Never disappointed with the tacos. I hate going out to eat and being disappointed with your dinner. Big burrito always hits the spot, good prices and friendly staff. read more

My son has been ordering the Big Burrito for years. Today, I called and asked to order the same as he usually gets. Guy said he only sees the tostada bowl ( which we only order on Thursday) so he said Classic is what he gets. I will now make sure I know what to order as I have no expectations that they have record of past orders. read more

THE BEST TACO PLACE IN TOWN!! I just love the flavor of their ground beef oh man...and the HOUSE SALSA?!?!????? Sooooooo delicious!!!!!!!

It is so delicious & addicting lol Thank you for amazing tacos, BIG BURRITO! read more

I've always loved this place. Real food instead of generic chipotle/qdoba. The green/tomatillo salsa is amazing and I'd buy gallons of it if I could. Meat burritos are good but also appreciate their veggie burrito. Usually go late at night but it's just a chill spot that you order at the front and grab your own table. read more

The food is always good and the service quick, a great lunch place. Great Mexican food at a great price.

I ordered from here a few years ago and it was terrible. Was so disappointed that I tossed out most of my order. Yesterday my daughters brought me a beef burrito and a few tacos. Stellar. I don't know what I was brought before but yesterday's order was excellent. I will definitely be ordering again read more

Summer staff is always inexperienced on this side of town, so I didn't keep my hopes up, but was still very disappointed. Walked into a cash-counter with partially prepped food items sitting out and the store wreaking of dirty mop water. The whole staff was huddled in the kitchen eating - which is understandable at this time because the store's dining room had just closed. However, when I made eye-contact and greeted them, they not only took another couple minutes to come speak to me, they also didn't wash their hands. The order I was picking up (1 tamale, 1 steak taco) had been put in nearly forty minutes before I showed up and even though the tamales turned out to be out of stock, the staff waited until I arrived to tell me instead of just calling and offering an alternative. Not a big deal, so I opted to swap the unavailable item for a duplicate of my steak taco and I only waited about two minutes for them to make it. I got home (I live two blocks away) to find that my entire order was completely inedible. The tortillas and lettuce were soggy, the tomatoes and cheese were waterlogged and the sour cream had separated. How that's possible when one of the tacos was freshly made to substitute my tamale informs me that this store isn't turning over the prepped food that goes unsold all day. That's a food safety violation for perishable produce and dairy. Its the next day and for whatever reason, the difference in price for the out of stock tamale (it costs more than the taco I got) on my order has not been applied to my card. I've been working in restaurants for most of my life, so I'm being sincere when I say that this store's staffing is being handled by a management team that clearly didn't teach those kids proper food safety, nor professional customer service. Never coming back. read more

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. read more

The Big Burrito - Big beef burrito and side of rice. - Mexican Near Me - Kalamazoo, Michigan

I gave this place a shot twice. The first time, I had it, I had the steak burrito. The meat is almost sliced like a cheesesteak. And the flavor was a bit off. So I called it an "off day" and tried it again. Again, the same thing and I think it's just the recipe. The workers are super nice though. I would definitely say that the clientele is college students. read more

Good Mexican food cheap and consistent, and it tastes good ! I took my wife here after a friend recommended it and we have been back many times I love the Big Quesadilla with steak, wife loved the grilled veggie version. I could eat there almost daily if there were not so many other cool restaurants. This in in my top 3 Mexican places to eat. Oh and don't forget to sign up for the VIP program. Lets you earn points for free food. read more

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. read more

The Big Burrito - Steak Classic Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Kalamazoo, Michigan

this morning was in town from Stirgus Mich wife had doctor appointment so we killed time till 11 o'clock when they open. I ordered two big burritos got back home to Stirgus and i think it was the worst burritos i have had from there couldn't taste the cheese or the sour cream at all i was living in Kalamazoo when they opened their doors lived in Kalamazoo over 46 years. Called to complain talked to the manager and all she said was that we just opened, and they were getting everything out and apologized. I told her not looking for reimbursement just letting you know and at the end of the conversation she seemed to be short with me . So i guess don't get there before noon. read more

The Best Tamales since I lived in Phoenix. If you like heat in your Mexican food, go with the green sauce. The red also has a kick, but both are flavorful in addition to spicy Didn't love the rice or refried beans, but both sides offer some authenticity I haven't tasted since Phoenix. This place is not cheap ($3.29/ burritto), but the tamales are really worth it read more

I'm done with this restaurant I understand the cost has gone up on Product, have no problem paying more $$$, but when your order is not done correctly why even bother, because my order was not complete my food will now be cold when I eat it $30 for a to go when you get home it's wrong, won't be ordering any more from here and I have been a customer for the last 15 years, but will spend $$ else where, the problem is, its lazy workers hopping someone else did their job enjoy BB read more

Can't complain. Mexican food in Michigan will never hold up to my roots in southern Arizona, but for the Midwest they do a decent job at the price point. Online ordering makes it easy. read more

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! read more

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! read more

A staple for good burritos in Kzoo. Great portions. Delicious sauce. Lots of items made from scratch. Great employees

This is the first time I have ordered from Big Burrito in such a long time. I had a coupon so I thought I would give it a try. The rice was terrible. It had such a sting terrible taste. We got a buy one get one free burrito. Unfortunately they both tasted like it. I had the Birra which I though was bad. The second one was a ground beef which was so bland. The refried beans were the best part of the meal. read more

Amazing food, service, deals. Fair prices for the best tacos I've ever had. Love love love love love SIGN UP FOR REWARDS ITS WORTH IT read more

I ordered delivery for a local hotel. Web ordering was good, time frame was good.Delivery person was nice and polite. Although when delivering to hotel, some kind of utensil would have been nice. Spoon, fork, spork, you know,something. Have you ever tried eating refried beans with your fingers? :) Chorizo taco was very good! Rice and beans were good also. i was pretty impressed. Then came the burrito. I was not impressed. I had grilled chicken. It was pretty bland. It was big, plenty of filling, grilled nicely, but nothing like the burrito. Next time I will order more tacos and forget the burrito. I will order again because of the chorizo taco. Is that bad? I think not! read more

Pulled Chicken Burrito was yummy. The salsa was spicy! The food came out very fast. Very casual atmosphere. Servings are big. read more

The Big Burrito - Pulled Chicken Big Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Kalamazoo, Michigan

Have you ever had a "big" burrito? I don't mean one that kinda fills you up but one you can't hardly finish, with free chips and salsa. The location on Centre even had a salsa bar where you can have as much or little of their house made salsas and pico. The open kitchen area is pretty cool so you can see them making their authentic Mexican food. Lunch time can be pretty busy but if you go during and off time you can get in and out in short order. I've never had a disappointing experience here and nobody I know has either. read more

Every time that I visit my friend in Kalamazoo we go to Big Burrito. It's your basic, easy, cheap Tex-Mex and I'm a fan. Just to clarify: this is not traditional Mexican food, you don't go here expecting either traditional or healthy. Orders are placed at the counter for both eat in and carry out. The options are fairly basic and the menu is not extensive: tacos, nachos, tostadas etc. with your choice of protein. I generally order the tacos (they have a regular size and mini). I like their soft corn shells that they serve double with each taco. Each is topped with lettuce, tomato, white cheese and sour cream. If you check in to yelp, there is a free soda coupon. read more

Vegans have two burrito options (just ask them to leave off the cheese and sour cream): the vegetarian, and the grilled veggie. If you're not vegetarian, the egg and chorizo burrito is the winner, hands-down. Sounds like breakfast, but tastes like awesome. read more

The greatest restaurant establishment of all time. I hit that place up during high school, college, and now whenever I come back home. There has been some variability over time but for the most part, if you order the pulled chicken tacos/burritos, it will take you back to when De Niro and Sammy Sosa were painted on the wall holding their burritos. I'm surprised President Biden didn't stop by when he showed up the the Pfizer plant a few months ago. That guy missed out. read more

The Big Burrito - They never disappoint - Mexican Near Me - Kalamazoo, Michigan

Big burrito? More like big disappointment. I used to frequent this place for years up until a few years ago. With a change in management, increase in prices and a reduction it quality I stopped eating here. we decided to give it another try. Big mistake. The refried beans in my burrito were so watery the tortilla was soggy and falling apart. As I ate a large puddle of grey water poured out of my burrito on the the plate. The steak was chewy and flavorless. The Mexican tacos were ok at best. They did not deliver any of the sauce that I ordered and when I asked the driver he made it seem like it was my fault for not requesting it. I will not be returning to this establishment. read more

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

Sweetness, open till 4a.m. I have to best memories of getting highschool messed up and heading to this place for all kinds of nonsense. You get free chips and salsa for dining in! I wish i was back in highschool to go here. Updated Jan 16 2016. My horchata was filled to the brim with ice, they were not accommodating. I was soooo freaking sad. I joyfully eat my last big burrito today. read more

Big burrito has been one of my fav places in town. They have a small menu but it's decent one. This place is not a regular mexican joint but, a late night take out place. I usually like to go to this place after a bar night. Thier burritos and tacos are great. I always like to get their chorizo burrito with red sauce inside it. If you dine in, you get chips and salsa. If you are there for take out then you have to pay for it. read more

The Big Burrito - Al pastor tacos at Big Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Kalamazoo, Michigan

Tried The Big Burrito for the first time lastnight after driving past for years. I ordered two beef burritos for myself, while my partner enjoyed a steak and chicken quesadilla, and friend enjoyed a taco salad. I was surprised at the size of the "regular" burrito, which is served open face to your table. It doesn't look like there would be much to it, but when you start eating it fills you up quickly. My partner raved about his steak quesadilla, but the chicken left something to be desired. As I sampled a bite of his chicken quesadilla, the first flavor that hit me was that of a bland, frozen, perhaps freezer burnt piece of meat. I'm usually a big fan of chicken quesadillas, but was a little disappointed in this one. The taco salad was pretty large and filled with tons of goodness. Before our food arrived, we were each given a boat of what appeared to be homemade tortilla chips and a homemade salsa which was extremely flavorful. Their green mild sauce had a hint of sweetness, with a slight tingle at the back of your throat. Will definitely be returning to try some more! read more

In the past, I have rated The Big Burrito Five Stars. But, over the past year and a half, their service quality has dropped. And, more recently their food quality has dropped. I try my best to leave a fair rating. I regard Big Burrito to be an old friend. But, to be honest, I would no longer refer a friend to eat at The Big Burrito. read more

Name Big Buritto is very misleading. We ordered a classic bean/beef wet buritto and what was served was two pieces of rolled up tortilla with a smattering of beef only; no beans, cheese etc. The pieces were approximately 1.75" dia x 4" long with 1/2 cup of beef at most between the two pieces. So disappointed didn't think to take pictures. Instead of paying the $8.95 would have been better to buy$1:00 frozen buritto at Meijers. Total bill 2 people with fountain drinks was $23.07. Terrible. My recommendation is stay away! read more

Recently, I told someone that Big Burrito was one of my favorite places to eat, and their response was, "I thought people only went there at 2 am when they're completely wasted and the bars have closed." While this is true, it is actually a busy place during sober-people hours as well. The food is good and tastes authentic. The salsa - both the pico an the green- is my favorite in town, and my kids love the guacamole. My husband and I both always get the tacos Mexicanos, which come with chicken, cilantro, and onion. The tamales, though calorie-laden, are amazing. I like that you can see the kitchen; transparency is appreciated in fast food!! read more
