    Big Mama's is big on flavor. It was our first official day in Colorado, it was Emily's birthday weekend and she wanted breakfast burritos to start it off on a delicious note. After a few minutes, she found Big Mama's Burritos and said that was our destination... so we all loaded up in Sammy's car and headed that way. As we pulled up, I made a comment about how I saw it on our drive into town just 12 hours ago. In the dark, it looked rundown and closed. In the summer morning sunshine, it didn't look much better but in we went. On the wall across from you as you enter, they have a white board with their daily specials on it. The deal is a burrito for $5 with egg, potato, meat, cheese, and chile. The meat inside is what rotates daily and Saturday happened to be ham. I bought Emily and my burrito and it was only $10 and change. Not knowing the size of the burrito, we didn't know if that was a good deal or not. We waited in the small building while people kept pouring in and ordering food. While there is room to sit down and eat, there isn't much space if there's anyone else seated. I made the mental note that despite the look of the place, the amount of people coming and going was a lot. After about 10 minutes, all 4 of us had our burritos and we headed out to get coffee and continue the day. We stopped at Subjective Coffee to get some caffeine and eat our haul. As we unrolled our burritos, you could tell it was filled to the brim. Emily and I dug in first since Sammy and Kero were still waiting for their coffees. The first bite was pure bliss and each bite after that only got better and better. For $5, this may have been the best burrito I have ever had. Sure, I've had fancier ones and bigger ones but for just the price alone... this was the best thing ever. Emily, Sammy, and Kero thought the same and we were all delighted that despite the shady look of the place... we had some bomb burritos to start our day. We stayed in Colorado for another 3 days and there wasn't a day where I didn't mention how I would be okay with going back for more. Even if the food was just so-so, the price alone made it worth it... not with just how expensive everything is getting but with how pricey Colorado can be. Big Mama... whoever you are... you have a BIG fan in Central Illinois.

    THE BEST breakfast burritos you'll ever have Customer service is great, and they had our food ready less than 10 mins after ordering! Fresh, hot, and delicious! I got the bacon breakfast burrito smothered with medium chili! Ignore all the haters giving less than 5 stars. Probably a bunch of Karen's looking for somewhere to spread their hatred.

    Good burritos. Great price. They do take orders over the phone. Doesn't have drive-thru. Great service. Inside is a really small place.

    No extra meat, no extra egg, where's the green chili?

    I've been going here for ten years, as I live down the street. About a year ago, their burritos started being 85% potatoes w/ the tiniest amount of eggs mixed in there somewhere, although you cannot even taste them. Hardly any green chili. I ordered a Big Mamas burrito with double the meat & green chili and an extra egg. There was no double meant, hardly any green chili and no extra egg. Such a disappointment and waste of money. The quality of what was my favorite burrito restaurant is now below par.

    We heard about Itacate from a friend of ours and we had to stop by for lunch - especially when we…read morelearned it's only 7 min away. We spoke with David and learned about their food and how much love they put in each dish. They have only been opened for 2 years. Service is friendly and the restaurant is very clean and modern. The food was phenomenal and Itacate is added to our list now. For starters, the fresada was delicious. It is a strawberry lemonade. I also ordered a Mango version to go. Very refreshing. We started off with the Queso Fundido with chorizo. It was hot and the cheese was just so good and stretchy. Such a nice find - we don't see it on menus in Colorado so must try. We ordered several tacos - birria, cochinita, shrimp, and fish. Every taco was delicious and full of flavor on its own. The rice and beans were also very well made. Each bite just bursts in flavor. David was kind enough to also let us try the Pambazo which is kind of like a torta but they grill it with the sauce on the outside. And if you put an egg in it, it can be fantastic breakfast sandwich. For dessert, we ordered the deditios con nieve which is funnel fries with sauce and coconut ice cream. It's deconstructed funnel cake essentially which my bf enjoyed because he can eat just the fries and ice cream. All in all, 10/10 experience. We will def be back

We both had a couple of tacos which were all delicious: 2 chicken, 1 shrimp and 1 fish. All of them were GF except the fish, due to the fish being breaded. The tortillas are deep fried which help them to hold together perfectly. The shrimp and chicken were both perfectly cooked and really flavorful. the cheese in all of them was delicious and gooey. They have a pretty big menu and we saw lots of delicious looking dishes floating by. Lots of vegetarian options too. (including potato tacos of which we ordered 2 to go and they were very well received). The service was great and very friendly. We will be back. Yum. The ambiance is nothing fancy but who cares when the food is so good!

The biggest issue was the experience with Devin, the GM. His interactions while taking orders came across as dismissive and somewhat arrogant, which set an uncomfortable tone from the start. What was more concerning was how he spoke to and treated the team members he was supervising -- it felt unnecessarily sharp and demeaning, especially in front of customers. There was also a noticeable delay with billing and follow-up, and communication around timing wasn't very clear. We sat at the bar, so it was a bit tough to ignore him since he was directly in front of us, serving as the bartender. A little more attentiveness and courtesy would have gone a long way. That said, Matt truly stood out in the best way. He was gracious, warm, and incredibly courteous. He took time to share his personal favorites, offered some off-menu secrets that genuinely elevated our tasting experience, and even suggested local festivals and activities to my friend who had just moved to the area. In a world that has felt especially chaotic lately, his kindness was deeply appreciated -- perfectly paired with a side of tacos and Topo Chicos. I hope this was just an off day on the management side, because the spot has promise. With more polished and respectful customer service -- especially at the leadership level -- the overall experience could improve significantly.

But as luck would have it, today, I drove right by and decided to stop in. I didn't expect a big dining room with two sides, but they had or the giant window into the kitchen that lets you see them pressing the Fresh made corn tortillas. That was a special treat. They were very patient with us as we brought our dog inside and told us as long as he doesn't fart and serve the other customers they had no problem with him being there :) We tried some of the tacos and the Horchata Agua Fresca. Everything was delicious, I originally asked for their recommendation on which tacos to get and he said you can't go wrong, so I opted for one El Pastor one Carne Asada, and one birria taco add cheese. Everything was so good, the perfect balance of flavors and very generous portion - these tacos were stuffed! They also have an awesome salsa and topping bar with tons of options and a serve yourself format with little containers and lids. At $3.50 per taco this is a super reasonable place for a bite and I'll definitely be back anytime I'm near Westminster.
