I go here about once a week with my wife. We usually just get burritos, so I will stick to talking about those. At the beginning, the burritos were rather bland, but then they changed their recipe a few months ago and they are much tastier now. I will corroborate other reviewers' observation that the burritos don't have enough meat. For an additional 8 kuai I always get my chicken burrito with double-meat (双份肉) to compensate.

Their guacamole is good, but their chips are too oily as others have pointed out. They do get them nice and salty, though, if you like that sort of thing. Their salsa (more like pico de gallo) is only so-so. It's too chunky for my tastes (it has almost no liquid, just chopped up tomatoes and other stuff).

Their ambiance is good, but I find their menus up on the wall ugly and disorganized. They have also started dabbling in regular old Chinese food as well, which worries me a little. I want a burrito place that specializes in burritos, dammit!

Their music is a good mix of alternative rock and sometimes some other stuff.

It might be four stars if I stopped here, but here are some other annoyances:

The burritos are wrapped poorly. The double-meat doesn't help the situation, but if they can't wrap it they shouldn't sell it. Oftentimes the burrito isn't fully sealed, especially at the ends, and as you eat it starts falling apart. I have sent the burrito back a few times telling them to re-wrap it. They wrapped it in a second tortilla, which did the trick.

They don't provide free water. I mean, when was the last time you ate somewhere that didn't have free water? (Now they definitely know who I am since I put that in the complaint box every time)

I don't get the comparisons to Chipotle, they are both just fast food burrito places of which there are a million in the States. The food tastes nothing at all like each other and the menu choices are completely different. They don't even have Chipotle sauce! I thought it was decent for Mexican in Beijing, just nothing like Chipotle. The guacamole was probably the best I've had in Beijing but that's not saying too much.

Avocado Tree probably warrants a 3 star but since there is nothing else like it in WDK I bumped it up to 4.

Burritos are overpriced for the sheer lack of meat. Mostly rice and veggies, which causes a lack of flavor. I have tried twice now and have same results as other readers.

Oddly enough, the soft tacos at 9rmb are a huge value, and seem to have more meat than the burritos. The chicken one isn't spicy, but tasty. They have 2 other beef tacos which are a little spicy and have good taste. If you eat in house they bring the tacos individually wrapped in a paper sleeve. However if you order them to go, they squeeze them all together wrapped in foil so when you arrive at home you have a wet soggy, stuck together mess.

Their fresh mint tea is not too bad either.

I haven't tried anything else on the menu yet...

I read mr good looking review of this restaurant, and thought since I am fat and bulgy maybe a good supreme buritto would help me on my way to being buried in a piano box. Anyway the food was good until a cockroach was found in the lettuce, and I complained about it to the owner. He said how can you say that is a cockroach, I then showed him the legs. He accused me of putting them in there. I threw the buritto down and called the wei sheng ju. I would stay away from this place unless, you don't mind beijings own critters in your food. And Also I feel like a new man, having been spared eating the whole thing, maybe Mr euro tracy happy face who gave the restaurant 5 stars is right, maybe there is hope for my fat ass to be euro sexy and sweat free. Thank you for your help.

Buyer Beware.

Ok, the fake reviews are a little shameful, but myself and friends have been eating at Avocado Tree pretty regularly since it opened, and here's my take:

Chips with guacamole and salsa for 15 kuai: it's tasty and fresh and you really can't get a better deal for guacamole anywhere else in Beijing. Sooometimes the chips are a little too oily and get a bit soggy, but probably 8 out of the last 10 times, they've been crispy, lightly salty and good.

Sure, the burritos are not quite as exciting, but I tend to enjoy my chicken burrito every time I have it. Basically, though I wouldn't necessarily go just for the burrito, it's decent enough that I'm happy to have one with my chips and guac, which I would go for. I've never had mine fall apart on me like the other reviewer, though I've heard quite a few grumbles about the low meat ratio. Personally, I've been in a stage where I get grossed out when there's too much meat in stuff, so I don't tend to notice when there's "not enough." For me, I'm happy when I get some meat every second or third bite. Shrug. (Plus, I miss sweet corn here, and the black beans are a nice touch.)

If there's anything AT can be criticized for, it would be the inconsistency. Sometimes it's a gamble, but when it's on it's quite satisfying.

The girl who owns/manages the place also seems pretty eager to keep customers happy. Couple friends of mine suggested she serve beer and start one of those "Buy X burritos get one free" and she implemented both within a week or so.

I have to admit I'm selfishly bumping my rating to 4 stars, cuz I'm pretty stoked I can get good, reasonably-priced guacamole in wdk, and I'll be sad if that golden goose stops laying its eggs...

The food IS pretty good, but we NEED CHEESE. :>

If you like and miss chipotle, this place is just like chipotle, except I would say their shredded beef burritos are even better! I have no idea where they get their chipotle adobo sauce, must be imported, because it tastes so authentic. Definitely try it, their food speaks for itself.
