I love this place, cheap fast and decent food. Close to the house. I think the rice is amazing, and I always get the steak burrito. Its fantastic. read more

Wish we had one of these where I live. Great value, delicious and nice guy at the counter. Super fast. Did not disappoint...fat burrito was huge! read more

they always mess up my order and never answer my phone calls. this place is so unreliable i just can't

Absolutely delicious and LARGE burritos!!! I always have enough to take home and eat as leftovers! Their rice is great as well! Wonderful and friendly service! read more

Food was decent, not bad but not amazing either. Fat burrito is definitely FAT - portions were generous and prices are reasonable - we feed 5 for $35. Place is pretty small and a bit run-down, but staff seemed on top of everything and service was good. I'd eat here again. read more

One of the best Mexican places we've ever been to. Food and service were fantastic!!!

We always have good food at Fat Burrito. The service is always good too. It is not fancy, but enjoyable.

Always come in clutch. I love their Tacos and Burritos. Also their breakfast is very good as well. Always quick and very professional.

Great staff. This place is always busy. The steak tacos and burritos are very good. The sope is to die for...it is most excellent. My wife and I carry out at least once a week. The staff is always friendly and attentive. This is authentic Mexicsn food right in Crown Point, Indiana. Hood prices. They also serve a variety of beer in bottles. read more

Woah, what's with the negative reviews?? Go back to Hacienda or Chi-Chis if you don't like an authentic mom and pop shop!! I grew up in the Southwest and I know what GREAT Americanized Mexican food is; Fat Burrito makes it. This hole-in-the-wall reminds me of some of the places I use to enjoy in Arizona. Tortillas are authentic and HUGE - not that plastic crap they mostly sell in the midwest. Steak is tender and flavorful. The salsa and red sauce is tasty. I usually order an avocado burrito with a side of beans. YUMMY!! My husband ordered steak tacos today that were out of this world!! I stole one. Horchata is the best I've ever had. Prices are more than fair. No more Taco Bell for me, Baby! ;) They don't have traditional Mexican food here, such as Menudo - like I said, it's Americanized. Do me a favor and visit this place often for dine in or carry out - help me keep this place in business so I can have my southwestern fix! I think you'll like it, too. read more

Tried Fat Burrito in Highland last week for the first time. In three words, was not good. Got the steak burrito. Very bland. Could not tell what type of steak it was in the burrito. It was bad. I was expecting skirt steak but I don't think it was and if it was it was really lousy. Anyway, it doesn't matter how big the burrito is if it stinks. Memo's steak burrito was way better. I don't think I'll be back. One and done. read more

The highland location food is excellent. The issue I had was the service. The waitresses never around and never came to ask if there was anything we needed. You had one only stand by the cash register and would go to the back when I tried to get her attention. Each time I go there the waitresses are slow to take my order. I thought I give it one last try and food was great service terrible. Don't think I'm going back again. read more

I love Mexican food and am always open to new things but this was not the place for me. My brother claims it was pretty good when he went but my experience wasn't as fortune. We ordered takeout which was the specialty, Fat burritos. They were so salty that we needed extra salsa to calm them down. The chips and pico de gallo were excellent though. My brother says I need to give this place a chance as dine in so I may be posting another review in the future. read more

Of course another great little place, ruined because they have gotten to big. Went in last night for carry out. Was so happy to see them packed, the place bigger, cleaner. Then disappointment. The steak in the Burrito was dry, chewy, & unpleasant. Woke up at 2 in the morning, vomiting cause my stomach was so jacked. And believe me, it was Fat Burrito. Too bad, won't be going in and will have to ask around and share my experience. I would give them another try but have caught on to places like these, or places in general anymore. The more disgusting food they push out the more $ from the sap's, not me. read more

this place is just amazing. during these difficult times consider ordering. if you call and ask they will do curb pick up.

This place is the bomb. I really enjoy good Mexican Food, and they never disappoint at Fat Burrito. Menu is not extensive but they are really good at what they do here. My family dines in and does carry outs on a regular basis and we are always amazed that they have never messed up even large carryout orders. read more

Hands down some of the best Mexican food I've ever had. The burritos are huge and very satisfying. The ingredients are always fresh. The rice and salsa is equally as good. Also, the horchata is addicting. Whenever I think of Mexican food, this is where I want to go. read more

Went there bc reviews seemed good, not the case for me, after we sat down and gave order it took about an hour to receive, it seemed as if they were making all the walk-ins before the people sitting for food, no one had anything but chips and salsa on the tables for as long as we didn't, the salsa had no real flavor. I had the steak taco and meat seemed a little on the fatty side the chicken flauta had no flavor as well, will probably not return. read more

Mmmmm! I LOVE this place! So delicious and pretty quick for take out :) Their horchata is really good and I personally love getting the avocado burrito. You can ask for melted cheese on top and salsa verde to eat with it = amazing!! And the portions. You will be full. read more

The best around for miles and miles. Superior customer service and delicious food. They are always super busy but they've always had my food ready within 15-25 minutes when I call in to-go orders. They always get your order right and the prices are very reasonable. Go here. You won't regret it. read more

This is a great place for Mexican burritos. They are huge n you probably can make 2 meals from one burrito. Very authentic.

I was very impressed with Fat Burrito! I'm a born and raised Chicago girl, therefore I was lucky enough to be raised with amazingly diverse foods. And yes, I actually mean Chicago and not a suburb of. I recently hopped states and moved to Indiana, and good Mexican food has been something I've missed like crazy! But now Fat Burrito can fill that void! I will still miss my faves, like Zaca Tacos, but I take solace in knowing a good steak taco isn't far away!!! read more

My favorite Mexican joint in NWI. You always get great food and great price and a lot of it. Me and the wife find our way here often.

These guys are the best they will never have any place that comes close to their food Or they're great customer service. Hands down the best Mexican which is truly authentic read more

I have ate here probably about 9 times, I have had many good experiences, and the food is always as good or better that you expect from a fast Mexican pick-up place. However, I did want to mention that when I went there last night and ordered 3 meals, plus Large Guac, and Large Cheese, they sent two bags of chips, each had about a handful of chips in them?? Did not make sense, then they charged me $1 a bag for two more with only a handful of chips lol, Other times, I received huge bag of chips, just for getting salsa. But other than that the Burrito's and Taco's were very good! Probably won't return again, because I LOVE CHIPS :) read more

Food is good and prices are reasonable. I usually ask for avocado in my burrito and sour cream on the side and they are very accommodating.

Took the family there on Halloween night for dinner. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. We ordered the "fat burritos" and they were HUGE. Very tasty, steak was seasoned deliciously. I thought it was little on the pricey side but not horrible. I would recommend this place and I will return. read more

I have nothing but good things to say about this place. Being of hispanic decent this place is the best around they have authentic Mexican food which is rare for the area. They recently moved to a larger location which shows they are busy but not lacking in service. They are very attentive and and friendly which is sometimes rear for busy places. I Highly recommend them! read more

This place certainly lives up to its name. The wait was long for carry out but worth every minute! They even had chicken tenders for our non taco enthusiasts. If you are in or around Crown Point you should definitely check this place out read more

Our favorite!! We never go anywhere else for Mexican food. The fat burrito is massive and even the regular size burrito is still large enough for 2 meals, especially because I always fill up on their chips, salsa and amazing white cheese dip! My husband prefers chorizo, while I go for the steak. I also enjoy the chimichanga, which comes with a spoonful of guac on top. read more

We went to The Fat Burrito for the third time last night. We have enjoyed every visit. Clean place friendly staff ( who may be all family) fast service even though they were very busy . Both of our dinners last night wee very good nice size portions at a fair price . This has become our new favorite Mexican restaurant. read more

Fast good service and pretty good tacos, if you want better you'd have to go to the south side..... best in town

This place should not have as high of a reading as it does. There are lots of better Mexican restaurants in the Northwest Indiana region. The burritos from this place are super sloppy and almost gross. Go to La Carreta or Villa Del sol if you want good mexican food. read more

This place has the best food in the area! If you haven't tried the chicken burrito here yet, you most definitely need to! This is the only place I've found that does not have bland chicken chunks in a tortilla. The staff is amazing! Super reasonable pricing too. read more

One of THE best local mexican food joints! Great prices, good quality and consistency!

This place is AWESOME! They take care of their customers and the prices and food can't be beat!

Chorizo egg fat burrito is where it's at. The portions are absolutely massive and the prices are great. My husband ordered the chicken/beef fajitas, which looked delicious, however, he thought meat was overcooked. Overall, it was a good experience and would recommend. It gets only 4 stars for the overcooked meat and slightly slow service. read more

pLace is a little difficult to find tucked away in a small strip mall. I was seated promptly by all male staff. Nice menu selection. I ordered. The Buritto Suizza for $5.99. Chips and salsa promptly brought to table. Very good, I received my order within 15 minutes.Choice of Red or Green pepper sauce coved my Buritto . This is a very diverse group of customers from business people to construction workers. Everyone has a take home box when you leave.. This was my first visit, and I will go back again and again. Great food, good food, reasonable priced. read more

Home run, once again. Don't waste your time going to Chicago for great Mexican food. It's right here people...
