There's not much to say about this place. There's a reason why it's so popular and an Austin classic. Cabo bob's is my favorite bowl place in Austin. First off, the only downside is how busy it gets but that's not on them at all. The staff are so efficient and quick so you know they're trying as hard as they can. I always get a crispy fish bowl with the fixins. They always pack the bowls with heaps of meat and that makes them top-tier in my book. The fish is always so crispy and pairs so well with their jalapeno crema. Not to mention the queso which is so thick how I like it. Their chips are always very thick with a strong crunch which I enjoy. A top-tier spot and perfect for any day. read more

Cabo Bob's Burritos - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

I used to love coming here due to the value and proximity to campus, but after my most recent visit, I'm left feeling disappointed. I went to celebrate with a group of friends after finals, and I was last in our group to order. We all had ordered burritos, so there was nothing out of the ordinary there as I always get the #4 fish burrito. My friends all had finished checking out and received their food, but once I paid, I was told to wait to the side. I proceeded to stare at my food sitting *already made and paid for* for at least 15 minutes while a bunch of takeout orders proceeded to get serviced. At around 10 minutes I asked if my food was ready, and I was told to keep waiting. I was eventually handed my food that had been sitting there, receiving a cold burrito and an empty "sorry" with no explanation as to why it was such a burden to hand me my food. My entire group had finished eating by the time I got my food. Won't be coming back. read more

I have never regretted a visit to Cabo Bob's. There can be a bit of a wait at peak times, especially the lunch hour, but the line does keep moving if you can be patient. They're pressing the tortillas right there in front of you, so of course it's gonna take a minute. It's worth it for the quality at a great price, which makes it one of the best value meals in Austin. If you stick with the veggie options, you can get out of there with a huge, fresh, flavorful bowlful for under $10. The chips are honestly my favorite, bar none, and they're just $1 purchased solo. Use the, to scoop up your bowl like deconstructed nachos and it's absolutely a steal. read more

Cabo Bob's is a good place to go for a bite to eat. Amazing options. Place an order for catering. Great options for catering an event. Prices are reasonable. When placing the order for the event, the staff was very helpful. Delivery was on time. Worth checking out if you are in need of a meal for an event. read more

Love this place. Great food and staff. Sitting on the patio is the way to go. I'm keeping this short, too many people already come here!

I placed an online order that was supposed to be ready at a specific time, but it wasn't available until about 15 minutes later. When I arrived, the pickup area was chaotic with at least 10 other people waiting, which already made the experience frustrating. I tried to overlook that, assuming the food would make up for the delay but it didn't. Both kids meals were extremely disappointing. They were poorly portioned (literally only a few beans) and the burritos were much smaller than usual, with barely any filling. It's honestly amazing how small the burritos were and that they couldn't even manage to wrap them properly. I understand kids meals aren't meant to be large, but I've ordered this exact item many times before and it's always been satisfying--this time it was noticeably skimped. To make matters worse, by the time I got home and realized how bad it was, the restaurant had already closed, so I couldn't go back to have it fixed. I don't usually eat out and had been looking forward to this as a treat, which made the experience even more disappointing. I hope this was just an off night, but the quality and portions were far below what I've come to expect. read more

10/10. I loved the tacos with the cream I just love crema on tacos! Each taco had its own flavor and you can add your choice of toppings. The green tortilla was my fav! I'd recommend that one if you're going for just one. Parking lot can get packed! Spoke to staff and they were very friendly. But, there is street parking available. Also apparently it's slower Monday-Thursday. Friday and Saturday are the busiest and Sundays starts to slow back down. It's in West Campus so expect a lot of uni students going for late night bites. I also recommend dining outside, it's under roof and fans are outside. read more

For a quick bite, this place exceeded my expectations! I was looking for a good Baja style fish taco and this place delivered. We got lucky because the fish was fresh out of the fryer and so crispy. We sat outside with our dog and it was clean and relaxing space. The service was good and food got our very quick. The queso isn't anything special but the homemade chips were delicious. I will definitely be back next time a craving hits for fish tacos. read more

Didn't get a picture cause I was too hungry haha. But this place is popular for a reason! Super yummy fresh tortillas, good meat selection and add-ons, huge portions, and super great prices! They are super efficient so the line goes quick! There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and a good-sized parking lot! If you're looking for food near campus, this is the place! read more

This spot was PACKED! They did a really nice job keeping the line moving. This location is close to campus so there's lots of students. There is indoor and shaded outdoor seating. The vibes are super fun vw can/surfer esque. In concept this is very similar to chipotle but so much better in delivery! You can get tacos, burritos, bowls, salads and nachos. You can build your own or order off 10 pre built options. It's very loud so it's nice to do the pre built options. They make all the tortillas fresh and in front you which is super fun. The burritos are HUGE! For chips and salsa you get a choice or red or green salsa. I ordered the #10 burrito (veggies) and loved it. The red salsa was delicious (tasted like medium spice) and the chips are a thicker denser flour style which I really liked! They are not a GF facility but do have GF tortillas and chips if you're intolerant but not allergic. read more

Cabo Bob's or Babo Cob's? Heh, in my culture, the word "Babo" means dimwitted fool! So the question of the hour: was this burrito Cabo or Babo?!? Well, first off, I ordered a burrito but if you look at the picture attached below, it looks like a loaf of bread! EGAD! I thought they swindled me into ordering a loaf of bread! Fortunately, it was just the outer exterior of the flavorlicious cilantro and tomatillo tortilla! What a blast! My friend and I were having a competition of who can finish the burrito in the least amount of bites. I finished the burrito in 10 bites, triumphantly defeating my friend who took 10.5-11 bites, but my sore loser fibbing friend (Caleb) kept claiming it was 10.5 bites so I had to teach him a lesson on what happens to liars/haters/babos. (I started making gagging noises while he was eating so he started gagging, but then his gagging made me nauseous and so I started actually gagging and then it started a positive feedback loop of the two of us gagging at each other). Burrito was alright, but it was a tad bit lacking in flavor. My Babo friend Caleb was yapping about some "I wish Cabo would make a Dallas location" (we were at the Austin location) but honestly, they can stay in Austin!!! (Jk jk come to Dallas pwease!) 4 stars! read more

Cabo Bobs is 100000% the place to go for fresh fajita bowls or homemade sweet tea. The atmosphere feels authentic and fresh to be around. Amazing patio area and great view of the austin traffic ... very cool!

First time I've had Cabo Bob but I've heard people from Austin and Houston raving about how good and big the burritos are. I decided to check it out when I visited to Austin. I ordered the chicken burrito for pick-up because I heard it gets pretty busy during the dinner rush hour. I made the right decision and recommend pick-up order if you don't want to wait on the weekend during rush hours. The line went out the door when I got there around 6pm. The burrito was massive and could be considered 2 serving but it tasted very good for $11! Would recommend if you're in the area and looking for a quick, cheap meal. read more

I love Cabo Bob's so much!! Definitely not my first time here but it was my first time at this location so I figured I'd leave a review. Every Cabo Bob's I have been to is super consistent and so fresh. I would pick this over Chipotle any day with their fresh homemade tortillas and amazing ingredients. I made a chicken rice bowl this time but you seriously can't go wrong ordering anything here. Service is always fantastic with nice employees and this location is super cute with great outdoor seating and parking! read more

One of my weekly go tos! Great price for an amazing burrito, and they make the tortilla in front of you! I love the fish and steak best but you can't go wrong with any of it. Only downside can be a long line during peak hours and they don't sell any alcohol. Great casual eatery. read more

Cabo Bob's is a good staple restaurant for students! It tastes great, quantity is huge, and it's pretty cheap. I forgot to take a photo of my burrito, but it was ginormous - it was 2 meals for me. The shredded pork, grilled chicken, and crispy fish are delicious choices of protein, and you can choose between 2 types of tortillas. The line can be really long, especially during the weekends, but if you're able to go during a weekday, it's really delicious! There's a lot of seating, inside and out, but it can be loud, especially if it's busy. read more

A coworker insisted Cabo Bob's was better than Chipotle, so I finally gave it a try. The portion was good, but the chicken has a microwave taste, and the worst part is I almost ate a produce sticker! I'm so grossed out. read more

I really wanted to keep giving this location a shot, but I just can't anymore. The whole experience is consistently chaotic, and while I can see the manager running around trying to hold things together, it's just not translating into better service or food quality. I placed an online order (because walking into this place is pure mayhem--crowds everywhere, people shouting orders, confusion at the counter), and I got a text saying it was ready. I know better by now, so I waited a few minutes before starting my 10-minute walk over. By the time I arrived, the line was out the door. I politely made my way through to pick up my "ready" order... only to find it wasn't actually ready at all. I stood there awkwardly trying to catch someone's attention--several staff members made eye contact but just looked away. No one acknowledged me. Eventually, the manager walked by and, in a clearly frustrated tone, muttered, "You'll get a text when it's ready." I responded, "I got one--almost 20 minutes ago." He looked at me and just kept walking. Nearly 30 minutes after that original text, someone finally asked for the name on my order and tossed a bag on the counter --no greeting, no apology. I mentioned that I also had a drink, and a child's cup was handed to me without a lid. That was it. The food? Greasy. Sloppy. And honestly, not worth the hassle or the attitude. I get that they're busy and close to campus, but being busy isn't an excuse for consistently poor service and disorganized operations. There are plenty of other places where I can spend my money and feel like a customer, not an inconvenience. I'm officially done with this location. read more

Cabo Bobs is a UT classic and safe to stay I've been sleeping on it. After making a long trek in the cold and rain, we arrived on a Saturday night and the line ran outside the door. Thankfully it moved fast. Except fast dining for ambiance- clean but casual. I made my own bowl and got the crispy fish as my protein. Absolutely loved it! Everything was a powerful explosion of flavors and went down easy. I'd definitely recommend their mango pico and chipotle crema. read more

So so good. The line was out the door on a saturday noon time but the line moved quick and we were ordering within 25 minutes. This is my kind of place, delicious food, great fun chill vibe, amazing value with great food for the price. The burritos bowls were so delicious, fresh ingredients and just a great experience. It was just a *fun* atmosphere here on a sunny weekend day. I also liked the drink selection, although I wish they had regular sweet tea as well, but no big deal. Everything was so tasty, and plenty of leftovers were such a bonus. I LOVE CABO BOBS read more

The good: It's my favorite place to go on campus for a good cheap hearty meal. Burritos are massive and taste delicious and fresh for only like 8-10 bucks. You could even split it into two meals. The bad: everyone and their mom is here especially during lunch and in the evenings. Really long lines. Also when you come at like 8:30pm you start to notice that this place gets really dirty with how many people that come here. Meh: kind of a ways away from campus but the walk is always nice. read more

Joshua has the worst attitude. He needs an adjustment. So petty and rude to my face. Food good though.

I've been one Cabo Bob's and I love it!! I come here all the time and everything is so good! The steak & chicken burrito is great, the ingredients taste fresh! It's a better chipotle and I LOVE it!!! The only downside tot his location is that it gets super busy around rush hour with the line out of the door. But it's worth it every time I go!! read more

For the $10 price and size of burrito this spot was worth a try. Tortilla was very flavorful, however I'm not sure if it's bc we went close to closing but ordered the brisket and they barely put any meat in the burrito so it was mainly just sour cream and rice the whole time. read more

Horrible. Has gone extremely downhill. Ordered online and they must have flipped instructions: less beans when i asked for double and more rice when i asked for less. The rice wasn't cooked all of the way and still grainy and unflavored. The chicken is heavily salted. And of course, the burrito portion feels quite small. It lacked complete flavor -- something you can get from cooked your own food at home with a seasoning packet. Won't be coming back. Also, ordered double chicken and washed my money... read more

I love this place. Just moved to Austin and this is now my favorite place for a quick bite. Their tortillas ads made to order, so many options, similar to chipotle but so much better quality. The service is always quick and friendly and the restaurant is decorated well. They also serve local soda which is amazing and the price is very reasonable. read more

I tried this for the first time today! It was awesome, HUGE portions and great prices! All the staff was very friendly & helpful when I asked what they recommend. They also have the option available to point to what you want if you don't want to or can't speak! The restaurant overall was super cool, had lots of space for seating and pretty colorful! read more

I love this place. If im ever getting food out it is one of my top choices. The food is really good, and they have plaques on the window between you and the food with labels so you can point at the name of what you want to order instead of yelling it, since sometimes the environment can get noisy. I also like the colors and layout of the restaurant and the shirts that they have. I just tried it for the first time in the Summer and since then ive been maybe 3 other times (over the course of like 9 months). I would definitely recommend! read more

Brought one of my coworkers with me for lunch that had not been here. I've eaten here a few times it's always good always fresh can't go wrong brought him to experience and he loved it. He will definitely be back. Location was clean. Everything was moving quickly. Always a pretty steady, solid customer service experience and product is always fresh. read more

I tell literally everyone I know visiting Austin to try Cabo Bob's at least once in their life. It's the infinitely better tasting version of Chipotle, plus it's cheaper and with bigger portions. Their chips and queso are my absolute favorite; my tip is to dip the chips into your queso, and let the excess fall onto your burrito--it's a game changer. I love the different tortilla flavors that they have, and that you can mix flavors too. Their ordering system makes the most sense too because there are ingredient labels that you can point to rather than having to shout over the noise to the workers. Everything always runs smooth in here, even during lunch and dinner rushes. Tables are always clean and utensils are always stocked. Cannot recommend this place enough! read more

As a an annual visitor to ATX, visiting this establishment is a must! Why you might ask? Unlike their counterparts, Cabo Bob's offer a wider range of flavors in terms of building out your taco,salad, or burrito. Your taste profile can expand from Mexican to Caribbean flavors. Adding the tangy sauce of bbq to the mix, you have a wide spectrum of choices on how your meal will be served. Having the Cumcumber mango salsa in addition to the traditional salsa is awesome. With the creama paired with the spicy tangy bbq sauce further level up the taste buds. I also like the unique sitting options for the patrons. Internal decor further removes guest from their daily norm. It's decorated with a beach, Caribbean vibe that the family enjoys. Service was a bit tricky though. There were slight communication issues since they barely spoke English. Nether-less, we made it to the finish line and got our specific orders. Fish tacos here is amazing btw. I would recommend it. Can't wait to visit again. :) read more

I've had Cabo Bob's for catering and liked it, but never considered going there for lunch until a colleague convinced me to go, calling it "surprisingly good," citing the fresh tortillas and overall quality. After looking at the menu online and noticing it was really affordable, I headed there for lunch. I remembered having an average size burrito from a catered event, but what you get here as regular sized burrito is insane. The burrito was the size of my head and I brought half home. I wasn't expecting Texas sized portions from a California place, but here we are. They have more overall options (without markup) than Chipotle, like grilled poblano, onions, and squash, all of which were delicious, brown rice, and three kinds of beans. Veggie is a lesser-priced option. It was also less salty than Chipotle, which is likely the closest competitor. The chips are thick style, and good, although I wasn't wild about the green salsa. (It was California hot, not Texas hot.) I also thought the chipotle crema with the burrito was forgettable, but I'll try a different one next time. Drinks aren't crazy marked up, and include cane sugar soda and lemonade, unsweet tea, and sweet mint tea, REAL brewed tea! Kids meals are $6 and include chips and queso. Very friendly and attentive staff. read more

Chipotle...but a little different, maybe a little better? Once difference is in the tortillas (if ordering a burrito), because they have 3 different kinds! Then you add whatever toppings your heart desires. They have a greater selection of toppings than what Chipotle offers, which is fun to try! One option that caught my eye was cabbage haha. Flavor is good, and burrito tastes cohesive, but definitely not the best burrito you'll ever have. Price is extremely reasonable, as it is catered towards hungry college students. They also give you a huge portion of food. Good stop if you're hungry and want to try extra toppings on a Chipotle-esque burrito! read more

Cabo Bob's Burritos, where do I even begin. The love I feel for this place is immeasurable. If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would. This place is probably my favorite restaurant in all of Austin. If you like chipotle or Mexican food in general and you haven't been here yet, you're missing out big time! I love their fish burrito, I don't order exactly how it is on the menu but it's pretty similar. What's nice about Cabo Bob's is that it's just like chipotle where you get to select your ingredients down a line like a build your own burrito, and if you're unsure with what you want they do have a menu you can order from. Their ingredients are super fresh, they have a great sauce selection, and a variety of meats to choose from. I try to always visit at least once every time I'm back in Austin, I highly recommend trying them out! read more
