BC Burrito

BC Burrito

BC Burrito has been open in Kaimuki for almost a year and a half. Billing itself as a maker of fresh, made-to-order burritos, they certainly fill the bill. BC Burrito straddles the line between a fast food place and one that builds to order. They also pride themselves on a variety of hot sauces available for your taste buds (while you still have one), and they have an all you can drink self serve soda fountain (one of my prerequisites for a regular lunch place).

The hot sauce selection at BC Burrito

My typical meal there is either a 12 inch or 10 inch chicken mole burrito on wheat (the tortillas come in a variety of types), with cheddar cheese (choice of jack or cheddar, included in the 12 inch but not the smaller sizes), pinto beans (choice of black or pinto), rice, and mild salsa (yeah, call me a wimp). Guacamole and sour cream are available for extra charge. The burritos are served in an aluminum foil wrapper, which is carefully peeled away when eating.

The dining area is relatively small but can seat over 30; there were only a couple of diners when I was there on a Saturday afternoon. The restaurant also offers free wireless Internet access through its access point (password required, ask at the desk). I tend to take the table near the electrical outlet.

Perhaps the biggest drawback to BC Burrito is its lack of parking, which anyone in the Kaimuki area will tell you, is true of the entire area.

All in all, BC Burrito makes a tasty, made-to-order meal at a relatively reasonable price, with the bonuses of a large assortment of hot sauces, an all you can drink soda fountain, and free wireless access, with the downfall of horrid parking. In my book, it’s worth a look.

    Being a fan of spicy, this sounds absolutely delightful! I may even brave the horrid parking situation for a taste!

    On the weekends, the parking situation isn’t so bad. On the weekdays, it’s pretty nasty. So if you have a weekend day free, lunch is pretty fine to go to.

    went there more than a few times already. i noticed that my burrito makers were inconsistent in the quantities. i got less meat etc, compared to the guy before me in line ordering the same thing. i found it insulting.

    Burritos there are amazing. Really if you want some good fresh burritos and not some canned refried bean and oily meat burrito then this is your place.

    Reasonably priced I mean everything is going up so cant really complain. (food needs oil to get to hawaii!)

    Customer service is a bit up and down. you really gotta talk story with the guys and get to know them for them to be really friendly. I found that out and know a few of them now.

    Overall cant complain since they make most of their food in shop and use mostly local produce. (good info from talking story) parking well its the same parking as everyother kaimuki location. There is a parking lot in the back though.

    Would I reccomend it? of course as a fan of the spicy please give it a try!
