Had the shrimp burrito and it was fireeeeee. Next time I'm in NYC I will most likely get it again.

Update: manager sent a nice apology email, refunded what I'd paid, and included a gift voucher. Sweet! read more

Electric Burrito - Carne tacos mislabeled as portobello tacos - Mexican Near Me - New York, New York

Had high hopes but nothing special unfortunately. Everything in the conga burrito (rice, beans, pico with chicken) was very bland. They accidentally gave me a piece of steak that was both dry and chewy made me glad I went with the chicken. I would give the breakfast burritos a shot but probably wouldn't come back otherwise. read more

Tried the burrito and burrito bowl. A little bit disappointing. Felt like way too much bean mush inside. First time and last time here. read more

Electric Burrito - Mexican Near Me - New York, New York

Holy delicious. I'm not much of a burrito girl but the classic breakfast burrito has been stuck on my mind. Love that the classic breakfast has French fries inside, super minimal but delicious burrito!!! The little hole in the wall spot is so cozy and limited but the perfect vibe. Service was nothing extraordinary but they were all locked in. Highly recommend if you want to order take out, or a small group of friends sit on the bar stools. read more

Love this place! Came here over 10+ times! Must try the California burrito with Carne Asada! I think the carne asada is the best choice of meat here :) Service is quick. Order and wait about 10 mins. You can eat here or take it to-go read more

Decent burrito and pricing. Wish it had a little more flavor and spice to be honest. Will probably look for somewhere with more flavor next time! read more

Great place for a hugeeee burrito -- I got the Cali burrito (w/ Carnitas, their recommendation) and added avocado (ironically not included in a cali burrito). The wait was definitely a little long (10-15 mins) even though they weren't that busy. The carnitas itself was kinda dry, but the combination of flavors made it very enjoyable. There's a park not too far away -- great place to sit, eat a burrito, and people watch on a good weather. read more

If you want california style burritos this is one of my go to spots. I opt in for the carne asada.

Really good hungover burrito! I got the lunch burrito and i wish i wasn't so hungover that i could have more of the spicy sauce but the fries stayed pretty crispy and it's a massive size! read more

Electric Burrito - Lunch Burrito - Mexican Near Me - New York, New York

Overall, it's decent but nothing remarkable. The salsa on the side is great though -- it really elevates the whole burrito. My main gripe is the pricing. Add-ons like guac make the price climb fast, and for a California burrito, it's odd that guac isn't already included. The food comes out quickly, but I'd recommend getting it to go unless you're fine with perching on a stool. It's definitely not a spot for groups since you won't be able to sit facing each other. Overall, this was totally fine. I'd come again but am in no rush to do so. read more

Grabbed a quick bite from electric burrito for lunch. This location is pretty small so I wouldn't plan on eating there but if you are lucky a spot may open up! I had the California burrito with pollo asado. Great, filling burrito! Definitely recommend! Service was really quick- probably ready within 5-10 minutes read more

Updating my review, as I've ordered delivery a few other times since my last review and unfortunately, wasn't as blown away. Food arrived cold (pro-tip, turn on the oven while it's in transit so that if you do need to warm it up, it's a little faster!). The guac was just okay. We also ordered extra chips, which weren't in the order. Burritos still solid and a good portion. Was able to save half of it for the next day! read more

STOP THE PRESS!!! I HAVE FINALLY FOUND ~JUST MAYBE~ THE BEST BURRITO SPOT IN NEW YORK CITY!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is such a hole in the wall, it's so cute inside, free water which is great, and also the food is TOP TIER! My CA burrito is actually tasting like from CALIFORNIA. I'm obsessed. I can't wait to come back. I'm so happy this place exists! Hell yeah to the burrito. read more

Highly recommend! Was staying in East Village and wanted a quick burrito nearby. Service was super quick. This place is pretty popular, but never crowded as the orders go by super quickly. It is a pretty small environment with a few stools for sitting, but I took my order to-go. I got the California burrito with Carne Asada as it seemed the most popular, and I was not disappointed whatsoever. Quality was great, and their orange sauce was even better as an additional topping! My burrito came with two condiment cups of orange sauce. read more

Sadly one of the most mid burritos I ever had. We were the only people in the joint, ordered the Hot Rod, and waited nearly 20 minutes for a cold and sad burrito that was falling apart in my hands. The only thing that made it taste slightly good was the salsa that came with it on the side. I guess the carnitas taco wasn't too bad. Oh well. read more

This is the best burrito I've had in a long time!! I had the breakfast burrito with guacamole.

This is a must try I feel. The food was so good I wish I had this in my home state. This was a cool hipster take on Mexican food. I got the bowl and added carnitas and ranchero shrimp. The carnitas stole the show for me. It was so tender! You get a lot of food for the price also. Service was nice and the person was very helpful with making accommodations. This is a more carry out place with very little seating. I went early when they just opened, but there were about 7 ppl waiting for food. Please give them a try! read more

You come up and order at the cashier. And after that it's a waiting game.. generally there's a line in the evening. I think my burrito was ready in 15-20min. Very filling! And their sauce is SO good. The burrito came with one small container of sauce, but I had asked them for a second container and they were happy to give more. Extra saucy is the way to go! Their ingredient balance is off and towards the end of the burrito it was just rice and a ton of tortilla. And.. I didn't find crema although it said it was suppose to come with it. I wish they mastered that! Especially because they're a go-to spot in St Marks area. Was it worth it? Yes. Is it the best burrito? No. read more

East Village, small burrito shop with a menu focused on burritos and tacos.

Electric Burrito - Mexican Near Me - New York, New York

Great place for a burrito! Very small store with stools that face the wall, immediately walking in, what caught my eye was that the meat was super fresh! The guy in there was cutting the meat like it was a butcher and I just knew it would be good just from seeing that and knowing they don't use frozen meat. I got the Hot Rod + my girlfriend got the Johnny, both were delicious. Coming from a person that eats a lot, the burritos here are huge! Left very full and they were very tasty, I loved the breakfast burrito but next time probably would just get the regular breakfast burrito no bacon, with the hot rod it felt like a lot was in it but it was still great read more

10000000/10 best burrito I've ever had. I LOVED the fries in the burrito although super heavy the crunch they added was great. I ate the mushroom one because my friend was vegetarian and I don't even like mushrooms and I loved it. I definitely want to come back and try another California burrito with meat. read more

By just the carne asada fries alone will I give this place 5 stars and I havent tried anything else yet. Oh my god was this meal so damn good. I was so full half way too. Im definitely coming back to get the fries and something else next time. The place is small but good for a quick bite if you are there alone. Seemed very hole in the wall but so happy to have tried! Coming back soon because I'm drooling over my own photo lolol. read more

I was in the East Village area and was craving a burrito and was so glad to find this place! It's very small and was pretty crowded when I went so there was no seating, and I decided to eat at a nearby park instead. The staff was nice and my order came out quickly. I just ordered a bean and cheese burrito but it was delicious! Very filling and even had a little spicy kick that added to the flavor! read more

These burritos are SUPER VALID. The Johnny Utah is the go to. I've also had a shrimp x pollo asado as well which was basically the same level of fire. For the east coast this is the best burrito spot I've seen. I wish they had lengua or cabeza but I understand that it's a gentrified burrito spot. Highly recommend. read more

Electric Burrito - Johnny Utah Burrito - Mexican Near Me - New York, New York

Ordered the Chorizo and Hot Rod burritos to share among three people. If you need a comfort food fix, this place will hit the spot. The burritos are huge! If I ate it alone, one burrito would be two meals for me. I love that there were crispy french fries inside the burrito. The Hot Rod burrito was a tad bit too salty, but that was due to the bacon. I enjoyed the chorizo one more. I usually do not like beans in the burrito, but I did not mind it at all in these burritos, it was good. The eggs were perfectly cooked with an oozy/jammy yolk. The filling and flavors blended well together. In my area, there aren't TexMex breakfast burritos so I really enjoyed my food at Electric Burrito. We got there when they opened, and it was already very busy. There is complimentary water. It is small inside, but there are a few seats available to eat at. read more

Electric Burrito is one of my go-to places for a quick and easy meal! Their Southern California style burritos are not only delicious but they're also a hefty size so it'll definitely leave you fully satisfied. The Johnny Utah burrito is a personal favorite but their California burrito is also a delicious option. The ingredients are fresh and the flavors are well balanced. The Hot Rod Breakfast burrito (available all day!!) is also a delightful option for breakfast enthusiasts. One thing to note is that there is very limited seating but the staff is friendly and efficient. If you're ever in the East Village and craving delicious burritos, look no further! read more

As a flight attendant who eats one burrito during every SF overnight AND brings an extra one home, I love Electric. Their menu touts both Mission- and Southern California style burritos (no fries versus fries). Me personally? I always go no fries but they're both equally as scrumdiddlyumptious. Something about seeing the gent at the register always in his Padres hat comforts me in that I'm at the right place for a Cali burrito. read more

Electric Burrito - Mexican Near Me - New York, New York

To start, I'm from Southern California and I grew up with dozens of excellent California burritos right next to my house. That being said, I've been looking for a good burrito in the city for a while now and after trying Electric Burrito (a top recommendation from many), I'm still looking. We tried the standard California burrito, the mushroom burrito, and the fries. The burritos were not that flavorful, the steak was overcooked, the tortillas were okay, the fries were like McDonald's fries (not my preference for inside burritos - typically you get a thick fry), and had unmelted cheese inside. The sauce was a chipotle sauce which wasn't bad but it could have had more flavor. The service was good though! The workers are very friendly and helpful and make the experience nice so I did appreciate that. read more

I got the California burrito with Carne Asada and really liked it. It's a small store, but there were a few stools if you want to eat inside like I did. The carne asada by itself was nothing to write home about (chipotle steak may be better), but in combination with the crispy, fresh fries, melty cheese, pico, and salsa it was one of the better burritos I've had. I'm not sure how this burrito would've been if you didn't eat it at the store, as I believe the fresh fries were a big reason why this burrito was good. However if you can eat it fresh, I highly recommend! read more

This place is known for its California burritos, but it's the closest I've gotten to a Tex Mex burrito in the city! I ordered the bean & cheese and added chicken and guac and it was great. Kind of expensive with the additions putting me at $17 with tax. That said, it's super big and so filling; I'm not sure I'll be able to finish it. The burrito totally fell apart and was kinda greasy, but I'm not mad about it! I'll be back. read more

PRO TIP: ask for extra spicy sauce, it adds so much and one little container may not be enough! RATING: 7/10 California burritos are finally hitting the scene in NYC (which means fries in your burrito). CHORIZO BURRITO ($13) w spicy sauce Spicy sauce is great, hefty, great hangover fix. Tortilla is better than other NYC burritos. Stuffed, and no dripping. Wish there was more chorizo, had a hard time getting bites of it sometimes. California style yes, california taste - not quite. West Coast burritos are still def better and the tortilla is good for NY but not as good as SoCal. Also I prefer scrambled eggs rather than fried egg in my breakfast burrito. Enjoyed overall, might come back for their carne asada fries or reg california burrito. FINAL CATEGORY: GOOD (from Terrible, Bad, OK, Good, Great, Excellent) read more

Have heard great things about these burritos and they met the expectation! The California burrito was delicious. The fries inside with cheese? Oh man that was good. We got pork inside. Great.

I've heard of this place for a whole year and finally made my way here...then found out this was the old St. Marks Xi'An Famous Foods location aka small space. A few counter seats and a small, open kitchen, Electric Burrito has a simple menu. The food tasted fresh for sure and its burrito is the thicker style instead of long style. The burrito I got was with chicken, fries and pico de gallo. It was cool to eat burrito with fries at first then it got boring. Not something I would get again. I would like to try other burritos without fries next time. Was it a blew my mind place? No. This place is like a 3.7 for me. Ordering system was easy: Tell them what you want, pay and wait. There wouldn't be much room to wait inside if there are also customers eating in. read more

There's a lot of hype around this California style burrito shop, so naturally I had to stop by and see what the hype is about. It's a tiny shop on the end of St Mark's Place and seems like they alway have a crowd. I got their signature California Burrito w Carne Asada ($14). Packed within this burrito consists of french fries, cheese, pico de gallo, and your choice of protein. It probably was amazing if you've never had a burrito with french fries, but unfortunately there's quite a handful of shops that do this now. Filling for sure and delicious. For sure a convenient shop in the East Village if you're in this area craving a nice fat burrito. read more

Shrimp burrito had amazing flavor and texture. Chips were solid and the orange sauce was fantastic. The veggie breakfast burrito was dry and super heavy, the fries were a bit too dense and claggy. Would definitely return and skip any fries. read more

Well well well, another day another burrito! This place is T-riffic! I usually get the Johnny Utah while my girl acquaintance gets a chicken taco.
