Best steak burrito in Austin. Stopper by for a carne burrito for lunch. Black beans. Burrito took less than 4 min to be ready. Green sauce is spicy and good

It was fine. The food was fine... except the chips- they're soggy. The drinks were fine- had the horchata aguas frescas. The service was fine. It's a small joint with limited seating, so it's a bit sterile in the atmosphere department, but it's fine. It is nice they have vegan queso (and regular) and farm eggs. Ingredients are all fresh, they just don't pop.

I frequented the 7th Street location weekly before they closed. Solid breakfast tacos at an affordable price. Order ahead as sometimes they're a little slow. Nice people. Clean place. Occasional zombies wandering by...

Went in for a plant based burrito or taco and was sad to find out that the one I had originally wanted had been taken off the menu, however!! The super friendly staff helped me to pick another option, which I really enjoyed. The burritos are huge and super affordable! What I enjoyed about the one I tried was how vegetable heavy (and tasty) it was, coupled with beans and rice. Hoping they bring back the plant based queso, but until they do I'll be coming back for good vibes and guacamole. Good music with really wonderful outside seating, lined with big trees and string lights. Super cool vegan friendly spot!

The tortilla could be better it's definitely not homemade if that's what you're looking for but the prices are good and so are the ingredients

Service was nice, love the salsa ala charra, but I got the breakfast bowl and it's not good. Raw, unseasoned kale, no avocado and the corn and black beans are so dry. I've had other things here that are delicious, but would not recommend the breakfast bowl.

First time visiting this place. The food was very tasty! I ordered the puffy taco thinking it was something else but it was still good. A lot of dough though.Service was accurate and fast. Ambiance was nice. Wide open space indoors with outdoor seating as well.Very clean. No noise concerns. Definitely a place to come back and visit again.

To all my fellow vegans and meatless eaters, all you need to know is the Brentwood from El Chilito. Get it in burrito or taco form (which can be made with a corn, wheat, or puffy shell) and enjoy a fresh medley of sauteed spinach, mushrooms, potatoes, avocado, and pico de gallo. No need to omit or replace anything, which is a lovely thing. The chips (fried in house) and charred salsa are also quite lovely if you want something snacky to go with the meal. I tend to order delivery because I'm lazy AF these days, but even then, service is crazy fast and always comes in hot. It's a foolproof choice when in need.

I want to be transparent, my companion ordered food from here after a night of debauchery, so this review is based upon the 'morning after' taste buds. We ordered an amalgamation of things to include a variety of tacos, chips, salsa, black beans, etc. However, I specifically ordered (for me only) the carne asada taco and chips and salsa. Carne Asada tacoI added fresh jalapeños to give my entree a little AM pick me up. Unfortunately, the jalapeños could not save the dried-out meat nor could the slathering of charred tomato salsa a top the taco. Perhaps this was an 'off-day' for this spot or maybe it was just me? However, dried-out meat is something I can't look past.

Very disappointed in the egg, potato cheese taco. It was bland. And the potatoes were too chunky and had no discernible seasoning
