    Some incredibly, tasty, smokey, BBQ with just the right Mexican ingredients for a burrito. http://bit.ly/1mnrV7U

    Ripoff of Dos Toros, but better than Chipotle. Food is good. Customer service sucks. If the sign says you open at noon, you open at noon, not 12:15pm cuz I see your family eating inside. #LostBusiness

    Try some guacamole on your favorite thing on the menu. No extra charge for it either!

    Maybe I didn't get the right thing (chicken instead of Weekly Smoke) but it wasn't better than Chipotle and far inferior to Dos Toros.

    "How do we convey 'Dos Torros' but better?" "I know, call it 'Tres Torros'." "Too obvious." "'Tres Carnes'?" "Perfect."

    I feel a bit guilty for cheating on my beloved Chipotle but well worth it! Spicy sauce not spicy enough for me.

    Get the chicken or the pork. Doesn't matter because they taste exactly the same.

    Burritos. Slight step up from Chipotle. Hipper atmosphere, more attitude, higher prices.

    If you're having trouble deciding, you can do half-and-half of two meats.

    This place is like Chipotle if you like really smokey meats. But I don't. So I'd rather go down the block to Chipotle. It ain't no Dos Toros I'll tell ya that.
