Went through drive through, only had to wait about 5 mins after we ordered but let me tell you it was worth every min waiting. We had the steak burrito minus the salsa and it was fantastic!! The burrito was massive, nice and hot, great flavor, and tender steak! We will define back every time we want a burrito!

I got the meal deal with the chicken burrito which came with a drink chips and salsa for less than $15. For this to be my first time here the food was very fresh and fulfilling . For everything that came with the meal it was definitely worth the price. The drink was Large and so was the salsa and chips the staff provided . I also got a 10-piece nugget and small fry for less than $5. My son overall liked it and got full . Thank you I’ll be back again to try the nachos

Chicken Burrito for me ($12.00). Steak Burrito for friend ($12.00). Both excellent. Burrito wrapper excellent, grilled, did not fall apart. Ingredients top notch & tasty. Drive-thru. Friendly. Waited 5 min at window for fresh cooked because I didn't pre-order. --- OMG, the sauteed shrimp burrito was even better, if that's even possible! (I adjusted lighting & tone on these photos)

Got the steak burrito, chips and queso along with Mexican tacos. The burrito is massive and at least 2 meals in itself. Everything is so flavorful. The queso is tasty and the chips are crispy and delicious. The tacos were el pastor with hot sauce and oh boy it was spicy and amazing. So far everything has been beyond expectations. Will definitely come back for dinner again.

I'm super excited about a new Mexican restaurant opening up in the Akron area. I ordered ahead on the phone, process was easy order was ready in 8 minutes. Let me tell you something these tacos were TASTY and TENDER. Rather than the normal finally chopped steak the pieces in this Taco were rather thick and juicy. The salsas were chunky and delicious as well. Please give this place a shot. I will be back to try the rest of their menu.

I'll tell you, I have told everybody whom I felt would take advantage of golden burrito. I've only had it one time but I have to say it was absolutely fantastic. I felt terrible as I ordered at an off time and on the weekend, but the gentleman who took care of me didn't seem to mind whatsoever. It was a little different of a situation for ordering as I walked up to the entrance and thought the location was closed I pulled down the door but it was not that type of service at least for that day. Upon getting back in my car the gentleman Made it a point to come out and tell me to come on through the drive-through which I did, I ordered a steak burrito, Couple of tacos some rice and a couple of other side items and again it was fantastic. The food was hot, plentiful and very tasty. They definitely use quality ingredients. I would love to visit them more often but my eating habits Will not allow it; thus the reason I've told others about it. If you have an opportunity and you enjoy that type of cuisine, do yourself a favor and stop into golden burrito on S. Main St. in Akron, you will not be disappointed I promise you.

Food was delicious! Ordered and received my order in a timely manner. Tried the California burrito and it was delicious. The Chorizo was legit and flavorful. Burrito was packed full of meat. Will definitely keep this place in mind when I'm craving a burrito.
