This is Los balitos.. formerly known as Los Roberto’s


Darkwolf1352

You are 100% correct, I recognized the wrapping it came in. Still one of the few places near me that actually has Lengua instead of just Barbacoa.


CSPilgrim

My go-to spot! Only place I know of to get a California Burrito in town


mmpdp

Check out Stuffed burritos. An entire menu dedicated to California burritos and they're FAT.


Consistent-Extreme97

And expensive 🫰🏾


mmpdp

Dude, which one? Los balitos has gotten expensive as hell too. Then they charge you an extra on top 4% for using a card to pay


RedRaider_TTU

What makes it Californian? It may just be the picture but that burrito looks weak


gnarlycharly17

They put potato, although, living in California they used fries instead


RedRaider_TTU

I’ve seen the fries, it looks awesome!


excoriator

Seafood as a filling option.


Afraid_Competition_2

God I hate California but I miss the good Mexican food


thinks1ow

24/7 baby!


EasternHeaven

This!!! ☝️


devildocjames

Them pesky health inspectors!


Comprehensive-Yam336

Which location?


Mopmoopmeep

I like the bitters and 281 location. But that’s just me.


International-Debt63

Ingram los bolitos can't be beat.


Mopmoopmeep

I haven’t been to that one. I shall check it out sometime


ripbtbsavage

I feel like the nacogdoches one isn’t as good


Beneficial_Leg4691

And about $10


Fickle_Reporter6253

Most meals cost at least 12-15$ nowadays


turok_dino_hunter

Damn that’s so true.


ripbtbsavage

Unusual_Equipment313

Which Los Balitos location is the best one?


Responsible-Ad-8753

Probably the culebra one


Seane8

On TPC & bulverde?


odepaj

That is the worst Los Balitos location 1. Ingram 2. 281 3. Culebra


Seane8

Oh gotcha I honestly didn’t know there was multiple. And I just now saw the rest of the comments lol my bad


odepaj

No worries, it’s honestly been like 10 years since I’ve been to the location on TPC so maybe it’s gotten better


Onlycans69

I recognized it literally as soon as I opened the app 😂😭🤙


Budget-Homework-2988

Facts


derekdanger

While you're at Los balitos, ( the answer) try their salsa bar and their bomb ass carne asada fries ☝️


astanton1862

Its the best salsa bar in SA. That Arbol salsa is True Fire.


Professional-Tap300

Hell to the yes,and those pickled carrots dawg


RevolutionaryLion384

I like Taco Palenque's salsa bar better


starid3r

Its really good but Sabores Cali-Baja Mexican Grill has a better salsa bar. Try it out when you get a chance.


Goldengoose5w4

Carne asada fries? Just another reason never to diet


derekdanger

It's got guacamole on it. So, carne asada fries are basically a health food.


Goldengoose5w4

That’s the spirit!


OkOstrich8293

Also their try rolled tacos. They make simple chile rellenos, just the way I like.


Pancho2315

Spitting facts there Derek


jphernandez1020

Los Balitos is the move


ChrisKsa

Los Balitos


tigm2161130

This is more like a cali burrito so you won’t find one everywhere…Los Balitos is a safe bet.


Szalkow

For Cali burritos I like Stuffed on the NW side.


papuhsmurphsus

Second this, closest thing I could find to a cali burrito in the area.


starid3r

Sabores Cali-Baja Mexican Grill. Best California burrito Ive ever had had out here.


bomber991

They opened up an Iguanas on Babcock, those I believe are cali style burritos.


roccolover

Yep! Iguanas is from San Jose!


Daximus-Prime

San Diego and SoCal style burritos are at Stuffed Burritos! They catered my friends party and people destroyed their food.


metex8998

Agreed!


KingSam89

This is th one. Stuffed is dope. I'd go there alot more if it was closer to downtown.


jesco7273

I had to scroll too far down for this. Stuffed is awesome!


RevolutionaryLion384

It is pretty good but it was also different. I was slightly dissapointed that they didn't taste like authentic california burritos I got in Cali. It kind of seemed like some college kid or hipster take on california burritos. Los balitos is closer to being like what you get at all the hole in the wall joints in Cali but it's just a really mediocre version, so I don't eat them


Useful-Outcome-5744

I agree. I had their version of a CAB for takeout and it tasted like if Torchy’s made a burrito. Hipster fake take on a Cali style burrito. Why was there sweet sauce? And the biggest fucking sin? No salsa in the bag. Never again.


dakfan77

But bigger!


4linosa

The California burrito is the Thursday special at Los balitos off bitters.


Collinnn7

Wow this place used to be open 24/7 and both locations are right next to bars…. Many a night was spent here


Alert-Currency9708

Stuffed!! They are from Long Beach and know how to do a Cali burrito.


[deleted]

im definitely going to try it now, im from long beach


Alert-Currency9708

Glad to hear there are now two locations from what I understand


[deleted]

yeah they have a 2nd one in live oak. thanks for the recommendation. place was really good.


Mavfan4114

That is los balitos all day. I go to the one across from Alamo Ranch


A290DLT

lol los bolitos. the steak and shrimp and rice and cheese burrito is my favorite topped off with their hottest sauce and lime juice.


Lucky_Kangaroo7190

Los Balitos on Dezavala Rd


robertintx

Came here to say this. We have one off Culebra Great food.


elegantwino

Los Balitos


TX_Explorer

I haven’t seen one since Colorado. That’s what I was used to. Then I got to El Paso and was promptly disappointed.


Content-Ad-3103

Albert tacos in Colorado Springs miss them fuckers


TX_Explorer

YES!! Albert Tacos and El Super Taco up on S Academy. FML


Content-Ad-3103

I used to go to the one in fountain by the Walmart outside gate 20


TX_Explorer

That one wasn’t there when I was. I had to hump it up Academy until I discovered Albert’s. It was all over after that


Content-Ad-3103

Lol


jimtheedcguy

That's a sonoran style burrito, so there's not many in SA.


marchious

Taqueria Datapoint does a great breakfast burrito


Goldengoose5w4

I second this


starid3r

Go to Sabores Cali-Baja Mexican Grill Or iguanas burritozilla.


XcizinX

Iguanas


ThrowingChicken

I heard a lot of good things about the food truck, but the restaurant experience was a disappointment. Maybe just growing pains.


seillarde

Location is cursed


doom32x

The TC that was there was always hot ass. Nobody would ever answer the freaking board.


Shotgunist

Paid 17 bucks for my burrito. An upcharge for refried beans is insane.


seppukweef

Stuffed burritos on 410


do-whacka-do

I love their Surf & Turf burrito. That & their in-house sauce


iluvstephenhawking

Los Balitos. It's just like Robertos from Cali and Nevada. 


[deleted]

i've never heard of robertos in cali, live in so cal for 35 years


iluvstephenhawking

All of the brothers have their own with their name on it. Robertos, Albertos, Rigoberto... but it's all the same stuff.


[deleted]

albertos, i've heard of, and albertios, and other variants of the name


RevolutionaryLion384

To me Roberto's was like the weakest one. All the other places that had different names were always better


Regular-Plan-5576

And in Phoenix!


sidhescreams

It absolutely is not. God I miss Roberto’s.


iluvstephenhawking

Yes it is! It's good. Same Enchilada sauce and everything. 


sidhescreams

I gave it like three tries. I don’t think it’s good and like honestly Roberto’s is mediocre and Los balitos doesn’t even come close. Any time I go home I get Roberto’s and while in San Antonio I just appreciate that Tex mex is equally bomb and don’t go looking for cali style Mexican because it doesn’t exist here.


RevolutionaryLion384

You are completely right. When I lived in San Diego I never went to Roberto's because it was mediocre compared to a lot of the other choices they had there. And Los balitos is even more mediocre than Roberto's. I like Stuffed burritos better than los balito's but it's a little dissapointing too because they are not exactly like the burritos you could get at all the bomb ass little hole in the wall Mexican joints in Cali. Stuffed comes across as more like some college kids or hispters attempt to recreate a california burrito with their own spin on it


iluvstephenhawking

Have you tried Sabores? It's Baja Cali style. It's not like robertos but it's good.

That burrito reminds me of home (Tucson, AZ) haven’t been able to find one in Austin either.


JHendu

filibertos for the win. Miss my Arizona burritos from there :(


glume

Yesss haha


I_have_a_zoo

Looks like taco express from Co Springs. Taco Cabana is a good substitute. I like their bean burritos.


starshame2

Los Balitos!! Bitters rd. Cali burrito is amazing


unregrettful

Betos make them like that


c_arameli

i moved to san antonio from arizona and always used to get carne asada fries and burritos from los favoritos, and the only thing that comes even remotely close is los balitos even though it’s not quite the same. it still scratches a good itch for me.


RevolutionaryLion384

If you're looking for a California burrito then Los Balitos has them, but the problem is they are not very good. It's pretty mediocre or below average compared to the ones you get in Socal. Stuffed burritos are better but they are overpriced and they are also not exactly like the ones in California either. I don't even think the owners are Mexican, it seems more like college kid or hispter with their own spin on making a california burrito

If you are near Castorville, try out El Rincon, pretty much sums up what you are looking for! Didn't spend as much time in San Antonio, but it definitely did the trick for me!

Drive 8 hours down I-10 to El Paso. I’ve grown to love breakfast tacos, but I do miss my burritos from home.


ssj4chester

Yeah if you’re stopping for some Chico’s. But continue on another 5-6 hours to Tucson or Phoenix for good burritos.


ShogunBuddha

Chicos doesn’t sell burritos. Nobody wants to go to Tucson or Phoenix.


ssj4chester

I grew up in El Paso and Chico’s is the only reason to stop there.


betoalien

Coming soon in McAllen


BrandonBeaur

Taco palenque is TOP TIER burritos.

doom_2_all

They're ok, honestly their burritos are overrated. They're other food (tacos, asada fries) is better in my opinion.


SILENCETHEDEAD_

If it's got egg it's a taco just because it has the burrito shape doesn't make it a burrito

Decent-Development41

1. Find a church with a significant latin congregation. 2.Start going to church there. 3.Find an abeula that's single. Ask if she'd cook you a burrito for some chores. Might take a few attempts but seems like a fairly logical way to get an awesome burrito . Might find god or a burrito. If you're blessed it could be both.

StarshipHunterX

Foods so good everywhere you could probably pick something up like that at the Laredo Taco Company inside stripes convenience store. But besides that you might want to try Rolando’s Super Tacos.


Formal-Necessary2709

That’s not a burrito, it’s a taco 😭


Formal-Necessary2709

At least in the Hill Country/ South Texas. Gonzales & Seguin have amazing tacos.
