Downtown Burritos Cocina Mexicana
8.1
A longtime East Village counter spot known for big, griddled burritos and especially strong breakfast options. The tortillas are pliant, fillings are generously seasoned, and the whole menu leans classic and comforting. Best for a fast, satisfying burrito you can take to Tompkins Square Park.
Must-Try Dishes:
Chorizo & Potato Breakfast Burrito, Smothered Chicken Burrito, Pernil Pork Burrito
