    Big Burrito
    Jennifer C.

    THE BEST TACO PLACE IN TOWN!! I just love the flavor of their ground beef oh man...and the HOUSE SALSA?!?!????? Sooooooo delicious!!!!!!! We buy their salsa when we make tacos at home too We usually get "loaded tacos" with ground beef, sour cream and cheese and we get house salsa & mild sauce to add on top of our tacos!! It is so delicious & addicting lol Thank you for amazing tacos, BIG BURRITO!

    Big beef burrito and side of rice.

    Best burrito around. I drive from GR just to eat here at least once a month. The red hot sauce is fire!!! I get the red sauce Togo.

    This place was recommended to us so thought we'd try. Inside is nice and clean. Prices are fair. We ordered a carne asada or steak Classic Burrito and a Big Burrito. They are big but missing a few ingredients. It's more of a Lettuce Burrito for us because it's packed with lettuce. Hardly any meat in it. I wish there's rice and more meat. There was no salsa served at the side. The upside, we like that the tortilla is cooked and has a bit of crunch. Would we go back? Most likely not.

    Like a couple of other Mexican restaurants, I like the one after having a couple of drinks in Kalamazoo downtown. Tacos are great...chorizo is phenomenal and the service and attention are great! I just met the new manager Luis, and very customer service oriented trying to meet your needs. Really nice guy!

    People who say The Big Burrito is only post-bar food are wrong. Yes, it's greasy. But many of our finest foods are. This was a frequent stop for me during my college days and I recently returned for the first time in a long time. The place seems to have gotten a serious makeover. It looks less like the back-alley kitchen it really is, and more like a legit restaurant. I will say that the "big burrito" I ordered seemed much lighter than I remembered. Perhaps they're skimping on ingredients to save money. No matter. From the crispy tortilla to the gooey cheese, this is a wonderful indulgence. If it makes you feel better to say it's only good when you're drunk, that's fine. Say whatever you want. It's fun to go slumming every now and then. I've only enjoyed Big Burrito while stone sober... and I make no apologies. I will shout it from the mountaintops. I love it. It also seems they've added a bar since my last visit. Now you have no excuse not to go. Also, you stand a better-than-average chance at being shot or run over while in this parking lot late at night, so that's always fun. Viva El Big Burrito!

    I love there tacos! Very good guacamole. Much better food than I'd expected from a chain restaurant. Good tamales too.

    This place is fantastic! Authentic Mexican fare in the heart…read moreof small town America. And GOOD authentic food! Nice dining area with views of a large koi pond and landscape. Service is always amazing and we're always greeted with a friendly smile. I love their chili verde or carnitas plate. Hubs loves the bar menu and the steak with French fries or the taco trio platter. Enjoy!

    3.5 stars is probably a more accurate response for me. A 3 indicates that it's acceptable and that…read moreI intend to give it another try before abandoning. A 4 indicates that it's good and I will definitely be back. Food: was pretty good leaning slight closer to more authentic Mexican food than many of similar places in Portage and Kalamazoo. Our table had a burrito, salad, and street tacos. Everyone seem to enjoy the quality and taste. See attached picture of my Burrito Ranchero. The included guacamole, picante, and sour cream are extremely small. Service: expected a little more responsiveness. It wasn't really busy for a Monday dinner seating. But many of our extra requested food items ie fresh jalapenos, cheese, and salsa came later with meal getting cold. Our server had no sense of urgency or hospitality. Atmosphere: We liked the seating which was private enough to have an enjoyable conversation but open enough to observe other around us enjoying themselves. Overall a very pleasant clean place with a warm fun vibe.

    I recently learned this was a regular spot of my dad's, was there almost weekly…read more Got to try it for the first time. We had a large party and it was catered in. The corn tacos were okay, hard to eat with the shredded chicken. Chips and salsa are ok. Guacamole would have made it even better, as the shells broke after a bite and got soggy from the liquid. The chicken itself wasn't bad, not super flavorful. The queso was quite runny, purely liquid. Some onions or cilantro would have been nice condiment adds.

    I've been spending time with my best friend up in Delton Michigan and she said that we had to try…read morethis restaurant! She and her son both love it and I am so glad that we came here! It's a fun casual and extremely colorful little restaurant. They can accommodate both small parties and large groups. Smells amazing the instant you walk in and are greeted by the super friendly staff! The menu is massive which is why I didn't take pictures of all of it, but it is available on their website. She and her son usually both go with chimichangas so who was I to question it? I chose the steak fajita chimichanga and oh my goodness it was some of the best Mexican food I've ever had in my life! We loved it so much that we ordered it to go again a couple days later! Whether you're dining in or taking it home, you cannot go wrong when you choose Pure Mex! If you're ever in the area make sure you stop in!
