Who this is for

Who orders this

Burritos are for eaters who want a filling meal that travels well. Burrito bowls are for the same plate without the tortilla, built through the four-step sign at the counter.

The board lists a supreme burrito and the dinner board lists a small GOL burrito with your choice of meat, so the burrito side of the menu covers both quick and full-size orders.

Burrito bowls are the most customizable order in the building: four steps, and each step has at least two choices, which makes it easy to build a different bowl every visit.

On the board

  • GOL burrito, listed on the dinner board as small or full

As shown on the board

What the menu says

The make-your-own burrito bowl sign at the counter reads: step one, choice of meat or poultry; step two, choose beans, pinto or black; step three, choose rice, yellow or white; step four, choose toppings, guacamole, queso fresco, sour cream, pico de gallo. One capture of the sign lists braised carnitas, barbacoa, adobo chicken, and grilled steak as the meat options.

The GOL burrito is the house name on the board. If you want the same filling without the tortilla, the bowl line gives you the same steps over rice.

How to order

At the counter

Know your meat, bean, rice, and topping preferences before you reach the register. The counter will walk you through the four steps either way.

Say whether you want a burrito or a bowl first, then work the steps. Small and large portions set the size, so say which you need up front.

Outcomes and next steps

The counter confirms your meat, beans, rice, and toppings before the order starts.
