The Burrito Shack

They have a super friendly staff and very reasonable prices for tasty burritos! The sausage gravy breakfast burritos are really good but the one with the extreme green chili was the best!

I’ve been in here several times.
I LOVE the breakfast burritos. This is the only place in Arvada that makes great breakfast burritos and at a decent price too!
I also love the sloppy tostada crunch. The green chili is amazing.
I’ve never had issues worth customer service. One of the ladies can see me leave my car and pretty much have my order ready, just needing to know if I’m getting 1 or 2 burritos. She’s very friendly.
The other cashier is normal. Not rude, but not very friendly either.
I once even came in with about 5 minutes to closing and a man, whom I believe is one of the owners, was very friendly about roofing me up and not being allowed (because we all hate those that come in so close to closing).

older lady and younger latina that work there seem to have issues with each other. pretty negative vibe 2 out of 3 times I’ve been in. One time the young latina lady «threw» my burritos together as if that was the last thing she was there for. ??? you work there lady. won’t be back.

Customer service lacks. It would be nice if they had their menu posted online or gave out paper menus to customers. Breakfast burrito was very small, totally lacking ingredients. Ordered one with bacon, no bacon.

I have been to this place two times for ok burritos. It’s just a few blocks a way from my house and is very convenient if I am having a craving for average mexican food.
However, I would suggest the woman at the cashier window take some customer service classes. Noticing that she is very friendly with the male customers making small talk with them while being short and curt with me, I think is just rude and very unprofessional.

$ 2.50 breakfast burritos. Perfect size. Medium green chili has a kick just how it should! I’ll be back!

Tried the Burrito Shack today. They are only open until 2pm. At 11:40, when we came in, there was only one person working. No one in front of us, no one waiting for an order and it took 20 minutes after waiting for more than 5 for that person to even come take the order. We ordered two burritos and the jalapeño cheese chips. Because it is carry out only, we did not look in our tied shut bag until we got to our lunch spot which was the other side of town. Our «jalapeño cheese chips» was a box of deep fried flour tortilla squares. No jalapeño, no cheese, but the time was taken to write Jalapeño Cheese Chips on the outside of the box. There is nothing but meat in the burrito. I was a bit disappointed in that as well. There are too many fabulous Mexcian restaurants around to warrant a second try on this one.

So I am not sure if they serve Santiago’s Breakfast Burritos, or just prepare them the same way. They come in foil rolled just like Santiagos and you are not given a choice of protein. So I am thinking, that they may be purchased from Santiagos and reheated.
Even so, they are good. Unlike the flat $ 2 for Santiagos, these come out to $ 2 and change. Be prepared to pay cash.
I had the hot green chili, and it was deliciously spicy.
They are open at 6AM and close at 2PM.

This place was open before the coffeeshop in the same plaza so we gave it a whirl. STUPIDLY inexpensive and AMAZINGLY delicious. So glad we found this place. Super friendly staff, ridiculously speedy service. And the medium was hot for me. Be warned. When I’m on my deathbed, feed me their breakfast burritos until I croak.

I went to the Burrito Shack in Arvada by accident today. I was headed to Subway but detoured over to the Burrito Shack. I ordered a deluxe bean burrito and a breakfast burrito. I had the deluxe for lunch and the breakfast for dinner. It was wonderful and I’ll be back. I had the «Extreme» salsa and it was just right. I think that I caught them during a rush so service was a little slow but I’ll be back. Lo siento, pero, «Adiós Santiago’s.»

This little shack is pretty much awesome but not much to say as you can’t stay to eat with it’s cafeteria style order and go design. The burritos are great but a shy on the small side. Although I’m working on portion control anyway so it works out lol.
Now for the green chili. The hot I can honestly say is some of the best I’ve had, a far cry from my own but that’s another story ;-). Now they have another flavor xxx or dynamite I can’t remember but it wasn’t very hot and the flavor was defiantly lost
So if you go stick with the hot!
