Do you like really good, homemade, fresh salsa? Do you fiend for tantalizing tacos? For juicy steak? Have you never met a burrito you didn't love? Then don't sleep on Burrito Bay. The food is very delicious. The service is excellent. The consistency of quality across the board is impressive. One indicator of this is that Burrito Bay is the only burrito joint I will DoorDash from, content in the knowledge that everything I asked for will be on my burrito. That alone demonstrates an exceptional attention to detail -- a fine skill that takes commitment to quality, and that can seem like a lost art in this slap-it-together society. Their salsa is exceptional; we're talking real-deal, homemade salsa filled with that sunshine-taste trinity of cilantro, onion, and fresh lemon, not to mention the juicy and fresh tomatoes. Whatever you do -- get the salsa, and plenty of it. It's chunky and tasty and one of the most authentic salsas I've had. I love the steak burrito with rice (I recommend the Mexican rice option), black beans, shredded cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, black olives, onions, and of course, plenty of that mouthwatering salsa. I pay a little extra and have them add the fajita peppers and onions, which make for a very tasty addition. The steak is delish. I do takeout and have not dined in, but the dining area is clean and pleasant, and the staff members are friendly and very intent on providing excellent customer service. My dining experience at Burrito Bay last week left me with the distinct impression that they're providing some of the very best food, and easily one of the very best fast casual dining experiences, in Western New York. Certainly there are plenty of other restaurants that may be more authentic, but the salsa is the real deal here, and everything I've ever ordered has been memorable, fresh, and crave worthy. They seem to have a lot of young, athletic, male customers, and that demographic generally tracks with good eats, and generous portions at a mostly fair price. My recent visit/recent steak burrito compelled me to write this review. I feel it's really important to recognize the good stuff that remains in this world, and this restaurant is one of the places where they're still serving just that. read more

WATCH OUT FOR THE CATERING DEPT. - I placed an order for my daughter's birthday like I have for several years. This year, they charged me more than what was discussed and on their website. I ordered the Package #1 but this year less food and chips and they added a tip after they called me and I stated " NO! When I went to pick, they charged my charge already and said they can reverse it. I asked for management and staff he would call but did nothing about and said they can't do anything about it. What they did know was i had the tip in cash for them. I will never order from them again. read more

The food was very good. I thought it could be a little hotter, temperature wise, and find a way to let cheese melt more especially on the salad, but it's a preference not a health code issue. The person who took my order was incredibly inviting and professional and the owners came out too and they were super polite and even told me I didn't have to tip as much as I was intending. But good food and good service deserves recognition--especially since it was my first experience there. Best part?? There was no "post-meal revenge." My sensitive stomach tolerated everything quite well. Well done, I'll come back again, especially since my new office is close by. read more

I've been coming here for 15+years. New owners. Here is what changed: No annoying music No freedom soda machine No more pork served I believe that the place is slightly cleaner All the old familiar employees are gone. Pricey without the BOGO coupon. We still go when we can get a coupon but, it's not worth $40 including tax,tip.for two burritos and two drinks. What we used to pay for a glutton now gets us a regular burrito. read more

Garbage. Spaghetti sauce with toxic waste on a burrito shell. If you like esophagus melting heartburn, this is your place. And you're going to pay 15 bucks for the second worst meal of your life... the fist being anything short of food poisoning. I'd rather chew gum off the sidewalk that go back to this place. read more

My family and I absolutely love Burrito Bay! Never a disappointment. The food and service is fantastic!

This time a pickup order from Burrito Bay, large portions and delicious. Ordered a bean burrito and a taco salad, nachos and queso . All were prepared perfectly. They also give you after dinner mints, which is a nice touch. We'll be back again. read more

Used to be a favorite spot for tacos but man has this declined. The lettuce they put on my burrito was brown. The burrito made so sloppy it fell apart in 2 bites. Threw half of it away. 3 meals nearly 60 bucks and I could make better at home read more

I haven't been to Burrito Bay in years. I have only had the Gluten Burrito. I came here in college for the Gluten Bowl in 2006 and won 3rd place. A UB staple. read more

Colossal, immense portions of food and tastes that will make you want to return. If you find yourself on Millersport Highway near UB North, in Amherst,NY well worth to stop in for Mexican food. On Cinco De Mayo, not waiting forever for food and receiving quality, authentic taste and value matter. My mom ordered a chicken taco salad, my order was a wheat chicken burrito. Both items on their portion size, aroma and flavors had me at the first bite of my buritto. read more

Starving and craving Mexican? Head to burrito bay. Located in the same plaza as elmo's is burrito bay. We came here after seeing a buy one get one coupon in the entertainment book and we were not disappointed. There were only a few people in the restaurant, I'm guessing because we came only an hour before they closed on a Friday. I would guess burrito bay is most busy during lunch hours and during the academic year due to its close location to UB. Burrito bay is set up like a Moe's, as they allow you to pick all the fixings in your burrito. They also offer a "glutton" burrito, which looks like nearly the size of two burritos, tacos, fajitas, bowls, enchiladas and more. I got a chicken burrito with cilantro rice, black beans, chicken, lettuce, tomato, onion and medium salsa. Some more interesting meat options they offer are buffalo chicken, beans and steak. Great for vegans! My burrito itself was very delicious. I really enjoyed the extra cilantro and super generous portion of chicken they gave. The extra surprise of thus place is their soda fountain. You can choose the type of soda and any extra flavoring you'd like in it. It's like your classic dining hall coca-cola fountain. They also accept ub dining cash if you are a UB student! read more

This was my second time coming to Burrito Bay with my boyfriend who works nearby. We got takeout as there is no inside dining right now and they had all the tables roped off which was good. I got a chicken rice bowl my boyfriend got a buffalo chicken burrito. They give you a ton of food - the portions are huge. I can easily get three meals out of my bowl. I'm not even sure how they're able to wrap the giant burritos either. The price is very decent (about $8) for the huge portion you're getting but the food is just regular mexican american without much to excite my palate. Better than taco bell, though. read more

Always heard about this place but never made the effort to try. Really wanted a taco tonight so I decided to order. Very happy to find they have a traditional taco salad in an "edible" bowl as they list it. The ground beef was very flavorful and not greasy at all. We also enjoyed enchiladas, a burrito, and the nachos. The Mexican rice was so good it left me wanting more. All enjoyed the dinner and would definitely order again! read more

This place has been around doing the whole "higher end" fast food Mexican (think Moe's or Chipotle) for nearly two decades, and it has consistently been a cut above the chain stores that it surprises me this hasn't turned into a local institution like Mighty Taco (there briefly was a location in Lockport, but has otherwise not expanded). Their big claim to fame literally is the Glutton burrito. In my younger days when I could eat a lot more than I can now, that would be my go to (although I could never complete the Glutton King challenge of eating two of them in a half hour). My usual go to for meat is the Buffalo Chicken, although I also was a big fan of their pork (which due to supply costs, is unavailable now). I would normally order the regular burrito in the last few years, but because of how super stuffed they tend to be, would get quite messy, so I've changed it up to getting the burrito bowl, which substitutes the tortilla for extra rice. All the toppings they have available to add are tasty and fresh, and service has always been nice and courteous. If you're a fan of Chipotle or Moe's, and haven't been here yet, you should remedy that situation past haste. read more

Food is always great, quick and served by personable staff. Burritos are especially good.

I had a very bad day yesterday 3/18. I had to put my cat to sleep. One thing I was really craving was a rice bowl from Burrito Bay. Well, I got one yesterday. This time I got Buffalo chicken, nacho crumbles, cheese and nacho cheese( yes heart attack on a plate). It's breakfast of champions this morning! I'm eating some of my leftovers. They are so still good! The size of this rice bowl was HUGE and HEAVY. So good! read more

Think chipotle or Moe's with out the franchising. Burrito Bay has the same set up as any of those locations. They will work with you to get you what you want, which is nice. I have had the taco salad before with both chicken and buffalo chicken. I once just got a side of the chicken breast and it tasted good. I gave this Resturant a 3 star rating because of the atmosphere. The dining area seems really low budget and unkept most of the time. They also boast that you get a gourmet mint with your purchase, which is cute and nice, but it's not a gourmet mint. It's a regular mint and they forget to put it the bag half the time. Overall, I would still order from this Resturant when I am in a pinch for time and need some food quick but I wouldn't recommend it over another made-to-order Mexican place. Also- you can order online! read more

Burrito Bay - Taco salad with sour cream. That is a regular order of sour cream, not extra. - Mexican Near Me - Getzville, New York

Too expensive. I used a coupon, buy one burrito and a drink get another burrito and drink free. I had a chicken burrito, no sour cream and no guacamole and a bottle of water. $17.00 for a burrito with no extras and a bottle of water? It wasn't the glutton either, just the regular burrito. Chicken was also dry and chewy. The coupon used to be a great deal. Don't know if I'll be returning.. read more

Had a groupon for them so decided to bring home a rice bowl for my wife. She really enjoyed it. Got her steak with red and black beans, cheese, tomato, onion, cilantro, medium salsa, and guacamole on the side. Guacamole is extra. They can be pretty pricey but with the groupon it was under $6. Service at the store was quick and good with all staff being gloved and masked. I would love a little more steak but who wouldn't lol. Dining room was open with some seats roped off to keep proper spacing. read more

Great food at a reasonable price, and the portions are generous. The health benefits of this type of meal may not be what your MD would recommend but hey once or twice a month will do wonders for your mental health. read more

Great place to come for a burrito. I tend to find Chipotle, Moes, Qudoba and all such places pretty similar, and in terms of overall idea and food selection, this place wasn't too different. They had a pretty standard set of meat choices, toppings, and shell selections. What really set them apart though was the glutton! I'm so upset that I got a new phone and no longer have the photo but the burrito was literally as long as my forearm, and at least double its width. It was just as delicious as a normal burrito, but like that commercial says, who says no to more? It took me 3 settings to finish this mammoth burrito. Other than the size though it is pretty comparable to those other burrito places. If you're in the mood for a burrito though that alone should draw you to Burrito Bay. read more

Food is always good friendly fast service. Recommend to anyone who is looking for a better alternative to Taco Bell.

I wrote a review for this place about a year ago and somehow it got taken down. Maybe I was too harsh. To summarize: Their nachos are like the ones you can get at the movie theater. Salty, stale with that yellow plastic "cheese". You can put whatever wet goo ingredients you want on top but I wouldn't recommend it. The salsa is more like an italian tomato sauce. Maybe they could try selling Mexican - Italian fusion burritos? What they have certainly doesn't pass as Mexican food. It is a cheap bite, though. If you dare... read more

Burrito Bay is a famous Mexican body of water that is somewhere between the Gulf Of Mexico and the Raging River Rapids of Cancun. Apparently because of the complete absence of wind on this bay, ships' captains would sail for days and days and days on the bay and never get anywhere. So they would survive by eating stuffed Burritos, made from anything they could find on the ship (including the pieces of wood from the crow's nest, which they would dismantle, since the person manning the crow's nest was usually poorly due to scurvy anyway). Hence the name, Burrito Bay. It stuck, like a Selena record that's been used on a mixing turntable by an amateur DJ. If you're in the mood for something like Chipotle (or "Freebirds" for those of you who know what they are), but don't want to go to a chain, and instead want something a little bit more original and delicious, then Burrito Bay is the destination for you. It's close to several of the main college campuses, and basically serves up very cheap stuffed "tex mex" style burritos with as many fillings as you can dream into them. You choose what you want in it from the many options, and they stuff it like a Christmas Pudding (that's my new saying, get used to it), and then you feel completely full before you even get halfway through it. Welcome to America, buddy. You should have taken the red pill. God bless the burritos. Seriously, you'll be really glad with your meal at Burrito Bay. It's nomtastic. I still go there when I am in the mood for this type of food, and it's nowhere near where I live. What more do you need to know. read more

The food quality is awesome, but more importantly I used to have a huge trust on the cleanliness of this place - like how the employees put on new gloves each time they serve a new customer. I used to visit this place once or twice per week. Recently, I started noticing an employee walking around where the food is with a face mask on his chin, not covering his mouth or nose - on two different occassions, in the middle of the pandemic. I started to feel concerned and decided not to go back. read more

Eh, is truly my reaction to this place. I expected this place to be more similar to Moe's or Chipotle, but the flavors were a little bland. Upon walking in for lunch, I had 2 customers in front of me. They ordered this HUGE (and I seriously mean HUGE) burrito. I was shocked as I had never seen anything like this before, ever! When it was my turn, I ordered a steak salad with only lettuce, veggies and steak. I asked for the hot salsa sauce, and the salad costed me between $10-11.00. As I was eating my salad, I found it to be flavorless and bland. The hot salsa was not hot at all, and I didn't taste the seasoning in the steak either. In conclusion, I'd give the salad a 1/5 as I probably would not order it again. However, the staff were friendly, fast/efficient and the restaurant looked clean. Therefore, I'd give the restaurant an overall score of 3/5. read more

The food was so good I came back for more. I got three beef hard shell tacos they were packed. The tasted great. In addition, Mexican rice great favor. Furthermore, they have a mini Coca-cola freestyle machine I was surprise to find Minutemaid lemonade zero a nice refreshing addition for pop :) read more

Folks, this is a good place. However, maybe covid related everyone is slipping in quality. Please go back to what your are known for.

Absolutely horrible. I wouldn't eat it if it was free. The guy making my burrito accidentally put salsa on it and when I brought it to his attention that I had said no salsa he panicked and asked his co worker what he should do. Instead of telling him to just simply start over she told him to just pick it off... I watched in absolute disgust as he picked the largest pieces of tomato off my burrito with his fingers until he though he had gotten enough off. Then to cover up the remaining salsa he drenched the burrito in hot sauce, then he wrapped it up and handed it to me. read more

What a disappointment. Both of my trips to Burrito Bay in Getzville have been lackluster to say the least. The meat is bland and the beans are kept in water, I imagine they're straight out of a can with no seasoning at all. I will say that the portion sizes were generous and they've upgraded their soda machine, but honestly, I could make a better burrito at home and save myself ten dollars. read more

Listen go spend your 10 dollars at taco hell for those who have complained. This place is great, makes Moes look like he's part of the 3 stooges. The food is fresh and the Burritos are PACKED with goodness. People complaining about chips are ridiculous. It's call Burrito Bay not chips ahoy and talk about their sauces, how dare you. Apparently you need PUNISHMENT. Yep that's their crazy hot one and I got my punishment and it was great. You love Burrito bay and the kids that work their are way cool too. ROCK ON read more

Chicken taco salad is where it's at for me... Some tips: -order the salsa on the side -order anything else that could potentially be wet on the side- that includes peppers, black beans, and unfortunately sometimes even the chicken OR -order refried beans and rice in your bowl and it'll sop up any wetness from ingredients The chicken taco salad comes in a crispy shell/bowl. The bottom turns to mush without a good foundation. You can order online and pay at the store. I love this feature. Especially when ordering for more than 1 person. Things are less likely to be screwed up if you specify what you want yourself. I'm not a huge fan of the nachos and cheese. The chips though are super thin and crispy. The cheese, meh. Mild salsa is chunky pico de gallo and it's pretty good. Overall a decent place to order lunch from... (I like Chipotle better though...) Was good going down but I had KILLER heart burn later in the day. Oof! read more

This was my first time trying Burrito bay but definitely not my last. I ordered takeout and no I did, a little cold I can't blame that on anybody. I ordered a vegetarian burrito and it was the biggest burrito I have ever seen. It came with peppers and onions that were both sautéed as well as pinto and black beans and cheese. I ordered a side of nachos and cheese and the cheese was typical orange stuff that you get at the movies but not bad. The chips were yummy. Next time I will go and try the restaurant to see how the service is. read more
