2.0 of 5 stars. Every time we order, they mess it up somehow. We say no beans, and after taking a bite into the burrito, beans are practically spurting out. They are stingy with their burrito sauce, and if you visit…

I've been going to the Almaden Burrito Factory since 1992. I love Super Burritos. Back then if you ordered a Super Burrito, you would need to take your leftovers home. Lately I have been disappointed with the...
