Hard-to-Find Juárez-Style Burritos—Fluffy, Meaty, Totally Dreamy—Are Getting Rolled in Fort Greene

The popular pop-up Los Burritos Juárez now has a permanent home on Myrtle.

Chef Alan Delgado has only lived in Brooklyn since 2020—he grew up on the Texas-Chihuahua border, bopping between El Paso and Ciudad de Juárez, and became famous for his food working in Austin kitchens for a dozen years after that—but his impact here has already been outsized, to say the least. 

Delgado's first two NYC postings, at the vibey Mexican spot Oxomoco in Greenpoint and the vegan, early-Covid-era Xilonen nearby (RIP), earned him plenty of acclaim. But the chef's most important contribution (so far!), has been the crazy delicious flour tortillas he perfected in his Williamsburg apartment, sold at burrito pop-ups all over town, and now hand-rolls by the hundreds at his spiffy new storefront on Myrtle Avenue, Los Burritos Juárez.
