Famous Grill
7.7
A South Side grill menu that treats burritos as part of the combo ecosystem—built to travel, built to fill you up, and usually paired with fries. It’s the move when you want a burrito in the same universe as wings, sandwiches, and late-day comfort food.

Vegetarian options: Limited—possible to customize a burrito with beans, rice, and vegetables, but not a dedicated vegetarian focus.
