No better place to sop up a night of drinking then Burrito Boyz. The Burrito is the size of a small baby and no matter which you get its delish! I recommend the Halibut burrito!
these boyz make the best burritos in the city. good fresh ingredients help too!
This place has never disappointed. Always huge with whatever you want on it!
I have been to Burrito Boyz a number of times and it is always amazing. Their burritos are by far some of the best in the city. I always get the soy meat burrito and it is fabulous. They have plenty of options for toppings and the size of the burrito will not leave you hungry. The service is always satisfying and I never leave unhappy. It is a cute, small, fast and perfect for when you are on the go. The cost is affordable and what you get for the price is fantastic. I highly recommend dropping by for a bite!
"Epic" "well-balanced" burritos "the size of your arm" at "bargain prices" make this "legendary" Mexican chainlet the city's Best Bang for the Buck; "so-so" decor and "cramped" tables mean many take it to go, and despite "fast, efficient" service, "insanely long lines" abound (especially "during lunch and late nights"), but "addicted" fans say it's "well worth any wait."
Some say the best burritos in the city. Now with three locations, Burrito Boyz still makes the burritos - grilled, pressed and made to order - just like they've always done in their flagship sub-level location on Peter Street. Word to the wise - go for the chicken or fish and stay away from the ground round.
Really good burritos at a fair price. You will not be disappointed.
I get that this place has a line up. I don't mind waiting for good food but I waited longer than usual only to get a quesadilla that was burnt black on the bottom. Didn't realize until I got back to work. Very disappointed. Sent an email but never got a reply.
Wow, now that was a burrito! I've been here once on a quick trip to Toronto. Good anytime but ideal as late night food. There's a great range of burritos including fish and, I think, veggie options. I had a halibut burrito, after all halibut is the king of fish!
One caution, there is a hot, medium or mild option. I prevaricated between the hot and medium, but choose medium. I'm glad I didn't...

Used to be a 4 stars for me but I noticed a decrease in the quality of meat used for the steak burrito, which made it hard for me to decide to go back... which I still do once in a while. I guess if you go after a night out you won't notice that difference as much...
Bonus point: Love that they keep a stack of NOW newspaper... the only place in the city I would check it out while having a...

So so good. I always have the naked and it's always enough to fill me up! The best things is the guacamole is free!!
Hands down my favorite burrito place, period!
Menu: Choices for "meat" are plenty, including several in seafood i.e. calamari, halibut, haddock, as well as vegetarian options. Portion sizes are huge, even for the small orders. I love that you don't have to pay extra for guac too! (compared to +2$ at Chipotle, sheesh!) It's also great value - you get a HEAVY plate for under $10 (I have to use...

Love this place .... Honestly best Burrito in Toronto Halibut is tasty, simple, flaky .... Brilliant
Takes a while for you to get your burrito (about 15 - 20min) but it's fresh off the grill. The tortilla is nice and crispy, well worth the wait if you have time. Comes in two sizes, the large is about the same size as the chipotle burrito. It's also cheaper than chipotle...so that's a plus
A must to try ! The staff is like a well oiled machine ! They kranked out the most delish quesadilla that I've ever had ! Not to mention how pleasant and nice the staff was ! When they say spicey they mean spicey !!
I only stopped by here because my friends were raving about it. I came in during the lunch rush and the place was packed to the door. You can call ahead and place your order to avoid this during peak times.
I ordered a chicken burrito and it took 20 mins, reason being, they grill their burritos in the back.........I'm used to Mucho Burrito and Chipotle that give you your food right away so this...

Consistently the best burrito in Toronto. They grill the burrito into a magnificent roll of gooey, flavourful deliciousness. This place blows Chipotle out of the water; I have never understood why people enjoy eating cold burritos. The lines at Burrito Boyz can be long but they are definitely worth the wait. Surprisingly the soy burrito is fantastic as well.
Even during the heat of the lunch rush hour these guys manage to keep things orderly and chugging along quite well. The burrito I had was good, nothing groundbreaking but for 10 bucks it's well worth a visit if you're looking for a tasty quick meal.
My friends and I arrived during a busy presence but the skill, speed, friendliness, and service the employees had was amazing. My friends and I left pleased.
I ordered a small steak burrito on a whole wheat tortilla. The burrito was definitely bigger than I imagined. It was big enough to fool me into thinking I actually bought a large burrito. Overall, the size was big and filling. At first, I...

Been a loving customer for 6+ years. Doesn't get better value downtown than $7.25 for the small chicken bowl. Perfect every time!
Burrito Boyz will never fail me.
Never really thought of myself as a fan of burritos until I gave this place a try. Portions are HUGE, ingredients are fresh and cooked to a T.
TIP: If you want your burrito to taste as if it fell straight from heaven, go after a night out - yeah everything may taste better after you've had a few drinks in you but THIS is the ULTIMATE late night "snack".
I ordered a whole wheat cheese quesedilla. I also ordered a side of chips for 2.99 and sub it with guac for 0.99.
I got my quesedilla but not my chips. I only found out as I was walking back to work. I didn't want to go back since I'm running out of time for lunch plus it's a 30 min. Walk in total going back and forth.
My quesedilla tastes good, but a little soggy. Well they had a super lunch...

Buritto Boyz beats any local fast-food Mexican spot in Toronto. Expect to wait in a long line come 2-3am on a Friday or Saturday night after the club/bar, but the food is well-worth the wait. I've ordered both the chicken and sweet potato burritos. Both are tasty and seasoned well without too much salt.
What I truly like about this place is that there are a variety of options, even gluten-free...

Love the flavour, love the prices, love the portions. We ordered a steak beef bowl. Jam packed with flavour and toppings, it was really yummy - corn, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream... When you get the spiciest sauce for your side (or you can get it put straight into your dish), it really is spicy - added a good kick to the overall flavour! For price and portions, this place serves you... more
surprisingly my first time at this location, it was super busy with the lunch rush.
I got the burrito bowl, and it was good.
I guess working downtown and having other options I wasn't wowed by the food.
it had decent flavour but wasn't excellent for me to give it a 5 star rating. would I come back? probably not, unless I was in the area and super hungry with no other options.
Been to this location a few times. If you can't tell from my past reviews I go to a lot of burrito boyz, its my go to food if I'm somewhere and dont know what to eat, most times and most locations are great bang for your buck.
This location is super easy to miss when walking, I've missed it a few times. I always get the same thing, a large chicken burrito and every time it's been great. The...

Good, but prefer chipotle for sure.
Came here after a hard evening at beach volleyball and had a large chicken burrito with a coke zero. $10 and filled me right up, nice.
The burrito was stuffed and super filling. The taste is pretty good - they grill the chicken well and the toppings are added to the max. The sauces could do with a little improvement though. Asked for the hot out of the "hot...

My friend and I didn't care for this place at all. First of all, the woman taking orders was impatient and pushy. I didn't like her attitude. Secondly, it took a while for them to cook the burrito and quesadilla and my friend's ended up burnt. When she returned it, they gave her another one which was undercooked. Mine was just OK, nothing to write home about. And to top it off, the speakers... more
The burritos here are HUGE. Had I not been a little buzzed, I probably would not have been able to finish the whole thing. I had the chicken burrito which was pretty darn good, especially at the price they charge! I would pick this place over chipotle any day. I would come here once a week if there was on in NY!
First off the food is amazing and the staff is great! I loved everything about this except for the loudness and disorganization of the experience. If they better streamlined the ordering process (yes you can phone in ahead but that only partially works) then this place would easily get a perfect rating.
Highly recommend this place, just not when it is really busy.
If you find yourself hungry late night in Toronto and looking to satisfy your appetite with some Tex-Mex, Burrito Boyz has got you covered! Minus one star for the surly attitude from some of the employees.
The single best burrito I've ever eaten. And only $6.75?? Insanity. The best late night snack decision is burrito boyz.
In addition to serving great food, the staff were very professional. There was a couple drunk guys looking to fight and the staff was able to diffuse the situation quickly and without a mess.
Pretty good burritos and Quesadillas. Hits the spot at the end of a long day.
The ingredients are fresh. Their Fish Buritto and steak quesadilla are pretty good.
Just an interesting ingredient I once tried:
One time I found a strand of long blond hair in my Burrito -I'm not blond-. I was initially giddy with excitement but when the 3rd one came up I just had to ask for another Burrito. The...

Great chicken bowls and good prices. Small place to eat and always really busy during lunch do it's best to grab and go. I once got cold chicken during lunch which was strange but other times it's always been good.
Staff are so rude and just because I am more calorie conscious they made fun of me and got really rude because I asked for no sauce. I actually got made fun of because of my preferences and I felt like this is a potential discrimination lawsuit .
This isn't Mexican food. Their salsa tastes like ketchup, all though their habanero salsa is actually good. The only thing I liked about my burrito was the fish inside.
Called in and ordered ahead and was told that they were unaware of the time we would be showing up to pickup our order. This place definitely needs to figure out a better system. I understand the volume of customers they have and how packed it can get (line up out the door). However you'd think the place would be a bit more organized. Figure it out Burrito Bozo's
I don't eat burritos often but when I do I swear by their halibut burrito with all the fixings. Portions are huge (I always get the small). Don't get intimidated by the lines, the food comes out quickly despite how packed it always is.
Also, I've been fortunate to find a seat to eat every time but there aren't many tables so be ready to take your food outdoors.
This place is not big and packed with people. The service is good. The staff suggested me to choose all the topping since this is my first time trying Mexican food.
Ordered chicken quesadilla. Huge portion. Thick layer of cheese and a lot of chicken. I felt fulfilled. There were two toppings. Since I chose no spicy. They are kind of tasteless.
Overall personally, Mexican food is not my thing....
more
Awesome chicken quesadilla and veg soy burrito. Fresh nacho chips with guacamole. Ordered small but was very filling. Couldn't finish the whole of quesadilla a lot of quantity. And loved the hot sauce. It's super spicy. Overall nice food!
This will be a review of the franchise in general, been to 3 individual ones, 2 in Toronto and one in Waterloo (been maybe 15 times in total in last 8 months). The thing that stands out most is the sheer amount of food given to you, whether that food is mediocre or good really seems random based on my experience. There's so much inconsistency in the food, depending on which "burrito artisan"... more
Good burrito, not great. Reviews are over rated, the place is great for midnight after club food but I wouldn't go here if I want a GREAT burrito. It's a nice quick fix. They don't have much meat options (ex flavoured chickens or flavoured meats)
I would come back if I was craving burrito specifically, but wouldn't be first choice burrito place either.
My favorite spot for burritos! I regularly get the chicken with the gluten free wrap. One of the few places that offers gluten free. Always fantastic!
Truthfully, I've never been a "burrito" type of person. I was working at a conference at the nearby Shangri-La hotel for 2 weeks. After a week of hotel food and expensive dinners, I decided to skip out on the formal dining, grab my boyfriend and go out for a cheap meal.
I'm a carb-avoider so what I liked about Burrito Boyz is you can order these "plates" that is basically a take out container...

I saw a movie this evening with a friend. Before the movie, we met at Burrito Boyz for supper ... it's where we always meet before we see a movie.
Trish ordered the combo meal ... burrito, pop, chips and salsa. She is vegan and ordered her burrito with ground soy and no dairy.
I ordered what I always do ... a small chicken burrito. As always, it was delicious!
Coming back to this place reminded me of those good old party days when I'd used to come here after hitting the clubs. Down the stairs we go and into Burrito Boyz.
Though this time rather than coming here in the weee morning hours, I decided to head out for lunch with a coworker. Lets just say it can get chaotic in here due to the office lunch rush! It kind of makes you wonder what's the...

I wish Burrito Boyz was Chipotle and had locations everywhere in NYC. It's 10x better with more toppings, larger portions and they don't charge for guacamole. They even grill your burrito after it's all rolled up! The staff are all very nice, but then again all the Canadians I have encountered on this trip have been nice : )
Tip- must order the halibut! It's great in both a burrito or bowl....
more
Great burritos. Can be a little bit of a wait time if you go on busy nights but it's worth it.
Big fan of the fish burritos which I thought sounded disgusting at first but after having one and realizing the fish was actually battered and fried I quickly changed my mind. Staff are all young and pretty cool as well.
Burrito is love, burrito is life.
Seriously, best burritos in downtown Toronto, and the best Burrito Boyz shop in Ontario. Very fast and efficient service, reasonable prices (even after the recent increases), and even the small burritos are LOADED (the large is just too much for me!). My co-workers go here basically every day, and I make it a point to go once a week (for basically the last year).
The best halibut burrito in town! The place is always busy and there is always a little bit of a wait. They do take orders over the phone at I usually call 15 minutes before hand and my order is always waiting for me by the time I get there. Guacamole is free which is a nice bonus as compared to places like Chipotle that charge $2.10 extra. I wouldn't recommend ordering their naked burrito -... more
The place to go when you are craving just about anything. Theres meat, carbs, veggies and that hint of spice if you are into that...plus the guac is free!
I always saw the place completely packed Saturday nights and there was a reason to it. The portions are large despite the price and its a easy meal (cant call it a snack due to its size) to down after an insane night out at a club. The only...

Very very disappointed in the quality of the steak last night. Each bite was a combination of grit and or tendon. Last few visits have left me wondering about the quality of meat being used.
As an American that moved to toronto, I have long been searching for a good Mexican place to eat...and the search goes on....what can I say about this place....it tries too hard but doesn't do the basics right....plus no tacos?...maybe I'm just spoiled by the abundance of choice south of the border.... more
Burrito Boyz prides itself on being authentic Mexican. Being from southern California, where there are authentic Mexican restaurants on every corner, I can definitively say this isn't it. That's not to say it's bad. It's hearty and fresh, and both the burrito nor the quesadilla are pretty decent, though they taste nearly identical. But Mexican this isn't.
by far, the best burrito in Toronto… priced just right, portions are big and more importantly the burrito’s are very very very tasty
perfectttttttttt…. and you can customize your spice level
One of the best burrito shops anywhere. And I live in LA and have had my share of burritos.
Step into this dingy whole in wall and just say two words.. Halibut Burrito.
"""Not a place where you would go to sit down and have a meal. They do have a counter though. The Burrito have many toppings available and if you get the large size, they are a meal for most people on their own."""
"""The best burrito in the downtown core. Lunch time diners are lined up out the door and wait patiently in line for their chance to hold a substantial, well balanced, juicy burrito in their hands. Try the halibut. You will not be disappointed."""
The best burritos in the city - but be prepared for a lineup.
"""Made-to-order burritos at bargain prices. Best and worst feature--late night dining. If you can handle the club kids, it's one of few options open until 3am thurs, 4am fri/sat!"""
"""Very good fish burrito, hot and fresh. Located in the basement on kind of a shady street. Slow service but not problematic."""
Good burritos and quesadillas, I've had many in their Mississauga location.
We went to the location on Adelaide. Long line as usual but well worth the wait on 24 Jan 08 with Iain P. I had a large chicken burrito and I couldn’t finish it. I love how they toast both sides so that the burrito won’t fall apart while you are working on it. It also gives it a nice texture to contrast with the filling. My favourite burrito in Toronto!
The best burrito in town – 2 locations downtown! Less than $10 per burrito, well known for Halibut Burrito.. delicious!
One just opened up in Port Credit. Big line-up most of the time, but burritos are made efficiently. Halibut is great.
Try the halibut, if you haven’t already. It’s lightly battered and then deep fried. Until we get real fish tacos here, this will have to do.
Great great fresh made burrito’s.
The place is way too small, and some of the servers are surly, but the food is delicious
Burrito Boyz serves up the closest thing to Mexican food that you're going to find in Toronto. They serve up mammoth burritos that don't scrim on the ingredients like some burrito places do. Expect less rice and more great fillings all fresh. You basically choose your main ingredient — pain-fried chicken, grilled beef or deep-fried halibut and then pile on the toppings: guacamole, refried... more
Burrito Boyz serves, not surprisingly, burritos. But these aren’t your ordinary burritos. Voted best in the city for a reason, Mexican food lovers can get a choice of a six-inch or 10-inch made with a choice of beef, veggies, chicken breast, halibut, shrimp or prime sirloin and stuffed with rice and a choice of black or pinto beans, cheese, sour cream, jalapenos, sauces and guacamole.
Noted as one of the top Burrito joints north of the border, Burrito Boyz serves up flavorful Mexican re fried goodness. In the middle of club district, the small shop is hot on take-out, but expect lines as regulars wait for their lunch during the day and clubbers refuel with spicy sustenance after a late night of partying. Choose from the classic chicken, beef, or vegetarian burrito or spring... more
Burrito Boyz is a Mexican and Fast Food restaurant where most Menuism users came for fun with friends and paid less than $10.
