I went on "Taco Tuesday" during the 12 o'clock hour and had about a 5 min wait in line for food followed by another 5-10 mins for food to come out. The restaurant is about the size of a Taco Bell with some additional seating on the patio. The cashier was friendly and efficient. The facility itself was relatively clean throughout.
I ordered a carne asada burrito to go. The menu states that the burrito comes with chips, beans, and rice, but I didn't receive get the beans or rice in my to-go bag. They have a very small salsa bar (red and green salsas plus a few peppers on the side), but containers are held ransom at the register where they are divvied out based on your order. I received two small containers (same size as at any other similar restaurant) and tried both the red and green salsas.
Salsas: Red - chunky salsa with medium heat and plenty of onions to spare. Green - Moderately chunky tomatillo salsa with medium to hot spice. Both were of good flavor, but nothing extraordinary. The chips, however, were quite stale.
I added cheese and sour cream to my burrito which I found to be fairly good. The star of the burrito was really the tortilla which held up nicely and had a pleasant flaky exterior. The steak was tender and well seasoned.
Overall, I'd give The Original Burrito Company a solid 3.5 stars based on the whole experience and would visit again.
