Sometimes you’re not just hungry — you’re super hungry. The kind of hungry that laughs at tacos, scoffs at nachos, and demands a burrito the size of a newborn. If that’s you, you’re welcome.

I went looking for the biggest burritos in Lubbock, and this list is for those moments when moderation has left the conversation.

Before we begin, a quick disclaimer: biggest doesn’t automatically mean best — but it also doesn’t mean it isn’t the best. For this list, we’re judging on sheer size alone. No flavor debates. No salsa opinions. No tortilla science. Just burrito mass.

My search kicked back several places where customer reviews specifically used phrases like “huge,” “humongous,” “heavy,” and the scientific classic “too big to finish.” There’s no official measuring tape involved here, so consider these reliable “sure things” when your stomach is making demands.

Picantes

If there were an Olympic event for burrito size, Picantes would medal. Customers routinely describe their burritos as “humongous” and “too big to finish,” which is basically the highest form of burrito praise. These are commitment burritos — the kind you don’t order lightly.

📍 3814 34th Street, Lubbock, TX

The Plaza Restaurant

The Plaza earns its spot thanks to the boldly named El Grande Burrito, made with their largest flour tortilla and stuffed accordingly. When a burrito announces its size right in the name, it’s best to listen. This is a fork-and-knife situation for many diners.

📍 5029 Milwaukee Ave
📍 8217 University Ave, Lubbock, TX

Burrito King

Burrito King regularly comes up in conversations about filling burritos thanks to its homemade tortillas, which act like reinforced concrete for the mountain of ingredients inside. It’s simple, unpretentious, and reliably heavy in the best way.

📍 1620 Avenue Q, Lubbock, TX

Asada Mexican Grill

Asada showed up thanks to Reddit users describing their burritos as “heavy.” That adjective matters. These aren’t flimsy wraps — they have weight, presence, and consequences. Order accordingly.

📍 10609 Slide Road, Suite 500, Lubbock, TX

Mi Tierra Mexican Restaurant

Breakfast burrito fans, this one’s for you. Mi Tierra was repeatedly mentioned for huge breakfast burritos — the kind that instantly end productivity for the rest of the morning. Order one, cancel at least one meeting.

📍 5217 98th Street, Suite 900
📍 11601 Quaker Ave, Lubbock, TX
