The Best God Damned Burrito Out There.....ROBS!!!!!!!

 Back when I was going to York College of Pennsylvania, we discovered a small burrito place a few minutes away from West Campus called Roburrito's (or simply Rob's). I recently visited York this past weekend for Halloween celebrations and had Rob's for lunch on Sunday.

Located on West Market St., Rob's seemed like a cool spot to check out. We found that its a must if your a local student, resident, or just passing through York, PA. The place holds around fifteen guests, and parking is a little iffy. They offer free delivery and on many occasions we picked up our food to take back to the dorms. There is another location nearby in Dallastown, PA that I have never been to. From what I've heard, its a lot larger and there's better parking. However, I wouldn't know personally.

The menu is pretty straightforward and simple, consisting of burritos and quesadillas. There are several different variations of each item. My suggestion would be to try a Roburrito. The Robburrito (made out of fresh homemade tortillas) comes with one meat (either chicken, steak, or shrimp), cheese, rice, black beans, salsa, sour cream, and homemade guacamole. Their guacamole alone is fucking amazing. All the ingredients are very fresh tasting, and it seems like fresh produce is delivered pretty regularly as they have boxes of it stacked around the restaurant. I have had one of their quesadillas before, and while it was delicious, it wasn't as filling as a Roburrito (the burrito is pretty large!).

The menu is fairly priced, with a burrito costing about 6 bucks. For an extra $1.25 you can make it a combo, where you get a can of soda and warm tortilla chips served with homemade salsa. This past weekend Rob's had a special on the menu called the 'Brain' burrito. When we asked what was inside, the guy at the register simply said... "fried cow brains." I wasn't feeling that adventurous at that particular moment... haha.



Rob's carries a brand of hot sauce called 'Old Grumpy Mark's.' It comes in several different varieties, such as Peach Warrior and Pearl Harbor. They all have different flavors and heat ratings. Bottles of all sizes are available for purchase (which I have done many a time.) If your getting your food delivered or picking it up, you can even ask them to "infuse" one of the sauces into your food.

Besides the food being out of this world, the decor of the place is quite interesting (to say the least.) The employees have a pretty twisted but hysterical sense of humor which can be seen in  the signs and flyers posted around the place. One of the funnier things was a small children's book about the dangers of marijuana. Local "artists" and employees added their own little drawings and remarks (they know whats up, hahaha.) You can even sign a dollar bill and ask them to post it behind the register, leaving your mark on this local hotspot.




Even if it had children in it, I would still eat a Roburrito any day.....

The Bellerose crew's dollar is still up on the wall from last year's Halloween!!

 THE LOVERDICT:

Well priced, and utterly delicious, Roburrito's has the best burrito I have ever experienced to date. If you go to York College of PA or live in York, PA and have not been here before, you fail at life.  So stop in, grab a burrito, and check out the decorations and posters. Chipotle ain't got shit on Rob's. Nuff' said....
