If you’re hunting for a unique take on classic Mexican dishes, the friendly folks at Bullritos are going to make your day. This locally-owned chain puts its own special spin on the classic burrito, and regulars go wild over the flavors here.

Ordering is a little different here, so pay attention. When you walk in, each patron grabs a bag and marks the kind of dish they want: burrito, tacos, nachos, or salad. You then check off the kind of meat you want, your choice of vegetables, cheeses, and other condiments. Quick as a flash, the kitchen staff makes your meal from scratch and gets it back to you.

Regulars rave about the carne guisada, perfectly seasoned beef that goes great with spicy salsa. The pulled pork is also very good. This League City restaurant also has a state-of-the-art soda machine that lets you choose from over a hundred flavors and combinations.
