Bueno Y Sano is one of the places in Vermont that i enjoy for lunch or dinner when i crave a big quesadilla or burito. Food is delicious and quickly served. It’s a self service format place that i enjoy either dive in or as a take out.
It has big portions.

Great location for breakfast, lunch, and dinner! Would recommend if you need a quick eat-and-go meal. Only complaint is food was a little cold, but food was great otherwise.

Great place to stop for a quick bite before going to the Flynn for a show. Fresh ingredients, delicious food, great service! We had a chipotle chicken bowl, a Thai peanut burrito, & a pork burrito!

I wanted to like my meal, I really did. It was the wettest bowl ever (like why was my rice soaking wet with a puddle ?) couldn’t even make a dent in it before it went in the trash. Chipotle is a HUGE step up from this and I can’t believe I wrote that sentence.

All the ingredients are fresh and you can see the staff making tortilla chips right behind the counter. Thai burritos is spicy but flavorful.

I’ve tried Bueno Y Sano three different times since they opened in the Blue Mall on Dorset Street all with the same disappointing results. Each time I ordered a chicken taco on corn tortilla and 2 beef tacos on flour tortilla. Both were to be dressed with their hot salsa and sour cream. They consistently left off the sour cream on all and only the chicken taco had the hot salsa on it. Also it took like 15-ish minutes to receive the order. Finally when the steak taco was made it was cut in half and called two separate tacos. At $15.00 it isn’t inexpensive to eat here. About the only saving grace was the corn salsa on the salsa bar. It was fiery spicy and delicious. I left here disappointed.

Tasty burritos, bowls and tacos for those on the go! Bueno Y Sano has great options for carnivores and vegetarians with some very unique flavor combinations. Of course, traditional options are available too.
Dining solo for this stop I chose the chipotle chicken burrito with medium heat sauce. I did stop by during the lunch rush so my order did take longer than usual to prepare. But, no worries! I enjoyed a Heady Topper beer while I waited. I also grabbed a bit of their hot sauce to try … nice and SPICY! A pleasant surprise.
Burrito in hand, I first notice that the flour tortilla is quite nice. Definitely a better quality than the typical fast food restaurants, and I’m wondering if the tortillas are from the local All Souls Tortilleria in Burlington. The burrito was STUFFED! The chicken was tender, and nicely chipotle sauced. The medium hot sauce was very good, and the addition of the hot sauce gave the heat level a nice kick. The burrito also included black beans, lettuce, pico de gallo, rice, and sour cream.
Overall, a very good burrito for a quick stop, and I appreciate that it is not a chain restaurant. Give Bueno Y Sano a try next time you’re craving Mexican flavors!

I got the chicken bowl $9.25, not bad but could make the same thing myself at home. Typical tex/mex same as you would get from moes or chipolte. None of the workers seemed to be in a good mood and it wasn’t even busy.

Although I wasn’t expecting much going into this place, I still managed to be disappointed with my experience at this restaurant.
Firstly, they didn’t have carnitas on the menu and instead just provided generic pork which surprised me because I thought carnitas was a pretty basic baseline option for any sort of Mexican restaurant to serve but I guess not here.
Secondly, when the food came out, I thought they gave me the wrong order because when I opened the bag, I saw roughly what’s in the image attached. If you couldn’t tell they were supposed to be tacos, I wouldn’t blame you, it fooled me too. I asked the staff if perhaps some sort of mixup had occurred but they (patiently and politely) reassured me that the dish before me was, in fact, two tacos, just with an “unconventional” twist.
Slightly perturbed by the two prior dilemmas, I began to chow down and was annoyed to realize that the “tacos” were not in the least bit spicy! Bear in mind that I had explicitly ordered the “spicy” option (which is rare for me in most places) simply because I had already assumed that the “mild” or “medium” would be weak sauce in this establishment. I was truly amazed to learn that even the spicy option packed zero punch whatsoever. Listen, I am as White as they come and this “spice” failed to even register on my decidedly Anglo-Saxon tastebuds. I can only imagine a born-and-bred Mestizo attempting to enjoy this dish.
The one upside of my experience here was that the service was friendly and I received my mediocre food quickly and efficiently.
In closing, I would say that it might be more accurate to describe this place as a Mediterranean restaurant as opposed to Mexican, given the fact that my “tacos” more resembled a gyro if anything else. Maybe I’m being too harsh on a foreign food restaurant in Vermont but I figured every corner of the US would have Mexican food on lock at this point.
P.S. Reading this review back, I’m not trying to make this a racial thing as I have had excellent Latin American cuisine that was cooked and prepared by other White people. I just hope this specific place tries a new approach and perhaps gets someone else in the kitchen.

The spicy chipotle chicken burrito bowl was so good and flavourful. It is more authentic than fast food chains like Chipotle. The portion was HUGE. There’s a salsa bar as well.
