First my husband ordered quesadillas without guac & then I corrected the order for it to include guac. It wasn't added, so I asked for it on the side and I as a paying customer was questioned... The quesadillas didn't come with guac it is included & the cashier literally asked the employees if I requested with guac they said no... Next time do not question the customer who already paid for their food to include guac & it didnt just provide on the side when request & question the employees later! read more

I have had good food from their location at ORD so I stopped here for tacos for lunch. Shrimp is made to order but then I am standing in the way of the line, waiting to add toppings after paying. Awkward. And after all that they were not good. read more

This is the best Burrito Beach location for a variety of reasons. Unlike other locations, this has the full menu, including a custard stand. It's inside the Northwestern Hospital, so it's always clean and busy. The food is good, though make sure you ask about spiciness of different things (always order the spicy queso on the side). The music can get really loud, though if you need a quieter place there's plenty of seating in the main food court seating areas. read more

My son was hospitalized for 6 days at Luries and I ate at Burrito Beach at least 3 times. While their build your own burritos are good- I could not get enough of the caldo de pollo. The soup is just so flavorful, and you get their char-grilled chicken, with rice, lime, and green onions, and tortilla strips. The soup was just so comforting- I even fed it to my son, as one of his first meals as soon as he got cleared to eat. I wish I had a location closer to me just so I could order the soup. Service was okay- at times it was busy, but more so during the lunch rush. read more

Whenever I have a medical appointment at Northwestern Hospital I always stop by Burrito Beach afterwards. It's become a normal part of my routine. I usually order the grilled chicken tacos and I really like that they are served on soft corn tortillas. They're fresh, authentic, and they taste great! But what really keeps me coming back are the 3 different salsas, each with its own unique flavor. And they're so fresh that they make every bite taste even better. The staff is always friendly & the service is consistently great. If you are ever at Northwestern's Hospital campus & need a quick, delicious meal, Burrito Beach is definitely worth a visit. read more

I had the chicken burritos from here for the first time this year, and I have to say, I am now a converted fan! I now prefer the burritos at Burrito Beach over Chipotle. In my opinion the chicken at Burrito Beach is more flavorful, and I also really love the seasoned yellow Spanish rice. You can add a scoop of guacamole for an extra $3 for extra deliciousness. You can sign up for an account with their mobile app to get a coupon for 1 free entree. read more

The food here is delicious, especially the asada chicken burrito. The birria burrito was tasty as well, and the surprising standout was the caldo de pollo soup. Highly recommend the soup. The portions for the burrito are generous, although it is rice and bean heavy. The service at this location when I went was quite slow, so I don't know if I would be eager to come back to this one. But people give each other some space when standing in line, which may be because it's in a hospital building and many of the customers seem to be healthcare workers read more

Tasty food and excellent value for the price -- especially given the location! Our fam enjoyed the quesadillas, fish tacos, burrito bowl, chips, salsa and queso. read more

Ordered a steak bowl and it was great!! Yummayyy! The portion was more than enough. It was enough for three people!!! The line is long however it's very deceiving. They move fast here! The line is just an example of how much people live their food. There were 17 people in front of me today. It took me 6 minutes waiting before it was my turn. That's relatively fast. read more

I have never been to a burrito beach but I was starving from fasting and the location was convenient inside the hospital. Around 11am the line was minimal and plenty of seats. I wanted to try the shrimp but it would have been a five minute wait so I got a steak burrito. It was great! I would say it was better than chipotle and I love chipotle. Next time I'm at Northwestern this will be my new lunch spot. read more

I give it a star because the Miguel's burrito bowl is lit! The customer service sucks. They have attitude some days for no reason at all. I order online. I go at the time it says it's ready. And I give my name. And it's always a problem. It's not ready. They can't find order. Something. Today o placed an order to be ready by 715 am because they open at 7. Get my confirmation code. Cool. I get there at 7:15 doors are closed chairs are on tables. Employees eating, cleaning, talking doing their thing. I go to knock and there's a sign saying they are closed. I knock the lady screams they are closed. I knock again she comes out and first thing she says is that they are closed. I inform her I placed order she replies to me with one word "no" I tell her yes I placed an order I show her. She says to wait where she goes back inside and closes door in my face. I see her there eating a cooking sipping on a beverage. Finally another lady comes out asking"can I help you?" She knew why I was there. I asked if I was getting my money back. Her response is they don't have my order because they are closed. Horrible!!! I cancelled my order myself. read more

Today I would have to say was one of the worse time i've ever ordered from Burrito beach. I ordered a crispy Quesadilla on to get a very soft runny quesadilla. The Lettuce was old and the meat was unseasoned and un done. I'm very upset. The customer service was horrible because they can bearly speak english so it was over all horrible read more

I ordered 3 carnitas tacos, however the taco shell was wet and soggy from the lady not making draining some of the juice from the meat. And there was also no salsa for my tortilla chips. Very disappointed. read more

There are a number of options from which to pick for breakfast at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, and after having tried all of them, I have to say that Burrito Beach's breakfast options are the best combination of freshly cooked ingredients, flavor, generous portion size, and affordable pricing. I ordered a Miguel's Famous Quesa-zilla, which was excellent! It's made to order and features freshly scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, flavorful potatoes/onions, melted cheese, fresh guacamole, and a zesty chipotle sauce -- all on top of a soft tortilla. (FYI, the Northwestern hospital location is the only one in the city that offers the quesa-zillas.) It was super flavorful and the provided salsa gave a great spicy kick to the dish. Will definitely be back to get this again! read more

THIS BURRITO BEACH IS AMAZING!! I purchase food from Burrito Beach every morning and most of the time for lunch, my coworkers say I should have stock in Burrito Beach . Everyone is pleasant from the time you enter the restaurant until you receive your food. The employees remember you, which is plus. I never have to tell my order anymore when I go in, even if it's a new employee, theyll already tell them how to make my order, which is my special creation of the Miguel's breakfast quesadilla. I stopped going about 4-5 months ago for my own personal health reasons but I went yesterday and all four employees greeted me with BIG SMILES and said they missed me, asked about my health and family...and of course they already started my order without me telling them what I wanted, they remembered. Please stop by and visit if your ever in the area or in Northwestern Memorial Hospital, 2nd Floor, you'll enjoy the Food,The Staff and the vibe of the restaurant, they ALWAYS have an amazing music playlist!! ~Sean T!! read more

This is my go to for lunch, there is enough choices to keep it fun and new, but still authentic enough to satisfy my taco/salad craving. Make sure to join the rewards you will enjoy and you will want your free entree for all of your purchases. read more

I ordered from Burrito Beach through the Grubhub App. It was my 1st time ordering and most likely the last. My order was missing half my order. Not a good way to impress a new customer or keep a customer. I guess the driver was hungry. As for the food I got. It was actually pretty good. You should have gotten the order correct and this would have been a positive review. Update: The general manager read my review and apologized. So for that I added 1 more star. read more

I love Burrito Beach. I am fortunate to have one near my work, and it's always a nice treat to get at work. I love to create my own bowl. They have a ton of options, more than Chipotle! They have many meats and toppings to choose from. I love their guac! A great fast meal! read more

Food is delicious and the staff is great! So friendly and helpful! Always a go to for lunchtime!

Came here for a quick lunch. I ordered a Mexicali quinoa salad and it was good! Serving size is generous, and I appreciated that I could customize my bowl at no extra charge. I chose my bowl to include lettuce, black beans, tomatoes, quinoa, jalapeños, bell peppers, and guacamole. Similar flavors to Chipotle and is a comparable option and price point! read more

The food here is delicious with fresh ingredients and fast service. I've enjoyed the steak tacos and quesadillas several times here before. The steak tacos are plentiful with the filling and toppings and the tortillas are grilled nicely and fresh. Steak is tender; no fatty or grizzly pieces. The salsas are flavorful and spicy to compliment the steak perfectly. Quesadillas are a huge portion with plenty of cheese stuffed inside. Comes with two big wrapped tortillas plus chips and salsa. Everything here tastes great with quick service. Will be back here more in the future. read more

best burrito beach spot in chicago, customer service was awesome, clean. The food is fresh and better than the other spots.

This is the best restaurant in Chicago! Outstanding customer service! Very clean all the way around! Great Breakfast and Lunch! I can't wait until I return! I will continue to give this business my money- and I am very happy to do so! Bacon, eggs and potatoes for breakfast. Cabo shrimp, Chips and guacamole for lunch. Thank you all for your great service and great product! read more

I have been a huge fan of Chipotle, never had Burrito Beach until recently had it at a catered seminar at Northwestern. Then I checked out this location and I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised! Fish platter is awesome! Fish is freshly grilled (Chipotle doesn't have that) they have shrimp too. I feel the ingredients are more flavorful than chipotle for sure! Their chips are bigger in portion than chipotle and more crispy. Def goes well with their creamy guac. The best thing about this burrito beach is that they have super tasty cookies (chocolate chip, white chocolate and macadamia nuts, and raisin oatmeal) and brownies. Their ice cream is da best (they serve both custard and frozen yogurt !!!!) read more

Ten times better then chipotle. Steak for phenomenal in the burrito and the place is so clean and chill. Very very good

This is a solid spot. I meet my boyfriend for lunch a lot since he works in the building, and I think this is the best food place in there. The tacos are pretty yummy and really filling. The veggies are always super fresh. I get the chicken tacos with spanish rice, baja chicken, and basically extra of all of their veggies. Their cabbage topping is my fav! It's soft, but still crunchy, and tastes like it's marinated in some kind of citrus. The tacos come with chips, too, which is nice. Their burritos are large but nothing amazing. I think at this point I'm just not a fan of these type of pseudo-Mexican fast food places when it comes to burritos. Or maybe I'm just used to really yummy ones from when I lived in California. We've had their mojo (or whatev) quesadilla. It was decent. Not amazing, but not bad. Worth a try if you're interested in it. Maybe I'll try one of their regular quesadillas. I've had their custard and shakes too, which aren't bad but not my favorite either. Shake Shack has amazing housemade custard, and this place just doesn't live up to great custard. Their macadamia cookie is really yummy, but I'm not a fan of their brownies. Not gooey enough for me. The staff is usually friendly enough and work pretty quickly. Overall, solid spot that'll fill you up and won't disappoint you if you know what to order. I'm dying to try their breakfast - it sounds really good! And their Mexican quinoa chili sounds interesting. Once it gets cold out, I'll try it! read more

I was pretty excited to have a Mexican chain restaurant open inside of Northwestern (I work here and sometimes you just want to grab something quick and easy). The place is located on the second floor of the Feinberg building, and has a pretty open and bright space with a decent amount of tables to sit at. The food here is definitely comparable to Chipotle, with the build your own meal kind of structure. I personally enjoy that everything they have (from meats to salsas) are all very fresh and taste really good. The service here is always quick and friendly, so don't hesitate to ask questions. Now onto the food: Chicken Burrito 3.5/5: the chicken burritos here are pretty good and reeaaallllly filling. I actually have changed to eating the tacos because I feel like I ate way too much when I would have a burrito (I can't throw away delicious food...yes I have a problem). They have a couple selections of chicken: Baja chicken and Asada chicken, and for a little extra chorizo and chicken. I personally like the Baja chicken more as it has a little kick to it compared to the rest. I don't really like the chorizo chicken and think it isn't worth the extra pay. They offer a bunch of fillings for your burrito including rice, beans, 3 different types of salsa, cilantro and onion, pickled onion, tomato, lettuce, cheese, etc. So you really can choose what you want to fill yours with. Honestly I love to fill mine with veggies and always overdo it with the burrito. Chicken tacos 4/5: I personally think the tacos are the best deal. You get three tacos with whatever topping you want to put in it (guacamole is extra). I always load mine with their fresh veggies because they are really crisp and delicious. The one thing that I didn't expect is that they give you a small side of chips with your tacos.... uh heck yeah. Desserts: Caramel Milkshake 4.5/5: This one is definitely my favorite milkshake there. It's really sweet with a strong caramel flavor that is oh so good. The prices for the shakes aren't that costly either, so if you want a cool treat, grab this. Chocolate Milkshake 3.5/5: This was just okay. It wasn't bad but nothing amazing to write about it either. Just your typical chocolate milkshake. Overall this place is a pretty solid restaurant to get something quick and filling. I personally prefer Chipotle more, but they really are on par with each other. If you're in the neighborhood (or hospital) stop by here for some tacos or trearts. read more

The sirloin steak burrito is where it's at! There are plenty of breakfast, vegan and vegetarian options. They seem to have specials on their chalkboard menu like fish tacos. I don't think their prices are too bad to either my burrito is about $8.29 for the burrito. You have a choice of tacos, toast burrito, rice bowl, nachos or crispy quesadillas. I liked the beans and rice with the burrito and mild salsa was tasty. I say check it out I like it. I would totally have it again if I was at the Northwestern building heading to some doctor's appointment and wanted a bite to eat. read more

I placed an online puck up here for lunch, I never seen this place before but there was a special on grubhub so I gave them a try. I had the steak bowl I love all the ingredients in there and it was enough steak in the bowl. You'll miss the place if you dont know where it's at or dont have Google map. It tucked away in the corner of a small street off LaSalle. I'll definitely going back. read more

I eat at Burrito Beach in the NMH good court almost daily I always have the Caldo y Tacos made with cabbage not rice. Happen to visit on a Saturday since I was working when I tell you the young Hispanic lady that waited in me made me feel like I was bothering her with my special order to the point I will NEVER go back not even during the week! read more

Only stopped in for a shake and glad I did! I got a chocolate Oreo custard shake. It was so smooth and thick! They give a nice big straw so the Oreos didn't get stuck! They use hot fudge to turn their vanilla custard into chocolate. read more

This burrito beach is located on the second floor of the hospital building. The prices are pretty comparable to chipotle. The line moves pretty quick. I really like the chips and salsa. There's some seating inside burrito beach but a lot more outside on the second floor. There are a handful of other restaurants on the second floor as well. If you're looking for a quick lunch, second flood of NMH is definitely worth checking out read more

This place is a gem as far as food court restaurants go. The place has a trendy beach vibe and the service has always been PHENOMENAL not to mention their food is very yummy. It's unusual to find such friendly service at a fast food location but all the employees I've encountered here over multiple visits have been so friendly and patient. The burrito bowls are delicious and tastes less salty to me than chipotle. The portion might be a little smaller than chipotle's but the ingredients taste much more fresh and there are more meat options. I also LOVE their custards/frozen yogurt-- the portions are pretty big for the price! read more

1. It was delicious. The fish tacos tasted much healthier and were much more flavorful than you can find at most places in Chicago. 2. The employees are nailing it order after order and keeping a steady clip. Every single person was kind, smiling, and hard-working. I just received customer service that I didn't think was synonymous with a faster food place. There is an excellent hustle here. I'll be back! 3. The music (playlist) has been one excellent song after another. Lou Reed, Smokey Robinson, The Velvet Underground...one great song after another. Great taste in food and music at Burrito Beach! 4. Nice decor with pretty little floral arrangements on each table. This did not feel like a hospital dining option...it was REALLY nice. 5. They also have custard. Enough said. read more

Guys, I'm a woman of not-very-substantial size, and this location's burritos are so small, you'd need two of them to add up to one proper Chipotle burrito. The steak was good, and all the ingredients seemed fresh, but come on. I should not spend $9 on a burrito and be HONGRY shortly thereafter. My bag was so light, I was like WTF, I should go back and be an ass and ask them to put more food in this thing. Wasn't just one employee putting a pittance of food in there either. A guy started it, and a woman finished it, and both were barely laying out the ingredients. I've dropped more rice on my rug than they dropped onto my tortilla. I can't decide if I'll go back since GRK Greek Kitchen and Saigon Sisters are both over here, but if I do, I will shame us all into putting MORE FOOD into the burrito. read more

Burrito beach is a lot like Chipotle. I like that the give you the carb free option of lettuce instead of rice. They also have a taco option. Smoothies and other treats are available here as well. Nice to have another healthy option at NW for food. This is more appreciated when you are staying in a family member room while they are in the hospital. read more

So after a long time of loving chipotle and then starting to not like it all that much I was so sad that my love for the burrito was dying and then came this place. Firstly- the selection- chicken, beef, vegetarian, and even seafood! 2nd- your choice of burrito, taco, nachos, quesadilla... I mean 3. White rice brown rice salad beans 4-SALSA! Only three but all so good!! Great flavor and a wonderful addition 4.5-guac--- still $1+ extra (haha) 5! Incredible! Huge portion great quality and flavor just outstanding! 6. Extras like lettuce, tomato, onions cilantro and a few others I have not tried yet 7. Price point decent! For the amount of food you get I've eaten here two days in a row! If you're pro chipotle you'll be thrilled here just like me. Check it out! read more
