Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Barbacoa Burrito

Aug 2019 • solo

The best burrito. 7.50 for burrito and can (student menu). You can take away and eat in the park. Very low price for Dublin for this quality.

If you tire of Pub food, this is a great place for Mexican fare on the Emerald Isle

Our daughter recommended this place after her visit while studying abroad. It has a Nacho Libre theme which was entertaining for us as we love that movie. That said, we gobbled up the burritos in a jiffy and there is plenty to see and do once one finishes. Clean and reasonably priced too.

Looks like a high, delivers a low

Jul 2019 • friends

I wouldn't be too picky with Burritos usually and don't normally get them unless I'm feeling something dirty, and bang full of flavour. My experience just didn't quite hit the mark. Kudos for providing a totally vegan option on the menu, but the delivery of it was poor. As Burritos in Dublin go, there is a hierarchy and this one will be near the bottom until further notice. I ordered the Mega Vegano, which contrary to is name is simply the same size as other burritos from them and not nearly the size of a small baby as I am accustomed to. I ordered the second hottest salsa with this Burrito and also at the same time paid for my friends mild one. Upon receiving the Wrap, we were strictly told that the one with the red sticker was the hot one. Wrong, upon unwrapping this was deemed to be not the case, but not until I had eaten half of what I would have deemed a very mildly spiced and poorly seasoned meal. Meanwhile, my friend was suffering through the spice as much as they could until we realised much too late. The rice itself was tasteless and the texture terrible and the fillings were nothing special, with no strong flavours throwing themselves out at you. Overall not the best experience, but I may try again at another branch of the chain,

Used to be great, not anymore

This was one of my favourite burrito places in Dublin, but it started going downhill just before Christmas. I don’t know if it’s just this branch or all of them, but it’s really put me off. The guacamole is almost always brown now and the burritos are very bland.

Bad hygiene, rude staff and soggy wraps!

Feb 2019 • family

A friend and I attended your restaurant recently. When I ordered (vegan burrito) I was immediately appalled at the fact there was no tin foil under the wraps and they were placed straight on to the counter top that was covered in filth. The customer service was horrendous and the staff seemed unhappy and were not able to understand what we said vice versa. After waiting 25 minutes for only two burritos we were becoming increasingly agitated, the burritos were sitting on the greasy grill/warmer not covered in tinfoil (naked if you must) for 10 more minutes. We had ordered them to take away and all we got in the bag was the burrito, no napkins, no cutlery (burritos are extremely messy and we had difficulty eating them without spilling it on ourselves). The food was just as bad as the service, cold, soggy and tasteless, they forgot both salsas in the two burritos. I was shocked at how bad my experience was and will not be returning anytime soon. I reccommend Mama’s revenge only 10mins away and 10 times better!!

Bland and poor customer service

Nov 2018 • friends

This place has very rude servers and their food is very blend. My friends and I were forcing the food into our mouth because we were so hungry. The ladies are so mean at the counter, it was our first time and they barely gave us time to pick the dish we want. We had to order the first or second name of dish that came in sight. Never visiting again.

Flavour and excellent price

Oct 2018 • solo

I'm a regular customer from this shop and I also go sometimes at the other shop on Temple Bar. Well, what to say... The flavour is amazing, there's condiments, which is difficult to find at Dublin with an affordable price. About the customer service, at the both shops that I use to go (Dawson and Aston Quay), I always receive an excellent service, because staff there are friendly and careful, the place is clean and organized. Thanks Pablo

Perfect quick meal

Jun 2018 • friends

We wanted something we could eat quickly, without any fuss. The four of us each had a different burrito, with a variety of fillings (one veggie) and different spice strengths. It's fairly priced with a good student deal - would recommend for a lunch or light dinner. Unlike other restaurants in the chain there's not a huge space for seating but we did manage to sit outside. A yummy burrito :)

Cheap, quick and tasty mexican with loyaty cards

Oct 2018 • solo

Used to go to the one on Baggot St. often but find the standard the same across them all so frequent Dawson St. more often now. My preferred burrito provider so glad they do loyalty cards now too - 1 in ten free. They also do a decent student deal. +Menus available online +lots of salsa options The bean and cheese (w/ feta and guac) is a nice smaller option. But the Vitorio Verde in a bowl is a good veggie option too. Love their smokie salsa.

Burrito bem quentinho

Burrito comes really warm, different from other burrito places in the city. I do recommend it for lunch or dinner.

Disappointing

Sept 2018 • solo

I used to get burritos from Pablo Picante on Baggot street. Pretty satisfied with the quality in the past has decided to give it a go at Dawson street - which was a mistake. First of all, in size it felt much smaller. Secondly, some pieces of meat were semi-dry, and I have a hunch some of them were not chicken I've ordered. And the last bit - the taste was, hmm, well, there was no much taste there...
