    Has anyone been to this place on the Millennium walk?
    I'm hooked: the burritos MUST have crack in them or something!

    Yeah, Boojum's burritos are massive, and not as nice as Taco Taco's.

    No way is Taco Taco's better. I gotta say I'm loving this place - have been looking for a decent burrito place since the demise of Burritto's and Blues in Ranelagh! Their sauces are really good and everything looks fresh and well prepared. Nice bit of kick if you ask for the hot sauce too.

    I'll admit the first time I went to Taco Taco I thought it was great, but Boojum's blown it out of the water for me..

    Burritos and Blues! Argh! It's always annoyed me that you couldn't get Mexican food delivered from anywhere (afaik), so when I moved to Ranelagh I was delighted, but alas it was too late...

    I was in Boojum on Tues and it was great!
    Having moved here several months ago, I'd started missing this genre or food that is quite common at home (US). Boojum hit the spot for what I was missing.
    I have seen the sign for Pablo Picante, but haven't tried it yet. It's on my list though.
    Where is Taco Taco?

    It's in the Epicurean Food Hall, on Abbey Street, just down the road from Boojum!

    Boojum is a great addition to Dublin - very like Chipotle in the US. I've been hoping for somewhere like this to appear in Dublin for years. For me its far far superior to Taco Taco. Pablo Picantes is also pretty tasty and but Boojum is the best I've tasted so far. I have to say its great to see some of these places opening in Dublin.

    Had a craving and went in here today on a whim.
    Feck.
    Best tex-mex food I've had in Ireland that wasn't home-cooked. Absolutely fantastic. Only thing missing was a chipotle salsa (not sure if their salsa roja has chipotles in it).

    Went to Boojum there about two weeks ago. Hmm... It's ok, not as good as El Paso (RIP) IMO.
    Was in Dundrum last night and went to Cortina's, and it was poor - very expensive, service was slow (how long does it take to make a burrito?) and there wasn't much flavour in the burrito. Defo not as good as Boojum, and you're paying an extra tenner to wait 50 mins for your dinner.

    Has Burrito and Blues reopened yet? Looking forward to that, hopefully they're as good as they were, until then sticking with Pablo, i think they just edge Boojum.
