I'm unsure as to how the "Healthy" part of the restaurant's name came to be. Based on the burritos I've eaten here, I think it's possible to get your week's caloric intake in one serving. If you really want burritos as big as your head, then forget Chipotle. Gordito's burritos are huge.
Beyond size, the burritos at Gordito's are good. From the moment you step in the door, you can see that the meats are being grilled right before you. The sauce and cheese ratio on the wet burritos is near perfect, not so much of either that you notice it. I don't think I can agree with reviews of Gordito's being the BEST Mexican restaurant, but I can say it is tasty and it hits the spot when I feel like I'm on the brink of starvation.
Although there is a lot of seating, I don't particularly love dining in. It is rare for me to find a table that isn't sticky. If you do stay, at least Gorito's is prepared. Stacks of styrofoam to-go containers sit at the ready.
On my last visit, there was a picture of a baby next to a Gordito's burrito. I think the burrito was bigger.
