The Fighting Burrito - Ames

Fighting Burrito has been one of my favorite spots for quite some time. Unfortunately, I don't live or work downtown, so I can't visit as often as I'd like. However, I make it a point to stop by whenever I'm in the area. The food is consistently excellent.

Fresh local ingredients, knowledgeable staff, fast service, and they deliver or you can order online and pick it up. Best burritos I’ve ever eaten!

While many reviews mention long wait times for food delivery, which can indeed be the case at times, I wouldn’t hold that against this spot if you're in the mood for a great burrito. There are moments when restaurants find themselves short-staffed without any warning, and it’s not uncommon for a sudden influx of 20 orders to come in at once. It happens. Just heat up your burrito and enjoy it for what it is: a fast-food burrito. Personally, I've had plenty of tasty burritos straight out of the fridge!

The food was fantastic! I placed my order online, and it was ready right on time!

I've ordered from here 4 times at this point, and I'm a tough critic. I've read up and found that for any and essentially all reasons this place is not only better tasting than it's competitors, but far more friendly and efficient. A close second to all of this, in a bind, they deliver in either one of there 2(? Nissan Leaf's, or a Honda Fit. As a bonus factor, almost all of the people I've met that work there, are friendly, educated, and well spoken. Saving the best for last, they are cheaper than their competition. Getting mostly locally grown and raised food, that tastes amazing, at a price that the other places can't compete with? They need to find a way to expand ever so slowly, and not lose site of their goals, and they would OUST anyone else.
