Went here today for the first time, tried several things on the menu to give it a fair assessment. Two tacos two burritos and guacamole. Hot food was cold, asked to reheat and was still cold. they had just opened but everything looked like yesterday’s leftovers. Guacamole did not taste good at all. The door was wide open and it was snowing outside Brrr… Will not return.

I’ve been here a few times & have always found it overpriced. Last time I went in, they charged me an Original price for a gluten-free wrap that was smaller than a «Small» wrap. The owner mage the wrap for me & was rude & pushy the whole time. I’ve never had a problem with any of the regular staff.

Stopped in for a late lunch. Not the first time we have been here. The place was empty but we are met with a smile from the girl behind the counter. We ordered 2 shredded beef tacos and a Mexican raider burrito. Both were very tasty. Service was excellent.

We try to eat at this place fairly regularly because we really, really want it to stay open. It is possibly the only inexpensive food in the city that’s not a fast food chain or pizza. I’ll be honest, coming from Southern California, I would not even compare this to real Mexican food, but by Vermont standards, it is muy bueno. Unlike most burrito places in New England, they actually know how to wrap a burrito and won’t mash it into a sad ball of rice and beans. Get the habanero AND mango salsa, and your flavor/spice problems will be solved.

The food was decent. The service? Whole nuther story. The young woman serving customers was snotty, rude, and straight up disrespectful. Memo to her: I don’t care what kind of day you had. I don’t care the day was hot. I was outside, doing far more physical labor than you. Stop acting like the world owes you. They don’t. Your day was almost over. You are the reason I will not go back there, nor will I recommend this place. Your attitude goes a long way, both positive and negative. I found little positive to say about you, and I hope you take this to heart, as do your employers.

I went here today, and got a really yummy burrito! I spoke with the owner, Dean, about having them potentially cater my wedding next year. If I lived in or near Rutland, I’d probably come here a lot. For the reviewers complaining about the price: I got two burritos(one with the added cost of guac) for $ 16. Would you mind telling me on what planet they sell your typical«big”/standard burrito for less than $ 7 – 8 each?

I have tried to like this place several times because I do believe the veggies taste fresh. Unfortunately I have yet to get something that was any good. The burritos are made to order but all of the beans and toppings are just bland tasting. For the price it’s not worth it.

We rolled in at 7:05pm on a Saturday night after driving for 3 hours, hungry for a meal. My two boys and I spilled out of the car and up the steps through the open doors, looking forward to a quick and light dinner. They said they closed at 7. I’m sure they saw the disappointment on our faces, and said they would make us anything we wanted. We appreciated so much them staying open and serving us a healthy, delicious meal. The whole wheat wraps are very wholesome and they have tons of fillings, take your pick. Easy to say that it’s not Subway or Chipotle, because it’s not. It’s a local, real, healthy shop that has great ingredients and friendly service. The prices are very reasonable, in my estimation. I;m grateful they stayed open and look forward to going back for a breakfast burrito — I hear they are excellent!

Dankest burritos in Rutland/Killington hands down. They are NOT only vegan as some of these reviews make it seem, they have beef, chicken, dark chicken, and sometimes steak. When they claim they have many options, they are more than right. You’ll have to check it out for yourself, my experiences have made all of Mexico explode in my mouth. KJ from New York, NY

Decent quick and healthy option. I wouldn’t call it a burrito shop, per se. It’s more of a wrap store with some Mexican ingredients. The tortilla chips are also pretty decent. I ordered the Mexican Raider, but the way the service goes, the burrito-tender moves your wrap down the line asking what you’d like by type: beans, rice, protein, vegetables, etc. For what you get, I would say the prices are a little high.

Maybe Vermont standards are a little different, but this is definitely not a chipotle-like place. Maybe more Mexican-Subway-of-Vermont. Where they only give you four olives on your 12-inch sub. I feel bad writing a negative review because the man working there was very nice, but the portions were small, and the guac looked prepackaged and scary. Also, there was no flavor… it needed MAJOR salt at the very least.

This place was exactly what I wanted after a day of skiing. A delicious burrito with grilled chicken, habanero salsa and plenty of fresh ingredients made fast and expertly really hit the spot. If I lived around here I would eat at this place as much as possible. The salsa was very flavorful and the chicken was tender and juicy. They also have other Mexican meals like tacos and quesadillas that I regret not getting a chance to try.

The wraps, burritos, and smoothies are all good, however it leans more on the pricey side. The food always tastes fresh, and it’s just as speedy as a fast food joint.

This place is pretty good but nothing amazing for the price. There is also a strange issue wherein despite listed hours online they are often inexplicably closed so I’ve learned to not think of them when looking for takeout. Good nutella shakes though! Nobody else makes them in this area so that is a major plus.

Nice little place. My boyfriend and I sat outside which was nice. It was a little pricey but honestly what I had tasted fresh and amazing. I had a build your own bowl with chicken, black beans, white rice, salsa verde, corn salsa, lettuce, carrots, cucumber and homemade salsa as the dressing. Yum. My boyfriend had the carnitas and it left something to be desired. Bland, mooshy, not authentic at all. That was the only complaint though. Would recommend and return just no carnitas!

For Rutland county this place is great. Café Verde has some solid food with a nice atmosphere to complement it. The smoothies and coffee are excellent and the classic mexican raider is killer. I recommend this to anyone looking for FRESH and QUICK food! ITSGREAT! The guy who commented below from Brooklyn below is wrong. This is vermont style, not Brooklyn.

Like Chipotle but better. Much better. Really fresh ingredients and a very friendly staff. Excellent burritos(and bowls) for breakfast and lunch.

I designed my own burrito and it was great. Tasted fresh and came out quick. Service was great and friendly atmosphere. The restaraunt itself was clean and clearly recently rennovated. Overall, great new place in Rutland!

Friendly staff, clean inside, and quick(and good) food. When I visited, they had just opened, so were working out the kinks. The building was recently renovated, and it is great for a sit down burrito. Not a lot of room inside, though. Their menu is full of fresh items, and offers something for everyone it seemed.

Excellent all around! Tasty chips, salsa, burritos. Friendly service! Lots of options for vegans & vegetarians(& carnivores too). Several styles of tortillas, two kinds of rice, two beans, tofu, four varieties of fresh salsa(mango was delicious!), tons of veggies… You can order from the menu or design your own burrito. They serve breakfast, lunch, dinner. Green Mountain Coffee & fresh baked goods too. Order at the counter & sit where you’d like. Very casual, fine for kids.
