Burritos from heaven This place is fantastic! I don't ever have a need to come to the UT campus area but this place makes it worth it. The gentlemen who runs the shop makes a phenomenal burrito! Super friendly and plenty of seating since the area is a "food court" style area. I got the carne asada burrito on their green tortilla (I think it's made from spinach) in their "picante" version and it was an easy 10/10 so much flavor and worth every bite. I'll definitely be coming back and recommend you all give it a try! read more

Burrito Factory MICROWAVES your burritos in STYROFOAM boxes before serving it to you. We ordered a burrito with cheese. They have a microwave in the back room where they MICROWAVE your burrito -- in a STYROFOAM box. I repeat: this food establishment MICROWAVES the food you eat while that food is sitting in a STYROFOAM box. My box was partly melted with the burrito stuck to it. I am pretty sure you are not supposed to MICROWAVE STYROFOAM because it's likely to cause CANCER. Avoid at all costs. This place is a health hazard and should lose its food license. read more

Service was great. Hard working guy multitasking. The torta was also great. I got the #4 and was very pleased. Good bread and flavorful ingredients. The food hall is on the run down side so the landlord could stand to improve the eating space. But the burrito factory seemed clean and well managed. read more

It's so nice to see how well-loved this place is by others. Jose, the owner, runs it, and he clear he has so much love for his guests. It's been open since 2004! I ordered the steak torta, it was delicious and filling. All of the ingredients were super fresh. And I also got the horchata to drink, it was tasty but definitely for sweet tooths! I was also so surprised by how affordable this menu was. Really great spot for students. read more

Burrito Factory - Steak Torta - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

Great spot near campus for a quick bite to eat. The service was friendly and fast. My burrito and horchata were really delicious but the only point off is because the burrito fell apart on me and was super messy to eat as a result. I guess that's why they gave the fork but I would rather have less plastic waste whenever possible. read more

Affordable, great customer service, delish food. My husband and I were in the area because we were going to see a concert at the bass concert hall. We got there a bit early and we realized we were a little hungry so we started looking around for food. We discovered the little food court where this restaurant is located, and after checking everything out, we decided to buy from them. Their prices are the best out of any other restaurant in the strip. We ended up getting two veggie tacos. I was honestly surprised how full my taco was for the price I paid for it. It was absolutely delicious! It was very filling. The guy cracked a couple of jokes while he was putting together our tacos, really friendly guy. Food tastes super authentic, very hole in the wall place, but I can definitely see myself returning again for delicious Mexican food at good prices! read more

Burrito Factory - a neon sign for burrito factory - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

Good quality Mexican food right here, got the steak burrito "spicy" and the flavor was perfect just hot enough to feel it but still enjoy the steak flavor. They had 3 different tortillas to choose from regular, chipotle and spinach. Chipotle was great and burrito was good value at $12 read more

I picked up food from this place so can't say much to their ambiance and service. It's located within Dobie so I would assume you receive an average experience of dining in a food court. I ordered their mini chicken burrito and loved it! The portion size was generous and all of the ingredients paired so well together. The chicken was juicy, flavorful and all out delicious. I normally feel the need to add sauces on top of burritos but didn't for this one. A great meal and I'll definitely come back for more. read more

Delish pastor and steak taco plate. Steak fajita burrito got good review from the kid. Located inside student housing building above the target store. Took a bit to find it but worth it. The owner runs it and really puts his heart into the food and customer service. Lots of regulars came by and he knew their orders as they walked up. read more

Burrito Factory - Burrito factory - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

I came here to grab a wet burrito after my workout. This place is hidden in the back of the food court and looks unassuming, but is so so delicious. I had looked at all the food pics before and the wet burritos here looked so good. I ordered the wet burrito with rice and beans, and he made it right in front of me, and asked me what toppings I liked. I wanted it spicy so I asked for extra jalapenos. It was also really nice to see all of the meat being cooked. The burrito took less than 10 minutes to make, and the red sauce was spicy and flavorful. I couldn't even finish half of it because it was so filling. I will be back to try their tortas and other dishes. read more

When I got in line I was greeted by Jose I was a regular in my first semester but stopped coming in the current semester. He remembered me and he remembered my order. He got right to work with my torta and made it very quickly. Got my food in less than 4 minutes and got to eat. Burrito factory is my favorite spot on campus to get Mexican food since it's close and priced well. The dining room is a food court and it's pretty clean. read more

This place has a great balance of convenience (proximity to UT campus), good food, and reasonable prices. The service is super fast here, and the chef is always super friendly. It is tucked into the Target food court, but it definitely deserves more recognition for food, convenient meals near campus. read more

Great customer service and great food! The portion sizes are huge and the food is cheap. My personal favorite is the veggie torta with everything on it and with spicy salsa. I also really like the horchata here!! Definitely one of my favorite spots to eat near campus as it's great food for a very reasonable proce and a short walk from campus (right above target) read more

Burrito Factory is the current gem of the Dobie Food Mall. That title used to belong to Vert's Kebabs. Vert's wisely got out of Dobie Mall. Samuel C's prediction is that some day Burrito Factory will do the same. The place is just too good. * * * Burrito Factory gets about four times the business of any other establishment in Dobie Food Court. When I was there, the Nepali and Middle Eastern place were getting no business at all. The bubble tea place was getting some action. Three out of the eight food stalls were empty, unrented or permanently closed. In contrast, there were long lines at Burrito Factory. This is proof there is justice in this world. * * * Burrito Factory sells burritos - so the name is not a total lie. But the house specialty is tortas. Really really really fine tortas. I had one with steak, chorizo and ham with spicy sauce, mexi-veggies, and lots of pico de gallo. The torta was absolutely sensational. Looking around Dobie, lots of the customers were thinking the way I was. There were tortas at a large majority of tables. * * * Dobie Mall in contrast, is going to the bow-wows. They did a wonderful decorating job on the outside, with some classy renaming and a classy arty paint job. They puts walls of very realistic plastic flowers around the main entrance making the door on the campus side really really something to see. But the investment in outside trimmings belies complete neglect and deferred maintenance on the inside. Half of the TV's in the food court don't work. The flushes in the men's room are weak or dysfunctional. One urinal was leaking water (clean water) all over the floor. Tiles were missing on the wall. The Dobie Mall Food Court was always airless and claustrophobic. Over time, none of this has changed. The place is convenient as a utility for the students who live in the skyscraper above. And if you are on the UT main campus, the Dobie mall is a little nearer your next class than is the Drag itself. But otherwise, the place is somewhat repellent. You would never never take an out of town visitor there. * * * So this is why I am guessing that the Burrito Factory will not stay at the Dobie long. The only tenant who has actually stayed in the Food Court for more than ten years is Oma's, the Korean food stall. And frankly, I have no idea how Oma's stays in business. But the Burrito Factory's tortas are an absolute 100% pleasure. Given the weak quality of the food trucks and the other food institutions on the Drag, You can make a good case for closing your eyes and enjoying a fantastic torta in an ugly place. Or if you think about it long enough, maybe you can't. read more

A hidden gem inside Dobie Mall, this place is my go to for burritos around campus. There are so many great places to choose from on the Drag, but this one offers the most authentic Mexican flavor and spice. Fresh ingredients leave you feeling healthy after lunch here, and Burrito Factory has been a go to down the street from McCombs for years. The awesome people here really care about their customers!! read more

Came for dinner on a Thursday night around 6pm, barely a line. The guy behind the counter was really nice and funny -- I asked for no hot sauce and he pretended to be confused, so I made an "X" with my arms. So he was like, "ah ok, 10 spicy!". Needless to say I didn't have hot sauce in my torta. My pastor torta was a good size and had plenty of meat and veggies, which I appreciate. It's not cheap, but it's a solid option at a standard price point. read more

Burrito Factory - Pastor torta - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

This was a super good, mall food court, restaurant. The employees were super friendly and helpful. Getting the food was quick and easy.

Burrito Factory is the best Mexican food option around UT campus. The food is always consistent and delicious and is very authentic. The workers are always so nice, especially the cook. He is so personable and completes the experience. He won't write anything down but he has never gotten my order wrong, it's pretty impressive. I highly recommend this place to both UT students who want some good food near campus, and anyone else in Austin who just wants good Mexican food in general. read more

Burrito Factory serves fresh food made to order. I ordered a chicken torta. My sandwich was good but wasn't particularly flavorful. Also, my sandwich was relatively small for the price. I was disappointed that my food wasn't filling so I didn't leave satisfied. On the positive side, the staff is incredibly friendly and outgoing. Burrito Factory is conveniently located in Dobie Market which is right next to the UT campus. read more

One of the best Mexican Spots downtown. If you haven't came here, you are definitely missing out!! The owner is always super kind, friendly and talkative with everyone that comes into his line. It is clear that kindness and positive energy is placed into all the food her serves. The food here is absolutely amazing I usually get the Chicken Fajita Taco Plate and have never had a bad experience. My tip is to come a bit early if you don't want to wait in line. This place needs more recognition because it definitely top tier!! read more

Time and time again, this is hands down the best Mexican place to grab food around campus. If you're even thinking of going anywhere else on campus in this area, don't. This is the place to grab food. These two brothers are work animals. Moving super quick while they blast music to get food out to hungry customers. Shoutout to these two for doing everything that takes an entire Chipotle line of employees to do (they are the bomb). My favorite is still the suizo burrito. Its definitely a lot more filling and their tortas are the bomb (which is typically what most people order). My favorite meat is the pastor (super sweet and meaty goodness all over your burrito/torta). If the line is long, trust me its worth the wait! read more

My friends always hype up Burrito Factory, but honestly I wasn't expecting much from Dobie food. Luckily, I was pleasantly surprised! I got the steak burrito with a chipotle tortilla and it was so good- a great combination of textures and flavor. I came back to try their al pastor taco and it did not disappoint. Now... if they had an al pastor burrito... it'd be over. Customer service is also great! The guy making my food was funny and so nice. read more

No complaints. Quality burrito served up in a friendly atmosphere. Plenty of options in terms of types and ingredients. I'm kinda feeling sorry for the other vendors at this food court. Why? The factory seems to get as much business as everyone else in the food court combined. read more

WOW. Try burrito factory and all other taco/Mexican places you know will go down a spot. This place is within Dobie, and so I didn't really have any huge expectations on how good it can get. Because of the food court, there are a lot of seating available and so wait time is never a problem We ordered our food quickly, and the staff was not only nice but super friendly and would joke around with us. We ordered tortas and a burrito and the food came quickly. This was my first time having a torta, and based on the price ($5), I thought that it wouldn't be filling. At the end of the meal, I was so full. The torta is a kind of sandwich, filled with the meat of your choice. The bread was toasted, while the pork, cheese, and lettuce was soft. The tomatoes and lettuce kept everything from getting too heavy and was a good balance. I also ordered the mango drink.... and I would pass it. It was a little too watered down and tasted more like papayas than mango. Would definitely come again! read more

Great food great people. Honestly I wish people would learn what customer service is exposed to be from these people! A+

Owner was super friendly and fun! Burritos, I feel, are a bit overpriced but they were pretty hefty nonetheless. Order total ended up being about 11.50 plus tips for one burrito. It was good and lasted me a meal and 1/2 :) read more

Burrito Factory - Grilled Chicken Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

My god. This is the best place to get some authentic Mexican food near campus. I've been a loyal customer for three years now, and they know my order as soon as I step up to the counter: Al Pastor burrito plate on a spinach tortilla with everything on it and super spicy with a Horchata to wash it down. With the burrito, you can get a flour, wheat, chipotle, or spinach tortilla. It comes with Spanish rice, refried beans, your choice of protein, lettuce, tomato, pico de gallo, sour cream, chihuahua cheese, avocado, and spicy or mild salsa. Be warned, the spicy salsa will kick your butt although it's delicious. The plate comes with a side of rice and beans, which are some of the best I've had in Austin. It's a lot of carbs, so I tend to save the rice and beans for another meal. The tortas are also a solid choice if you want to switch it up. The Al Pastor is seasoned beautifully and the steak is also a good choice. The owners are extremely friendly and memorize your order if you come here often. Last semester, I came at least once a week, but I stopped this semester because of the increased workload of school. After a 4 month break from Burrito Factory, I stepped up to the counter and they greeted me like an old friend and remembered what I liked. That's the definition of customer service. read more

Six stars? When I took my daughter for a campus tour, I found this spot on Yelp. I was a bit worried it may be another Chipotle, but I was happily surprised when we strolled up. This ain't your trendy, gringo joint. The guys behind the counter, and the customers sandwiched around us were definitely authentic and knew their stuff. I got torta al pastor and the guy making it was impressed that I was taking it like a true Mexican. Pile on the heat and get out of my way. My daughter got a chicken burrito and loved it. We will be back! Great spot!! read more

Burrito Factory is an unassuming food court taco shop but man is it great. I've been coming here for years and the quality and service have stayed awesome all this time. It's also one of the few places you can get tortas in the area. You can choose between tortas, burritos, tacos, or tostadas, then you walk through the line subway-style picking out what you'd like. The line goes quickly though because if you come back even two times, the friendly staff will remember your preferences. Are you as never-cilantro person? They will remember and keep the green away from you. As you can see from my photo, I am definitely a cilantro person. This is a tostada, $4 total, with refried beans, lettuce, sour cream, avocado, pico, extra tomatoes, cilantro, and hot salsa. The hot salsa is legitimately hot, so don't get it if you are just messing around! read more

Burrito Factory - veggie tostada - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

Yuuuum! You get so much food for the price! Always fresh, always hot off the iron, and always tasty! I get the burritos and mini burritos when I visit. The red sauce is spicy. (I always order the red sauce.) The green sauce is not spicy. There's also horchata, mango, and other aguas frescas. It's a nice atmosphere and the staff is QUICK! There may be a short line when compared to other shops in the mall, but it goes by quickly. read more

The owner works very hard to prepare each meal. He's quick and has great energy. Everyone is so kind, and the food is sooo good. Highly recommend the enchilada plate. The spicy sauce is SPICY. I always leave with a smile. 10/10 place. read more

Burrito Factory is one of my go-tos when I'm craving comfort foods! I usually get the steak burrito here and ask for the majority of the toppings. The burritos are generously portioned and will leave you in a huge food coma after. It's definitely a heavier option compared to Chipotle, but their burritos are so good! The meat is always well-seasoned and I believe guac does not cost extra - which is always a pro. The workers are always cheery and great conversationalists. I'd definitely recommend this place for convenient and delicious Mexican food! read more

A hidden gem inside Dobie. This place does not deserve to be judged by the reputation dobie food court holds. College student don't realize that there's a great Tex-mex place basically right on campus! I love this place because they're so fast, even when lines are long. Their portions are decent; I was stuffed after my meal. I recommend the Pastor, which is a mix of pork and beef. The suizo option is when they pour a sauce over the burrito, which I liked, but I prefer the burrito without the soggy tortilla. Their rice and beans will make you happy :) PS- They have their own little private seating area, so you don't have to sit out in the middle of the food court. read more

Burrito Factory - Pastor (park and beef) Suizo - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

Good place near campus! I have eaten the tortas, tacos and burritos. The meat (chicken, barbacoa, and the pastor) are all solid. It's very tasty, and not much you can say about it. As for the ordering experience, you'll be treated to a very excited cook who likes to play jokes on you and makes your ordering experience fun and not monotonous (but still gets your order right!) read more

Like a lot of what people here have already said, this is a hidden treasure in Dobie. The owners are really nice, pile your burrito high and give it to you pretty fast too. It's a lot better than chipotle, and a lot more options too. Four tortilla options and I chose spinach with al pastor pork. That pork is incredibly flavorful, some of the best I've had in a very long time. The burrito isn't overly huge but it will definitely fill you up for $5. They also have tortas, which I want to try, and for the more adventurous, they also have lingua, or tongue. I also got a cup of horchata and it was pretty good, but could have been a bit sweeter. The food here definitely feels authentic, although I don't know what authentic really means nowadays. It's a shame that its rarely open when i pass by, but when it is, I'll be sure to be back. read more
