Nom nom burritos nom

Love burritos. I was very sad when they got rid of the Impossible meat as an option, but they replaced it with a plant-based chicken which is very tasty. And they don't charge extra for it like the impossible.

Vegan options: lots of vegetables and sauces, tofu, beans, rice, and plant-based chicken. Makes for very tasty burritos, and there is also a student discount.

Cons: I still miss the impossible meat

Make your own with plenty of vegan choices

Plenty of options, it’s like a chipotle but there is more variety in what type of rice bowl you have. The buffalo tofu is great as is the mango salsa. Also they have smoothies if you want something lighter

Pros: Affordable, Fast, Big portions

easy and friendly

Staff here was super helpful. They have lots and lots of different ingredients to make up a burrito or bowl and it was filling and fast with good flavor. We are here several times during a business trip.

One of my favorites

Boloco has a lot of options for vegetarians, considering every burrito on the menu can be made with tofu. You can also make up your own from any of their ingredients. The burritos are always great and the smoothies are pretty good too. The guy (manager?) at the one we usually go to is very friendly. One time her even gave us free cookies because he recognized us as regulars. They also have Boloco cards which you can swipe when you pay and get points towards free food.

Pros: friendly staff, great food

eh, not bad

Orders are taken using a touch screen and with no human interaction, so that was pretty cool (fyi the computer menu is very easy to follow). They must trust people will take the correct size fountain drink because that part is self serve. You grab your food when they call your number and it's a casual enough atmosphere to feel comfortable sitting alone with a book. I had a classic mexican tofu, bean, rice, tomato burrito. It was good, but a little bland lacking spices.

Pros: casual, touch screen ordering, cheap

Cons: bland

Tasty and Friendly

The food is nothing fancy, but it is well prepared and tastes good. The staff were very aware of food contamination issues, which was refreshing. Since everything is assembled in front of you, you can observe the whole process.

As soon as the cashier heard "nut allergy" he made a special notation on the ticket AND spoke to the fellow preparing our meal. The guy wiped down the counter, removed his gloves, washed his hands, and put on a fresh pair of gloves before touching the food. Granted, the space was not decontaminated, but you're not going to get better than that in a restaurant.

Pros: cheap, tasty, comfy chairs

Tasty and convenient

I ate here twice when visiting Boston in August 2009. There are many convenient locations and the servers were very helpful - totally understanding vegan needs. You can order tofu instead of meat in all the wraps and you can see them making your wrap so that you can make sure you don't get something you don't want. My kids loved it too.

Pros: Convenient locations, friendly staff, fast

Cons: serves meat
