I've been wanting to eat here for a few years now. When I first heard about the place, they had unfortunately closed due to a fire. I belong to a food group on Facebook and people would mention how much they missed it. When it re-opened I tried a few times to make it, but things didn't work out. My wife and I took a staycation in Galveston this week and planned our stay around being able to try their famous "Bronco Burrito." I can honestly say, it was worth the wait. It was pouring rain out, and when we entered 45 minutes before closing, the restaurant was still packed. The customers and employees both shared smiles, and we were greeted immediately. The young lady at the front asked if we had ever been in before, and after we told her that it was our first time visiting, she went over the menu in detail, leaving no questions unanswered. We did in fact decide on the Bronco Burrito, it arrived fat, fast, and piping hot. The combination of perfectly cooked eggs, chorizo, and bacon didn't need any seasoning at all, well, other than their delicious homemade salsa verde. The spice from the salsa was cooled from the shredded cheese, and the acidity married fantastically with the pan potatoes. As tasty as all of those ingredients were together, the star of the show was the soft, buttery tortilla that held everything together. My burrito was dripping with salsa, and the tortilla held it's integrity until the very last bite. I would eat here time and time again just based on the merits of how good that the food was. But the friendliness, and the attentiveness of the staff is something that is missing in most of today's food service establishments. From the cashier, to the kitchen staff, and what I believe may have been the owner, they were all fantastic. Thank you Bronco Burrito for tieing the bow on a very special and much...
Read moreUnexpectedly had to do early morning travel to Galveston after Labor day weekend. Travel companion wanted to stop at Burger King, but it was closed, but clerk at convenience store next to BK suggested Broncos Burritos. Drove a ways looking for a blue building. Parking lot was empty, but the sign said open. We walked in to numerous ladies greeting us, they all suggested the Broncos Burritto. My buddy took one, but I asked for something smaller after they showed me the size of the bronco (it was huge, 12" a least). I was recommended the "baby bronco" which was about 10". The service was fast and efficent-they'd been doing this a while. Which was appreciated, since we were in a hurry. I noticed pretty much everyone enter and left about 2 minutes after with a small paper bag, presumably filled with a bronco burrito. The think that I noticed was all the ladies were pleasant and spoke to you with a smile. My burrito was good, not great, large, but not to big, something I could have made at home, but I wasn't home. The trick with BB, is it's like the saying "everything's bigger in Texas". They gave me a breakfast taco that could feed Big Tex, but I'm not complaining & I assume neither are they're regular customers.
I always enjoying going to Galveston as an adult because I can appreciate it more. Bronco Burritos made me smile and I...
Read moreIDK how I've never reviewed Broncos before when I've literally been going here since it was called the Donut Shoppe lol but this has always been a family favorite of ours for forever. No one does breakfast burritos like Broncos. My dad used to love ordering their huevos ala mexicana and I used to eat 2 potato and egg burritos when I was little before I was introduced to the actual Bronco. I am sucker for chorizo and eggs, so that, PLUS potatoes, cheese, and beans is just a banger. Personally, I ask for a Bronco no bacon, but it does come with it. I love how they always have Jarritos, and at one point they knew my order so well, they would say "ok see you soon Beatriz." like if that's not service IDK what is. The family is the best, sweetest family you could ever meet. The staff is always so polite, and their new ways to order is just the cherry on top. No more waiting for them to answer the phone feeling like caller number 7 winning on the radio. Although, it was always worth it IMO. If you're new to Galveston and it's your first time visiting, I'm always going to suggest...
