Barrio Burrito Bar's new Boca Raton location brings customizable Tex-Mex dining and job opportunities to the community while expanding the brand's national footprint.

Barrio Burrito Bar has opened its newest fast-casual Tex-Mex restaurant in Boca Raton, Florida, bringing bold flavors and customizable dining options to the local community. The restaurant, located at 20449 State Rd 7, Suite A-6 inside Mission Bay Plaza, offers guests the ability to build their perfect burrito, bowl, or taco with fresh ingredients and house-made salsas prepared daily. This expansion represents the brand's continued growth strategy and commitment to bringing fresh dining concepts to new markets.
The Boca Raton location is owned and operated by business partners Pranav Vankawala and Prateek Shrestha, experienced multi-unit franchise owners who bring more than a decade of restaurant and business management expertise to the community. Vankawala explained their motivation for choosing Barrio Burrito Bar, stating they were drawn to its operational simplicity, fresh ingredients, and flavor-forward menu that allows every guest to create their ideal meal. The partners specifically sought to bring something fresh and exciting to Boca Raton's fast-casual dining scene, recognizing how the concept aligns with the area's vibrant, food-loving culture.
The new 1,100-square-foot restaurant features both indoor and outdoor seating and has created employment opportunities for 15 local staff members. The menu emphasizes customization, allowing guests to select from bases like Mexican rice or lettuce, proteins including slow-roasted carnitas or fajita veggies, and eight signature sauces such as Bang Bang and pineapple salsa. This approach to dining reflects broader trends in the restaurant industry toward personalized experiences and fresh, made-to-order meals. The restaurant's opening contributes to local economic development through job creation and increased dining options for residents and visitors alike.
To celebrate its debut, Barrio Burrito Bar will host a Grand Opening event on November 12 featuring a one-day-only promotion of regular burritos and bowls for just $5.99. The restaurant's vibrant and welcoming atmosphere positions it as a destination for lunch breaks, family dinners, or casual nights out. Guests can dine in, order ahead online, or choose delivery through third-party apps. Those interested in regular benefits can join the Loyalty Rewards Program to access exclusive offers and receive a complimentary order of chips and queso with their first sign-up.
