Burrito Crisostomo

This place has lost its appeal. Okay, so there's still a nostalgic feel to their food, especially the tortillas and the mole. And maybe I just didn't care when I was a kid that the beans were super dry, but I do now... especially at around $5 a pop. I ordered 6 menu items and asked for salsa and they skimped and gave me four. The desherbada was dry and lacked seasoning. The menu also states that all burritos come with beans unless otherwise stated or requested but my moms burrito was missing the beans. They also have a sign up for handmade paletas but apparently they don't sell them anymore... so why is the sign will up? It was fun to get a taste of my childhood (I guess) but I think it's time to leave this place in the past.

Been coming here since it opened and despite the change in management personnel it still is good...the consistency of their food is much to be desired! I always order a Chile relleno burrito with beans and each time it's different?!?!? It's still good, I just never know what to expect! Beans to hard, or too much cheese in the relleno or not enough....consistency matters!!!! Check out for yourself!

Crisostomo Burritos and Quesadillas. I've never been here before and it's drive thru only, so didn't know what to expect. The menu was pretty clear and the attendant was super nice. I asked which ones weren't spicy in English and she spoke back in Spanish and told me which ones weren't like the barbacoa, but the bistek was spicy. I guess my Spanish listening skills from watching Taco Chronicles on Netflix is paying off! I ordered the barbacoa, and the salsa and cilantro and onions came on the side. The bistek already had everything. You can add beans or have it without and there's no upcharge. I added it to the bistek but left the barbacoa alone. It was fairly priced for the size of the burritos. I had a bite of the bistek and it was spicy, but hubby liked it, it has potatoes and peppers in the sauce. The barbacoa was seasoned well, I added the cilantro and onions but didn't need the salsa. There was a huge gristly chunk towards the end of the burrito which I didn't like, and it was super greasy.This is a good spot if you want quick and not McDonald's or Sonic style fast food, but I'll still stick to Los Primos for my barbacoa, it's never gristly or greasy.

Dining room is not open so this is a drive thru experience.They get 2 stars for their rapid service even with a large number of cars lining up- very efficient for a business that was obviously not built for drive through only.The food though, absolutely inedible this time; nothing was fresh even though we went shortly after opening. The salsa was curdling up it was so spoiled. Chiles rellenos were 3 days old ( not a guess-employee admitted it). Barbacoa had no seasoning and with no salsa to save it, straight to the trash can. This is not the first time I've had them, they're usually adequate for the price but this time is like the whole restaurant went out Friday night and just showed up in the morning to serve whatever they had leftover

Their burritos used to be the best. We had stopped going cause their quality had gone down but decided to give it one more try.... so regret it. I ordered the desherbada and Chile relleno burritos. I took one bite of desherbada and eat half of the chile relleno. The only reason I gave it two stars was cause the people who work their are always friendly and their fast.

Chicken mole burritos are very enjoyable. My favorite. Have tried other burritos they offer and haven been disappointed. I wasn't too thrilled about the weenie burrito. Fast paced lanes so word of advice- look up the menu and be prepared to order because lines can get long.

Lingua burritos are to die for. Picadillo burritos are good too. But the lingua is the best. Tender, melt in your mouth lingua in a rich red chile sauce, enveloped in a soft, warm flour tortilla. It is delicious comfort food at it's finest. They have a nice condiments bar with fresh pico de gallo and other salsas, but those lingua burritos need no further adornment.

Alright for a quick meal (though I imagine not during Franklin's lunch hour) Crisostomo's burritos will, by no means, blow you away, but they are okay-to-good and reliable across the many El Paso locations. This location struck me as having a more limited selection than the Eastside locations I frequent, but I can't prove that, the menu just looked smaller.The rajas con queso burrito is soggy and messy, but good, the Chicharron is okay. The tortillas are nice and fluffy, and taste freshly made. Drinks are waaaay overpriced, however, I recommend take out and get your drink elsewhere.I take it the owners are Bayern fans, this is the second location that I visit that has a Champions League plaque, there's nothing wrong with that and this isn't really going anywhere, I just found it odd.

Burritos are small, over priced, and bland.. who the F*^ck covers 50 cents per Card Charge. Burrito Factory, or Burrito Time anywhere but this cinder block prison kitchen. "Agua Fresca" tastes like Sugar and Packaged crap. lets just call it what it is. Mexican Cool-aid.I am mexican, i was born in Mexico. This is crap. I am going out of my way just to write this. Not trying to be mean these are just the feelings that bubbled up over lunch.... maybe the 50 cents pissed me off. ...also watched a funny Southpark episode last night.

First off the positive aspects. This place is a Burrito institution. Particularly the Juarez locations. However their prices have been steadily going up. And although this is to be expected during the Pandemic some items should not gone up so much. There is also a lack of consistency...on some days the burritos are well made with enough of the primary ingredients. On other days it's a skinny version of what's it's supposed to be. You are still paying the same price. When Burritos start to touch 5 dollars a Burrito there are just simply other options, I get I understand why the prices are going up. But it's honestly gonna drive people away....
