I had a vegetarian burrito, and it wasn't very tasty. The hot salsa gave the burrito some flavor. My husband ordered the shredded chicken burrito and he said that the chicken was pretty good. Considering that my husband doesn't like to eat chicken, it must be tasty. The good thing about this place is the cheap prices since the burritos were less than $5 each. read more

I've been going to Burrito Express for over ten years now (since high school) and it's good, cheap food. I highly recommend the enchilada ranchera combo. The best thing about Burrito Express is the exceptionally friendly service. They know what my "usual" is and are always flexible if I want to make ten changes to the way something is supposed to be made. read more

I love their chicken nachos it's always a go. I haven't really tried anything else but the nachos chicken is so perfect not dry at all.

Whoever your cook was on 1 OCT 2021 at about 7PM is a rock star! My order of enchiladas, a burrito, and french fries was the best!

We lived in the area for 18 years and this place is a huge local favorite, authentic or not. Local opinion is that Tacqueria Las Vegas' food is only comparable to the garbage at Burrito Express. Bottom line, try it yourself and decide whether you agree with the locals or not! read more

At first thought this was good food. Won't be eating here anymore. Found a cockroach in my burrito.

I used to go here every so often for their carne asada fries... But my BF introduced me to their chicken nachos!!!! Normally, I don't really enjoy shredded meats just because of the texture or how dry many places serve the meat... But Burrito Express' chicken nachos consists of super tender shredded chicken, melted cheese, lettuce & sour cream, over a bed of tortilla chips (seasoned with salt which I totally appreciate). Not too pricy and fills you up! Plus, the customer service is always great. read more

Really wanted to try here especially because it is not too far from work. I sort of drove out of the way here because of the early hours. You guys need to update your hours. It says you are open at 7am. You guys are not open!!!!! VERY HUNGRYYYYYYY read more

I haven't been to that place in a longtime! Their super nachoes were really good the last time I went. Taco salad wasn't as good as before because the taco was a little burnt and their burritos were HUGE edit: ok forget my previous review. I don't like this place anymore. They don't really cook their food. It's just microwaved food and I don't know why the hell they have awards as the "best" in Milpitas. read more

Best Mexican food I've had. I always get rice,beans,cheese and fries in my burrito with a side of salsa verde and jalapeños it's AWESOME!!! I eat here almost every day! Super nice people and quick super fire food!! read more

Been coming here for years. Love their chicken taco salad. The owner is really nice. Never disappointed with the food.

Always great customer service and the burritos are awesome! I'm from out of town and this is my go-to place for Mexican food in Milpitas.

They have the best tacos, And are very clean! I will come back again! If you want halal Mexican food you need to go here you can't go wrong!

I LOVE THEIR CHICKEN NACHOS! Yummy! Although it isn't quite authentic Mexican food. I will settle for these ANY DAY of the WEEK! They are so delicious! Especially when they are still hot and the cheese is all melted on top! (: Their burritos aren't half bad either. But I mainly come here for the Nachos. The people working here are usually pretty friendly. They get busy a lot during lunch hours and after school, since it's next to MHS, kid come here for an after school snack and to just hang out. (: read more

I used to go here during HS... Before I knew any better, I thought it was soo bomb... Now I'm thinking to myself, what the hell was I thinkin'??? Their chicken chimichangas are good though... read more

blah! Bean and cheese burrito -- a gut bomb. carne asada burritno -- a greasy gut bomb. salsas - less than freshee. read more

I have been eating here for years. It is a great place to have lunch. The chicken nachos are great. We have had most things over the years and all have been good. The owner is usually working the front. Nits: The place is small but they handle take away with ease. read more

As a local from San Jose and frequent burrito-eater I thought I'd set the record straight for Burrito Express. I've eaten many great burritos in the bay and never have I had such a horrid experience as I did here. I ordered a carne asada burrito and a beef taco. I was starving and couldn't believe what I was eating. Thinking to myself, if you're into Jack in the Box 99 cent tacos then this place is for you. Granted tacos here are probably healthier for you but they taste like fast food. Don't get me wrong, I occasionally crave fast food but this taco was terrible. Next was the burrito, the carne asada was the most terrible tasting carne asada I've ever had. It had no taste, bland in flavor but an aftertaste of beef adobo! Are you kidding me?! I was sadly disappointed and forced myself to stop eating the burrito. Highlights, free chips and salsa, the only bearable item to eat. In summation, bland crappy tasting food. read more

A treasure since high school, I still come by every now and then to order the infamous chicken nachos. They're simple, oily, tasty, and cheap! And their variety of salsas are also great. Their food is consistent, and I showed a picture to my brother and he even says, ahh just like back when I was in high school. read more

As of the time of this writing (6/30/15), this place has 3.5 stars and that is about right. My good friend who lives in Milpitas claimed that this is the best Mexican place in the city. Unfortunately, I beg to differ. We had the taquitos and enchilada plate, and both were just ok. I can make food that meets or exceeds the taste of Burrito Express at home. The food is not terrible, but it is also not great. It's just ok, it definitely needs more flavor. Being latino, I suppose that my bar is higher when it comes to latin restaurants. The interior is very basic. If you need some quick, decent grab and go Mexican food, this is a decent option. read more

Was in the area and needed something to eat. Contemplated between going here or the Filipino restaurant next door. Decided to go with the burrito place and I think I made the wrong choice. At first, I noticed the cheap prices (Most burritos were around $4-something/$5) so I ordered the carne asada burrito. Burrito was decent sized, but didn't really taste like anything. I practically had to drown it in hot sauce to give it some flavor. The burrito was rolled really loose and it fell apart when I was eating it so that annoyed me as well. I found out later on from my friend that Indian people actually own this place. In my opinion, its just a step or two above of Taco Bell. Not the worst I had, but definitley not a place I would go to again. Next time, I'm trying the Filipino restaurant! read more

Hmm, not bad at all. I was eyeing this place ever since I visited Joy Cups next door, and I haven't had a decent burrito since Vallartas in San Diego (if you ever have a chance to go down there, GET A BURRITO from there! And Lolitas too). Anyway, for their regular size burritos, it was at a good size for me. Carne asada was cooked well. The only downside was that they used pinto beans, and I'm a black bean kind of person. I don't know if I can request that, but I'll ask next time! And what is this about carne asada fries?! I'm gonna get on this soon! read more

Just your average burrito restaurant. The meat is cooked a little different as the carne asada burrito is made with a stew type of meat, rather than the dry version we all are familiar with. Still a good burrito. The service was great as they gave us free chips and salsa. They even cleaned up our table when we were done. This place is unique as they offer carne asada fries as a secret menu. Nothing special but it does satisfy the tummy. This is my go to spot after playing soccer in Milpitas. read more

Burrito Express hands down has the best Carne Asada around. Today I had an Asada taco and a chicken quesadilla. Both were absolutely delicious. Shaquille is always super friendly and the restaurant is ALWAYS very clean. I live in Newark and drive here just for the tacos. read more

Got the burrito express with shredded beef. It was alright, the beef was good but all together lacked some flavor

I love the food and the gentleman who always helps so nice and food quality super home made i love it

This place is SO convenient after a good gym workout and hunger strikes... well, maybe it ISN'T such a good thing, but hey, when you're hungry and in the mood for Mexican and you're right next door, it seems like a good option. There are a few reasons why I like this place: 1) Great, cheap chips and all you can eat salsa. Yum. 2) CLEAN restaurant. 3) Friendly, friendly service. It seems like it's always the same counter guy though. No matter what time I'm there or any day of the week... wierd. 4) Did I mention it's next to the 24 hour fitness? I haven't tried the burrito here, but it looked pretty filling. Their tacos are pretty good too (get something other than chicken though). And I hear their taco salad is good. read more

3.5 stars. I've been here about 10 times because it's next door to 24 hour fitness. The staff here is SUPERNICE. Whatever you need they'll get you. I always tip them my spare change. The food isn't bad at all either. It's not amazing, but it's a simple meal burritos - average. Chicken is better than carne asada here, but they are nice enough to do half/half meats here too for the same price. It has a bit too much cheese and bean fillers, but it'll get you full for like $4.50ish (something like that) chille relleno - YUM! it's like cheese and some special sauce on top of a bell pepper .. i'm not even a fan of bell peppers but it's good quesadilla - very solid here, get it with the chicken anything chili verde here is strong as well the chips and salsa is average, but hey it's free. horchata is good here too. Great folks and they do a nice job. read more

I just had their chimichangas a few months ago. Damn, I almost forgot how good they were. I never order anything else, except maybe nachos. They're also huge and packed with all kinds of stuff. The red salsa from the salsa bar is my favorite. Flavorful with just the right amount of heat. The guy behind the counter (owner?) is always chatty and friendly. Haven't had a bad experience yet. read more

Delicious! I'm picky about beans & rice and everything I tried had great flavor. Small spot that I wish I knew about sooner.

Hungry after working out at 24 fitness? this is the place to go, when you want something cheap, fast, and filling. I usually order two soft tacos at 2$ each and its more than enough to fill me up. Their burritoes are also pretty good, very moist and soft. They have fresh salsa, with mild, medium, and spicy. I will be back tonight after my gruesome workout! read more

'You were a kid too.' "Yeah, but not like these guys" Just then... "Hey, lemme have your change" 'Do I know you? I should give you my change?' "Yeah, I want a burrito" I don't know about him, but for some kid to randomly ask someone for their change is pretty ballsy. For myself, I get the namesake, carne asada without the sour cream. Forget the kid. "Dude, I cannot believe you just go around and ask people for money" "Its aight, cuz I'm like that yo" Pathetic. But the burritos are ok. I usually just stick with the burritos. Mostly because its mobile and convenient. Today, though I held off on the sour cream, they also forgot to include the guacamole. It made the burrito a tad dry. I was fixin to get some salsa from the bar (and its usually good), but considering the time of day and the number of little crumb snatchers abound, I wouldn't be suprised if a loogi ended up in one of the pots. "You mean you ain't getting me a burrito?" 'No bitch' We'll leave it at that. read more

Don't come here expecting authentic mexican food, but it still is good food. In fact, they were voted by Milpitas residents for having the best burrito, for about 5 years in a row. I've been coming here for about 7 years now to order their chicken nachos ($5) with extra lettuce (a normal order doesn't have enough greens for me). What I like about the nachos is the store made chips. They're not flimsy tortilla chips from a bag, they are freshly made with a good flavor and salted perfectly, and the portion size is big too. Chicken has a lot of flavor. They have different sauces laid out in containers on ice and I'm a big fan of their pico de gallo. There have been several times I've been there where the owner has offered to get a new batch of pico because the current container was running low. The place is run and owned by a Persian or Indian guy, and hires some students to help out on the register. The owner is really nice and interactive with his customers. However, I do avoid coming here on the weekdays between 3 and 6 due to the large amount of annoying high school boppers hanging around and in the restaurant because it is right behind the the high school. The ambiance is very casual but only seats about 15 people inside. They share a parking lot with the usually crowded 24 hour fitness and the reserved parking spaces for the restaurants (which include joycups and Little Caesars) can be very tight. I believe credit card minimum is $10. read more

My teen took me here one day. Now I'm hooked and the whole family as well. We always get the California "fish" burrito. Staff is very friendly too. read more

Just your good hole in the wall burrito shop. Being a milpitas native, I've been coming here my whole life! I love this place and I love the manager, he knows me by name and always makes me feel welcomed. The food quality is good, not great. I wish they had grilled chicken instead of shredded. Not super spicy or seasoned.... but still fresh and good. I wish some of the other employees had better attitudes. Perk up! Say hi! Welcome people in. Milpitas is a small town and this is one of the last original food places left... make it a pleasurable vibe. If I smile and say thank you for my food and you stare back at me and say nothing... it's kind of rude. read more

I agree with Tulie L. (below) when she said that her taste buds have outgrown this place. I too, thought this place was awesome back in high school, but sadly when I bit into that burrito and taco... I was wondering where the flavor was. I've ordered the nachos before too, but it was bland and the chips got really soggy after a while. Customer service is always really good (very friendly guys) and they make their food fresh and hot. 1 extra star for those! read more

Finally found this place! I came here once with a friend (who drove) and I couldn't find this place until now. The place is small, but the food is big and delicious. the nachos are huge and good. but of course it's a burrito shop so it was absolutely good. This is one of my go to places for burritos in Milpitas. read more

I don't think these guys are getting the credit they deserve! Now I have only been here a couple times, both times loading up on a 1 million calorie chimichanga...but it's good, consistent and staff is SUPER friendly. My chimichanga is always perfectly crisp, loaded with tender meat and goodies. Salsa always taste fresh n spicy and again the staff is great. You feel warm, fuzzy and like you will have to be rolled out of there for under $6! Ya, win. So the next time you're starving, not worried about your diet and want a friendly place to go to fill up for little scratch, I highly recommend this place. read more

I have only gotten their bean and cheese burrito which has always hit the spot. The bean and cheese deliciousness comes: - neither too long or too short - near perfect proportion of beans to cheese - salsa bar allows you to get sauced up Quick, efficient service means you will be in burrito heaven in no time! Burrito Express may not be the most authentic Mexican food experience but this gringa is always down for their bean and cheese burrito! read more

My friends and co-workers and I eat here a lot. The food is good, but not amazing, and is relatively inexpensive. The chimichanga and taco salad are my go-to's. We like to eat at Burrito Express because the food is prepped very quickly, is inexpensive, and has good value (good compromise between price, food quality, and portion size). Both the chimichanga and taco salad are somewhat large portion and can certainly fill you up. I'd rate Burrito Express 4 stars because of the good food and extremely good value. I would have given it 5 star if my food was one level. Not that the food is bad or anything. It is good, just not amazing. This is definitely a good place to go if you are looking for something good, clean, simple to eat without burning a hole in your wallet. read more
