Honestly the burrito game in the area is lack lustre at best, just like red burrito. I felt it was to sloppy and not enough flavours. The veggie burrito will Definitely do in a pinch. read more

Food very high quality. Staff very friendly. Prices quite reasonable. Had burritos in bowl. Sure you get lots more than with bread! We'll return! read more

I think customers' Red Burrito experience can be improved by offering a HUGE sign outside the establishment that they only accept cash; and to make matters worse, they only take debit card. This, you discover after going through the line up and spending an enormous amount of time customizing your burrito. Oh and here's what would make your blood boil even more. They will charge you a fee for using your debit card!! The only thing I remember about the actual food experience is thinking "hmmm the cilantro and lime go well together". read more

manager misheard our order and refused to remake it or issue a refund! tried to tell us that we ordered what he made, when obviously i know i did not. refused to believe that he may have misheard. couldn't even eat the food as I cant have as much cheese. still want my $27.50 back! real gem read more

The meal I just had was so good I downloaded yelp to write a review.Im on a strict no carb diet and they still remember(" no rice ,no bean") after not being in for months at a time . Always nice popping in there. read more

A lot of time has passed since their 2009 3rd place win for Best in the City, because there is little to nothing exciting about this place. I ordered two Red Burritos (did I mention their limited menu?), which are only red because they are store-bought tomato-flavored. I don't know, I just expected something more exotic that that, but anyway, their "Red Burrito" was stuffed with wet, mushy pulled pork and dry, underseasoned rice and chock-full of vegetables - so much so that the poor person behind the counter had to re-wrap one of mine because nothing could hold that mess together. Yes, yes I know its extra for guac but nothing could save the utter flavorlessness of this wrap. After the 20+ I paid for one re-wrapped burrito and one soggy mess, I get home to find that instead of stacking them side by side, they have stacked them one atop the other so the bottom on is smushed and soggy too. We tried to salvage some of it but ended up composting the lot. A waste of time and money, and honestly prime real estate. read more

I can't speak for American burrito restaurants but out of all the burrito serving restaurants in Canada that I've been to, the Red Burrito stands out as my favourite. It's a very filling meal for a reasonably low price, with great ingredients to choose from to create your burrito. Also, the locations in Downtown Vancouver have great ambience and put you within walking distance of everything the area has to offer. read more

I went to Red Burrito looking for something different from burgers and pizza and I think I found it. I had the chicken burrito with rice and all the vegetables and extra cheese. It was very filling and hit the spot. I wouldn't eat here every day but it is a good change of pace. i will definitely be back. read more

All my Canadian friends SWEAR by this place but being from California and almost turning Mexican from all the delicious Mexican food I consumed, I didn't think this place was good at all. If you've been to Chipotle, you'll recognize the technique. You have a choice as to what kind of meat you want. Do you want that in a burrito, salad, bowl, etc... and choice of toppings to go with it. The foods fresh, the service is friendly and it's in the trendy commercial drive area. So after your meal, go work it off with some shopping. Canadians love it, Americans not so much. Damn I really miss having good Mexican food. read more

Ok I hate to be a nay-sayer but this place is not at all what I expected. Tried it out a few weeks ago and I guess I got turned off because I ended up with food poisoning. Yup a bad case of food poisoning which was too bad because I tried Red Burrito at a different location and I thought it was ok; I wouldn't say the best Mexican but just ok. This location leaves little to be desired. Not what you would call true authentic Mexican, after the first bite you can tell it is clearly fast food. What I ended up getting sick on was the chips and salsa with a side of guacamole believe it or not. Was the only thing I ate all afternoon so I definitely know it was that. Last visit I tried the chicken soft tacos, 3 small tacos but pretty ordinary and one of the other reviewers had said dry and we are talking Las Vegas desert dry. So yeah, turned off and after this second visit I won't go back. There are so many more authentic Mexican restaurants right in the same vicinity if you like the feel of the drive. Red Burrito is a case of you get what you pay for. I have had a better Old El Paso boxed taco dinner that was much tastier and that is saying a lot! read more

My chicken was dry, I was given barely any guacamole, and there salsa was bland. Was super excited to try this place out, but wouldn't go back again. read more

The burritos were good but the man (owner?) behind the counter seemed irritable and was not welcoming at all. The 2 young gals behind the counter didn't smile, didn't say hello, they both looked scared, in fact. We drove from Delta to try this place and won't be back. If you can't make people feel welcome then why would they want to return. This was Saturday, Nov. 24th. read more

This place is horrible. I really have no idea why people still go here. I ordered today with Ubereats and the highlight of the whole thing was the delivery guy. The whole order was a cold mess. I will never go back or order again. I feel sick after taking 3 bites. I'll update if I get food poisoning. Waste of $15. read more

Nothing beats being on The Drive and stepping in for some Mexican that actually tastes like it should. Simple store front with a simple menu. Tortillas have a nice consistency and portion size is reminiscent of being back in the US. I, however, have heard recently, that prices have gone up considerably. I guess that warrants a visit, any excuse for a burrito! read more

In the words of Teddy KGB, "I feel so unsatisfied". Better than Steamrollers flavour-wise (if you can consider Steamrollers 'Mexican) - but that's not saying much. Shows me to be lazy and want a quick meal to go (again, like KGB -- "... like a young man coming in for a quickie."). Grabbed a fully-loaded pork burrito for ~$7 after tax. Not a lot of meat, beans or rice added - but loaded with veggies. I'm not sure if this is a cost-saving measure or it's popular with the usual, earthy type of people that hang out on the Drive. You know who I'm talking about... The burrito was big - it was more like a salad wrap than a burrito. It wasn't cheap, good or filling - people that like this place seem to *LOVE* this place. Why? read more

Once again, this place fails to impress me. This place is so not authentic and the prices are so high. They skimp on the ingredients like a few micro strands of chicken, a tiny teeny amount of black beans, a few teaspoons of rice.... the wraps are so small, and the burritos taste funny. You'll spend almost eight dollars for a burrito and you'll still feel hungry. Red Burrito is for suckers. I feel like a sucker tourist in Tijuana Mexico when I eat here. read more

Yesterday, I went to the "car free day "on The Driver. This was the first place I went into. I ordered the Red Burrito with spicy beef and I had all the fixings! Cheese and the guacamole were extra, but who cares! go for it. My Burrito was so huge! the lady could just barely fold it and wrap it. The best burrito I have ever eaten. I also tired a Mexican milk drink with my burrito. I forgot the name of the drink, but it was sweet and I could taste cinnamon and other spices. All good. Cheers!!!! read more

$6.04 for a giant and delicious veggie burrito. no extra charge for the guac (only veggie burrito) service is friendly, the place is cute, my burrito always great. No question, I'll be back read more

Mediocre burrito, friendly staff. Only one size of burrito available. There were two chicken options, one beef, shrimp and vegetarian but no pork. Cheese was extra and it was the dusty- from the store bought bag type of cheese. Guac was also extra. Overpriced for what it is, you can find a better burrito at whole foods in kits or chipotle on Robson. read more

Tried for the first time yesterday, really awesome food. Tried the spicy beef burrito and hibiscus drink of some sort... Yummy. The burrito was huge and waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay lots of flavours stuffed in there and the person couldn't even wrap it properly ... which is my opinion is worth every $5.96 that they were charging. The place is nice and cosy - there were 3 of us and we fit just nicely on the round tables there. My other 2 friends had chicken burrito ... which were also yummy. Definitely worth going back whenever I am in town. read more

I was craving a burrito and thought Red Burrito would deliver. But sorry to say it wasn't my favorite. I used to get them all the time in San Francisco and I had lots to choose from down there. Sorry Red you didn't make the mark. My grilled chicken was tasteless and some of my rice was crunchy. If it wasn't for the hot sauce I would have just thought I was eating Taco Bell. read more

Finally got around to trying this place after walking by it for years. Wish I had kept walking. Got the basic chicken burrito, after tax over $8...WOW! If it had been good, i probably would have been ok with the price, but it was pretty gross which makes the price hard to swallow (no pun intended) . Chicken was hard dry bits and did not even resemble chicken, rice also had had hard dried out grains that were actually hurting my teeth. Overall SUPER disappointed, will not revisit ever again. Had I not been seriously hung over and super hungry, I would have said something to the staff. read more

So yes, full disclosure I come from San Francisco so yes I know what the hell incredible mexican food tastes like. That, however is not why I am giving the ol' two stars treatment to the Red Burrito. I (like a number of folks who have reviewed) have noted a distinct lack of quality and quantity as the years have gone by. The portions haven gotten significantly smaller while the price remains the same. And what the heck happened to the Cholula hot sauce at every table? Man, I miss that hot sauce. Now they have one single squeeze bottle of some damn thing. I am not sure what they have done ingredient wise (more cost saving measures I am sure) but this is not the same place I came into two years ago or so. read more

A great place to grab a quick and tasty bite. Red Burrito offers healthier options than what you would find at a typical fast food joint while still being very satisfying. I had the burrito with baja fish which was fabulous. I like food very spicy (like a party in my mouth!) so I liberally applied hot sauce so it was perfectly warm. The atmosphere is what you would expect from a fast food Mexican joint. Nothing special but you probably won't spend more than 15min there so who really cares. I would definitely go back next time I am in the hood. read more

Worth what you pay for. Can realistically split a burrito between two people.

The veggie burrito I had, wrapped in a nice red tortilla and stuffed with rice, beans, corn, guac, tomatoes and salsa verde was very tasty. Definitely hit the spot. $7 was a bit much I think but I'd go back for my burrito fix again. I ate in, on a window bench, sun pouring through. Only thing I'd do different is make them keep the styrofoam plate they gave me. Too wasteful, and you don't really need it if you wrap the burrito in foil properly, keeping all those yummy veggie juices inside. read more

I gotta say, Qdoba has really spoiled me. A semi-fast food place that makes a great burrito. Others just pale by comparison. Red Burrito is such a place. The burrito is ok. I got mine spicy. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing that great either. Red Burrito is a place to stop at if you are already on Commercial Drive. It is not a place to go out of your way for, though. read more

I can understand why this place gets the low ratings that it does, however, considering that it is Saturday night and finding any place reasonable on the Drive to eat and talk your best friend without having music blaring in the background and or annoying drunk people around you (plus a 30 - 45 minute wait), this was the only place. It was very quiet and for good reason. It's not the best Mexican place in the city, however, it accomplished what it needed on a dime. My best friend and I shared a plate of spicy chicken (not that spicy) tacos, tortilla soup and some chips and salsa....none of which were high quality foods but we were filled with no issue. read more

Red Burrito is amazing. Friendly staff, great prices. I had the Spicy Beef, on Tomato tortilla and guacamole. Tasty. Best burrito I have had in Canada read more

My wife and I have highly positive memories about this cafe. At the end of a work week, one of us will drive, bike, or walk over for take out. I'll have the chicken and she'll have the vegan (vegetarian, no dairy). The options are straightforward. The staff is friendly. Exactly what we like in a takeout Mexican cafe. read more

They charge a flat debit card fee of .10 no matter how small/large the purchase. Automatic one star. And a full dollar for adding cheese? Even aside from that prices are high here. Food and service are meh. read more

A whole bunch of meh. Not impressed by the downtown location either, but I was so hungry I was getting lightheaded so decided to give it another shot. There's no magic in this burrito -- I think all the ingredients came from Super Valu across the street. The taco soup frankly tasted as though it came from a can. The staff are nice enough, but the food is not up to scratch. read more

I wasn't expecting much and it was pretty awful. Had the chicken tamale and it was horrible. Beans and rice that came with it were inedible. Daughter had the chicken quesadilla for a whopping $9.75. She could only eat one slice because it was so greasy. Only decent thing was the Horchata. Never again. Can't understand why this place is busy. read more

The vegetarian burrito is a stand-by for me when I'm running late and not prepared to eat at home. It's good, affordable, and does the job.

They give you a nice sized burrito, in terms of taste sometimes it's nice a juicy and sometimes it's a little on the blander side. Prices are a little up there especially when you want to start adding cheese or guacamole to your burrito. Then again it's normal for burritos you would probably end up paying around the same you do at Chipotle. Either way not a bad burrito. read more

Cheap, delicious and fairly healthy to boot. Great for lunch or dinner on the go.

Over all, i found my chicken burrito to be dry and bland. The serving was small, and i walked away dissatisfied, Maybe I went on an off day, but i do not think i will be returning. read more

I was excited to find a good burrito shop in Vancouver and sadly this place did not live up to the hype. The burrito was overstuffed, mushy and not heated well. It was not flavourful and way too expensive for what I received. It is okay in a pinch but not a place I would frequent often. read more

A great place if you want something quick and cheap on the go. Giant, fat burritos in a foil wrap that make them convenient to take anywhere. The staff are friendly and fast. read more

Fresh, fast, simple flavours, many dietary choices to suit all tastes. Great service, good value AND free parking out back. I'll be back again! read more
