Matteo GiuzziJanuary 17, 2015I used to go here every Friday for "Burrito Friday" with my office. I've tried many different burrito places in London, and this is definitely the best. You won't regret.
MonaNovember 19, 2014Pretty good burritos. One of the best I've had so far in London. They're not stingy with meat. Had a grilled chicken and shredded beef burrito. Yum :) worth trying once, maybe twice :)
GeorgeAugust 1, 2014Great burritos and worth the wait in the queue. Not sure best in London. El Burrito on Charlotte St takes that medal in my humble opinion.
Amazing burritos. You really can't go wrong with the options, but the Steak Burrito is hard to beat. Well worth lining up for.
Simon SchräderMarch 18, 2016One of the best burritos in town, so quite long queues. Worth the wait. Extra hot sauce is in fact extra hot!
Yoonie SApril 16, 2013Once my fav burrito place in all of London, the food isn't as flavoursome as it use to be! On the plus side you can now get smaller burritos which are £1 less than a standard DD!
A burrito phenomenon that gets the londonburrito.com award for best burrito in town. If you're hungry, go for the double-meat option. This place is good good good!
David RobertsMay 16, 2011Quality can sometimes fluctuate from being the best Burrito in London to mediocre, rest assured though, when it's good (which is generally the case) it's really damned good! Don't go without trying th Read more- Russ GarrettAugust 29, 2013Arguably some of the best burritos in London. Sizeable burritos, good meat selection. The extra-hot sauce is great.
Joan Vidal BoschJanuary 7, 2017One of the best burrito places. Go for the lunch deal with the chips... are really good- Ali MAugust 9, 2018Simple and delicious, try their quesidillas in their food truck across the road too!
Peter DurbenSeptember 8, 2015So so good. Great value on the combo! £8 for burrito, chips, salsa and Coke. Amazing guacamole.- Tried the carnitas for the first time today and that was amazing. It's a shame they don't do Tomatillo anymore though!
Peter BarkatOctober 17, 2013The henchest burrito I've found in London so far! One small qualm is that the size means it falls apart more easily 3.5*
Sam BraceMarch 29, 2010Best Burritos in town, perfect for hangover cures or even if your just plain hungry. They are enormous and very tasty indeed. My fave is chicken with peppers, extra guacamole and chilli. Love em.
Sam MAugust 13, 2014Amazingly fresh, great flavours, easily one of the best burritos in London. Understandably popular.
Rajesh PatkiApril 8, 2015Heard a lot about the burritos. Failed to meet the raised expectations... but good food nonetheless!
Bec VaughanJune 14, 2016It's ok, I suspect much better if you eat meat. However for vegetarians, there are better burrito places that actually have a veggie filling - as opposed to here, where they just leave out the meat.
Jonathan RiversJuly 31, 2013Lovely burritos, and now they have moved to their own space, even seating!
Janelle WrightJuly 25, 2013***First time here, had the Daddy Donkey with chicken absolutely loved it! Highly recommended! ***- Quite simply the greatest discovery I have made since starting to work in Holborn. Absolutely beautiful burritos, Tomatillo beef is my favourite
The burritos are superb; be warned, however, that the extra-hot habanero salsa packs quite a kick.
Simon BruceNovember 20, 2014Don't lineup - order online and pickup at the window for super quick service.
Tony MamacosMarch 23, 2011Carnita fujita burrito with hot salsa and guacamole, magic! Price is alright, food is amazing
Javier HernandezApril 27, 2011Try the chicken fajita - delicious. Add some guacamole to make it ultra yummy!
Kwai ChiOctober 8, 2014Not sure why people love this place so much. I think their wraps are so so and well overpriced!

Robert ShawJuly 10, 2013Daddy Donkey isn't a van any more - he's a shop! Get there early - by 12.30pm the queues will be long!
Gavin DandridgeFebruary 14, 2011Great Mexican food. I lunch here at least once a week. Awesome burrito's with all the trimmings.
Dan CunninghamMarch 30, 2016No match on Benito's Hat. Too much rice and burrito lacked structural integrity. Since when do jalapeños cost extra?
Marcus ZollerSeptember 14, 2010Naked Burrito, Tomatillo Beef, extra hot salsa, all salad and extra guac...that is all...
The most awesome burritos - try a chicken burrito with everything on and extra hot - delicious
Paolo BaroneAugust 29, 2013Really not sure what the fuss is all about! My pork burrito was really bland and definitely not worth queueing for! There are much better places around
Charlotte FeredayFebruary 26, 2010Go for the Carnitas Daddy D with hot sauce and Guacamole for a tongue tingling (but not tear inducing) oversized lunch
tacos. 3 different meats - tomatillo, canitas and steak. add guacomole. UNREAL.
Peter McKenzie-JonesFebruary 9, 2010Get a chicken or steak fajitas and go for the extra hot if you want to really feel the burn!

"Perfect for lunch. Try the lamb burrito. They've got black beans and pinto beans. The "naked" is almost like a Brazilian traditional lunch."
Fernanda Odilla - 7.2
"My favourite burrito stall in the area. A decent choice for a decent price. Worth the queue at lunchtimes, but consider buying drinks from the nearby shops to save money."
