I hardly take domestic flights in YYZ. However, on my recent trip I was heading to the east coast and experienced this part of the airport and had my first Smoke's Burritorie before I saw the reviews. Caveat my expectations won't be high. I don't expect authenticity or it being cheap... c'mon IT IS airport food. Certainly I think they deserve better than 1.8 stars that they currently have now. I just want to say the burrito we had was quite good. We added some guac, which was a generous serving on top and it was tasty. I like that it was packaged really well so I can bring it into the plane and enjoy it. I did not get sick from eating it like some other reviewers in the past has noted. A-okay in my books. read more

Smoke's Burritorie - Pre flight meal - Tex-Mex Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Chicken was flavourless and mushy. Asked whether it was real or plant based and was assured it was real. Texture was off-putting. Spicy rice tasted like plain rice doused in Tabasco. Bad even for airport food. read more

Taco bell has better food and better prices. Very low quality ingredients. Cannot be included as mexican food.

Hot tip. Don't have a burrito before a transatlantic flight unless you have a constitution of steal. The meat here also comes in bags and is prewarmed. Don't do it to yourself!!!!! read more

Smoke's Burritorie - I ate it... - Tex-Mex Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

DO NOT. DO NOT. DO NOTTTTTTTTTTT EAT HERE UNLESS YOU WANT FOOD POISONING!!!! I just found this creature in my burrito (after I bit into it and tasted something bitter, yup.) All the staff had to say was "Sorry, can I make you another?!" I rightfully got a refund and told them that I hope they would be disposing of all the food, which it didn't seem like they were considering as they were already justifying how the bug could not have been in the meat, beans or rice and therefore would not be throwing those items out I have no idea if they or what they ended up tossing out... so save yourself from eating a bug burrito! read more

Smoke's Burritorie - a small insect on the carpet - Tex-Mex Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

For the price of a burrito bowl, you could go out and get a decent meal with more umph in flavour. Granted, this is in the airport and the prices are jacked up. The chicken meat was the tiniest portion, and the flavour was quite bland. While I wouldn't give any stars for the food, the service was quite lovely and orders were made quickly so that passengers could go on their way and make their flights. read more

Smoke's Burritorie - The saddest two slices of chicken breast in the top right corner. - Tex-Mex Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

I absolutely love Smoke's Poutinerie and have been patiently waiting to try Smoke's Burritorie since it's launch a couple of years ago (somehow this was my first go at it). This place is located in terminal 3 at Pearson International Airport and is pretty easy to find. It had a decent size line when we approached but it moved at a pretty good pace. The only reason I actually got in line was because I really wanted to try the special chicken and waffle burrito they had advertised on a giant screen but sadly.....they did not have any, which made me pretty sad. I ended up ordering a steak burrito instead with rice, beans, veggies, and mild sauce on it. The burrito came to about $9 and was not enough to leave me hating myself. The burrito itself left much to be desired, sadly. I can't put my finger on it but as I was eating it I was just wishing I walked away and gotten something else. The steak wasn't bad, the beans and rice weren't bad, it just lacked something I can't put my finger on. If you are looking for a standard, no frills burrito then this is going to give you what you want. Sadly, I don't see myself coming back for another meal in the future. read more

Smoke's Burritorie - Burrito boy. - Tex-Mex Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

I usually don't do off the cuff reviews so I let this sit for a week before I came back to do a review. Smoke's is killing it's brand with this location. Well, I don't know that for sure as I haven't been to any others, but I can't see the others being worse than this one. The menus are crazy, the food goes by so quickly, it makes it hard to focus on each item and make a selection. However, annoying as this is, my main issue is with the service. A fellow traveler and I stood waiting for someone to take our order for a full 5 minutes. At one point, three minutes in a lady came out of the back, looked directly at us and returned to the back room. I would have walked away at that point, but the lineups were too long at the other establishments, to make a move elsewhere. So we waited. After 5 minutes, an employee emerged, and then a second and then a third. None of them said hello, none of the apologized for the wait, none of them explained what they were doing. I waited, patiently, while the person in front of me was served by one of the staff, the other two ignoring the lineup. When my turn came, I was asked "What do you want?" I gave my order and as this is a burrito, many other questions were to follow. Each question came with an annoyed look, a quick stab at the food and a piddling amount added to my bowl. Flick, flick, flick, she couldn't care less what she was doing and that she was working in the service industry. After paying for it, I sat with my daughter (who luckily, got Chinese food from across the hall), and I dug in to my burrito bowl. It was bland and a small quantity of food, including the chicken in which I got three small strips. I'm sure this is all down to how this was prepared. This kind of service is unacceptable. Perhaps the airport should revoke their license. Maybe they won't have to. If things don't change here, they'll go out of business. Perhaps this is why all the other restaurants on the concourse had crazy lineups, but this had none. read more

It's a fast food place with good prices in Pearson Airport but I found that the food wasn't very fresh at all. Everything at the preparation counter had the appearance that it had been sitting there for a while. We had a burrito bowl. While the bowl itself is large, generally they don't fill it up much so to get value you'll need to ask for extra rice and beans as filler or be disappointed about your 7.49 purchase. Sour cream bottle top had a fancy tri-squirt top to make the bowl look Instagram perfect. Guacamole is free, but cheese and extra meat are extra. Ultimately I think this place is ok, if only because there isn't a Chipotle in the airport. read more

Smoke's Burritorie - Exterior - Tex-Mex Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

4 stars exclusively for the Fried Chicken & Waffle Breakfast Burrito. It also has scrambled eggs, bacon, and maple bacon dripped inside of it in addition to the chicken and waffles, so it was surprisingly filling and tasty for just over $10 after tax. Given the giant lineup at the neighbouring Tim Hortons versus how quickly I was ordering and eating, for the early morning factor I'm a fan of this. read more

I ordered the pulled pork 10-inch burrito for $8.49 plus taxes. Meat portion was slightly below average. The burrito tasted fine, mind you, quality wise it's below Burrito Boyz big time. The rice they put in my burrito was the worst part of my experience....dry and hard (must have been leftover rice) but it hurt my teeth when I bit into it. I wouldn't recommend this place on that reason alone! read more

Smoke's Burritorie - Hard dry rice :( - Tex-Mex Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

When I saw this place, I was super excited to try their burrito bowls. For $7.49 you can't go wrong. I ordered a veggie bowl, with cilantro rice, black beans, refried beans, lettuce, salsa, corn, coleslaw and avocado from a squirt bottle. Yes a squirt bottle. I questioned the quality of the ingredients after I saw that. I took it to go. By the time I was able to sit down to eat it, all the ingredients were sloppy. Not so fresh after all. I still enjoy smoke's poutinerie, but not their burritorie. read more

This place has so much potential to get 5 stars from me but the staff wasn't very friendly. The woman working either hated her job or was very sad, maybe both? Either way, she made me feel almost guilty for ordering food. Not the service I wanted for an 11 dollar burrito. The food was delicious though. Next time I'm at this airport I'll definitely give this place another chance at 5 stars. read more

Bought a chicken and waffle burrito. Would have rather went hungry than eat that shit

It's pretty average. While waiting for my flight in the morning I for some reason didn't feel like Tim Hortons (as a fellow Canadian I was also shocked at myself). Looking around and saw someone else eating a breakfast burrito so I thought why not? Burrito was pretty standard, you get to choose your type of meat and toppings and they grill it. It wasn't terrible but it wasn't the amazing either, just enough to get me by. Plus side after my flight I had no upset stomach or diarrhea and it kept me full for the 2 hours it took to get me to Winnipeg. Yes it is a bit pricey but then again I expect that from everything in Pearson airport. So yeah for an average burrito it hit the spot. read more

Poor quality chicken - below that of subway. No salad on the menu - had to custom create it. Bad selection of veggies. Bad selection of salsas. How the hell does this exist w/ Chipotle and Qdoba in the market? Oh I know; it's in an airport. Abolish this and replace it w/ one of the market leaders. Also the service wasn't very good - surly attitude. read more

Good deal on the children's burritos. 3 tiny ones for a reasonable price, but they are very very plain. Only meat and cheese. Impressive that they can roll those burros so small. read more

Not the best, but beggars can't be choosers when you're on an airport food hunt. Happy this was at least an option for travellers, but for the price, I expect a bit more protein in my bowl. read more

Do you enjoy waiting 20min for the worst burrito of your life? Well boy do I have news for you! So, it's a burrito place in an airport, wasn't expecting 5 stars. Two people working, one person takes your order and then another puts the cold toppings on and panini presses it. Girl taking the order takes 5 people's orders then makes the hot portion of the burritos. Problem here is she works at a snails pace, goes into the back for minutes at a time and forgets what she went back for. I grabbed a soda when I was 4 people away from the register and by the time I got my burrito the soda was warm. Nothing here is remotely Mexican in flavor. I asked for hot sauce and got frank's hot sauce smothered all over it. They have guac on the menu but they didn't have it, same for jalapeños. This place was straight up nasty, slow and not worth the time wasted. read more

Worst service I've ever had at a restaurant, fast food or otherwise. The staff were both surly and indifferent. It was dinner time and they had run out of both guacamole and salsa. No apologies, but lots of anger at management - but taking it out on the customers. Not cool. read more

Even if you're starving, stay away from this place! Nasty is an understatement. Ordered a chicken rice bowl and ended up losing my appetite once I removed the lid of the bowl. Chicken seemed synthetic, cilantro rice almost chipped my tooth from how hard it was, just plain gross. And don't get me started with the customer service.... I'll just leave it at that. read more

Food is pretty good, decent size burrito for the price for in an airport. The staff when I was there was not pleasant, seemed like you were bothering them by placing an order. read more

Absolutely horrendous! They must only stay in business due to steady flow of airport traffic! They make you pay first because if you built it first, they might lose all their business. The chicken we had didn't even seem fully cooked. Just avoid at all costs... read more

Pretty decent burritos but the two times I've been at the airport location the girls are the worst. They seem so unhappy and are not all interested in making burritos. They seriously need a tune up. read more
