Savage Burrito is a "ghost kitchen" that operates out of Uncle Julio's Restaurants. It is delivery-only and online ordering only--no phone number. But since it's a separate brand I thought it deserved its own review. We ordered dinner the other day--an O.G. burrito, a build-your-own burrito and a build-your-own bowl. Also got a soda, some chips and queso and some churro bites.
The burritos were tasty--the beef was very tender and had good flavor, and the other ingredients complemented it well. The tortilla was sturdy enough to hold all the food and folded properly, so it was easy to pick it up to eat. It was also tender enough to enjoy all the way to the end.The chips and queso were also very good. The chips were very thin and fresh, so they had a great crunch. The queso had more than average salt, but the jalapenos (Hatch chiles on the menu) mixed in were very good and the queso was great with the chips. The churro bites were very good, particularly if you eat them first when they are still warm and at their lightest and crunchiest. But even if you save them for the end they are well above average. They are served with chocolate sauce, which I personally prefer to Nutella. The drinks are just regular sodas and waters, no need to order if you have them around the house.
Service was excellent--the DoorDash order came well ahead of schedule, and everything was packed neatly in the bag. The only thing that knocks this review down is that the custom burrito included roasted corn, which we didn't want. It's difficult to get custom items right, but could be important for customers with allergies.
Ordering this way is not cheap, with tips and fees it was about $15 per person, but it's a good value.
