Mr. Burrito — Restaurant in Addison Township

When this place first opened back in 2007 or so it was pretty ambitious. The food was good and management ran a tight ship. Theeeeen the old Bensenville Rot set in. I refer to it as the "Bensenville Rot" because any ambitious independent business here opens to a lot of fanfare and praise then rapidly disintegrates into a puddle of odd smelling goo nobody can identify. I suspect it is because these businesses are paying "Next to O'Hare!" taxes without the "Next to O'Hare!" clientele. Yet another mafiaesque tactic employed by our local government that pushes businesses to their limits and creates disasters like this place. Unidentifiable odd smelling goo was really no exaggeration as on my last visit that is exactly what I encountered on the floor near the soda machine. The portion sizes are ridiculous and are enough for three meals for a 215lb individual such as myself. The drive thru is basically a useless function seeing as it never takes less than 15 minutes to receive your order. Employees attitudes are blase and that's putting it delicately. Can't say I blame 'em. There's nothing to be proud of here, it's just a minimum wage paycheck. The food here these days is inedible which is sad because when they first opened they gave off a slightly more upscale feel in both decor and fare. Even the salsa was bitter on my last visit, which is usually a sign of old cilantro or old limes. There is a recessed dining area with a curved waterfall bay window in the front of the building, it's what you see from the street driving by. They use it as some sort of ad-hoc storage room. Your first sight pulling into the lot is this dining area which is filled with what appears to be a ton of broken stuff and scattered blankets and papers. Never eat at a place that looks like an episode of hoarders. I know, I know... Thanks Cpt. Obvious! Given the laundry list of Mexican restaurants in the area just close your eyes and pick one, it'll definitely be better than this place. I was legitimately concerned for my health the last time I came...

I ordered a lunch burrito meal for $10 from Mr. Burrito in Addison, Illinois, as a to-go order and ate it in my vehicle. My experience was less than satisfying. Observing the cook warming the rice in the microwave and manhandling it was off-putting right from the start. The burrito’s steak portion was not only minimal but also fatty and gristly, missing the authentic Hispanic flavors I anticipated. The rice was another letdown, flavorless except for an overwhelming taste of black pepper, and its microwave reheating did no favors to its quality. On a positive note, the beans managed to deliver a taste of authenticity, which was a small comfort in an otherwise disappointing meal. The Diablo hot sauce, although ample in quantity, failed to provide the expected heat or flavor. Overall, the experience at Mr. Burrito was underwhelming, particularly given the meal’s price and the less-than-appetizing preparation I witnessed. After being quoted a total of $10.80, I was disappointed to discover a service charge had been added without prior mention, bringing my actual total to $11.20. This lack of transparency, combined with the lackluster meal and preparation I observed, made my overall experience with Mr. Burrito...

Yesterday 10/16/2023,I went to Mr. Burritos around 9 PM when I got there I gave them a $100 bill and they marked it with the money marker and it came back valid then they used the machine and it denied my hundred dollar bill three times. The cook behind the register came and took the $100 bill and told me that I was not gonna get the money because it was fake I then asked if I could see it to look up at it and the light to show them that the machine was wrong the money was real I saw the watermark. I then called the police because I felt like something fishy was going on. The police came in they started to do their detective work with a $100 bill. The police came in they started to do their detective work with a $100 bill. It took him about 10 to 15 minutes to realize that the bill was real and gave it back to me. all in all Mr. burrito you guys need to get a new money reader because I was guys tried to...
