Lucky Burrito: Reviews & Ratings

I ordered a burrito dinner and it was very good. Order was made super fast as well. Food was seasoned and the portion was big enough for leftovers. The lady at the counter is very nice and attentive. It’s a small restaurant but you can sit down to eat and get an order of chips and pico which was also good and spicy. Definitely will visit this place again. Prices are also reasonable.

The food was delicious and the customer service was top notch. My husband is a vegetarian and the chef came out and spoke with him and told him he can make him anything he would like without meat.

My wife and I are so glad we discovered this place. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by genuinely polite and welcoming staff. The food comes out quickly every time, and you can tell there’s consistency in the kitchen — it’s always on point. We’ve been here at least 6–7 times so far and have tried the steak, pastor, and chicken tacos. The meat is always high quality with no gristle, and the tortillas are soft and fresh every single time. And we can’t leave without getting the rice pudding for dessert — it’s become a tradition for us. Highly recommend!

My first visit here has been awesome! A super friendly woman greeted me, and took my order at the counter. I had chips and salsa and a chicken chimichanga and they were a 10 out of 10 on the flavor scale. The chips were fantastic as were the salsas and the pico de gallo. The chicken chimichanga was one of the best I've ever had anywhere.. I also had the Jamaica to drink, sweetened hibiscus based tea that was wonderful with my spicy food! I will definitely be back to this restaurant again and again!

Lucky Burrito has a new home at 13407 S. Ridgeland, and it’s just as amazing as ever! Same great food, all made fresh, and the owners are as friendly and welcoming as always. Whether you’ve been a longtime customer from their old S. Harlem Ave. location or you’re stopping by for the first time, you won’t be disappointed. Fresh ingredients, delicious meals, and great people — highly recommend!
