Definitely one of my favorite places to go, but they don't listen. I tell him no tomatoes and they still stick tomatoes on my burritos. I'm definitely allergic the Services great. Never had any complaints about that. The establishment is clean. They're friendly, but they just have to listen. read more

I've been coming here off and on for about two years, maybe once or twice a year. It's always been just ok. Portions are small for the price, but the quality was usually acceptable. I kept coming back hoping it would improve. Today was a different story. I stopped in on my way to work and ordered a breakfast chorizo burrito, and it was easily the worst food I've had in a long time. The beans tasted old, like they'd been sitting for weeks, and completely overpowered everything else. It was honestly terrible, and the aftertaste lingered (I can still taste how terrible it was). I live in Tacoma, where a new California Burrito recently opened, and the quality there is significantly better. I hope that location maintains its standards, because this one (in Des Moines WA) will never get my money again with their terrible food. read more

Don't Uber Eats there's food cause they lie on the description and don't give refund, I ordered a chorizo breakfast burrito said chorizo, potato, cheese, eggs paid to add sour cream When delivered only had chorizo in it, and it was disgusting, don't order, way too expensive for the food read more

It's pretty darn spicy! This is hoised in a defunct fast food chain place that they have Re-flagged as a Mexican restaurant. It could use a bit of Maintenance. Inside, it looks pretty worn out. The best things about it are the portion size because the burritos are said to be the biggest in town, and that's probably true. All around ten dollars each, they're a very healthy size. The other good thing is the salsa bar. I thought the whole place skewed really spicy. The pickled onions are too spicy for me to eat as are the pickled carrots. All the Salsas are pretty hot. The prices aren't that great. The police looks dirty. So, three stars is the most I can give it. read more

I ordered the Carne Asada Fries. With extra guacamole. Unfortunately, the beef tasted like it had started to turn. It had a rancid flavor that ruined everything else. I have had other dishes there, taquitos were good. But this was awful. read more

California Burrito - Rancid Carne Asada Fries - Mexican Near Me - Des Moines, Washington

Very helpful and polite staff. They made a delicious vegetarian breakfast burrito (eggs, potatoes, pico de gallo).

Doubled my order and did not address or even make an effort to change to make it right.

Tried this after seeing generally good reviews here. I got the following: Carne asada burrito. Huge, with lots of steak, pico de gallo and guacamole. Tasty and tender. Chorizo breakfast burrito. Also big, with chorizo, eggs, cheese and potatoes. Milder than Alibertos Jr chorizo. Fish Taco. Big, with savory sauce and tasty fish. This location has a drive thru, I walked in to save a little time. There's a salsa bar with different salsas, plus carrots cucumbers, radishes and cilantro. Lots of food delivery pickups when I was there. Would go back if in the area. read more

Fast Mexican food spot and you get a large amount of food for the price that you pay. Affordable and shareable sizes. I got the carne asada fries and burrito and a lot of sauces came with our order! I also liked their Horchata - it wasn't that thick of a texture however, and it is more on the watered down side. It was refreshing, nonetheless and I would get it again to satisfy Horchata cravings. The workers are friendly and it's overall a reliable fast Mexican food on the go! It's not my personal favorite for satisfying Mexican food fixes specifically, but I would come here with friends to share fries or split a burrito if I'm looking for greasy food to fill me up at a decent price point. read more

California Burrito - The most disgusting burrito I've ever had in my life a tortilla wrapped in grease and over cooked meat and disgusting pico de gallo - Mexican Near Me - Des Moines, Washington

i got a veggie burrito with added veggies and i cannot believe how disgusting it was. it was so soggy and wet inside like they poured water into it i literally couldn't finish my food. read more

I've seen reviews here that are not just fair to the business. For how quick, affordable, and amount of food you get, you cannot complain. The carbe asada burrito, tacos and Carne Asada fries are my families favorite. This is not a sit down restaurant so the service, food quality and speed met my expectations. read more

things I like about this place the price, the size and the nostalgia of classic California burrito shops I grew up with that didn't add too many items, your burrito and charge you a Buffat price because of it... Things I did not like about this place where the fact, the fact the big old fact they did not know how to cook they're cheap meat. Well if you know anything about true Mexican, lol wind Stan's restaurants trucks the essential part of their MasterChef service is cooking, cheap meats and cheap items well... My biggest right here is that they did not know how to cook down the grizzle and fat off of their carne Asada to add to the flavor. Instead, he just stayed as grizzle and she was chunky kinda had to spit out or choke down... now I am not a person that is afraid of that and I did not throw away the burrito when I got you a few of those bites but being that I got about 10 or 12 of those bites and one burrito seems like they just don't know how to do their job quite well and for that a 3 star read more

California Burrito - Washington burrito is great, meat quality isnt, but its kinda the cali carne way haha, bo regrets - Mexican Near Me - Des Moines, Washington

I was in Seattle for 5 days. Food places are not very good. I come from Los Angeles, CA where the variety of food is endless and delicious. I was craving Mexican food so i drove around and saw this place. I figured I cant go wrong with a bean and cheese burrito or taquitos Lol I was wrong The burrito was huge but horrible. The beans have to be the canned Rosarita beans because they tasted exactly like it. As soon as I took a bite I was disappointed. I added the salsa because that can sometimes help cover the taste but the salsa was tasteless. The rolled taquitos were ok. They were cold but i ate them. The guy at the window was very nice though. read more

Delicious! Convenient and open 24hrs! Clean. Prices are a bit high but portions are generous so it's worth it. This place features a drive-thru as well as sit down dining. Nothing fancy. This place reminded me of a McDonalds inside. My California Burrito (called the Washington Burrito) confused me as this place is literally called, "California Burrito" but doesn't offer them on the menu. If you want one, order the Washington. Beware there is a condiment bar inside, but a lot of the veggies, peppers and salsas are extremely HOT! You have been warned. All in all this place is great and staff was friendly when we visited, despite previous reviews. read more

I love their machaca breakfast burrito. They are open 24 hours, they have a drive thru (can get pretty busy) and their staff is super friendly. I haven't dined in but it looks like a good place for a quick bite. They also have great nachos too! read more

So, we all know my love of Mexican food, and this place just gives me joy. They are 24/7, so I can have not breakfast food for breakfast, taquitos to be exact. Fried perfectly, nice and crispy, slight brown, covered in salad and guacamole, and then slathered in their salsas. My husband got the machaca breakfast burrito, and seriously folk, this thing was large, we could have shared it for several meals. And he was very happy to eat it. Prices were good, people were super friendly and a drive thru! This is a total win. read more

Tasty breakfast burrito I'll get again when I'm dropping someone off at the airport. I ordered the chorizo version.

Idk where all the bad reviews are coming from, we really enjoyed this place. Wide variety in the salsa bar and great food. Definitely recommend read more

Yes, prices have increased - there's a little thing called inflation that's been going on. Yes, the staff is a little rough around the edges, but they make good food and they got us what we needed & ordered. We've been going here for years and still love it. Tonight we tried out the shrimp burrito as others recommended it, and found it decent. Really the gem of the night though was revisiting our go-to carne asada burrito that was full of meat. We also tried out the loaded nachos, mostly for our kiddos, and was delightfully surprised by it. The chips were yummy despite seemingly line cheap chips. Some parts of the steak were overly chewy but still decent. The carne asada burrito, shrimp burrito, loaded nachos and a large horchata came out to $33.70 read more

Great place for California Mexican food. Prices are very reasonable and the food is delicious. The outside of the restaurant and the inside is nothing special but the food and great prices make it well worth it. I had the Washington burrito. It is huge. Definitely enough for 2 to eat from or one extremely hungry person. The burrito has potatoes, steak, cheese and pico de gio all wrapped in a tortilla. Very filling and tasty!!! Great job California Burrito!!!! read more

Delicious, delicious delicious especially the shrimp burritos great accommodating service,

Worst place ever!!! Ordered a fajita burrito with a side of rice n beans because there was none in my burrito!!! Got back to my hotel and it was a bean n cheese burrito. With a side of beans n rice.... I'll never eat beans again!!!! Been calling all night and the next day and still no answer!!! Even took pics of my order hoping to reach someone and nothing!!!!! Lame... and a rip off... also the carne asada fries were disgusting. Zero love in their food. Dry meat with no seasoning. Best part of the food was the green sauce. If only I got my burrito to enjoy it!!! read more

Stop by late at night, staff was nice and patient since we didn't know the menu at all. We ended up getting the Seattle Burrito and the Fajita Burrito. Both were great. Perfect late night dinner. The place is a bit run down but go for the food not the pics. read more

This is hands down my fave breakfast burrito spot since moving from Texas. This drive thru never misses. It takes a good sec to get your food but it's worth the wait and the burrito is the size of your arm. The flavors hit and they don't miss once you get passed the first tortilla fold its on and popping. The staff are always chill and nice but I only go to the drive thru so I don't know what it's like on the inside. read more

This is the best Mexican place around for fast food. The burritos are huge, the rolled tacos were filled with meat and had lots of toppings. The service personnel here are really friendly and very fast. Good place to sit they have lots of booths and it's quiet inside. They have a really good salsa bar. I'm from San Diego and this is what I'm used to and love. read more

California burrito is in Washington. I was visiting my brother and we went here after I landed. This is a chain restaurant and it has locations in California too. My brother told me he had been to the one in Vacaville, California, but this one is way better. I guess California burrito is better in Washington. I think it's just on brand for this place to be contradictory. The sign says "CALIFORNIA BURRITO" in big letters and then "TACO SHOP" in smaller letters underneath. What do they want to be known for? They're a taco shop named California burrito? That's like an Apple Farm being named "Georgia Peaches". Anyway, I didn't try their tacos, but their burrito was very good. read more

It's a little slice of East L.A., which I've missed so much after moving to the Pacific Northwest. I always go for breakfast & get the huevos rancheros with added carne asada. I'm not saying it's the best I've had, but it is like visiting Olvera St. in Los Angeles. Good food & times. read more

I would give 3 stars, but they charge EXTRA to substitute beans for meat even though beans are cheaper than meat. Basically if you are vegetarian and want to swap beans for meat, they pay less for a product AND you pay more. read more

Ordered the carne asada quesadilla tonight. Got two pie slices of grown beef burnt cheese and nothing else. Meat was old, didn't even cut it up I 4s just two SLOPS. the only thing good was the kids meal, and I'm sure it came out of box! 2 stars cuz yaw made a kids meal good read more

I have to say I was hoping this was going to be similar to a place. I'd like to go in Southern California but unfortunately, it was not I posted a photograph of all the onions I had to remove from my bean and cheese burrito. And their defense I asked for a bean and cheese burrito with extra cheese and can you please throw a few onions on it? I did not ask for extra onions, however. Even if I had asked for extra onions, this is about five times the amount of onions I think, even "extra" would mean. Normally, I will try a place at least twice before I pass judgment, but I just can't do that on this one. I will not be going back and it is unfortunate because they are very close to my house. read more

California Burrito - Carne Asada Fries with shrimp - Mexican Near Me - Des Moines, Washington

You know, I have such a hard time deciding where I stand with this place. At first, I was over the moon to find a 24-hour taco shop 5 minutes away from my house. But since then, I've come to realize that it's much more of a love-hate relationship than anything. The problem is in the shop's consistency. About 95% of the time, there is some sort of error with my order. One time, they gave us an entirely different order. And this is whether I go through the drive-thru, or I order through a food delivery service. Of course, I could go inside, where they have a great salsa bar. But, since most of the time it rains in Seattle, the drive-thru is much more appealing. I love coming here because the food is delicious. But honestly, it's very obvious that the staff just doesn't care. I'm brown, and I can't tell you how many eye rolls I've gotten when I ask for extra salsa (or any salsa at all). It's busy and it gets good business,but if you come here and can't go inside, please check your food before you leave. read more

Service was nice. Definitely recommend if it's 3am and you have few other options like I did. There steak burrito was OK, but not memorable. They claim they are huge, but in reality not so much. The price is good though for what you get, no complaints there. read more
