Big Burritos (little donkeys translated), that’s for sure. Bought 2: Carne Asada and Shrimp Burritos. Carne Asada a little high in salt, like the shaker did it’s own shaking and precipitated more granules of salt than it should have been used. Plenty of rice to accompany the meat, which by the way, is a well known business strategy with in the burrito world. Adds bulk, satiates hunger, etc. The meat, otherwise looked average. The eater, well known complainer when less than ideal, only ate half. I refused the other half being I was full. 2.5 Stars. The Shrimp one was also loaded with rice, but it’s redeeming grace were the chunky shrimp, a little more generous number that merit recognition. Enough to fill most tanks, but not a work of culinary art with plenty of diced onions in the mix. 3.5 Stars. A free Carne Asada Street Taco loaded with meat, onions and cilantro. 3.5 Stars. I seriously doubt the greatness allocated to the establishment, but agreed wholeheartedly in the generous amounts dispensed, but a big burrito is not necessarily a great one. No salsa offered, nor given, chip chip. Place empty at 7:10 PM. Total:...
Read moreTerrible experience, terrible food. Called in the order, one of us requested the whole rack of ribs advertised. They called back right before we left and said they don't sell a whole rack of ribs, just a rib plate with rice and beans. Weird... but okay.
Arrived to find a sign on the door and an item on the menu that's says "Whole rack of ribs." I should have asked about it, but figured they might just be low on ribs and didn't want to sell a whole rack. Staff managed to be unfriendly even though we didn't interact beyond paying and grabbing the bag.
I'm glad I didn't get the whole rack. The 3 tiny, sawdust dry, extremely chewy, incredibly salty, bone shard filled spare ribs were the worst I've ever had. Ever. By far.
The rice and beans were bland, the veggies on the side wilted, and the single tortilla included was chewy. Did I mention the ribs require a hacksaw and 10 glasses of water to eat?
The chimichanga was a soggy, soft mess, and FULL OF CHICKEN BONES. The salsa tasted like canned tomato sauce. Absolutely insane. The regret is...
Read moreI've been to Aztlan quite a few times on my lunch break because it's pretty close to where I work. It's takeout only for the most part. I think there may be a little table outside to sit at, but pretty much you get your food and go. My usual purchase is a burrito. The food tends to be a little heavy on sodium, and one of my slight peeves is that the burritos end up being too wet for one to a better term. Term. As if they didn't drain off enough juice before putting the fillings in. And the burritos are wrapped sort of sloppily so that they can easily unwrap while you're trying to eat them. The flavor of the food is decent and the people seem nice enough. And for the price, I'll probably continue to go there, but we'll most likely stick with being rice and cheese burritos because the others get a little too messy When I'm trying...
