There are also SEVEN Iowa locations currently!
And I say good luck to them, since I have a deep-seeded love for their Chicken Burrito...

Did I mention that I love the Chicken Burrito?
It's really nothing fancy... just chicken cooked in red sauce and stuffed into a fresh burrito shell with rice, lettuce and cheese.
But I CANNOT STOP ordering it.
This is strange for me, as I typically would want to explore a menu that includes something like the Diablo Burrito: w. french fries, chipotle sauce, sour cream, lettuce, shrimp & steak.
Each time recently I've tried to branch out though, I've been mildly disappointed. So why mess with a good thing?
As such, I can't really comment too much on the other menu items. The other reason I haven't really wrote a blog post about Abelardo's until now is because drive-through burritos really do not lend themselves to dramatic or delicious food photos.
All that being said though, it's really worth checking out if you're into Mexican food at all.
