Benji's Burrito Bistro in Kaiserslautern

I absolutely love Benjis food. Its like chipotle and qdoba had a love child. Best of everything, flavor, quality and quantity. The only stupid part is they are so good the line is forever long and the parking kinda sucks. Other than that, this is definitely a stop I always make in K-Town

Unfortunately very salty and not authentic...we ordered a burrito to take away. The order was delivered to us lukewarm, almost cold, wrapped in aluminum foil and would therefore not have been suitable for immediate consumption. We then warmed up the burrito at home in the microwave...not my idea of ​​good Mexican. Eat. Never again.

Top top top! The food is amazing and English is even spoken! Best store!

Food was fresh, delicious and worth every cent. The service was great too, however, asking for tips in a burrito place is kinda iffy.

¡Delicioso! BENJIS is by far our favorite plac3 to eat in the KMC area. The food is so flavourful and good and the staff are wonderful. The portions are huge, you will leave stuffed and probably with left overs ! They have a little corner for kids to play while the parents just hangout. Atmosphere is calm and too easy to just relax and enjoy wonderful food here ! Definitely stop by, big plus is they are open daily!!!!! Which means great place to stop by on Sundays.

Unfortunately hair was found in the food!!! After that my review was simply deleted!

We found hair in the food! After that the recession was simply erased!!

Terrific ! Authentic burritos, tacos, etc., made to order, with a wide range of ingredients/options (each one well prepared in itself). The grape salsa was absolutely amazing, I'll be back for that alone!!! Price-performance ratio very good.

Removing a stars, as they ask for a TIPs now at the counter... why exactly do I need to tip for fast food? For prepping my food or charging me at the counter? Original Post: Best burritos east of the MississipRhine river!!

Loved the burritos!! The ingredients are fresh and tasty. The size is more than average. I loved the horchata. Tried it for the first time and can’t wait to go back for more. The service was great too and it didn’t take that long.

Fast and easy to order best Tex-Mex food in the KMC. Workers are friendly and the place is well kept.

If you're American and looking for some Mexi style comfort food, this is the place to go.

Great authentic food. I love eating here. Great price. Wonderful staff members.

The food was GREAT! The experience was great! EVERYTHING was GREAT! The only thing that was iffy was the parking.

Very tasty burritos put together as desired

The chips were great! I'll definitely try the grape salsa next time, it sounded really good.

Loved my burrito! Flavorful chicken, and they packed that tortilla. I will definitely go back!

No false note. I enjoyed my meal as did the service and friendliness of the employees who, despite my broken English, managed to understand my order The ingredients look fresh and are pretty good (and very strong 🥵) The cake was excellent!

We got burritos and nachos on Friday. There is a huge fresh selection of meat, sours and toppings. In terms of the ordering system, it is structured like a sub...w. The service is friendly and unfortunately mostly only speaks English but it works well with hands and feet :) The burritos/nachos were a dream in terms of taste and size. The steak in the burrito was particularly perfect and with the delicious grape salad inside it was awesome. It still tasted good the next day. I think it's also in the normal price range. We will definitely come more often! Another store is opening in the city center.

Tastes delicious and very service 😋😋

Absolutely best wings in town! I was looking for really good chicken wings - and this restaurant more than exceeded my expectations! The wings are simply perfect: crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside and with a selection of delicious sauces that leave nothing to be desired. The smack sauce especially blew me away! The service was also first class – super friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is cozy and invites you to linger. If you're looking for the best wings in town, you should definitely stop by here. I'll definitely be back!

Great quality and fast service, best burrito I’ve had in Europe.

I've been wanting to come here and try it for a while, and now it finally worked. The possibilities for individually putting together a Burito are huge. There are also other dishes that you can put together. But I came here specifically for the buritos, so I had a big fat burito made for me. You can really choose a lot of ingredients, some of them cost extra, such as: Guacamole. In the end I ended up with €15.50 for a burito, without a drink, fries or anything else. It tasted really good and really big. However, I found €15.50 a bit much for a burito.

It was my first time having lunch here and what can I say, WOW and great food, it really tasted very good and I was able to have it prepared individually. Very nice staff and cool atmosphere. I was just a bit surprised that I had to pay an extra €3.50 for eating in the house because I had to pick up the food at the counter myself and then clear it away myself, but that was bearable because everything else was great.

Best burritos ever…!!! I even always drive 60 km for one. I celebrate the parts!

Fantastic food, great service; parking is a bit of a problem.

Best place in Kaiserslautern to grab some Mexican food

The closest thing to Chipotle in Germany! The staff are always friendly!

Delicious . Must give it a try German Chipotle . Lol

Unfortunately, the menu is completely in English and the staff can't speak a bit of German (which is simply outrageous) just because you've occupied half the city doesn't give you the right not to have to adapt. Integrate yourself, like everyone else. The food is top at good prices. Everything fresh and super seasoned. Very interesting.

One of my favourite restaurants. The food is excellent. I would reccommend to everybody :)

The service and ambience were great, the taste was completely overrated in my opinion, so it's definitely not for me, the burrito was way too full, you can hardly eat it, the taste was pretty average. Queso sauce consists almost entirely of fat. Unfortunately, the parking lot is far too small for the amount of customers, and the price is also significantly too high

Very tasty buritos. Large selection of ingredients. Service on point and friendly. At a minimum of €12.5 per burito, the price is already the upper limit for fast food.

Fantastic food. Always busy when we are there it seems. Staff is always friendly and food is made quickly. One of our favorites.

Been good Everytime. Easy quick lunch spot. Good carnitas. And shrimp. Queso is good too

It was a nice experience. It’s not the most authentic Mexican, but it’s a nice second. Staff is super friendly as well

Amazing burritos! Recommend trying their carnitas. Their mint horchata was interesting, never seen this flavor infusion—had to try it and it was actually really good.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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!

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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!

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

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.

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.
