I've tried burritos from all of those places, each one has it's pros and cons. But from here on out, I'm only getting my burritos from Taco and Burrito Express, there's really no competition. Was there two days ago, enjoying a chicken burrito.

No competition is right. Based on my trip, Izzo's blows that place away in every category except price and salsa. And I'll gladly pay more at Izzo's for fresh jalepenos, fresh pico de gallo, and chunks of chicken breast instead of shreadded chicken. I will say that the salsa at T&BE was really good. That's about all that I was impressed with.

The salsa at T&BE is made fresh. In fact, everything there is made from scratch, the only thing that comes from a container are the Jalapenos (I pointed this out right off the bat in my review thread). Next time you go to Izzo's, ask the manager on duty where they buy their jalapenos from.

You're the only person on this forum to actually say they were disappointed with Taco and Burrito Express. Looking back at your other post, it seems like you're an incredibly finicky eater in the first place.

I'm not a rice or beans fan, so I didn't get either on my burrito. There was as much lettuce as chicken, and the tomato and sour cream were sparse. I didn't leave hungry, but I could have eaten more. I guess I just prefer chunks of chicken breast as opposed to shredded chicken. The burrito was also rolled to where one side was all chicken and the other side was all lettuce. I can't stand that. It's a pet peeve of mine.

Seems like you would have left full had you gotten a burrito as it comes. Those guys aren't going to throw in a massive amount of chicken and a cup of sour cream just because you 86 the beans and rice.
