Master Critic Review

Xurro 8.2
Pilsen
A made-to-order churro counter that wins on freshness—hot, crisp, and built for fillings and dunking. Keep it tight: one filled churro plus one ice-cream-leaning item (sundae or shake) so you get contrast without sugar overload.
Must-Try Dishes: Filled churro, Churro sundae, Horchata
Scores:
Value: 8.2 Service: 7.7 Consistency: 8.5 Food Quality: 8.4 Atmosphere: 6.4 Cultural Relevance: 8
What makes it special: Hot, made-to-order churros with filling options.
Who should go: Dessert-first people and late-afternoon snack crews.
When to visit: Afternoons and early evenings for freshest batches.
What to order: Filled churro, churro sundae, horchata.
Insider tip: Eat immediately—this place is about fresh heat.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; usually manageable mid-afternoon but tighter after 6pm and on weekends.
Dress code: Casual—anything goes; this is a grab-and-go dessert counter.
Noise level: Low to moderate—quick conversations are easy, but it’s not a linger-long space.
Weekend wait: 10–20 minutes during peak dessert rush; lines move quickly.
Weekday lunch: Little to no wait most days.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—most core churro options are vegetarian.
Vegan options: Limited—some plain or sugar-coated churros may be vegan depending on preparation; fillings and ice cream typically are not.
Gluten-free options: No—churros are wheat-based and not gluten-free.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes, as a casual add-on date. It’s great for a quick dessert stop or walk-around treat, but not ideal if you want to sit and talk for a long time.
Can I get a table without a reservation? There’s no reservation system and limited seating—plan to stand, take it to-go, or eat nearby.
Is it kid-friendly? Very—sweet flavors, fast service, and easy portions make it great for kids, though seating is limited.
Best For
Better for: Hot, made-to-order churros with fresh crunch and customizable fillings—this is about immediacy and texture.
Skip if: You want a full dessert café experience with seating, coffee service, or broader pastry variety.
