A Review of Freebirds World Burritos in Houston, Texas

Freebirds World Burritos in Houston, Texas is a great place to have a quick Mexican meal. Freebirds is open about the fact that they use hydrogenated oil in their tortillas but they have many other menu options if you're watching your diet. The burritos come in four sizes: hybrid, freebird, monster, and super monster. We ordered the freebird which was huge; it was so large that I had to actually take my leftovers home - and I was starving when I started my meal.
Customers place their order, watch their food being made and pay at the cashier similar to Quiznos or Subway.
