Review from Leah L.

This place is awesome. I believe that it's one of the best around that area because the people seem to be always lining up for it (regardless of the weather, believe me I know).. and you have to try it out if your into burrito or would like to try something new. It's very filing and super affordable that you wont even regret it.
The place is kind of small but I think that's what makes it charming. The people who work there are upbeat and it's fun to watch them make a burrito in front of you. Also, their very peanut conscious (if your allergic to peanuts). And oh, they ONLY take cash... so make sure to withdraw money while your at it. They do have a small atm machine inside the store but I never liked the idea of withdrawing money from there since it's so crowded at times.
Do visit this place when your around the area and see how you like it! -

I had a veggie burrito here early last week, and in hindsight it was just okay. This burrito joint, though in an awesome location (a short walk from the pier) relies upon style more than substance. Speakers blaring out Katy Perry's latest, unfortunately, and minions wearing cute beanies with ample piercings in questionable areas . Am I getting too old to understand why a 'monroe' seems like a good idea?
Anyway, though I always love a solid helping of guacamole my burrito seemed a little, lacking, considering the fanfare and line up at BB. I would have liked a little more cheese and a little more spice. Strange, since I'm not very tolerant to it and I did order Medium Salsa. Maybe I should go with the flow and order a Bro Ho Burrito on my next visit?Listed in: Burritos

The Port Credit location is small. It's the size of a small barber shop, but it's filled with the aroma of delicious meats and embellishment for a burrito lover. The portion of the burritos are magnificent, when you finally get to hold the thing, it's like holding a baby. Not exactly the best analogy but you catch my drift.
The food's worth every penny, come reach if you're around Lakeshore. And bring cash, it'll be needed. Cheers! -

The Halibut burrito is THE BEST!!!! I will never go back to chicken or steak. Definitely worth the few extra bucks! The tortilla is grilled to a crispy finish and it's stuffed with soo much stuff! The weight of it in your hands is like a brick! Be careful with the XXX hot sauce, it's the hottest sauce I've ever had! I ask for 3 drops. The coriander gives the burrito a good kick. The place is small and always has a lineup but the staff are always super friendly and very upbeat. They never seem to tire and always tell me to have a great day! The Port Credit location is by far the best!
ps. I just recently found out that you can mix 2 types of burritos together! I had the Halibut and Shrimp for no extra charge! This place just keeps getting better!!!! -

I absolutely love this place!! I came across one in Toronto first, loved it, and was STOKED to find that there was one in Mississauga too!! I wasn't expecting it to be as good, but it is!!
First of all, the burritos - they're HUGE!! So very filling, and absolutely fantastic. I worked up the nerve to try the fish burritos (they have haddock and halibut) and never looked back, they're delicious!! If you're feelin brave and decide to get some hot sauce, go easy on it - it's pretty damn hot (being West Indian, I know hot - trust me when I say that it's HOT)!!
The staff there is great! It makes for such a great atmosphere when the staff is in a good mood, and they always are at this place!! There's nowhere to eat inside of the restaurant as it's very small, but for the time that you're in there and subjected to the staff, they'll put a smile on your face. :)
The place can get very busy, but I find the staff does a really good job of keeping a steady flow going. Don't let a bit of a line-up discourage you! -

This location is friendly, upbeat & food is fresh and tasty. Don't be fooled by the small place, minimal parking & long lineups. IT's worth the wait.
The ingredients are fresh and is cooked to order. I wouldn't go as far to say this is classic Mexican cooking, but is pretty damn good when you have a burrito craving. I wouldn't drive from Richmond hill if it wasn't.
Recommendations: Halibut Burrito & Steak Burrito
This review has been simple & quick,

Burrito Boyz has opened my eyes to a world where my taste buds and delicious burritos can live harmoniously. I will think twice about going into another Taco Bell in the future. It's been 2 days and I'm still feeling a bit full!
I went to Burrito Boyz at around 3 in the afternoon and I was met with a 15 minute wait. I can only imagine how packed it can be at peak hours. Don't order the large - unless you are a competitive eating champion. You should also make sure nothing prevents you from peacefully digesting an amazing burrito for the next few hours. -
Review from Artur J.
This is where you can get the best burrito in the entire GTA, hands down!! Only con I would say is the long line up, but the trick there is to just call ahead that way u just wait in line to pay and then you walk out with your Burrito ( never fail to get some evil looks from people that have to wait for their burrito to still be made after they paid ).
Plus the Burritos are huge!!! So u definitely are getting an amazing deal here. -

I don't know what it is about this place but I really do not mind waiting in the long lines to get my hands on the nice crisp, fresh, and made to order burrito.
This place is crazy, there are constantly and consistently long lines of people no matter what time of the day you go. The staff are very friendly and are very quick even though it may not seem like it because of the long waits.
Obviously the thing to get is a burrito, but which one? Well you can choose from steak, chicken, halibut, shrimp and vegetarian, or you can combine any of the two just have to pay a little bit more.
There are two different sizes, small or large, but honestly I really do not see the difference between the two, I've had both and the small one fills me up just the same as the large so save your money and stick with the small.
Besides burritos they have quesadias. The quesadias come with the same ingredients as the burritos however they are brutal. I ordered it the one time and haven't ordered it since because I couldn't eat it with my hands I had to take it home and eat it with a fork and I don't EVER recall eating quesadias with a fork before have you?
Great place that will definetly fill you up.

Review from Duck D.

Overrated, low-grade junk food. Have bitten into a chicken bone in my burrito that seemed to be 80% gristle and underseasoned chicken meat. Typical sloppy toppings and disgustinig "burrito sauce" makes it a heavy, sloppy mess. Only one burrito I'd even consider ordering here and it's the shrimp. At least it's cooked to order, from raw. This location is the size of a prison cell, and plays annoying techno music while you wait with your number like the soup nazi episode from Seinfeld.

The first thing you need is earplugs for the music, you will know what I mean when your there, you can't even hear yourself think let alone have their staff here what your telling them when giving your toppings. The burrito itself is like a brick and will sit in your stomach for a long time, the menu is what it is, burritos or the door, not enough to keep me interested, the meat was under-seasoned and way overcooked. I asked for the XXX sauce and was upset when it was just regular hot sauce, they overkill their steal burrito and it ends up being like eating cardboard, save your money or buy a brick and some cardboard.

The burritos are HUGE and for it's size, the price is very affordable for a student. I typically cannot finish one on my own so I always share.
I also like how it's opened late because there are not very many food places (besides pho) that is opened after 10PM.
The only con wold be that the lineups are very long. -
Review from Sondre Lerche and Co L.

We finally got to Toronto around 11pm and desperately needed some food. We did the 'ole YELP search for Indian food and it brought us to a place that was closed, BUT within that same very strip of stores, there was a Burrito joint. YAY! Meat-eaters and vegetarians alike can all rejoice in the mexican fare!
First thing we noticed was the beckoning of today's youth through the sounds of top 40 hits blasting through Speakers OUTSIDE the place. Kind of a rare thing for any establishment, especially a mexican one. I asked my friend Ardith Birchall about this, and she said they all do it in an effort to attract "the kids from the clubs." This is all fine and good, but the first song we heard playing over the speakers was that track "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers. Sooooooo...great strategy if you wanna get all the kids from the clubs back in 2005. Actually, they're probably real hungry after stepping outside for the first time in 6 years.
This is a popular Canadian chain of Burrito spots that all the folks (young and old...drunk and sober) hit up at some point in the night, so there's no need for me to get into the fact that they started to close up before taking our order, ran out of meat, (thereby rendering all power to the vegetarian) or forgot to put guacamole inside our burritos; but I WILL get into the story of just how Burrito Boyz came to be. It's a captivating one. One that we can all agree HAD to be told and will only become more and more enigmatic as the years progress. It's a story rich in heritage that will one day put Mississauga, Ontario on the map, along with every other town astute enough to embrace the famed Boyz of Burrito. Canada should consider itself lucky to be endowed with the brilliance of these 2 entrepreneurs and their majestic story can be found proudly displayed on the wall of any and all Burrito Boyz locations....yes, it's THAT good!
Here it goes:
Once upon a time in the late 90's, two guys had finished a long night of partying. They found themselves standing on a street corner when one guy says, "I'm hungry." Then the other guy said, "Yeah, me too. I want a burrito." And the rest is history...
(no joke. This is what it says on the wall of Burrito Boyz)
We ate in the van, cuz the "ambience" was killing us, but in all honesty, those burritos were tasty.

I ordered the popular chicken burrito and it was just meh - I couldn't taste the different flavours and ingredients. One thing I liked is that the service is extremely efficient. I will most likely come back and try it again.

Have to agree with everyone so far. My favorite part is that they ask you how spicy you want it when you request spicy. Other places just assume the level of spice. The size of these Burritos is incredible!!! I recommend calling ahead. That way you do not stand in line waiting. It is CASH ONLY, so bring plenty. It's worth it!! They currently have 3 locations in the GTA, Toronto, Etobicoke (Long Branch), Mississauga (Stavebank)

For some reason, I got a better burrito at the Lakeshore (Stevebak) location then at Dundas. Good food, and can be made very spicey!

Best Burritos, hands down. I love this place so much, everything is super fresh and flavorful. You have to make a trip here, it's really nice that they brought this gem out to suburban Mississauga in Port Credit. It is always crowded with line ups, but you can pre-order on the phone and pick up. Again, make a visit asap.
