Friendly service. We go out of our way to get their burritos. The side salsa is amazing. So is the house queso. read more

It's an OK lunch spot. I think if you don't have much to compare this to... then it's a good (try) at Mexican food... but not really. Cozy vibe, few wooden tables inside and outside. The staff are very nice tho. I've had their bowls 2x now. Separate occasions during work travel... and I am left disappointed (where is the seasoning? Paprika? The green chili pepper? Pickled jalapenos? Anything?) both times. Thinking, well maybe it was a bad day the first time... good attempt with pickled red onions; welp same result on the 2nd try... needless to say, I didn't go back on my future work visits. It gets busy, so the locals love it. I would say lower your expectations and have hot sauce in your own bag. Or pick up from Chipotle instead if going for the burrito bowl. read more

Nice spot in downtown Bennington. The inside is roomy and huge. The menu is limited, but what they have is pretty good. The street taco was quite good but it was too wet. They have a $7.99 taco deal that includes 2 tacos and a drink. In today's economy, that's hard to beat. The service was excellent, the young lady couldn't be more friendly read more

Had beef burrito and a pit bowl. The food is consistently good. Stop in if you are in town. The place is nothing fancy. They have enough tables to eat in. In the summer there's outdoor seating as well. Stop by when in town. read more

Phenomenal! I'm not sure I've had tastier tacos, and I'm from Arizona! Fresh ingredients, delicious marinade, and sauces!

It's not traditional tacos and burritos but for an area where Mexican food is hard to find, it fills a niche. Kind of similar to a major chain. I ordered takeout, a burrito bowl, "elotes", and a side of their spicy salsa. The burrito bowl is good, the "elotes" is really esquites without mayo or tajin, and the side of salsa (not very spicy but had a good flavor) really helped. It all ended up being about $25 when ordered online. Pretty pricey. Food was ready on time and I just picked it up from the shelf. read more

I have gone here a few times in the past--but yesterday was bad. It had a foul odor when I entered. I got a chicken burrito made by a crabby girl who did not smile but had the line "that's and upcharge" When she asked if I wanted rice I glanced down and it was all crusty on top like it had been sitting there for a long time so I said no rice (even though that is the bulk of what I really wanted). There is no "down charge" for not getting awful looking items FYI. She then placed the chicken on the burrito and then decided it was too much and took half of it off when the main guy walked over. It turned out to be the smallest burrito I have ever gotten there and with take and a $1 tip for the crabby girl it was $15. Maybe because corn was an upcharge. I brought it home to eat because the place seemed gross. THe chicken was so dry I had to spit half of it out. I was there at 11:45AM it should not be dry? & crusty rice? I have been sick and in the bathroom all night now. I can't say for sure it was that burrito of course. I will not go back. I understand why it was so slow in there now. read more

Super friendly staff, fresh food & clean. The pork tacos were flavorful & the queso/chips were awesome. read more

The Avocado Pit - "Taco Deal" pork with all the fixings (expect the cilantro sauce) - Mexican Near Me - Bennington, Vermont

The place looked small on outside but actually was very big inside. Luckily we got in line when we did, because the line as we saw could get very long as we were eating at the picnic tables they have outside. It was delicious and my friend enjoyed her burrito as well. The service was fast. We saw on Facebook sometimes they post specials but that wasn't the case that I coiluld see on the Friday we were there. If you are out leaf-pepping in Bennington or just taking a road trip I would stop in. read more

Great street tacos, guacamole and chips, salsas and limeade which includes awesome Vermont corn tortillas!

Good burritos, generous sizes served fast. Basically high quality fast and healthy Mexican food with a nice sit down area. Prices are reasonable read more

I enjoy eating at the Avocado Pit as they have great food at a great price. They also have delivery options and order to go options.

Very tasty, I went with Kickin Chicken Burrito, which btw if your not good with spice be careful, as my wife found out, but boy was it good. Choices was kind of like a chipotle with not as many decisions to make which can be a good thing. Ingredients were fresh and you can taste it. Well worth your time if your looking for a quick lunch or dinner. Would recommend. read more

The Avocado Pit - the entrance to the restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Bennington, Vermont

Service was friendly patient with a slow, large order from a family unfamiliar with their store. Restaurant was very clean and bigger on the inside than it looks from the road. Prices were reasonable. One person got some kind of veggie bow or salad that had almost a whole avocado on it and the avocado was perfect ripeness. But our other food was only okay. If you have a hankering for Chipotle like fast casual this is your best bet locally. But it seemed like some things were over seasoned while other things lacked --I missed the bright notes of lime in the guacamole and felt like the salsa could use some cilantro. read more

We stopped in here on a whim for a quick lunch on Saturday. The ingredients were so fresh (they were chopping them on the back counter while we were ordering). Great flavor. Well worth our trip. My husband had a burrito and I had a burrito bowl. read more

The Avocado Pit - Burrito bowl - Mexican Near Me - Bennington, Vermont

First time visit Friday, the taco daily deal is a good value hit the spot looking forward to trying the deconstructed burrito salad style

You can tell that everything is made in-house. The service was excellent, there was ample room for dining, and the prices were very fair. We both had a meal and a drink for $20 total, which is hard to come by. Vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options. Awesome spot. read more

My favorite spot to grab a bite for lunch. The burritos and chips are perfect and the taco specials are so delicious.

My brother, niece, and myself had lunch at The Avocado Pit on south street. Big and clean with delicious lunch selections. The two taco lunch special was wonderful. Should have had the burrito that my brother ordered. Awesome place. read more

Very spacious and great vibe. I got the pit bowl (cute name) and it's phenomenal - savory and A+ portion size. Would highly recommend to anyone passing through! read more

Kids behind the counter don't wear masks and scratch at their face before making burritos, really revolting. Loud music, odd spare and hard decor. Food's not bad, and it's great to have at least some place with spice in Bennington, but gosh. Yuck. read more

Really good! I had the pork burrito and the wife had the chicken burrito. Both excellent. Had the Big Kick and the avocado salsa with them. The Big Kick has a big kick! If you like hot this is what you want. If not then stay away. The avacado purée salsa (it's not what they call it but I can't remember the name) has great flavor and a nice bite, but not over the top heat. Highly recommend! Go have takeout for lunch or dinner and support these guys! read more

Excellent food. I ordered Kickin Chicken Burretto. Delicious! Very clean kitchen and friendly fast service. Inside and outside dining

My spicy kickin' chicken burrito was yummy, but I won't lie the prices are a bit high for Bennington. Workers were very kind but one was maskless which I do not like, especially with high cases right now. The chips were fried fresh, interior was cute and clean too. Overall, I would come back, but they definitely need to mask everyone up! read more

Efficient fresh easy tasty Mexican burrito bowl at a reasonable price. Clean environment. Friendly people.
