Benji's Burrito Bistro in Kaiserslautern

Clean, tasty and very good value for money. The service was very friendly and guided me through the entire selection. I had the burrito with steak. A dream in 2 hands. I will eat here more often. 😃

Large portions, kiddy corner with toys.

Is good can improve more in flavor !!

Best burrito place EVER. The food is always amazing and fresh. The workers are always super nice and fun. This is the only place that never disappointed yet. If you like food full of flavors run there! The only problem is the parking always so full..

A Mexican-style restaurant in Germany that's... actually good?!? As it turns out, it's actually possible! Benji's reminds me a lot of Chipotle from the US. Like the big chain restaurant, it's not really traditional Mexican but instead it's Cali style burritos and bowls. There are some items you wouldn't find at the big chain in the US, and that's a good thing. The Fire salsa (sauce) is hot enough to scratch any spicy itch. Though I didn't try it in it's own, the guac seemed to be right on point. I tried the carnitas burrito with a PSL horchata, both were excellent and I highly recommend stopping in.

The food is delicious, but also expensive. I found the service to be improved compared to the price.

Excellent food... we drive an hour just to eat there.

Always super delicious food! ❤ Very friendly staff & nice atmosphere 👍🏻 10/10 ✨

I moved so now it's a 2 hour drive there but I've been dreaming of this place 😫

Fresh, delicious food, have been here several times and have never been disappointed. The price is also ok and the portions are big enough. There was a special “Pumpkin Horchata” that was really delicious! So we will have to come by again soon 😊

Just fantastic, I always get the burritos, and they are always supremely tasty. Portion size is great, and quality is on point every time I come here. I have no idea how they manage to get all that food wrapped up, but their technique is impeccable. If only they had a location closer to Stuttgart, although probably a good thing they don't as I wouldn't be able to resist coming by.

Delicious and huge portion. Definitely enough for 2 meals. Who needs Chipotle when you can have Benji's?

Very generous size and super tasty burritos. The sauces were delicious. 5 stars

Great bistro with food to take away but also to linger. You can choose the burritos yourself from different ingredients and sauces and have them put together. Overall, the burritos are big and tasty!

Burrito to die for, concept is a bit like subway. My go to burrito is with carnitas :)

It's chipotle away from home. Generous with portions, definitely a must for anyone who misses the motherland.

Great food for a decent price. It‘s just the music is sometimes a little bit too loud which makes it harder to order.

Always worth a visit when we are in the area 👍

This was excellent. I hesitate writing about it, because I want it all for myself! Seriously, if you like good Tex-Mex food, this place offers only a few base orders, with lots of filling/topping options (most, if not all, made in house). And they dont skimp on portion size. I ordered a burrito, and it was legitimately enough food for an entire day. Staff was super friendly. The vibe of the restaurant was equally cool. Do yourself a favor and make a trip there.

Food is good, but a bit pricey. Parking lot is so hard to get in and out

The Infamous Benji Burrito Wow!🌯 Now, I’ve eaten here a few times before and wasn’t too impressed. But today? They absolutely wowed me! As I continue my tour of the best Mexican restaurants in the Ktown area, Benji Burrito definitely earned its place. 🌟 Everything was on point – I’ll definitely be back for more. A pinch of yum! 😋🌶️ #MexicanFood #KtownEats #BenjiBurrito #FoodTour #PinchOfYum

Cowboy quesadilla, queso mixed with ground beef, the guacamole, the fire salsa were all phenomenal. This place is the best Mexican food I have had to enjoy in Germany. A feeling of home for me. Highly recommend, look forward to our next visit. I’ll be trying a margarita or horchata on my next visit!

If you are having separation anxiety from Chipotle then you will find sanctuary here. It is the same Subway assembly line model that you would expect. The portion size of the burritos are huge. If the flavor matched the size it would be very indulgent. However, there is a lot to be missed by way of flavor. The meat options all resemble the culinary expertise of a military DFAC. it is overcooked and under seasoned, or no seasoning. The sauces are vinegar based and pungent. The sauces are mass produced versions of bottled hot sauces you can buy at the store. They don’t taste fresh. The hottest option is manageable, but the flavor is equivalent to a bottle of those prank sauces that are intended to only be hot with no flavor. Don’t ask for hot. It’s not worth it and it will ruin any attempts at flavor on your meal. The staff is pretty rigid. Your money is obviously welcomed, but your actual presence there is questionable lol. Perhaps a drive-thru would be better suited so you don’t feel like you are putting the staff at an imposition. That would alleviate the awkwardness of not really feeling welcomed.

The food is super delicious. There is a lot to choose from. So many different ways to put together your meal.

Very cool American burrito dinner Fresh and delicious food

Massive but cheap, exactly like Chipotle or Moe's but better

This place gets a solid five stars for German location of Mexican food. I know there’s a lot better Mexican food out there in the world but this isn’t Mexico or Texas.

Man! The food was delicious with a great staff! The margaritas are what sold me, though! Whoever mixed it up had a great hand! Fresh veggies with well seasoned meat! Jalapeños were the only thing I didn't really care for because they were cut way too big!

The food is very good. I love the grape salsa.

The food here is banging. Everything is prepared in house. There's so much flavor. This certainly beats any of the stereotypical Mexican restaurants.

Always very tasty, but unfortunately there is still a lot of plastic even though you decide to eat on site.

I bought a Burrito Bowl with steak to go. I loved all the options to put on top. That's always my favorite part about a burrito/taco/bowl. The options to make it unique. When I did not fill the bowl, the lovely lady offered to put more rice or something else. I declined the offer, but I like that she considered my value as a customer.

Gigantic, delicious burritos that rival anything you'll get in the States.

I mean the food is very delicious but why would I pay 1 euro more for sitting and you ask me for tip while there is no service, and food being served in cheap plastic bowls? And you have to clean it yourself afterwards and order yourself . Not to recommend honestly

First time trying their burrito and it was on point. I ordered two chicken burritos with rice, black beans, salad and cheese, absolutely delicious. Since we was first in line we was in and out within minutes.Very friendly staff.

Very cool and delicious food, every time you have holiday memories refreshed I now go there regularly, even if it's a bit of a drive every time, but it's worth it Keep it up ✌️

We love the store. The food is super delicious and always very fresh. Anyone who likes Mexican cuisine is in good hands here. Until next time 😊

I can only recommend Benij's burrito!😍 We've eaten there several times or taken it away and every time it's been so tasty, fresh and you're really full afterwards. Since you can choose which ingredients you want, there is something for everyone. The burritos are one of the best we've eaten and the loaded queso is really tasty too. The employees are also very nice and accommodating. The parking lot is a bit small, but you can park on the street and walk there. We like coming there.

Delicious lunch spot! Basically Chipotle but better! Fresh ingredients and quick service. Definitely will be back!

Very tasty and variable food. The service was super fast and we were able to eat our burritos without waiting too long. The burritos are very hearty and definitely fill you up!

Good, quick cuisine. Clean, nice staff.

Very nicely designed restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. Food was very good both in terms of quality and quantity. Parking situation could be improved as there is sometimes a lot of traffic. We will be back definitely!

Great mexican style food and wonderful service.

Amazing food and good service 😋

Really solid food! I’ve been here many times and keep coming back. Asking for tips is pretty cringey though and I’d respect them a lot more if they stopped that though.

They deserve a five but I know people only look T one stars so they are way bigger portions then chipotle there food is great the purple sauce is great highly recommend going there

For that price I would have expected more. Too Expensive compared to the food you get.

The food was good, the meat had good flavor and the service decent, but maybe ease off the extra charges for toppings. Additional 2 Euros for a bit of guacamole...I saw no gold flakes in it.

Foods is good but some employees are rude and they are somehow given very stingy amount. I had experience many times employees shaked the food potions off the spoon after they scooped. Maybe that is the only reason I go there once in a blue moon.

Portions are worth the price and the atmosphere is welcoming and clean.

This was a great experience. The food was hot and proportion sizes were fanominal. I saw them wrap a burrito that had to be 1.5lbs. Prices are great and the customer service was outstanding. You get 5 stars for a small taste of home.

Recently introduced to Benji’s burrito bistro’s bowls and all I have to say is DELICIOUS!! Good portion for good price. Build your own bowl, burrito or quesadilla. The ingredients are fresh and everything tasted so good and savory. Also tried the quesadilla and didn’t disappoint. I’ll keep coming here when I want some yummy Mexican to go😁

Best burritos and burrito bowls around. Queso and guacamole are great.

I get their bowls, and if you even halfway liked Chipotle in the states, this is a much better, fresher, and tastier version. I hesitate to compare the two, but Benjis offers a very similar service with offering bowls or burritos and then you get to build your own meal like you would at Chipotle/Subway. I’m only in the area roughly only one weekend a month or so, and I typically try to stop by Benjis for one of my meals. Their dessert is great too!

Delicious food, price is a bit more expensive but justified in my opinion.

This chipotle rip off is not worth the time or money. Save yourself the hassle, dont go. To be fair this is the only create your own burrito shop around. However, the efficiency is non existent. Both visits I've made, I was standing in line in a cramped room waiting for a chance to order... only to be told they're out of the meat I want and finally be told they dont have one of their staples... Horchata. Wife got chicken, that was described to me as "its alright, kinda dry". my steak was dry and tough. The only redeeming quality was the huge portions.. Efficiency is non existent in this place.. the music was overwhelmingly loud. guy at the register harrassed my wife about "being more happy"...which instantly made my wife feel uncomfortable. Never again.

Always excellent. You won't find burritos like this anywhere else. However, one of the younger women at the counter was very snotty, the rest were super friendly and relaxed as usual. The horchata is world class too!

outstanding food, we visit on a regular basis, we never got dissapontied! friendly staff and nice people! 🫶✨️

Delicious. I was missing tex mex…Benji’s is tasty. The variety of sauces, great spices and perfectly cooked rice made my burrito bowl so good. I’m not a super fan of the chips, but 5 stars for the burrito bowl. Update: chips have improved.

Arrive just after opening time for a fresh experience. The staff are friendly and the cilantro lime rice is amazing. Get a steak bowl and enjoy.

Food was great as always, can‘t complain. You pay about 10-13€ for a burrito (depends on the sides/meat/..) and get a great portion size. Food is 10/10

Excellent “Chipotle style” restaurant. They also often have specialty drinks such as Jarritos, Brazilian Limeade, Horchata, Margaritas, etc. The prices are a little steep but the quality is good enough to keep us coming back time and time again.

Some of the best burritos I've eaten in a long time. Large portion and really spicy if you order spicy. Large selection of fresh toppings. It's also easy to sit down there and everything is clean and tidy - the toilets are great. Unfortunately, parking options are somewhat limited. The prices are reasonable.

Totally reminds me of Chipotle and home. Really yummy

This place was a refreshing. It’s almost like Moe’s. The aesthetics were nice!

Very tasty, can only be recommended.

They are so rude to their American employees, never coming back

Awesome tacos and a great spot to go! Highly recommend!

Love this place! Will come back!

The Margarita on the rocks is a bit bitter and it doesn't seem to have any tequila in it at all. The food is so good and plentiful. I was only here visiting from Chicago.

We ate there for the first time these days. You first choose whether you want a buritto or a bowl and then you can put together the filling according to your own taste. There are also 4 different pre-packaged burittos, one of which I had eaten was the cowboy burrito. Order can be placed in English or German. The waitresses were very nice and gave us great support when we ordered there for the first time. The food was super tasty and the portion was very large. It tasted like I wanted an org. Imagine a burrito. It wasn't too spicy either, but you can influence that by choosing the ingredients. Small disclaimer, Benji's Buritto is more like a snack bar than a restaurant. There aren't very many seats either. But I would definitely recommend it for lovers of American-Mexican cuisine. I'm already looking forward to the next time.

Great burrito spot. Food and steak are both amazing. Parking is super limited and indoor seating is small. If you go during peak lunch times just be prepared for a line. It is worth the wait!

Best burrito I have had in a long time

The food was really very good and a lot. But there's so much going on in the store that you feel rushed. Parking spaces are a disaster. Otherwise you feel like you are in another country 😜

Best Buritto in Town! Put together according to your choice!

Excellent food, very large portion size burritos so you really get your money worth. Highly recommend

Biggest burritos ever with no skimping. Worth every penny.

Trip to see the city and needed to try Benjis. The food was delicious and large portions I couldn't finish the plate. I recommend the chips and carnitas. Very friendly staff and good atmosphere. I hope to come back soon

This place is pretty good. The parking is pretty small but the food is good. They’ve got a couple beer selections they take cash and card and speak in English and the portions are big.

Overprice meals, portions ok but I went there at 1230 lunch time, rice and beans were dry and overcooked and they looked like left over from the previous day. The fake Mexican vibe don't set ok with me since. Yo soy mexicano. No one from the crew is even from mexico. A couple guys from sudamerica, the taste of the food was bland and I don't know where they got their recepies from but definitely not from mexico.

Best burritos in town. Lots of options and variety.

It was always good but the last time i visited i bought a quesadilla but when i arrived at home i found multiple hair in my food

Line was kind of long. But the food was amazing.

Take Chipotle and kick it up many notches, and you have Benji's. Best burrito this side of the Atlantic. Service was great too. I just wish it was closer to me in England. :(

Really good food, but a bit too expensive.

Food is fresh and tastes very good 👍

There was a long line and for a reason.

Benji's is great, and has great food. It tastes great, fills you up and you can even eat it cold with no problems. I'm really looking forward to going back again. The only negative thing i have to say is the location, and/ or the parking situation. The front parking lot is not that great to try and squeeze into and the number of spaces is very limited, even with the spaces in the back. It would be great if they could open a location in the Ramstein food court, i think it would go extremely well if they did.

My family came here for dinner and we got two bowls and a burrito. For three adults and a child, we still had leftovers for another meal the next day. There’s some good flavor profiles, the food was great. Those pickled onions - idk where you got them or who made them but they’re perfection. The guac was also quite good. Will definitely eat here again.

Without a doubt the best burrito I've ever had outside of the US.

Love it all around. Best burritos in Germany.

The server didn’t get my order right after I repeated what I wanted. Ended up giving me a kids burrito. I went to go wait in line to order a quesadilla. Instead of helping the customers The servers started to clean ínstead making our food . There were only 3 people waiting and I waited 10 mins. Please work on your customer service skills and not just have us waiting.

Great place if your looking for the Chipotle style. Recommend avoiding the lunch hour our you will be in a line forever, yes that many people. Parking is a bit difficult also, but worth the trip.

Benji never fails. Great food, great spot, and friendly staff.

Normally, I avoid places like this because in the States, they are bland and overpriced. Here, the meat had flavor, the rice had flavor, and the avocado looked fresh and tasted great. That being said being from Texas I knew the fire sauce would not be fire. It was like a medium. I even added jalapeños and it still wasn't as spicy as I expected. It was a lot of food. A coworker got the quesadilla and it looked good also. Next time.

Very much like a Chipotle from the United States! Great service, huge portions, and very flavorful. Don't forget to get a margarita as well!

I used to enjoy coming to Benji‘s over The last few years, but I just came back for the first time in about a year and they definitely raised the prices. For 2 people getting just a burrito, quesadilla, and a drink it was about €35 when we used to pay around 20-25 when we first started coming. I mean come on, you’re talking about basically chipotle type food for €35! Absolutely not. And the staff was running out of food and was rude to my wife when she asked how long it would take for that food to come back out. The service is trash and then if you pay with a card they have the nerve to ask for a tip when all they do is make the food and give it to you. There NO EXTRA service provided to justify them wanting a tip. They are clearly used to Americans coming here and are ripping us off now. Just STOP IT.

The absolute best burrito I've ever had! Recommended by ❤️

Always generous with portion sizes and always hot.

I like the burritos and all the fillings. Service is very quick.
