Ordered doordash my burrito was awful. Ordered a bunch of fillings like lettuce cheese salsa and sour cream but the burrito was 90% rice and it was dry, no sauce otr anything i ordered inside of it.
Not to mention the disgusting old tasting guacamole i got sent. I took 2 bites and tossed it in the trash. In total i only ate about half the burrito and only the chips. What a total waste of time and money. I hope they can make this right
