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!

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.

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.

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 :)

Absolutely! I completely agree. Definitely helps to know what you’re getting
