Yummy, fresh mexican fare.

by gangulg

Tired of run of the mill mixican food - get to Ramon's Real Food Place. Great food, quick service, top fresh juice - best place in the area for those who do not like the chain food places.

Guinness Book of World Record holder for biggest burrito. Honest.

The Food
The burritos will make you gasp. The large burritos weigh three pounds or more. Size matters, sure, but it doesn't outweigh quality. Burrito Real poses an impressive double threat by also serving some of the best tasting burritos on the Peninsula. Part of that comes from the freshness of ingredients and part of that comes from the sheer variety. The variety is found in the meats, which range from carne asada and carnitas to pollo en mole and pollo adobado, but is really apparent in the extras. Pick green onions and guacamole or cheddar cheese and black olives or sour cream, cilantro and corn. The carne asada is the restaurant's best-selling filling and for good reason. The meat is incredibly lean and flavorful. Try it in the burrito or any of the other dishes (nachos, salad, tacos).

The Scene

More ambiance than most, but still your basic burrito shack.

2nd Best Burritos in Mtn. View

by Eshta

The only thing better is La Costena, which is right down the street and owned by the same folks who operate Burrito Real. I like La Costena better for the grab and go part market part taqueria aspect, but that's just me. That said, run don't walk to Burrito Real for really good food and a nice place to sit and eat. (La Costena only has folding tables) Try any of their fresh grilled specials or the chicken mole and you're sure to be a happy customer. Cheap, fast, friendly service. Can't beat it.

Knock Out Burritos

by daisyblossom

I always get a vegitarian delight burrito "wet". Basically, this is a burrito with spanish rice, beans, grilled peppers and onions covered with red enchilada sauce and sprinkled with shredded cheese. If I were to have this burrito without the sauce and cheese of course it would be a lot healthier..and am quite sure it would still be good. Since I think this burrito is a perfect ten, I will give Burrito Real a perfect ten too.

• Pros: great food, nice people, outdoor seating
• Cons: long wait

custom burritos rock!

by smcall3

The meats are great & the variety makes it a new burrito every tiem you go. I love the whole beans & brown rice. They make even a bare veggie burrito taste great.

• Pros: inexpensive, good selection, unusual items
• Cons: lines can be long, buffet style

Heavy Duty Burritos

by kosmic

Fresh ingredients, homemade chips and salsa, and so many choices of burrito fillings. If you add everything offered, your gigantic burrito creation can add up in price, but still totally resaonable overall. You will never leave hungry, only completely satisfied. Consistently delicious.

• Pros: fresh, lots of choices, patio dining
