite! YUMMM they call it mexican pop for some odd reason!
Anyways a great lunch :)

3.5 for size, value, and speed. Often food trucks are a longer wait than restaurants. They came out to the Baymont Inn near Rickenbacker Air Base on South Alum Creek Dr. 3 people sitting on the curb eating. 3 waiting for food. Us 2 ordering, and 3 walking up as we were taking our food to go.
I am never a fan of the melted nacho cheese. most have that ever so slight gritty texture like un-​dissolved salt. I asked if shredded would melt OK on my nacho’s. «If you add something hot.» Kind of non-​friendly with an easily detectable attitude. I can put up with any ‘Soup Nazi” for great food. The chips were store bought corn rounds with a lot of salt. The under seasoned ground beef had some huge chucks as well as small which are better for nacho coverage. The beef may not have been hot enough to melt the cheese. I never fault food temperature on food to go. Most standard add on toppings like Chipotle. I did say no onions, repeated it 3 times, and got the impression he was trying to scrape them off the rice. I suppose if I had an allergy, I would have been in trouble, since I tasted some strays.
The food came out fast like most Mexican places. It’s already cooked. Just needs assembly. I ordered the $ 10 Effin Huge, but they did not bring those containers. Thank goodness! The regular $ 7 was packed into a large sub container. Plenty of hot sauce to choose from out front.
I would order again, as I told co-​workers.
So minus 1.5 stars for attitude, onions, and under seasoning.

Just tried this for the first time at Dawe’s. It was worth the wait. I LOVE spicy food but my husband doesn’t. The mesquite chicken had far too much hot spice on it. I loved it but several people said it was way too hot for them. A must try!

To be honest, this place was just not good. I ordered their chicken burrito bowl and got the «Big» size with everything plus guac. I really wanted to like this place, but there was literally NO flavor in my bowl. Everything was bland and not even the salsa or guac could save it cause those were bland too. I literally had to douse this thing in tapatio to make it palatable. The only good thing I could say about this place is that they at least added the guac for free, and for the price the portion was decent. Maybe they were having an off day, but I definitely don’t think I’ll be back.

All aboard the Burrito Bus!
This really hit the spot for me as a lunch destination. The guys running this truck have a passion, too, and I like that.
Take the concept of a Chipotle, turn it into a truck, add some love, and you get the Burrito Bus.
You have plenty of options leaning mostly towards Mexican fare… Burritos, bowls, nachos, tacos. etc. Is it authentic? Nah, not really. This isn’t going to be like your favorite taqueria by any means. Think Americanized with Mexico flare.
Get the bowl or the burrito. Those are your best priced options, and they’re a heck of a lot more filling that a small sum of tacos. I ordered a bowl ‘HUGE’ size, and I ended up having enough for dinner, so if you’re looking for Value, then that’s where it’s at. Save your love of tacos for your Amigos on the west side and north side, but for filling bowls with great ingredients, this is a perfect option if it’s near you during a lunch hour.
The Adobo Tofu was not too shabby. Not as good as I can personally make it (hardy-​har-​har), but it was decent. I’d eat it again.
They serve coke in the glass bottles, which seems the be the quite fashionable thing now-​a-​days for trucks, and brings a little nod to Mexico. I approve.
The best part about this truck is that they got people moving. Even with a group in front of me, and two indecisive old people «Chicken or beef… Chicken… Or… Beef… Life… or death… No, wait!» I was still able to get my goods in under 10 minutes and with good and pleasant service! That’s always a plus, because personally, if I were shoved in a small, confined space on a hot day, with hot kitchen equipment around me, watching people making painstaking decisions on if they really want sour cream, or not… I’d wanna slap someone. That’s why I don’t really own my own food truck.
But seriously, this is a good, solid truck. Stay away from the price gouging tacos, and go for the other goods, and you won’t be disappointed.
$ 11 will fill your hunger void. $ 14 will fill you… PLUS some.
Definitely, approved.

I had lunch at the Burrito Bus with a few ex co-​workers last Friday and when I saw how large the burritos were, I was reminded of an old Bill Kliban cartoon that was captioned, «Never eat anything larger than your head».
I ordered the Hot Mama and chose the $ 10.00 EFFen Huge option. I requested carnitas, with all of the fixings, including guacamole. Was surprised when they handed it over by it’s size and amount of tin foil that was needed to contain it. It was a bit messy to eat, but very much worth the effort. They added more meat to it than I’ve ever had in a single burrito before, which is why it tended to leak the sauce. The flavors were great, all the extras were fresh and after wrestling with it for about 10 minutes, was able to get it down without causing any major spillage to my shirt.
Next time I see the Burrito Bus, I will stop and try out a few more menu options, just to see if they are as well prepared.

I had Burrito Bus for lunch today, and the flavor was great, and it was definitely filling. I had the larger of the two burrito sizes, which was a bit costly at $ 10. With the added hot sauce and jalapenos, it was pretty spicy, and that’s fine with me. The burrito itself is a bit messy, since they leave one end open, but I can live with that.
I didn’t get to try out any of the other options, but I will say I docked it a bit because of the pricing. $ 4 for 1 taco is incredibly steep to me, especially when I can get great tacos at other taco trucks in town anywhere from $ 1.50 — $ 2.
Overall, I’d definitely try it again and check out some of the other things on the menu.

My favorite food truck to date (excluding Jimmy Jawbreaker, which isn’t really a truck I guess).
It’s similar to Chipotle, but the chicken has a delicious and unique flavor. Friendly staff, quick and accurate service.

The carnitas tacos with corn tortillas are amazing. The carnitas is tender, juicy, and flavorful. The optional fresh jalapeños really made it for me.

pleasantly Surprised!
I dunno why but I had been avoiding trying the Burrito Bus for months. They are around OSU’s campus quite often, but for some reason I thought it wouldn’t be good. Well today my food adventure spirit trumped my fears and I tried them out. The menu was straight forward, I chose the pita de pollo. It was simple: pita bread with chicken, lettuce, tomato and sour cream. The chicken was well seasoned and tender. The toppings were appropriate and the pita was a nice touch. I really enjoyed it.

I got an amazing burrito from this place the other night after Park Street Festival. Granted, I had had a few drinks, but that didn’t make it any less amazing. Since I’m doing a vegetarian/​vegan challenge this month, I went with the adobo tofu and it was so tasty. Kind of spicy with a great texture. The toppings here are awesome. This place is basically like a Chipotle on wheels and delicious. Burritos are $ 7. Can’t beat that. If you see this place out and about, stop on by. You won’t be sorry you did.

ERRRRMERRRRGERRRRRDDD!
Let me just break down some important points for you.
1. You won’t find a better deal anywhere. The prices are amazing for the amount of food you get.
2. IT“S A BURRITO BUS!
3. Adobo tofu blew my mind.
I routinely seek this food truck out at festivals and during my work week for lunch.
Go to Twitter, follow them, eat burritos.

I had a carnitas Big Hot Mama burrito run through the yard at the Columbus Food Truck and Cart fest. It was swell though messy and a bit pricey. The carnitas were well cooked, which is what makes a burrito like that in my opinion. The vegetables were fresh and well prepared.
I’d need to try something else to give it a 5, but it’s already close.

$ 4 for a small regular taco!!!
Yikes, since there were so many food options at the Columbus Food Truck festival we simply wanted a taste of what the Burrito bus had to offer and got a single taco, two are $ 7, they are they same tiny ones that you can get for $ 1.50-$ 2 elsewhere and should not cost more than that.
Tastewise fine but just a complete rip off.
I also got the taco salad and they made up for it with give me free guac (usually $ 2 since I didn’t want any meat.
The salad was on a bed of chips which gave it that crunchy taco salad taste that I love, it was great, $ 7 is also a bit steep but it was good.
Still I think they need to work on their prices, the burritos were fair in size, go with that is you want something worth your money.
The guys are nice and work fast, not bad still not worth going back in my opinion.
