Berlin Burrito Company — Restaurant in Berlin

My partner and I both really love their burrito bowls. We've been getting them consistently for the past few years. What we love even more are the bags of tortilla chips that come with them—so fresh and crisp and flavourful, and much better than any other tortilla chips I've had at the various Mexican restaurants around Berlin. We've also had their burritos a couple times and those were also good. We usually get the lime tofu or chicken, with different types of rice, then a lot of different toppings.

All of this said, for the past six months or so we haven't gone as much because the prices have gone up quite a bit. When we started going, we could get our two bowls for under 20€, and in the past 2.5 years the price for the same order has gone up to 27€. The food has also become less consistent. Sometimes the bowls are great, but other times they're fine—never terrible, but for 13.50 per bowl, I want them to always be great. The amount of food we get is also unpredictable. Sometimes the bowl is full to the top, other times it's only about half full, which also feels like too little food for the cost.

I think part of the issue may also be that sometimes we are being overcharged—I think this has happened twice and was probably due to the person being busy and maybe new, rather than any intentional overcharging. It's just to say, have a look at the menu and know what your food should cost before you order, because it's possible you might be mistakenly overcharged.

The food is still really tasty, and better than any other Mexican-style food we've had in the area so far. But we're still not going anymore unless we're exceptionally tired and busy, simply because of how unpredictable and pricey it has become. I realize inflation affects all of us, so I'm not holding the raised cost against them, but for us it's not possible to go as often as a result, and then the unpredictable quality and amounts are also a factor.

For all the reasons above, I'd actually rate the restaurant a 3.5, but I can't do half stars, and they're definitely closer to a 4 than a 3. I hope you get them on a good night. If you do, you're sure...

This reminds me of chain burrito bar restaurants they have at home in the States, where you have 20 or so food items to choose from to construct a burrito or casadilla. However the flavors are all off. The Mexican rice is not Mexican rice, the tortillas are not authentic tortillas they are huge and rubbery, like a flatbread. The salsa is also not authentic. The black beans are straight out of a can, unflavored and cold. They will stack your burrito high with all the lettuce, rice and beans you want, but when it comes to adding meat they are stingy, and the meats are cold also. You end up eating what taste like a large rubbery cold veggie burrito. Over all I though it was very uneventful and overpriced, the burrito is huge, but 11 bucks for lettuce rice and beans is just crazy. Especially since this is the furthest from Tex-mex food I ever had. Staff was very nice though. and the place...

As far as burritos in Berlin go, Burrito Company is certainly the place to order. It’s the closest you can get to an American chain such as Chipotle, for example. The main problem with Burrito Company is the occasional inconsistency in terms of quality, hence the 1-star reduction. Sometimes their chicken/beef and rice are dry and bland. Also, I often payed an extra €2 for guacamole when they had either put a meager teaspoon full of it, or had simply forgotten all about it. Overall, Burrito Company is probably the closest you will get to Tex-Mex in Berlin, so I’m still a regular customer. To the employees at Burrito Company: please pay attention to the quality as much as you can - you know how to make good food, so please keep your...
