The full ranking
Mission-style transplants, Sonoran imports, and the Fort Greene shop hand-rolling lard tortillas to order. Where NYC's burrito scene actually lives.
Plaza Ortega (Bushwick)
A Bushwick favorite for Mexican food generally, with three burrito schools represented: Sonora, California, and birria. The Sonora is the sleeper order.
B'Klyn Burro (Clinton Hill)
Two San Francisco expats brought true Mission-style burritos to Brooklyn, griddling each one for a crusty, sealed tortilla. The closest NYC gets to 24th Street.
Los Burritos Juárez (Fort Greene)
Handcrafted flour tortillas and northern Mexican fillings from a weekend-only Fort Greene operation that sells out fast.
Taqueria Tlaxcalli (Parkchester)
The Bronx standard-bearer, where enormous, carefully built burritos earn trips to Parkchester from every borough.
La Taq (Park Slope)
Park Slope's neighborhood taqueria, turning out tight, balanced burritos that locals rank above the famous names.
Son Del North (Lower East Side)
Baja-born flour tortillas made in-house and stuffed with carne asada, from the team that introduced the city to a real northern Mexican burrito.
Electric Burrito (multiple locations)
A St. Marks counter whose California burritos swap rice for golden fries, closer to a San Diego stand than anything else in the city.
Downtown Burritos (East Village)
A tiny East Village counter known for breakfast and smothered burritos, with refried beans and melty cheese elevating the gas station classic.
Super Burrito (Williamsburg)
A Williamsburg counter modeled on the San Francisco corner shop, down to the foil wrap and the salsa bar. The Mission-style build is the point: rice, beans, and griddled meat rolled tight, best eaten with two hands over the paper.
Dos Toros Taqueria (multiple locations)
Berkeley brothers built the city's most reliable fast-casual burrito, with Niman Ranch meats and a Mission lean. The everyday option done right.
