Taco & Burrito Express

This place is just average if not worse. There has been several times now that I’ve ordered a burrito and after one bite all falls apart (please learn how to wrap a burrito properly)
Rice is very bland tasting as well as their guacamole.
Salsa is rarely ever fresh
I’m all about supporting local business but after giving this place several chances I will not be returning.

First off, this place is VERY slow and they call themselves express? They weren’t nice people really for the most part. And they could care less about getting my business. You would think they would respect a big guy that would bring a lot of business. I have never felt welcomed when I walk in. The menu is on a wall up high in the middle of the place and is very awkward waiting for your food here. Ugly booths that are outdated and built for kids or very very skinny people, doesn’t look cleanly either. And also the food is never fresh hot. I always get it cold for some reason. It’s a shame because I love Mexican food and this is right around the corner from my home.

My mom lives down the street, so I’d SEEN Taco + Burrito Express, but had never eaten here. I was in the area running errands and stopped in — right around 6pm — to grab some grub before heading back home. It’d be better to support a local business and would likely taste better (authenticity!) than, say, Taco Bell (which was my first on-​the-​go idea), right?
I should have known something was up when I stood at the register for several minutes (the door rings when opened) without seeing an employee. When he finally did show (from the bathroom?), he looked less than thrilled to see me. He just looked at me — no smile, no «Hello»…nothin’.
Hmm.
I ordered the Bean Burrito («Queen» sized = $ 3.75) and mushrooms ($ 2.75). It was ready in a jiffy.
The mushrooms were plentiful, smelled so good, and seemed piping hot, so I dove right in… and bit into a mushroom that was frozen in the middle. Srsly?! So, I tried another. Also frozen. And another: frozen on the inside and floury/​gummy from the breading. Aaaaand then I gave up. I had half a mind to drive back, but figured it just wasn’t worth it.
Next was the burrito. Despite it being a BEAN burrito, the beans were pretty sparse; I couldn’t even taste them. I even checked the burrito and saw only a teeny bit of them smeared around the tortilla. It was so bland that I really couldn’t distinguish any separate flavors, really.
sigh.
Mannn, I hate trying new things/​places and being sorely disappointed. I also hate giving small places like this such a poor review. It seems TBE has a lot of potential, so I’m not sure what the deal is.
The $ 7 price point WOULD have been reasonable if it had been edible. I’d have gotten a better-​tasting meal at TB. And that’s sad.

One of my favorite Mexican joints. I always get the steak tacos (sometimes beef) chips and salsa. The salsa is the best I’ve ever had when it’s made right which is 75% of the time. I think it depends on ingredients and/​or who makes it.

The nacho platter is a must try!! not to mention the fried ice cream is the best, it’s a great little corner restaurant fast friendly service!!!

I’ve eaten here at least a dozen times and have to admit I get the same thing everytime. The steak king burrito and a cheese quasadillo and on occasion I’ll throw in a chorizo taco.
Food is always decent. The counter guy is always friendly and at this point recognizes me as amigo.
I would say if you are looking for cheap, quick burrito/​mexican meal, Taco & Burrito Express is definitely worth checking out. And it is nice that there is a liquor store right next store so you can get some Coronas to wash down your burrito.

Food is so-​so. I tried the «beef taco» which was hamburger on a tortilla with a little lettuce & cheese. Also a «pastor» taco that had so-​so meat but
