Query whether naming your restaurant "Illegal Burrito" would be a binding admission in a court of law that you must be violating some federal statute...

They're Americanized BURRITOS, for chrissake. How different do you expect them to be?

Should Oscar Meyer sue Hormel, too?

Illegal Burrito is what they used to call illegal immigrants back in the day.

You Mother fricker. This is the first time you and I have ever agreed upon anything.

MB = amazing



Being from BR recently moving to Tejas, here's my take:

I love both. I understand Freebirds came along first. And FreeBirds is really good, no doubt. But Izzo's is just as tasty and filling. Win win.

But again LL is right, MB is the best.

Izzo's didnt copy anyone. Its a concept people.

Burger King thought they could do better than Ray Croc.....Dave thought he could do it better than them both.

Stupidity is amazing.

Burritos (as you eat them) are not Americanized but American, invented in San Francisco.

(I'm assuming here that San Francisco is actually located in America, which I'm not 100% convinced of )

I have two complaints with Izzo's.

First, a teaspoon of avacado does not cost $1.25.

And second, the picture of the grilled shrimp in the restaurant where you place your order appears to be of the 16/20 count. I certainly didn't get that the other day as I all had were popcorn shrimp and not that many too boot.

There's 2 I believe. The one I've been to looks like a rundown icehouse and It's right at I-10 and Washington right next to a Denny's. It's the best burger I've had in Houston, but I've been unpleasantly surprised with the quality of burgers here. Huge, thick burger that is ground fresh, but it takes them a while to cook your order. Decent beer selection too.
