Master Critic Review
B'klyn Burro
8.0
A Clinton Hill burrito specialist with a clear Mission-style blueprint—big wraps, a salsa bar mentality, and a format built for fast, satisfying repetition. It’s at its best when you go one burrito (no over-customizing), grab chips, and eat it while it’s still hot and sealed.
Must-Try Dishes:
Carne asada burrito, Shrimp burrito, Chips with salsa bar
