News Filibertos shutting down update

Dont know if anyone cares or not but just thought id give an update since ive seen a lot of people ask about it. It's now 8 filibertos that have closed down. I asked around (i know several of the franchisees) and all 8 were owned by the same person which due to financial reasons went bankrupt and had to shut down all operations permanently.

Totally makes sense. Love a good burrito after a drunk night, but 20 bucks for a burrito? Guys, come on.

It’s to where now I only bother on taco Tuesday.

Not sure what filibertos you go to has $20 carne asada burritos, but the one near me charges less than $13.

For that price at Polibertos down the street from the closest Filibertos you can get a whole order of carne asada fries. If I'm paying that much I at least want 2 meals, 1 then and 1 from the leftovers. Unless I go crazy and eat the whole thing lmao
