Over priced not worth what I paid

Honestly one of the best burritos I've had. Finally a place that doesn't fry potatoes to death. But the salsa is maybe a 4 out of 10 and the queso is the worst I've had. I was craving chips and queso (the chips are great) and i got some flour and water mixture liquid that seems like someone picked all the broccoli out of a can of broccoli cheddar soup. Service was really fast and everyone was really nice though. I wish the quality matched the overall experience.

Mama josie's was good back in the day, idk if it's the staff or what? Bc, the place along with the food and prices have got to crap. I bought a bean and cheese burrito for under 3$ the other day it was so so. I decided to give them another chance..today I've decided I'm not ever going back. Same order, I paid just under 7$ no salsa, nothing, not even napkins. I ask about the price, she said their prices went up along time ago, so the price on the board is not what you payin? Nope. I believe they just charge what they want. Not only that, my papa n bean burrito was mostly bean. Never coming back. Would not recommend. BTW it's the location on Aberdeen and university.

The lady at the front was really nice but I dont know if they were running out of food or what my burrito was mostly tortilla and the tortilla was extremely chewy.

they are not in fact 24 hours. theh did not even acknowledge us when we were at the window. and when we called them to see if they were serving they didn’t bother to answer the phone

Got shorted 6 breakfast burritos Saturday morning, tried to call kept getting hung up on. Went back today was told rudely there was nothing they could do to rectify. Over priced, Nickel and dimed for extras, spent a lot of money!

They're not worth it any more. Prices are going high but they're quality is going under. Burrito king is the place to go. Smh use to be one of my favorite place to go growing up. Now it's just about the money. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Tasha Saiz

I only gave 1 star because I had to. This morning deserves 0. Carne Quisada burrito is not a hard old ground beef burrito, chips and salsa is not burn chips, egg, ham and cheese burrito went straight in the trash. Ridiculous to spend money at your business to get food that has to go straight to trash! Never again, if you want to waste your money LITERALLY or be sick at work all day VISIT this location! So disappointed Mama Josie would be to. AWESOME family!

James Shipley

Paid more than $20 for 2 "Big Mama" burritos this morning. Got 2 gigantic potato burritos with a tiny bit of eggs, beans and cheese. No bacon. No sour cream. No bueno! If I had ordered potato burritos they would have been awesome.

Where's the meat? We had not been to Josie's on years. This morning we thought we would try the 34th Street Josie's Ave Q Drive-Inn. Bad mistake, over priced, bland egg and potatoes with very little cheese. Needless to say won't be back!

K
Kali Elliott

Waited in line for 35 minutes this morning. They messed up my order and refused to give me change. The girl at the window was nice, but the one playing manager was super rude and condescending when I told her that I had ordered another burrito, telling me I’d only been charged for 3 and then refusing to make the other burrito or give me change. $22 for 3 burritos is ridiculous. Just so you know, Josie’s, it’s illegal to refuse change without having signs posted. What used to be my 3x/week stop will be no more.

Ordered a breakfast burrito eggs were watery and the bacon was all fat and chewy and the tortilla was cold you also have to pay extra for a tiny container of hot sauce for burrito and it was not good either paid 6 bucks for a burrito that was horrible and cold would not recommend

EDITED TO ADDEDD THIS REVIEW IS FOR THE 24 HR AVE Q LOCATION. I used to loved coming here but I've noticed she over charges me (josie maybe, she's a Mexican lady older with white hair always at the window) more than any other employee. I'll get the same item its several dollar less. I noticed it a couple items ans today I know she's doing it after looking at the itemized receipt. Took an $11 plate to 14 because She's adding multiple hot sauce which I never ordered to the ticket to do this. I won't be returning after figuring out her scheme. Cheaper, better food open at that hour.

Brenda Bolin

Ordered an extra bacon, egg, cheese and potato burrito and an orange juice. I received what was essentially a potato burrito with a few crumbles of egg and bacon with no cheese and a coke. Really sub-par and I don’t say this lightly as someone who has worked in the restaurant business and whose family has owned restaurants. Do better.
