3 /5 Chassidy T: Tried Aracelys for the first time for lunch as my boyfriend was craving burritos & wanted to try a new place.
I cant say much about the service or ambiance as my boyfriend ordered for pick up. But, I got a Regular Steak burrito (which included cheese & sour cream) and he got a Super Steak burrito.
The burritos are visibly large, however they lacked flavor. I guess it doesnt make it easy as someone that grew up in the Mission District where burritos are hard to mess up considering it was pretty solid wherever you go.
Personally, Im used to my asada not being marinated and having a char to it which is where most of the flavor would typically come from. However, the asada here is actually marinated in red sauce as if it was al pastor. Additionally, there was lettuce and pretty large cuts of tomato which made the burrito feel a little less authentic as Im not used to that in my burritos.
The burrito unfortunately lacked flavor to the point where my boyfriend had to use our table salt to season it a bit. We unfortunately agreed that we likely wouldnt come back for burritos here again.
