Dolores California Burritos

Dolores California Burritos: Berlin’s Veteran for Affordable Lunch Breaks

In 2004, Dolores pioneered the German burrito trend and was the first to bring the Californian burrito to Berlin. Since then, the basic idea hasn’t changed, and that’s a good thing. Everything is lovingly prepared daily by hand in their own kitchen using the freshest ingredients. You can taste it. So, for anyone looking for an affordable lunch in Mitte or Schöneberg, this is one of the most reliable addresses in the city.

The concept is simple and has worked for over two decades: Everyone customizes their California Burrito exactly as they want it – vegan, vegetarian, or with meat, mild or fiery hot. Furthermore, about 70 percent of Dolores’s offerings are vegan, which was true pioneering work at the opening and is now a natural strength of the shop.
