Baja Shrimp Burrito

$17.95

Beer-battered seasoned shrimp with cilantro slaw, rice, salsa fresca and our Mexican cheese blend, finished with house-made chipotle crema.

Think of this as the Baja Shrimp Taco with room to stretch out. The Baja Shrimp Burrito keeps the crunchy beer batter and cool slaw, then adds rice, cheese and our house-made chipotle crema.

What's in it

Seasoned shrimp is dipped in beer batter and fried until crisp, then wrapped in a flour tortilla with cilantro slaw, rice, salsa fresca and our Mexican cheese blend. A finish of house-made chipotle crema adds smoky richness that plays against the bright slaw. The Baja Shrimp Burrito is $17.95.

Crispy or grilled?

The menu gives you a few directions to go:

  • Grilled Shrimp Burrito ($16.95): seasoned shrimp without the batter, with the same cilantro slaw, rice, salsa fresca, cheese and chipotle crema
  • Baja Fish Burrito ($17.95): beer-battered white fish in place of shrimp
  • Baja Shrimp Taco ($7.99): the same idea on a handmade corn tortilla

If you're torn, let texture decide: go Baja for crunch, grilled for a lighter bite. Our Baja fish tacos guide covers the full seafood lineup.

Make it a meal

Add a Side Combo ($3.50) with two of rice, beans or slaw, plus a cold Pacifico. For office lunches and parties, grilled shrimp burritos also come as a catering tray of 12 half burritos for $75.00; see the catering menu for every option.
