    After 4+ years, this is still one of my go-tos for great burritos. The tortillas are amazing, and the various burritos are made fairly consistently (occasionally the ratios are a little off, but mostly they produce them consistently.) Chile relleno burrito with side of salsa verde remains my favorite, although they run out of those around/before noon most days. The carne asada, add queso and pico, is my second choice. (And I think the picadillo is excellent if you like potatoes more than I do.) I definitely prefer the salsa verde to the salsa roja. Both are spicy but I think the green has more depth of flavor. Service is always efficient and polite. It's mostly a drive-thru with a small outside seating area.

    Been craving an egg and chorizo burrito. Rita's did not disappoint! So delicious and nice full burrito. The service was friendly through drive thru. Cute retro looking from the outside. Can't wait to try some other items!

    CHILE VERDE

    Easily my favorite burrito spot I've found in El Paso. Easy drive thru, crazy good tortillas, and actually flavorful meat. I will definitely be coming back! I ordered 3 styles of burritos: - Red Chile Burrito - Chile Verde - Barbacoa (the best) I've heard a lot about the red Chile Burrito but in a all honesty I thought it was the weakest one. The red Chile was not super flavorful and had a bit of a strange taste to it. The Barbacoa Burrito with the green salsa was incredible. Probably the best I've had in El Paso. One issue I had with all of them was that the meats were a little dry. The salsa made up for it but they could definitely use some more juices in the meat. Overall: Decently priced, flavorful, fresh tortillas, with ample meat and weight to each burrito. I loved it and will come back soon!

    The perfect little burritos with fresh tortillas. We were looking for something exactly like this, saw it on Yelp and the outcome was delicious! My family and I shared all different kinds of burritos so we could try them all. Here's our list, first being best: 1. Chile relleno 2. Red chile brisket 3. Picadillo 4. Egg and chorizo (add cheese) 5. Bean and cheese 6. Bacon and egg (add cheese) All of them were extremely good so it's really just your preference. We got the rajas/hatch chile and it wasn't anything special but that can always determine on the chile too. Our favorite part was the fresh tortillas. Also, it's a drive through! Lastly, red sauce is spicier than the green but both had great flavor. Ask for extra!

    Going to give them 5 stars - 4 on the burritos and 1 on the great customer service. I love their breakfast burritos and their Chile verde burrito! The red Chile brisket also tastes great but the meat was chewy last time. Wish they'd let it slow cook another hour or so for a softer bite, but maybe that's how the locals like it. I went once going east, and made sure to stop by on my return trip. I'll be back again soon.

    Soggy, sad RCB.

    I hate writing subpar reviews, especially for small local business that I really want to love and support.... But. I've been to Rita's once before. It was great! I had a carne asada burrito that I added beans, cheese, and onions to. It was fantastic, juicy, and flavorful. I recommended Rita's to my family and friends. I dreamed of Rita's burritos. I went to Rita's again today. I've been craving it for weeks and was SO excited to get a carne asada burrito and try the RCB. I went through the drive thru and was planning to take it home to eat, like I did last time. Service was quick and friendly, I placed my bag on my seat (rookie mistake, I know) and went on my way. I took out the carne asada burrito on my way home to eat half of it and it wasn't the same as I remembered. Great tortilla, yes, but the meat was really dry and salty. I took out the RCB to try a bite and I immediately had juice from the burrito leak out of the foil and onto my legs and my shirt. I went to grab the bag to put the burrito back in it to eat at home and the saw the salsa sitting on the seat. Uh oh. I looked at the bag and it had completely soaked through the paper. I immediately moved it to the floor, where the bag busted open. There was juice from the burrito all over my seat. When I got home, I went to open the RCB and found the tortilla soggy on both ends. I tried cutting off the soggy pieces, but the juice from the burrito had already gotten into the rest of the tortilla, which made it really soft. I wanted to love it, and I tried to eat it anyway, but it ended up going in the trash The flavor was good, though it was really spicy. All in all, I couldn't get past the sogginess. It was sad. I'm not sure if this was just a one-off where someone didn't drain the meat properly before moving it to the tortilla, but I was surely disappointed. I was also super sad about the carne asada because the first time I ate it, it left me craving and dreaming of Rita's often. I'm sure the paper bags are made from recycled paper and are a way of being more sustainable, and I applaud that effort. But I really, really wish I had had a plastic bag in this instance. I'd suggest draining the meat more and putting the burritos with more juice in them in a small plastic bag inside the paper sack.

    Amazingly good flautas for an incredibly reasonable price. (They have other dishes too, but that's…read morewhat they are known for!) Beans and rice on the side are optional / modest extra charge - they are usually very good and worth adding if you're hungry enough. My favorite sauce is the Chipotle. It's got heat as it's also creamy...I would call it medium (I like spicy food.) If you're getting them to go, you might want the sauce and toppings on the side. They usually ask about that, but occasionally they might forget. Service is usually friendly and efficient even when they are busy. Your food is made to order, so it's fast but not instantaneous. Allow 5-10 minutes for pickup most of the time. The dining room is medium-sized. I would say it's a place to eat and go, not stay and linger.

    Stopped at El Taquito for breakfast during our move from WA to TX, and it was such a great choice…read more The staff was incredibly friendly, and the whole place had that warm, local-favorite vibe. We ordered the flautas with chipotle sauce and the chilaquiles with half red and half green sauce. The chilaquiles were absolutely amazing. We added a runny egg since we couldn't do chicken, and it gave the dish extra flavor and a good boost of protein. The flautas (which I'd honestly describe more as taquitos dorados) were crunchy and tasty. We liked the chipotle sauce that came with them, but we actually loved dipping them into the chilaquile sauce even more. Overall, it was a great spot to grab breakfast before hitting the road again for many more hours. Highly recommend!

    I think solid is a perfect word for this place. Not the best Mexican food I've ever had, but not…read morethe worst. I bumped it up to four stars for the super friendly service and the excellent aguas frescas. We got there late, about an hour before closing and they were literally trying to get rid of the aguas for free. I guess they have to dump it if they don't use it all. It was close to our hotel so we gave it a try. Portion sizes are good. The taco platter comes with six tacos! I had the flautas Chinampa which came with four beef flautas, beans, rice, and salad. I forgot, the taco platter even came with a baked potato. Prices were excellent. We had gone to McDonald's in the morning and spent more. They also cave us frijoles charros for free. Not sure if this was standard or if they were also trying to get rid of it. I would return for the service and the convenience, but if you're looking for life changing Mexican cuisine, it's not here. What you get is a good amount of decent food at a good price served by great people.
