we typically really enjoy the food we get here. Sadly our food on 19 March 2026 didn't meet our expectations. The chicken in the quesadillas was extremely dry and cut too large. There was only a tiny amount of cheese on both the quesadillas and the burrito. Unfortunately, we did not enjoy our meal on this occasion. read more

Hands down the best burrito I have had in the Hampton roads area. Service was excellent and prompt and has a socal taco shop style ambiance. I will be returning soon to try their other burritos. read more

Staff is always friendly and the food is always delicious, the burritos are HEAVYYY!!! read more

Burrito Perdido - Carne asada burrito with a side of salsa verde - Mexican Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Let me tell you, Burrito Perdido did not show up to play when they pulled up to my school in their food truck. The lunch arrived quickly, tasted much more real than I had anticipated, and was served hot. Everything I tried was good overall, and there was flavor in every bite. The employees? Extremely warm and inviting, which enhanced the experience. Furthermore, the restaurant itself is hidden within a gas station! This place is a sleeper hit, so don't be fooled by that. I will undoubtedly visit the entire site in the near future. Don't pass up Burrito Perdido if you're in the Chesapeake and yearn for authentic Mexican cuisine. read more

My absolute FAVE! They never miss the mark- such a hidden gem in Chesapeake. You would never guess they are as good as they are- but PLEASE give them a try. You will not be disappointed. Highly recommend their steak burrito with all of the fixings- and their hot sauce! It is extremely spicy, but burns so good. I will never stop coming here. read more

Very clean interior located next to a gas station. Ample parking on the far right of the building. The burritos are made fresh and they have lots of great vegetarian options and a good selection of side for your chips. Fountain and bottle drinks. Generous hearty print portions with food music inside. I love the guacamole and pico! So fresh tasting! read more

Waste of money and not authentic at all. We recently moved to the neighborhood and were excited to try Burrito Perdido, as it came highly recommended. My husband brought home a giant steak burrito for us to share, but unfortunately, it was a huge disappointment. Every bite I took was filled with inedible cartilage pieces, and at one point, I even bit into a piece with an artery, which was beyond unappetizing. After five bites, I had to stop eating altogether as every bite I had to spit out..... I called the restaurant to ask about the cut of meat used, and while the person I spoke with wasn't sure, they did acknowledge that what I described didn't sound normal and suggested trying the chicken burrito instead. Honestly, the experience really grossed me out, and I'm so disappointed because we were looking forward to making this a go-to spot. read more

Got the Cali burrito and it was soooo good!! We got carry out, but the place seemed nice and laidback. I will definitely be ordering from here again at some point! The burrito was massive!!! Ordered the biggest size for multiple meals. read more

Burrito Perdido - Giant California Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

We recently had dinner at Burrito Perdido located on Cedar Road in the heart of Chesapeake. This is a funky joint that was built in place of a former Gas Station, but don't let the outside fool you, they are cranking out some serious flavor in their amazing food. read more

One of my favorite local places to stop in and grab something to go! I love their chimichangas (pork is my fav) and their homemade green hot sauce is the BEST! They need to bottle that stuff! read more

Just updating my review here...it's been a long while since we've been here in store. Hubs and I decided for some take out last night, hubby ordered a steak burrito, it was huuuuuge! I ordered a chicken burrito bowl. I've been wanting to try their bowls since I've been seeing it's picture on social for weeks. I asked the young man what all comes in the bowl, I asked if he could put mixed greens instead of rice in the bowl and he said yes. Unfortunately I didn't get any. The bowl had beans, cheese, chicken, guacamole, and pico de gallo. No worries. It was still delicious! It was actually more than I thought. Hubby loved his burrito. We also ordered chips and salsa. I forgot how much we love their daily made salsa. So happy this place still exists and is right around the corner from us! Still a happy fan of Burrito Perdido! read more

Food was quick, prices are reasonable and the place is quite popular. However the food was average. Better than taco bell in some aspects.

I have experienced the same as another review, my California burrito was mostly cartilage as well. The other reviewer said she called the restaurant and they mentioned it didn't sound normal, but seems to be they are charging a good price, but not using good neat, at least for the steak. read more

Love this place! It's attached to a gas station but don't let that fool you! Everything tastes fresh! Any burrito can be made into a bowl! I highly recommend asking for their got sauce if you like spicy! They have parking available. Dine in and carryout options. The inside is a little small so try to go when it's not lunch/dinner rush if you're wanting to eat inside. read more

Burrito Perdido - The inside - Mexican Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Good Food. Good Service Good Price good selection of products.. very clean and pleasant employees. Good Atmosphere good parking

Finally get a chance to try this place. It's next to a gas station. I tried the half chicken and half steak and it was delicious, very close to the San Diego one. They use good ingredients and flavor was spot on. I would give this place a 4.5/5 stars. I would come back again read more

I failed to mention my son-in-law is from Northern California and says this is the best California burrito he's had outside of California.

I placed my order online for pickup. It was ready in a timely manner. The portion were huge and large enough to feed 2 people. The food tasted amazing!! Definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

We thought all Mexican places were done - this place has amazing and fresh food. It is the hidden gem in Chesapeake. Service was stellar but the food was simply outstanding. Ok - it's in a gas station - that was our thought - we read reviews and said let's try it. We are so glad we did - outstanding and thank you. Pork, Steak and California burritos, chicken, spinach, mushroom Quesadilla. Salsa, queso, etc. All amazing. Highly recommend. read more

I really wanted to love this place. It's easily been 5+ years since I last visited. I remembered not being a fan before, but I wanted to give it another try. I asked the gal taking my order how big the tacos were. She made them seem an average size, so I ordered two. Come to find out, they're excessively large and messy to eat. I ordered one chicken and one steak, both without beans. They felt a bit like a soggy, unwrapped burrito and literally fell apart each time I'd try to take a bite. I didn't really like how the cheese was melted into the tortilla instead of fresh and shredded on top. Both meats were fatty and not very flavorful. I really enjoyed the green hot sauce as well as the salsa for the chips. I also appreciated that these were free with Yelp check-in. The staff were all friendly and I know the owners are fantastic as well. They are very community-oriented and I love that about this place. I wanted to like my meal here, but I just don't think it's the spot for me. I prefer a more authentic taco. read more

Burrito Perdido - Chicken taco & steak taco - Mexican Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

***GAS STATION EATS ALERT*** NOTE: Based on a take out experience. Would you believe that I have passed Burrito Perdido (BP) a thousand times and never knew it?! It's next to the Aldi I normally shop at. Their sign has faded over the years and the front door is tucked underneath Cedar Mart, their neighbor's, awning. It's located at the Sunoco gas station, so the gas pumps make it even harder to see from the road if you have tunnel vision while driving. First impression? So many things to LOVE about this place! - Vibe - Fast casual dining. What did you expect? It's at a gas station, so no waiter service with a tuxedo, but it's still delightful! Decor is a mix of portraits of historical figures and movies/celebs. Some of the furniture looks weathered from the last few years (but don't we all from this ongoing pandemic), but it adds to that Gas Station eats charm. Counter service with self serve drink station and mix of booth seats and tables & chairs. - TLC - The two girl team at the service counter were fantastic! I let them know it was my first time and they were so helpful with all my questions. They made recommendations and they even let me in on a secret, but more on that later. Read on... - Noms - Burritos are usually my husband's thing and I couldn't decide between the traditional burrito wrapped in a tortilla or a Burrito Bowl so, when in doubt, choose both LOL. Regular Half + Half (you pick two: I chose Steak and Roasted Veg) Burrito Bowl - I initially thought this was the "Giant" size, but no, it's the regular so I'm afraid to imagine what the Giant looks like. The steak is cut into small cubed pieces. The Roasted veg is great, cut into large chunks instead of strips (peppers, zucchini, onions). The bowl comes with beans, rice, lettuce, their homemade salsa, mozzarella and I added guac for $1 (that's incredible!). I'm still eating from it and it's almost dinner time. Round 2 coming up! Regular Half + Half (you pick two: I chose Roasted Pork and Roasted Veg) Burrito - this thing was so heavy, it made a dent on the lid of my burrito bowl haha. It is also bigger than my hand, see pic. FYI, "roasted" pork is a pulled pork, not pieces, in case you were wondering, because I did. These details are important right? Extra bonus points: - Check in on their Yelp page and they give you FREE chips and salsa (and this is no joke of a dipping sauce size, this is legit, homemade, fresh salsa packed in a pretty good size, I would say small soup size, container. SOOOOO GOOOD! Whole paper bag full of chips. - All prices indicated on menu include the 11.5% (WTF Virginia?!) sales tax. Score! This makes for easy calculating for this math genius (ahem...cough cough). So if you consider the steep tax rate, the prices are amazing for the amount of food you're getting! - Ok, come closer. This is the secret. so let's keep in between us, shall we? She said that if the portions are too much, you can order "mini" items. I was wondering about that since they mention "mini" items under the Kids Sunday special. She said this is a secret menu item thing, not really advertised, but you can see the difference in size, for example, the burrito sizes (see pic attached). Honestly though, for the price, just get the regular or Giant and you can eat from it for at least 2 meals! - Kids - 12 yo and under eat free on Sunday! And like I mentioned, the Kids menu is any item in "mini" size. - Lots of vegetarian options with vegan cheese or vegan sour cream options - Other observations - - I noticed a "Drive Thru" sign where I parked, not sure if it was for BP or for Cedar Mart so I'll have to inquire the next time I go. If it is theirs, how convenient! - They have a food truck and I think that's actually how they started! They seem to make appearances all around the 757, especially at local breweries. I've seem pics of breakfast burritos so look out for those! - They have a daily special that they seem to announce on FB. Today, it was Chicken and Rice for $10 (again, cheap!) -They have a sign on top of their service counter about fresh ingredients and not owning a can opener and I believe it! Overall, I love their straightforward menu, really easy to understand and easy to make decisions. They have a handful of different dishes will all the same choices of protein or veg, so just pick the kind you want, same ingredients, just different form. For our plant based diet friends, looks like anything can be made vegetarian/vegan friendly and if you consider that their prices have taxes included, it's a sweet deal and generous portions to boot! Stay safe, Friends! read more

Er no. I went to Burrito Perdido twice.. once about a year or so ago, and thought the food was just meh. And I thought, maybe they had an off day, so I tried it again today. I'm all about second chances. So, I ordered the steak burrito and chicken chimichanga. Verdict? Yes, the burritos are big. And yes, they are fresh. However, if you like your Mexican food bland and you are allergic to seasoning, this is the place for you! Me? I like flavor in my food. read more

I visited this place after having not visited in some time. I got the steak bowl. While it used to be amazing, the steak was tougher than any steak I have had in my 53 years on this planet. Awful. Has this place transferred hands from the original owner? It's that different. Nasty. read more

Burrito Perdido - Burnt steak. Awful. Complete waste of $15.00. - Mexican Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

This girl gave horrible service and even pushed me when asking for a drink! Also I ordered a steak burrito with no beans AND THERE WERE BEANS!!!! I hate beans read more

The location, can be what's off putting. It's in a gas station lot and building attached the the service station. Please, do not let this be the reason you pass it by...it's really good food, super clean inside and great people. Seating at 15+ tables. Food is good, flavorful and pretty fast. They have a food truck that will come to events! read more

Still mediocre, so happy to be moving back to Houston. Avoid the tacos they are this tasteless hot mess that some genius decided to put beans in, uggg. Have tried so many times to like this place since it's close and has all the trappings of a great spot, but it's just categorically bad texmex....... The good reviews must be friends of the owner or from Iowa, I can't just can't figure it out. Oh well maybe you will like it, go Hawkeyes ! read more

I really wanted a burrito. They looked massive and well filled but rice and beans and tortillas don't fit on my program so I went to the salad. Which was excellent! Big bowl of romaine (hooray, not just iceberg!) stacked with small pieces of beef, guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese and a slightly spicy salsa. Delicious and very filling for lunch today. And totally on my keto diet. Woot! [Review 10837 overall, 607 of 2019.] read more

At first glance it is a real diamond in the rough, but you can tell the money is spent on the equipment and employees. The quality of service provided at this establishment is really something else. The frontline staff are quite attentive to the customers needs and wants. The only concern was the floors...a bit sticky over by the drinks but it was the lunch rush and this team was really on point with their customer service. High quality service, great food, served just how I asked and with a smile. I'll be returning with a group next time read more

Their food truck came to our school, and I am so happy they did! My tacos were delicious! My coworker loves their burritos! Staff were very friendly and engaging! Check them out! read more

Food is amazing. Service is fast but ambiance lacks. We are regulars and we love this place.

I'm originall from San Diego and this place is just like the taco shops back at home. I usually get the California burrito there and I have to say it may not be 100% like it but it's pretty damn close. Best believe I'll be coming back. lol read more

Burrito Perdido - California Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Great food, above average portion sizes, and friendly service in their re-opened order counter with seating, not to mention matured post-covid processes resulted in a splendid "take-2" visit. Called in the order, ready when requested. $90 for 7 things + tax +tip. Not bad for what we enjoyed. My half chicken and half steak salad was delicious, and I'm not one to rave over a salad. Protein was moist, tender, flavorful, and cut into easy to eat bites. Greens were fresh and complimentary. Guys I ordered for also raved over their choice meals for the same reason, quality and portion size. Don't forget to try their homemade hot sauce (it's yellow but very flavorful). read more

FINALLY, you can get that authentic Californian taste in Virginia! When I tell you that this is definitely a hidden GEM, SHEESH!!!!! The guacamole was , the pico was fresh, just everything about the food was absolutely phenomenal!!!!! 10 out of 10!!!! Definitely going back because this is now my favorite spot read more

I really wanted to like this place but the food just did not do it for me. If your looking for authentic Mexican food this is not it. The food is bland and rice was mush. The chicken was left over rotisserie chicken with no flavor. If you want a burrito that has flavor I recommend you skip the gas station faus burritos and check out La Hacienda, the one at 2146 South Military Highway. There you will be transported to a way better experience for the same price, but double the food. I mean Perdido serves rectangle tacos, what the hell is that? How do you even eat that? Yeah it is what you see an over priced gas station flavorless faus burrito stop. Good luck. read more

Burrito Perdido - Rectangle taco. - Mexican Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

I was born and raised in California. I've had my fair share of amazing Hispanic food. Burrito Perdido tasted like home. I had been looking everywhere for a monster burrito and this place didn't disappoint. They came to my son's carnival, and their food truck was worth every penny. I highly recommend! I also walked into the restaurant to do takeout, and was pleased. The meal I ordered was worth it. read more

Food was ok but the steak in my burrito was very fatty. I would go again in another year to give them a try. They have deff changed under new leadership. They are more focused on cost saving than quality. I hope they try to get better quality meat in the future. Inside was clean and comfortable. read more

This place is amazing, the location is deceiving on the outside but the inside is really nice and very clean. We ordered a few burrito bowls which all came out perfect. The pork was amazing, it was juicy and cooked perfectly. The lady taking our order told us that everything comes in fresh and is made in house, even the salsas. They don't even have a freezer because all the meats are delivered fresh. I highly recommend this spot! read more

Burrito Perdido - Mexican Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Very basic options - burritos are freshly made and very mild, so if you want a kick, be sure to ask for their hot sauce. We got a giant carnitas to split between 2 adults and a regular for my kids to share - it was plenty to eat. We also did the Yelp check in to get the free chips and salsa! The salsa was truly just chopped up tomatoes - wish they would add cilantro, onions, jalapenos - or even a dash of their green hot sauce. read more
