Service is excellent and the food is great. Best Mexican food experience in the area(yes, Jimmy Guaco sucks).

The food is very good… a little pricey… place is clean and the staff is frendly. Healthy food choices.

Mucho Burrito is my favourite«fast food» place. I like seeing employees actually cooking real chicken breast when I go. It’s reassuring. The meals are great, I’ve tried almost everything on the menu, except salad(no thanks). The shredded beef burrito is my favourite. They offered a watermelon and some other fruit infused beverage for a while, it was pretty awful; It may be gone now. One time I saw an employee squirt ghost pepper(very hot) sauce into his eye while working. It brightened my day for some reason.

I’ve been coming to this Mucho Burrito location for fast and healthy take out for over six months now, and this place has become one of my top five go-to restaurants for meals when I am too tired to prepare something for myself at home. As far as take-out Mexican meals go, I find that this is one of the better places to visit in North Whitby as the ingredients this location uses are fresh and well prepared in comparison to other chains like Jimmy Guacos where the salads look tired and wilted. If you’re eating in, you’ll enjoy the many TVs set up that are usually playing a sporting game or two(I watched one of the world cup games here) and seating is wide enough to accommodate families and anyone with any accessibility needs. Service from staff is hit and miss. I’ve had great interactions with the younger staff that are cheerful and always up for a chat as they prepare my meal, whereas some of the older staff can be a lot colder towards customers and not as helpful with choosing menu items. As far as their sweets go, it is as another commenter has mentioned here — most of the times its stale and the Mexican brownie recipe varies widely from one day to the next. One week that I visited the brownie had so much chilli added that I noticed it(I usually order spicy dishes to give you an idea of the level of spiciness) and on another day that I visited I noticed there was no chilli in the recipe at all. I am giving this restaurant a 3⁄5 because while it was my favourite place to visit for a while, stingy management has had a big effect on their food as of late. Staff are noticeably light handed on serving ingredients in any of the meals(watch for this as you are getting served) and the brownies are nowhere near the same portion size as they were two months ago. You’d be lucky to get a 1″ x 1″ square compared to the 3″ x 2″ that they used to serve. Go for the fresh ingredients, but beware the smaller than average portion sizes.

If you eat at this place — when there is a Jimmy Guacos across the road — you should start looking for a good gastroenterologist now. I’ve been to Mucho Burrito several times. Staff? Rude. Food? Poor. Prices? AREYOUKIDDINGME? THISIS A BURRITOSHACK, NOTTHEKEG! I’d walk across hot coals to eat at Jimmy Guacos. I wouldn’t walk across a crack in the sidewalk for a free meal at this pit. And for the record, I do NOT work there, I am not RELATED to anyone who works there, and I’m not getting kickbacks for this review. I just love good food, and this place does NOT serve good food.

Pretty reliable chain. Consistently delivers a good, healthy product. However this location can be a little lacklustre at times. Staff seem overly micromanaged and occasionally chips and cookies are stale.

I love the idea do constructing my meal based on what I am craving at that moment. And Mucho Burrito delivers on that. I can choose a number of tastee meat options and construct the perfect burrito, designed by me and for me. The burrito’s are extremely flavorful and while I felt the prices are a touch high, that isn’t a deterrent. I will be back. That said, I do agree, the guacamole shouldn’t be a add on.

Today was my first time eating here, I’d never heard of mucho burrito before so my girlfriend and I decided to give it a try. We were amazed at how friendly the staff was, the selection on the menu, the quality of the food and the size of the portions. This place is amazing and we will definitely be coming back!

This Mucho Burrito is located right at Taunton and Brock in the massive Walmart/Loblaws plaza. My boyfriend and I came here on our way back from the cottage, hungry and wanting something fast to take home with us. I’ve eaten at Mucho downtown and have never strayed from the fish burrito but feeling adventurous, I decided to try the pork this time. I always end up with the smallest size burrito because they’re just HUGE. If you aren’t a big eater, start with the smallest size and add some nachos on the side just in case you’re not full. I piled mine high with everything that was offered(rice, beans, veggies, cheese, sour cream, guacamole(0.99 extra) and the girl had a hard time getting it closed. I have to say that the pork just didn’t do it for me. Christopher L was right by saying that its a lot of filler and not a ton of meat. It’s easy to get sidetracked adding all kinds of stuff into your burrito. My pork got lost in the burrito and while I love toppings, they just overshadowed what was supposed to be the main attraction. Overall, not a bad experience but I think I’ll stick with the fish next time. It’s got a flavor that stands up to all the toppings and really brings everything together. The service here was nothing to write home about — they really made me feel like just another burrito, no interaction, no smiles, nothing. That’s probably what made this experience mediocre — the staff at the Eaton Centre location are so very friendly, outgoing and chatty with their customers, always making suggestions of what to add and offering samples and whatnot. These guys should take a lesson from the Mucho downtown!

I’ve been twice since this location opened. The food quality and service are both good. I find that the burritos(I’ve tried the barbacoa and the chorizo) to be more filler than meat so the flavors of the meat get masked. For what you get it’s rather expensive, over $ 10 if you get the ‘mucho’ size and most of that is rice. Also, charging for guacamole if you don’t get the largest size seems a tad greedy, at least cheese is included…
