Flaming Burrito Grill — Restaurant in California

Flaming Burrito Grill is definitely the most delicious Mexican restaurant in Auburn. The chef is on point. The plates are full of meat, rather than being stacked with rice and beans at other places, and the presentation of the meals is also well done. So, if you are coming here, expect good food.

The service gets 3 stars for two reasons. First, there is no chip bar, and you will pretty much only get one small thing of chips during your stay here. Second, the cost of the menu, although not outrageous, is still slightly more than a typical competitor Mexican restaurant. (Say compared to El Portal also here in Auburn.) For example, we took our two small children to the restaurant and ordered a side of chicken. It was $12.00 for this small amount of food. Now, I'd love to give a higher service rating due to the chef, who has come out to our table on one of my other visits and checked on our table. He is friendly and definitely good at his craft.

Flaming Burrito Grill is Family run so with that I know that the good food will stay good unlike other places that have a high turnover rate and with that also changes food quality.

Looking forward to trying more of the...

Let me start by saying the staff was great. Everyone was incredibly nice and really accommodating as far as options for food goes. Next up, let me talk about the Salsa Bar. It had 8 different salsas from mild all the way to too hot. I like the 3rd hottest a lot, but that was just me. There were several variations as well, green, red, chunky, liquidy. IN short, it was a fine Salsa Bar.

Now for the burrito, I got a Steak California Burrito w/ Avocado instead of Guacamole. Basically, it was Steak, Cheese, Tater Tots and Avocado. I'm a big fan of the Tot, and having it in a burrito was a new experience. And a worthwhile one. Crunchy and Tasty. I would definitely...
