So many options for all dietary preferences and needs - including gluten-free, meat, seafood, vegetarian and vegan. The staff was super friendly (Dare I say jovial?) and helpful in helping us narrow down our selections. I opted for tacos and they allowed me to "mix and match." Both were delicious and overflowing. This is in a food court with picnic tables out in the "hallway," as well as out back overlooking the harbor. read more

Gluten free and vegan options AND a burrito option for your furry friend! They are very accommodating for celiacs and change gloves/clean surfaces appropriately. Gwen and Earl are absolute sweethearts. Cannot wait to come back again!! THANK YOU! read more

Aquarium Marketplace is a food court and shopping mall that opened in Provincetown, Massachusetts in 1992. From 1964 through the mid-1970s, the property was actually a real aquarium known as the 'Provincetown Marine Aquarium'. It was owned by business partners Donald Gleason and John M. O'Connor. The aquarium's star attractions were three bottlenose dolphins named Jackie, Lady and Lucky. The entire property was converted into a small mall in 1992. Today hungry patrons can discover a wide variety of different cuisines including fresh local seafood, gourmet burgers, Chinese food, Tex-Mex cuisine, Jamaican food, baked goods, coffee, ice cream, and waterfront cocktails. Tenants have come and gone over the years, but "Fortune Cookie" (Chinese Food) has been around since the mall first opened. The whole complex is currently owned by business partners Benjamin DeRuyter and Bruce MacGregor. My family and I visited Aquarium Marketplace on our recent week-long trip to the Cape. We spent the third day of our trip entirely in Provincetown. When dinner time approached, we decided to head to the marketplace because they have so many different cuisines to choose from. We first stopped at "Native Cape Cod Seafood" (open since 2011). I decided to have the "Shrimp Tacos" (with rice and beans), my wife had the "Fish Tacos" (cilantro lime aioli, with rice and beans), and sister-in-law had the "Hot Buttered Lobster Roll" (with hand pressed fries). All of our seafood dishes tasted so fresh and delicious. We also stopped at "Big Daddy's Burrito's" (open since 1995) and got our son a "Cheezy Bean Burrito" off of the Kid's Menu. He really enjoyed it! We love how there are so many different cuisines to choose from at Aquarium Marketplace and we'll continue to visit on future trips to Provincetown! read more

Delicious burritos made by the friendliest folks around and so quickly as well! We picked up an order of burritos for some handheld sustenance during a sunset cruise and the burritos did not disappoint. The no frills stand is simple to find, a breeze to pick up, and they really take allergies (and the humans who have them) seriously. It's why we visit every year. Hoping one year they'll even have plant-based dairy to compliment their veggie forward meals. If you're looking for a fresh, simple, wholesome and quick meal on the go, this is your spot. Unless you don't like burritos in which case I think you're on your own there! But seriously, this is compassionate food by lovely humans. Thanks Big Daddy's Burritos and see you again next year! read more

pros: -the staff was awesome! the cook made suggestions while i was ordering, the lady taking my order was very personable, knowledgeable about the food and the area. she was funny and did everything with a smile. -personally loved the food court style of this place, tables available throughout where the food selection is, but if you travel back you can eat your food overlooking the harbor and grab a cocktail at their bar. makes for a very comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. -my meal was delicious! everything tasted so fresh and homemade. my taco meat was very flavorful. cons: i don't really have any! this might not be everyone's cup of tea and don't get me wrong, it isn't fine dining, but the food was enjoyable, the staff was great. this place is definitely worth checking out! the food court style makes it easy for your party/family get different styles of food, if everyone can't agree on one place. read more

We had chicken quesadillas with chip and salsa. Fresh and delicious. Their homemade hot sauce was the best. Sweet with a nice kick. Will definitely try there again! Highly recommend if you are having a quick bite while enjoying the view from the Aqua Bar. read more

Me and the gf just got some amazing burrito bowls! I got the saucy chicken burrito bowl with creamy salsa verde, and she got the saucy tofu bowl with peanut sauce. They're very different but equally delicious. Additionally, the service was incredible. Our bowls took maybe 2 minutes to be prepared and the woman who cashed us out (I believe is the owner) was bubbly and extremely welcoming. We will be back on our next trip!! read more

Perfectly enjoyable burrito in a town where burritos aren't easy to come by. Get the spicy sauce. It's delicious. Glad I discovered this place to satiate my Mexican food cravings and tired of pizza when I want something quick. Gwen is also super nice and friendly. read more

I know it's a Ptown burrito in a food court, but I've had great burritos from carts and being able to sit overlooking the harbor by Aqua Bar is an upgrade from most food courts, so I got over my misgivings and gave Big Daddy's a try. There was no line, but now I know why. They don't offer carne asada (grilled beef) on their regular menu, but they did have a steak burrito special, so I tried that. I got it with everything, include sour cream and guacamole. It was decently sized, but the steak was cold and the inside of the burrito was basically mush. And the real kick in the teeth was the fact I paid $22 before tip for that burrito and a can of root beer. Lesson learned. read more

The best stop you can make before taking the ferry back to Boston! I enjoyed my pulled pork burrito as I sat in the front of a fast ferry riding into the sunset. The staff will be very clear about allergens and are very insightful. Decent prices for basic dishes but the add ons are a bit high but that's the cape baby. Very much a order and go spot! read more

Great tasting burritos! I had several different varieties during our stay, and all were fantastic!! Super friendly and helpful staff! So very kind and respectful. Great view of the harbor from the deck, but don't get a drink from the Aqua Bar. Bad service, bad stock, just downright bad. 5 stars for Big Daddy's!! :) read more

Chicken tasted like it was canned chicken. Not impressed. Nothing special. Would not come back here again.

NOT CELIAC FRIENDLY NOT GLUTEN-FREE I was very clear with the staff here regarding my son's condition & its requirements--he has celiac & is 9 years old. They said it was no problem. He had corn quesadillas. Well, he just had the worst reaction of his life. Violently ill for hours, both ends. He puked on the Main Street in PTown. He was incredibly embarrassed & in pain. DON'T EAT HERE IF YOU HAVE CELIAC read more

Been ordering the chicken burrito with all the fixings and it's been DELICIOUS! All ingredients distributed throughout an enormous and very satisfying burrito. And Gwen, the owner, is delightful. Crave-worthy food. read more

Great service but the food has absolutely 0 flavor. Please consider adding some spices or marinades to the chicken

Pros: -The staff were very nice -Service was quick Cons: -Super chewy/bland corn tortillas -- Chicken Tacos on Corn Tortillas (2 for $7.14) The corn tacos were super chewy in a bad way (usually they're more flaky). It was a bit of a struggle to bite through them and the meal became quite a mess. The chicken and salsa were okay--not bad, not great. If I returned I'd definitely order something else (or at least avoid the corn tortillas). read more

Big Daddy's Burritos - Chicken tacos, no cheese ($7.44, June 2016) - Mexican Near Me - Provincetown, Massachusetts

Big Daddy's is in a little indoor strip. It's a take-out sort of place. We spotted Cajun catfish taco on their menu. Fish taco... mmmmm.... Cajun... sounds spicy? Is it? No, I was told. He was right, but he didn't warn me that they'd be bland. The twin tortillas were served overlapped in a paper basket with the toppings of fish, diced tomatoes/salsa, lettuce and cheese on top. Kind of a mess to eat - grab a fork to make it easier. $5.95 We shared the chips & guacamole for $5.95? - cool and creamy, with chunks of tomatoes, but not very flavorful. The chips came in two colors and added some much needed salt, however, so I used them instead of the tortillas that came with my taco, and kind of made my own fish nachos of sorts. There's a nice area out back where you can sit and eat as you look over the water and are serenaded by the music wafting over from the nearby club. If you need to clean up some, you can ask to borrow the bathroom key, which comes attached to a plastic lobster. read more

This summer seems to be a challenging time to find a basic easy breakfast in Ptown. Lots of places didn't have food they normally do likely to the difficulties they are having getting help. So, I ended up with a soft taco from this place. I am sorry to say I wouldn't recommend it. The food was not great quality. However, it is a quick bite, reasonably priced, and a fine place to briefly sit and eat. read more

Big Daddy's is a small take out burrito shop in the Commercial St. Aquarium building. We got a few burritos after tea dance and really I was not that impressed. 1st of all, they were kind of small, for the price. Not very fresh tasting, and lacked on flavor. Eh. read more

Great fresh delicious affordable Mexican - perfect complement to a Margarita at the Aqua Bar.

If you are in Provincetown and are looking for a cheap meal, go to Big Daddy's Burritos! Reasons why you should go: -As I've already mentioned: cheap -The cashier was incredibly personable and funny -It's conveniently located in the center (well, slightly towards the end of Commercial St) -Shares seating overlooking the ocean with other businesses in the area (very cute, though obviously slightly windy) -Most importantly: pretty great food! I got a rice and bean burrito ($6.25) and added guac for $2 Reasons why it's not a 5-star review: -Food is ever so slightly bland. I was really glad I got the guac because it added flavor -Maybe I just wasn't being observant, but I felt like the option to make the burrito a bowl was not made clear. I would have definitely preferred a bowl to a burrito. read more

Big Daddy's Burritos - Rice and beans burrito - Mexican Near Me - Provincetown, Massachusetts

I so wanted to like this place. The food was actually fine - but being told I didn't order extra sour cream when I ALWAYS do was a bit annoying. Their tip sign was pretty direct ( give us tips because our boss is a cheap a-hole) sorta thing. Well their boss also signed them into a discount program for BearsWeek which they didn't honour either. So I don't think your boss is a bad dude as he is giving back to the community and bringing you hordes of hungry bears (who will leave you tips if you can get their order right lol). .. read more

Good quality ingredients, decent portion size. It was my first time there recently, and I wish I'd gotten some hot sauce on my burrito-- it tasted fresh, but kind of bland. Some extra spice would have been perfect. Outdoor seating on the deck was fantastic. read more

Great food. Burrito does not quite describe what they offer. They are more flavorful than a traditional Mexican burrito and not the cookie cutter type like at that national chain burrito place. It's a great day when they open for the season. read more

Big Daddy's Burritos - Amazing food! Saucy burrito with chicken, guacamole salsa Verde and sour cream and hot sauce. Just wow! - Mexican Near Me - Provincetown, Massachusetts

Stopped by when searching for quick family meal on Commercial Street during July 4th weekend. Wife and I are vegetarians (never ideal for quick meals with kids). Big Daddy's was amazing! To begin, even though the line was out the door both the cashier and cooks were extraordinary professional, nice and under control. Everyone was smiling. Impressive. Had to wait a while for food but it was well worth it! Actually, the cook handed me the order and apologized for the wait, with a smile. Everything was fresh and outstanding. A homerun! We'll be back often. Well done Big Daddy's! read more

A very decent place. Located in the Aquarium mall right in the middle of P-town's busy-ness, this is one of the 5 fast food joints that is a safe bet if: - you are in a hurry and want to grab a quick bite - you are on a budget and want to have an inexpensive bite - you are open minded to go to a place with a Mexican food menu and won't judge if it turns out to be a 100% Americanized version of the Latino cuisine We were really in a rush and not up for waiting for about 30 minutes to get seated and go through an hour long dinner ritual. I was aware of the mall and the site of picnic tables was the clincher for me to grab something quick from here while my brother got us something from the next door Chinese place My big daddy (sounds so funnnn!) fajita salad was Good. Again, the die-hard lover of Mexican food inside of me was yelling and screaming at me as I was ordering the food while I had a Crystal clear view of the open kitchen behind the counter and all the cooking action that was being handled by 2 twenty three year old (guess) boys from the Midwest, meticulously fixing customers orders. No no no no no - this was not gonna be Mexican food I kept telling me. But in the very same moment i started singing "Let it go. Let it go!" (In my mind) My salad had some of the freshest greens (75% of the takeout plate) I have had in a salad in a while. The chicken was grilled fine. The 2 slices of green and red grilled peppers each were good too. The 3 colored tortilla chips decorated around a 2 table spoonful of definitely house made guacamole was the final touch. Oh, not to forget the soft fajita that was split into 4 parts and came hanging from the 4 corners of the boat shaped party plate. I was yearning for some kickin heat. Because I cannot eat bland make believe Mexican food. I walked in and asked the lady at the counter for some very hot sauce. And then there was magic. I was presented with a tiny plastic container that had a red sauce. What I could taste with my salad was a serious dose of dangerous red hot habanero sauce. Indescribable goodness. Made my night. And set my tongue on heavenly fire! Everything on their menu looked fairly simple and straight forward. And since I could see the kitchen from every angle, I knew the food coming out of it would be safe. They should change the theme of the joint from Mexican to something more original. And this place can be a 5 star potential. read more

Heard alot about this little place. I know ptown is expensive. But a taco bowl a hamburger burrito and 2 cokes in a can =$30.00 not a very budget friendly place I would rate the food a little better than taco bell. Not much tasteless and bland. I was very disappointed with this place. way over priced for what you get. I would find somewhere else to go. read more

I found the burritos that I have had during my three visits to be nicely prepared, tasty, filling (a FAT sandwich) and reasonably priced for Ptown pricing standards. Plus you can take your food to the deck out back overlooking the harbor. Beautiful. Recommended. read more

Wow! My boyfriend and I were mosey-ing ptown after a long car ride and came across this little taco place. Let me tell you the woman working there was extremely hospitable! She made us laugh and you could tell that was her genuine personality. Aside from that the food was AMAZING! I got the pork tacos while my boyfriend got a chicken burrito and both were amazing. When they ask if you'd like to pay extra for guacamole you best say yes or you're missing out on some amazing stuff. The habinero salsa was also really good. You can bring your tray to the porch and watch the boats off the bay. You really can't ask for more. read more

Big Daddy's Burritos - View from the deck - Mexican Near Me - Provincetown, Massachusetts

Went here for lunch to grab a bite to eat since I was craving Mexican food. This place opens up at 11:30am. We arrived shortly before and had to wait until 11:30am to order (which was fine, but just something to note). I ordered a chicken burrito with ginger curry sauce. The burrito itself was decent, but nothing special. The chicken unfortunately was a bit too charred in my opinion and left a bit of a burnt flavor in my mouth. I did enjoy the ginger curry sauce and the whole meal was pretty light, even in the burrito form. My friend got a bowl, which looked like a great option as well so I might try that out next time. Overall, this place isn't going to blow you away with their food, but if you are looking for a quick/cheap option, this is a good choice. read more

I live here and understand the difficulty in finding decent Americanized Mexican food on the Cape. Big Daddy's Burritos has changed ownership hands so many times now it's hard to keep up with it anymore. I've been coming here since Marie first opened this place as the Purple Cactus in the mid-90's. Edit: And from here I need to change my review as Big Daddy's changed ownership a year or so ago. I must say that they have really stepped up their game. Great seasoning, excellent pico salsa and homemade habanero hot sauce that will melt your face! Yum! You won't be disappointed. Fresh, delicious, and affordable. read more

Oh my god. So we stumbled upon here after hiking & having a (very cheep) beer at aqua bar. They let you bring the food from the restaurants into the bar area. The food from daddies was hot yummy & very well priced. We'll be back!!! A must visit! read more

An okay place. Note that these are American style burritos: black beans, pasty tortilla, etc. Service is iffy. Never fast, one time I was there they decided to give a townie expedited service. Okay. But because the assembly line to make the burritos depends on orders being filled in the sequence they come in, the next five orders were hopelessly scrambled. Best advice: only go if not famished and you crave this particular food. read more

This is a solidly nice place to get burritos for lunch. I had a burrito and my mom had a quesadilla, both were good. You sort of have to look to find this place. It's in an arcade-y looking building. Basically, it is across from the HRC store. Find the yellow equal sign and it is in the same building. A very nice plus is the deck overlooking the water. It was very nice to sit, eat, and look out at the harbor. The food is good. There's not a lot of heat in the food, which is surprising for a burrito place. The portions are about half that of a place like Chipotle, which is not an altogether bad thing. read more

There's a new sheriff in town - I've been eating here for years - so much so that Gwen knew my order and made sure I had everything I needed - and never failed to send me off with her beautiful smile and a thank you - Saturday I was there and apparently there's a new guy in line to buy the place - he was clearly miserable - and without a word -'placed my burritos in front of me - no tray, no napkins, no cutlery. When I asked for these items, he silently, and reluctantly handed them over. Huh ? So sad - I went back to register my dissatisfaction with him and his excuse was that he had worked alone for a few hours that day and it was "tough" - oh yeah ? Join the club - we've all been there. There's more to say but I won't. He is such a far cry from Gwens impeccable and lovely service I can't see him succeeding,'but this I know- this years-long customer will never go back. In one fell swoop, with his horrific people "skills", he lost this customer and to add insult to injury, my burrito was cold and dry - what a horrible experience and a sad day as I realize my very favorite place to eat in Provincetown is gone forever, for me. read more

Finally a burrito place in P-Town! This place isn't too easy to find, but once you enter the Aquarium Mall, you can't miss it. The staff was very friendly and the chicken burrito was great. I wish I ordered it spicy, but they gave me some extra hot sauce on the side afterwards. Order your food and go to the back waterfront patio to eat! read more
