The Great Burrito Debate: Anna's

Well, well. We have a new reigning champion. While I personally prefer a Chipotle burrito, it is clear through careful analysis that Anna's is the better overall bet. To start, the restaurant has a fantastic atmosphere. It's a great home-style run burrito joint, and the employees there will be wrapping your burrito quicker than you can decide what you want on it. If you show up at Anna's, it's likely the line will be out the door -- but you'll be amazed to see that line disappear in about two minutes. Seriously, we're talking about the best wrapping in the land. Even quicker than Busdriver. Get it? Wrapping, rapping? Har har. But I digress.

How's the actual burrito? Mad tasty. As we were chowing down, the thought came up, "I'm not sure if there's anything that Anna's will lose points for!" The quality of the ingredients is top notch, and everything is a party for the taste-buds. Especially the guacamole. After several jaunts of sub-par guac, I was very happy to taste some real avocado-full-of-flavor guacamole. And here's the final kicker: the price. The burrito is well-sized, quite delectable, and very affordable. Good work, Anna's. I'll be seeing you around.
