El Barrio Burritos is a Crown Heights favorite for those of us who love Mexican food. This Brooklyn restaurant takes inspiration from classic burrito shops in Southern California, offering a vegan-first menu that is sure to satisfy everyone's cravings.

One of the standout features of El Barrio Burritos is their commitment to starting all of their dishes vegan, with meat options available for those who want them. Their menu is filled several protein options, including steak, chicken, ground beef, and shrimp, as well as market veggies, tofu, and two types of vegan beans. The vegan special is also worth trying for those who want to sample something different.

The burritos at El Barrio are a particular standout, with impeccable taste and generous portions. Customers rave about the grilled steak burrito, which comes on a flour tortilla with rice, beans (black or refried), lettuce, and pico de Gallo. The vegan "short ribs" burrito is also a must-try, with many customers describing it as the best tex-mex they've had in NYC.

In addition to burritos, El Barrio has an array of yummy tacos, quesadillas, salads, and desserts. The pizzadilla is a customer favorite, with the au jus on the side adding the perfect finishing touch. The guac is also worth mentioning, with generous portions that are sure to please.

What makes El Barrio even better is how friendly and accommodating their team is. Many customers have raved about how kind and helpful they are. It's also worth noting that their food delivery set up is also super fast, with many customers getting their orders within 15 minutes of placing them.

Overall, El Barrio Burritos is a fantastic restaurant that truly lives up to its reputation.
