9 Reviews for 360 Degrees Gourmet Burritos
Build your own burritos and stuff from fresh ingredients.
Quick, tasty, fresh. Much better now that they have had a change of staff and management - it was kinda sour for a while. They have added some items to the menu so its more than burritos.
Love the Quesadilla.

A little pricey, but the burrito was OK. No complaints here.
The guy who took my order was nice.
They have air conditioning inside and about 7 tables for two and a few outside. If those are filled there are more tables between the buildings.
First you choose the style:
Burrito, Bowl, Wrap, Etc
Then you choose the flavor:
Cajun, Curry, Thai, Teriyaki, etc.
Next you choose your type of meat:
Veggies, Steak, Salmon, Prawns, Chicken, etc.
Last you choose your wrap:
Tomato, Wheat, Spinach...
The burritos are quite unique in flavor, but it didn't blow me away. It's definitely worth a try if you're ever near the area, but don't go out of your way just to get one
I started eating here pretty regularly when our office moved to Alameda. I liked the food even though it seemed a little expensive for essentially a tacqueria. Anyhow, it all came to blinding halt when I FOUND A STAPLE IN MY BURRITO!!! I brought it back, they apologized and gave me my money back with no argument. I haven't eaten there since. I take a multivitamin and don't need the extra ALUMINUM from STAPLES!!
Several years ago I was standing in line here and this complete stranger starts to talk to me.
"Let me guess. you're an SA?"
"Yeah"
"UNIX, right?"
It was at this moment that I had what Jules said that alcoholics refer to as a moment of clarity. It's not even like I was wearing a t-shirt with a penguin or shell commands or shit like that*; When your job becomes such a disproportionate part of your identity that strangers can sense it something needs to change. I took a few days off and plotted a change of course. Haven't looked back.
I guess I have 360 to thank for this in a way. The burritos here don't really taste right for some reason; Not really 'bad' but not like a burrito should taste. The rice bowls are ok though and they'll come through for you when you're in a hurry.
*seriously. Even the most egregious workaholics have a modicum of self respect.

Sometimes you just want that "california baja fresh" flavor in a burrito.
When i took classes at Alameda college i use to stop by and grab their rice and bean burrito! It was the romaine is fresh, the spinach wrap was soft, the beans and rice weren't greasy and topped with their sweet and spicy sauce.
Not bad for a chain!
i used to go to 360 when i worked in the financial district. i remember loving them and it being a gourmet(-ish) treat.
times have changed.
it seems a little like asqew in there now. you choose options from columns. which is ok, i guess, if you're sort of familiar with the menu or the options are amazing. but neither is the case here.
and i think i interrupted 'sitting waiting for a customer, looking outside' cashier who didn't seem like she enjoyed getting up to help anyone.
just ok. not a destination, that's for sure.

When I lived around the area I'd always pick up a burrito after getting my hair trimmed at About Beauty. nothing spectacular...big step above Taco Smells but nothing like a Mission district burrito from sf. The burritos taste healthy and the guys behind the counter are always very efficient and friendly.

I love this place. It is "Mexican" fast food that way it should be!! I have been addicted to the steak and prawn burrito for many years. They have an incredible sweet and hot salsa that I want to have on everything I eat there.
The service is usually quick and they get your meal right (I'm a picky eater). The prices are a little more than than "bell" but the difference shows in having edible food, too bad they're not open at 2 AM!
