  • Looking for a quick burrito fix in Singapore? Muchachos is the place to be. This restaurant is a favorite spot for many, especially American expats, to enjoy Tex-Mex burritos.

    Highlights

    • A popular place for burritos: You can build your own burrito from your choice of protein (or greens for vegans) salsa, filings, and sides, after which your burrito will be wrapped in tin foil – classic mission style. The burritos are large enough to be shared by two persons. Chips and guacamole do come at an extra price but they’re worth it.
    • Authentic Mexican hot sauce: If you’re a big fan of Mexican hot sauces like Sriracha and Tapatio, you can have it here at Muchachos. First-timers must be warned of the spiciness of these sauces, though. Other sides and dips like guacamole, pico de gallo, spicy verde salsa, and sour cream, among many others, are also available.
    • Mexican soda and beer: Completing a burrito-themed dining experience with a bottle of Corona beer or Jarritos (soda) wouldn’t have been possible in Singapore without Muchachos. No wonder this burrito joint is being frequented by those who want to have a chill night out after work. Definitely a go-to place for fans of burritos and beers!

    MENU & PRICES:

    • Fried chicken tenders: S$14-S$17.50
    • Churros: S$10.50

    AMBIANCE: The ambiance is cool and laid-back, with stools by the bar suggesting that if you’re dining in, you might as well crack open a beer and savor your burrito to the last bite. Muchachos is a relatively small place, so it’s not ideal for extended stays as it can get easily cramped due to the crowds that come in during the afternoon and dinner.
