At this little taqueria you will find some of the biggest burritos in the world. This is not an exaggeration. You can gorge yourself on a tasty burrito the size of a small loaf of bread at Iguana's. The eatery caters to students and downtown scenesters looking for a bite as the clubs are closing. Also a must are the nachos, which are likewise served in huge portions.

I came to this place to buy a Super Burrito. I saw the guy who prepares my burrito with no gloves, just bare hands picking meats, vegetables, dips his hands into the pan to grap meats, no spoons etc... He sometimes uses his pants to clean his hands, then picks food again. THAT'S SO GROSSED. I was so hungry and thought will get a good lunch here but as many of fact, this guy totally lost my appetite, I mean completely. I don't understand why people gave them all 5 stars positive reviews. May be all those people are their own relatives. They gave themselves positive reviews to promote their own restaurant. This restaurant is so disgusting, no clealiness at all. I thought CLEANLINESS is number 1 important for all restaurants, but I cannot find it here, not at all... I would never come back here again, nor recommend it to any one here. Very disappoint it.... Grade D.
Went here after hearing about the Burritozilla. Had a super burrito with chipotle chicken and carne asada nacho fries. The burrito was good although the chicken was not as spicy as I would have liked, but the orange hot sauce was excellent and balanced it out. The fries (mostly eaten the next day as leftovers) were incredible before and after I doused them in the orange sauce.
About a week ago I decided that I could eat anything, and would. So me and my boy decided to take on the BURRITOZILLA as a challenge. After a touch of reasearch about this Balco Burrito, what began as a hardore bet of testosterone and money, quickly became nothing more than a gentlemens bet to see who could actually finish. Pictures do this monstrocity no justice, it measured from my elbow to my extended finger tip, 18 inches; it sat on the table taunting me, round as a human calf, it taunted me. As the clock started we began to eat, and 20 minuets later, all I could think about was how much I had eaten, and yet, how much was still left. Two-thirds of the burrito were consumed, and with it, my ability to walk. We called it a tie, and parted with the remaining Burritozilla. This burrito is more than one can expect, the size is enormus, the taste is amazing, the aftermath, devestating.
