Health Tips:

  • Tacos – Nutrition charts for tacos vary slightly by ingredients but generally contain between 170 and 190 calories, with 10 or so grams of fat and less than 20 grams of carbohydrates.
  • Burritos – Traditional offerings include the chicken burrito, which boasts 440 calories per serving, 18 grams of fat, 46 grams of carbs, 960mg of sodium, and 30mg cholesterol. Patrons ordering grilled stuffed burritos should expect to consume at least 830 calories for chicken versions of the menu item and upwards of 40 grams of fat, 96 grams of carbs, 2,200mg of sodium, and 85mg of cholesterol.
  • Individuals with specific dietary needs must indicate so at the onset of orders to avoid contamination from unwanted ingredients.
  • Fresco Menu – The items boast fewer ingredients than other daily offerings and generally fall around 140 calories for tacos and no more than 350 calories for burritos per serving. Every option contains less than 10 grams of fat, which serves as the basic premise for the particular portion of the menu.
  • Breakfast – Customers may order breakfast crunchwrap meals featuring egg, bacon, sausage, and cheese (700 calories/41 grams of fat), or A.M. grillers containing breakfast meats, eggs, and cheese (230 calories/14 grams of fat).
  • Gluten Free – The health-conscious menu items represent ideal options for individuals with gluten-restrictive diets. On average, taco salads contain 750 and 800 calories and around 35 grams of fat per serving.
  • Nachos – A standard order of nachos contains 290 calories and 16 grams of fat. Customers should expect to consume 100s of milligrams of sodium per serving of nachos due to the salted corn chips used as the bases for the menu items.
  • Cheese & sauces – Reduce fat by leaving out cheese and forgoing the use of dipping sauces like ranch dressing.

    I never knew I was eating so many calories!

  2. Madelynn says:

    1,100 calories in volcano nachos?! YUCK!!!

  3. Colleen says:

    I always get the Steak Grilled Stuff Burrito. I think its disgusting that I eat all of my calorie intake for one day in 1 burrito!!!

  4. Jempro says:

    Fresco chicken soft taco has ONLY 170 – eat two for 340 – very nice lunch!! I’m going back!!

  5. Ber says:

    As long as you portion yourself, this stuff isn’t all that bad… and people should eat an average of 2000 calories a day. But if you factor in all of the walking people do (the average person) then you can eat 4000 calories a day as long as you’re sure you did enough. So you could eat 4 volcano nachoes a day. 😀

  6. colleen says:

    The sodium is off the charts!!

  7. Mary B says:

    how many calories are in a cantina bowl?

  8. Madonna says:

  9. Lin says:

  10. Tim Church says:
