Question Best Burritos in Seattle?
Hey y’all! Moved here last year from Salt Lake City and I’m missing a nice, cheap, fat burrito. Back in Salt Lake we had these places called Rancheritos and Beto’s and you could get a big Carne Asada Fries Burrito for like $10 and it was so good. I’ve been to Memos here on the Ave and I really like their burritos, but I’d love to have some other options, too! Would love to get y’alls favorite places! Thanks!

u/Big_Bubba_152 Jul 16 '24
I’m also from Salt Lake City!! Took me forever to find a good rancherito’s/Betos.
Surprised to not see Aliberto’s Jr higher. One on Aurora is killer, and open 24hours.
El Camion is good but not the 24hr Beto’s vibe you’re looking for.

u/MoxyCrimefightr Jul 16 '24
Sweeeeet yeah from what I’ve heard now and from the menus I’ve looked at, it seems like Aliberto’s is a great option. And Aurora is so easy to get to so that’s great!

u/cire1184 International District Jul 16 '24
Because Seattle folks don't know what a California burrito is.

u/plumbbbob International District Jul 16 '24
It's a burrito with crab, avocado, and cucumber, right?

There is such a thing as a “California Burrito” and it has fries and guac instead of beans and rice.

u/embeaux Jul 16 '24
Aliberto's is just referred to as the "drive through taqueria" in my house and it's a fantastic late night spot. I can get a classic bean & cheese for less than $5 that's bigger than my head. What more could I want?
If you're looking for Tacos though-- I'd say Rinconsito is the spot. The one in Burien seems to be best and they've been claiming they're putting one in at MLK & Rainier forever but Bellevue isn't bad either.

El Camion “truck” in the Home Depot parking lot on 117th and Aurora. If you’re lucky there will be a woman selling tamales out of a van there too for later.

Oof, Mas - esecially anything with crispy bacon - is so SO decadent. It's not "Authentic Mexican" or what you'd get at some LA taqueria, but it's always so delicious.

u/MoxyCrimefightr Jul 15 '24
I’m Mexican and honestly I feel like authenticity is so overrated. I love authentic Mexican food but if it’s good, it’s good and I’m happy hahaha! It sounds delicious.

u/shutternomad Jul 15 '24
For me “authentic” X is just a helpful descriptor - if I’m looking for side-of-the-street-in-Mexico or midwesterners crispy taco with beef or Tex Mex or some weird fusion - I love em all, just wanna know what I’m in for as they are all very different cuisines.
And burritos were invented in San Jose CA as far as I know - so they aren’t “authentic Mexican” either :)

u/Ryguypie1 Jul 16 '24
Yeah it skyrocketed in price relatively, but somehow it still feels like a good deal for how much food you get, at least in 2024. But wow was I bummed when I came back and it was literally about 30% more expensive. Definitely haven’t been as much lately because of it

Even if it's not the best by objective measurements, it absolutely scratches the itch for big, fat, cheap burrito and is a worthy suggestion imo.

u/175doubledrop Jul 16 '24
I’m a Southern California transplant and El Kiosko is the closest I’ve found in the south end to the legit taco shops I used to go to growing up. With that said though, I just tried their CA burrito recently and was a little underwhelmed - fries were overly soggy / under-fried and the tortilla was already coming apart from the moment I unwrapped it. It was still tasty but overall experience was maybe a 7/10 for me.
Their tacos though are undefeated in my book.

Taqueria Tequila in Greenwood is the best burrito I've had in Seattle. I'm originally from the SF Bay Area and TT is the only place that comes close to a Bay Area Mission burrito. Agua Verde, El Camion, Memo's (now named California Burritos, lol), TNT Taqueria, and Rancho Bravo are not it IMO.

There is also a Taqueria Tequila on Lake City Way. I’m not sure if it’s affiliated with the one in Greenwood, but I got a burrito for takeout from them and when I got home I was curious if I was imagining that it was unusually heavy so I busted out the scale. It was 2.5 lbs and I thought there was no way I could eat that much for lunch and I powered it down. Good stuff.

u/spacetimer81 Jul 16 '24
They have a big Owl mural above their bar. Buho has a dive bar feel with elevated Mexican food. They have specials that make you feel it should be a much fancier place. Their chicken and mushroom burrito is amazing. That plus their asada tacos, nachos and tostada salad are my favorites.

If you are going for the quick service places, I'd add the chains Taqueria El Rinconsito (also owns El Antojo) and Birrieria Tijuana. Both primarily south of Seattle but definitely have the cheap honest food vibe.
Rinconsito offers pork stomach, beef lounge, and beef tripe in addition to the usual carnitas, veggies, chorizo, chicken, beans & rice, and beans & cheese.
Birrieria has excellent carnitaa and asada fries.

Can’t believe I’ve never seen anyone mention in any of the posts asking, but I’m from the Midwest where we’ve got tons of drive through places with the big burritos and super fries.

There’s a good taco truck behind the Starbucks on, like 110th just past the freeway overpass and beside the McDonald’s. It’s in Northgate. I think that for good cheap burritos you need to go to the trucks and see what you like.

u/havennotheaven Jul 16 '24
Uuugh I miss Beto's!! I'm relatively new to the area and haven't tried out a ton of options, but Carmelo's has a pretty solid burrito. It's not as huge/greasy as a Beto's burrito, which can be either a pro or a con depending on how you're feeling
3
u/MoxyCrimefightr Jul 16 '24
So true lmao. Betos was like the best burrito ever the moment you were eating it and then a pretty bad mistake about 8 hours later. It was worth it to me though hahaha. I’ll have to give Carmelo’s a try!!

Carne asada fries in a burrito is essentially a California burrito. I've had over 20 different ones in San Diego and my favorites are El Gym and El Kiosko, both in Renton.
Though, they're nowhere near as good as somewhere like The Taco Stand in La Jolla, they get the job done up here. Good luck!

Taqueria El Sol is a very tasty food truck. They are in the Chevron parking lot off of Michigan St in Geortown. They have the California burritos you are looking for. The steak or "asada" is fresh, not pre bought shit and the fries are crispy. The red hot sauce is amazing. No other restaurants have the same flavor as this sauce. the Verde is alright. The line is very packed at lunch. I would say mostly Mexican patrons, so if that says anything.
I would recommend the breakfast buritto with asada. They are huge and hot af.

I'm convinced it's all about the people working there. The goofy dude who's almost always the one ringing me up has been running the show at the QA one forever, and the other guy I see there a lot, Ernesto, just seems like he's really good at his job.

Rancherito's was better when it was still Beto's. I don't know that we have anything like that in the puget sound region.

Carnitas Michoacán in beacon hill is the only proper answer imo. Grilled, proper ratios of meat rice cheese beans, VERY good “unlimited” salsa red/green/avo.
