Reviews Summary
Cali Burritos LLC is celebrated for its incredibly delicious and generously portioned California-style burritos, often hailed as the best in town. The unique setting within a gas station adds to its charm, and many praise the friendly service and vibrant salsa bar. However, some diners note potential long wait times during busy periods, and a few have experienced inconsistencies in food quality or service.
"As a California girl myself, I am excited to give Cali Burrito 5 STARS and 2 THUMBS UP! Delicious.
The service was very friendly, helpful & accommodating as I love to “create my own” veggie style burrito. The flavor of the rice & beans reminded me of my absolute favorite Mexican restaurant from my hometown of Santa Maria, CA. They also have a salsa bar & while all of the flavors are on point, the jalapeño green is the best for me!
We were simply visiting but I came back twice to enjoy the same burrito bc it was just that good. I only gave 4 stars for atmosphere bc after all, this is inside of a gas station but all things considered it’s still comfortable as it has its own separate space and sitting areas both inside & out.
Way to bring Cali flavors to North Dakota! I would have never guessed… :)"

"I give alot of hate to cali because I'm from Texas. That being said this place can take my money any day. I got the Macho Burrito and wow just wow. The Carne asada was cooked perfectly and this 🌯 was loaded with flavor. This place is located inside of a convenience store so it's a bit small and my order took about 30 mins."

"Great for lunch, but come with an appetite because I couldn't believe how big the burritos were. I got a California burrito and it was tasty, but I couldn't finish it. They were busy at lunch time, but most people seemed to take their food to go on their breaks. Because they were busy, it did take about 15- 20 minutes to get our food, but it was hot and fresh. Wouldn't recommend if you're short on time. They also had a little bar of garnishes and salsa flavors to choose from by the beverages. They have their own space within the convenience store that is walled off. Several tables and chairs, even though they were busier, there were still places to sit. Music playing and relatively loud, but a good place to grab a solo lunch."

A Chef’s Take on the Best Restaurants in Bismarck, North Dakota
True food lovers know better than to judge an eatery by its exterior, even when the exterior is that of an Exxon gas station. When it comes to Bismarck, North Dakota, restaurant Cali Burritos, don’t be deterred by the unusual location; you won’t be held hostage by roller-grill hot dogs or stale coffee. “It’s definitely a ‘food comes first’ situation,” says Howard of the counter-service joint.

It's almost impossible to find that out here in ND - about a month ago, I tried Cali Burritos at 2901 Memorial Highway - they have THE BEST guacamole I have ever had. Do yourself a favor and order the chicken Taquitos - crisp and absolutely delicious. You will thank me later!
