Been here twice and had really great food both times. Margaritas are good, too. I’ve eaten the carnitas burrito bowl twice, birria tacos, and birria pizza. The food is hot, fresh, plentiful, and tasty!! I love that you can get the bowl with a protein of your choice and then add the extra stuff you want. I usually do carnitas, black and pinto beans, cilantro rice, queso, fajita-style peppers and onions, jalapenos, hot tomatillo salsa, and some pico de gallo. All orders come with chips and salsa. They have a wide selection of Jarritos sodas, fountain drinks, tea, beer, margaritas.

This place is sooooo good! It’s like a more authentic fresh chipotle, but even better than that. The restaurant is family owned and has the best, most authentic chorizo I’ve had in NC. The atmosphere is welcoming and high end feeling. They have music on Fridays sometimes and their $5 margaritas are huge! They’re happy to grab extra stuff for you even though this is not a sit-down restaurant. The portions are also huge!

If you are craving Mexican food, and I mean AUTHENTIC Mexican food, this is the place to go! The Atmosphere is friendly and upbeat with hispanic music playing in the background and comfortable seating either inside or out and the place is very well cleaned. You are getting restaurant quality mexican food in a chipotle format but with better ingredients and more options for customization! All the entrees come with chips and salsa so the price is also really great for the amount (and quality) of food you are getting!
Every single bite I took was delicious! The guacamole was the perfect dipping consistency and the chips didn’t break in it, they have my favorite white queso, which is not the overly salty kind, and the salsa is the exact kind you’d expect at a restaurant.
My quesadilla had the perfect crisp on the outside and I got all the delicious toppings I could want in it. And if you’ve never had Horchata, well you should, I consider that my dessert, but they also offer actual desserts like Flan.
All around, my brother and I agree that we will be returning any time we are craving Mexican in Greensboro!

This place is awesome, we have been multiple times and will definitely continue to. The margs are ridiculously large in a good way. the food is always very fresh and fast. We have ordered takeout and also dinned in and they did great both times. Highly recommend this place to all.

Wow! Just had an amazing breakfast burrito at California Burritos Express on Spring Garden Rd. Super fresh ingredients. Fresh eggs cooked when I ordered. The burrito was huge. It came with some tasty chips and salsa.

This was much better than my recent experiences at the big chain burrito places. Better value, better service and better atmosphere. I look forward to bringing my family here soon.

So, I would consider myself a usual at this spot because the food is amazing and the service is usually up to par. But, today my experience was different. As a pregnant woman I wanted to just come up there and get the usual things I get with my bowl but instead was met with attitude and rudeness by the boy who was making the bowls. He began telling me it would be extra for toppings which I have never experienced unless it was double protein, guac, or queso. He began mumbling things under his breath saying “that’s your problem” after I simply told him this was new to me. I just decided to share my experience as a review today because I would respect if all employees were on the same accord because even another worker there was confused as well with what he was saying.

Absolutely amazing place!! The food is so filling, the place is clean with a very welcoming atmosphere, and the staff are equally as welcoming. I had the Birria pizza and couldn’t finish it at one time, but when I ate it later, it was just as delicious. This was also the first place that I actually finished all of my tortilla chips (and was able to eat them the next day without them being stale). Definitely my new favorite spot, they’re gonna get sick of me

Update: I returned back and ordered the “pizzabirria”.
10/10. I already knew it would be amazing because the taco was so amazing. This is just a lot more. I was able to film a bit while they made it fresh.
I’ll upload more photos as I continue to try new food when I’m in the area.

I had business to do in Greensboro and wanted to try a new Mexican place to review. This was close by so I stopped in. Not only was restaurant new to me, it’s new to the area.
Upon entering, I found out it’s a “fast casual” Mexican concept. However, this isn’t the typical type. There are items on the menu items that are not ‘business as usual” such as Chori-Pollo, ACP and Quesabirria (they also have pizza-birria which is all the rage now). They also have a California burrito w/ French fries inside of it and some other offerings that looks great.
Like others, this is a “choose your items as you go down the line’ type concept. Starting with the entree you have the standards like Burrito, or bowl, but others like nachos, salad, taco salad, tacos and quesadilla. All of these items are the same price, so simple pricing.
Then you have a choice a protein. Choices are Steak, chicken, carnitas, pastor, ground beef, chorizo, grilled shrimp, birrira and veggies. Naturally depending on the choice the price varies.
Along with the protein you have a choice of cilantro rice or seasoned rice, and black beans or pinto beans or for the low carb fans peppers and onions.
After that there are a variety of sauces and FOUR types of pico (regular, mango, pineapple and corn).
Then they have different additions as seen in the photos. You can also get sides of guac, choriqueso or queso. Mexican glass bottled beverages and inhouse made beverages (horchata) and desserts (flan and Tres leches) are offered as well.
As in other Mexican restaurant reviews I do, I went for the Chori-pollo. One quesabirra as well, because I can’t help myself and I saw in the cooler they have homemade Horachata. YES PLEASE!

Ratings:
Quesabirra- This is everything you want in an authentic (beef) quesabirra. Moist and flavorful filling, onion and cilantro, great dipped and grilled wrap, and the consomé turned a homerun into a grand slam. Consomé had a lot of depth. 10/10
Chori-pollo-
Rice- seasoned rice was moist and spiced well. Not under or overpowering.
Beans- Whole beans w/ nice flavor. Solid
Chicken- moist, flavorful, again, not over or underwhelming
Chorizo- ground, spiced well
Gauc- balanced and robust with a nice consistency. Not too chunky, not too smooth.
Pico (regular)- was standard
The entire bowl was a 10++
Served with chips and salsa. Chips are corn, and usually I am not a fan of yellow corn chips as I find the flavor of corn “not good”. These however, had a mellow corn flavor and went well with the salsa. Salsa had a hint of heat and a very good consistency not too chunky or thin.
Horchata- To be honest, I’ve only discovered horchata like 6 month ago. I love it, and I’ve had some amazing ones and some BAD ones. This ranks up there with one of the amazing ones.

Inside Atmosphere: Clean and simple. Not overly colorful or heavily decorated like a lot of Mexican restaurants can be. Music playing with authentic and nice.

I met the owner while I was there and talked to him for a little while. EVERYTHING is fresh, and it shows. Along with that they are using authentic Mexican family recipes.
I cannot remember what the customer after me ordered, but when he did, they put the protein on the flattop and prepared it for him on the spot, so it was nice and fresh for him.
There is an outside area for sitting in the warmer months and alcohol is coming soon.

To finish up this review, I will say this. If you are anywhere near this place and want this type of food, you are literally throwing away your money going Chipotle/Moes and other concepts similar to them. Go local, go fresh, go family owned with true authentic food not to mention amazingly friendly service. I hope they will have a location closer to me sooner than later.
