ee burritos restaurant

we use to go in to eat or take out at least once a week. we loved it. since the new owners took over we've been there twice. it was really bad both times and we will never go back. the new owner is terrible!! it's so sad that it's going downhill considering how hard the old owners worked to build it.

first timer. i went on a recommendation for the first time on friday night, the young girl who served us was so nice and definitely had trouble with english so she messed up the no onions but definitely made up on it for charm and attentiveness. she left after her shift and we were there until late and then the service less attentive but okay.the mixed pupusa was delicious, so was the lemon tortilla soup, but the taco ehh average.the pina colada was the best ever!. dont order a caesar as it was weird color and awful, couldnt drink it. love the music and lessons and the after lesson music but they just need to turn down the volume a bit as it is way too loud in that small atmosphere but i think that is a latin thing the louder the better as in mexico, music same way screaming loud! only thing they have to really watch out for is keeping the riffraff out from that area, and they try to do that, my sister was yelled at by some nutjob who came in and was screaming at her about bringing disease in the place we were frightened as he was literally standing over her and yelling as we sat at the table and the waitress went to get the owner i assume, who escorted him out but we were a bit leary of leaving late around 11:00pm as this weirdo was standing outside the door.i think they need to have a bouncer to keep the local "20th street area" characters out of the place as a couple almost started a fight and it was a pity as we were really enjoying watching the dancing and the rest of the partrons were just people out having a good time dancing and socializing.
would i go there again , for sure but they need to keep a tight rein on the place and not let it slide into slum hangout.
also i would agree the 4.99 avocado is real bad business and the one little tiny sour cream container with taco bad cheapskate too, as hey sourcreme is cheap! so owners take heed this place could be a great shining star in saskatoon if you straighten a few things up. there are alot of really good restaurants in saskatoon and very competitve place and the best way to kill your business is the above mentioned things.

usually good. this place is usually good.

fresh burritos. i was not expecting much from the outside but as usual you can not judge a book by its cover. awesome,tasty, and fresh

guilty pleasure. in spite of the hit-or-miss service, the food at ee burritos is fantastic! one of the very few latin-american restaurants in saskatoon and the best among them.

i've been there 3 times i total. once with the old management, and twice with the new. the old management was so much better!
our servers didn't speak english so it took ten minutes for them to get our orders right. and on top of that, guacamole used to be a free option for a side and you got a heaping pile of it. now it's five frigging dollars and you get one of those little ketchup cups full. i was appalled at this change. five dollars for a mouthful of guacamole. give me a break.
also the at two times i've been there i've had some sort of allergic reaction where my eyes start watering and become really dry. its painful and both times i've seen other customers experiencing the same thing. like their cutting up large amounts of onions or something. overall the food is decent but dont waste your money on the guacamole.

can be good and/or bad. after eating here numerous times over the past year i have decided to write a review. when this places serves good food it is truly excellent, but sometime the meat is dry and chewy or another time my drink came in a dirty glass that was clearly dirty. when the food is made right, the meat is tender and moist, the rice is fluffy and the food is nice and hot. other times, not so great. the worst thing to happen was taking the guacamole out as a choice of side and charging 4.99 for it, this is not justified, avocados are cheap and so is guacamole. too bad the guacamole was good and now i just won't order it. staffing is also hit and miss, sometimes the staff seem to not care to check on your drinks or leave you waiting forever to take your order other times it's server excellence. this could be a great restaurant, bring back the guac and try to be more consistent with service and food quality. i will still eat here, but if food and service continue to decline i will stop.

edit july,

we went back and while the food was good this time, the jalapeño steak burrito was amazing, the drink came in a dirty glass again. we will not return again for a year, i will always give a second chance, but only after giving a restaurant time to turn things around.

good food, not so good service. the staff is never the same, they usually don't understand orders and they rarely bring water.

but, the food is amazing, always delicious and very authentic.

used to be good. we ate there many times under the old management and thought the food was good. our last few trips food quality had gone down hill and so had the service. turns out the had new ownership. i ordered a steak buritto and my friend ordered a steak fajita and they were exactly the same thing when they came to our table! really? we had a large group and food came out sporadically over a forty minute period, the first dish coming 35 minutes after ordering it and lots was wrong or cold. our refried beans were ice cold and don't think they were ever warm as the cheese was not ever melted on top, straight out of can. your money is better spent at taco time sorry to say. i used to really enjoy this place. i don't recommend it anymore.

i have a love hate relationship with this place. food is always decent to really good, but service is really hit or miss.

may not look like much from the outside but the service and food are good and fresh. authentic and reasonable value. staff were attentive and i didn't have to ask for extra stuff.

since change of ownership this place lacks the feel and food quality it had before. asked to change out salad for just a second serving of rice. server said ok. when my meal came it had salad and i told the waitress and she said they would fix it. came back to the table and told me that they can't do that with the specials(ordered mexican shrimp). never had a problem any other time i have ordered it before change of ownership.

not impressed.. i can't understand why people like this place. i love mexican food but i don't like this place. the owner appears to be a nice guy from el salvador but he seems really stingy with the food portions. and why is his food so bland and expensive? i've tried this place three times (because people keep insisting it's good) and each time i ordered something different and paid around $15 - $20 for lunch. i was disappointed every time. why are the food portions so small? why do i only get 3 tortilla chips on my plate? can't they afford to give you more food? i left hungry all three times. i expect to leave full and satisfied when paying over 15 bucks for a lunch. three strikes, you're out amigo. i will never go back.
how i miss chi chi's mexican restaurant!

excellent dinner. amazing food and the service was the best i have ever hd here!
i had the mexican shrimp, the oldest grandchild had shrimp burritos and his younger brother had a plain quesadillos.
all supremly good and served by a very happy freindly waiter!
in the famous words of j. s. "i'll be bach"

so disappointed! i used to love going there, the food was great and so tasty but the service was mediocre. i hadn't been there since the management changed but i was peckish and bought the pulled pork burrito-my standard. it was actually pathetic. the rice tasted like minute rice with chilli spice, the refried beans were good but the portion was smaller and the burrito was an insult. it was cold, moderately sprinkled with iceberg lettuce and what tasted like a dried out pork kebab with a spoonful of sour cream lurking in a conspicuous lump at the bottom of the wrap. the meal was a slap in the face of what ee burritos used to be.
