The Miguel's Jr. Cali Burrito is being added to the brand's menu as a new West Coast-inspired option that doesn't skimp when it comes to taste or quality.
The burrito is crafted with the brand's new flame-grilled carne asada that has been seasoned with a signature house blend seasoning to give every bite a meaty yet spiced flavor profile. The burrito is also paired with seasoned fries in the mix alongside jack cheese, guacamole, serrano salsa, tomatoes, cilantro and onions, all served in a flour tortilla. The brand is also launching Side Fries, Loaded Fries and a Churro for dessert.
CEO Javier Vasquez spoke on the Miguel's Jr. Cali Burrito saying, "Elevating a California-Mexican classic like the Cali Burrito is no small task. We’ve crafted ours with juicy, flame-grilled carne asada, fresh guacamole, and vibrant toppings to deliver an unforgettable bite. And in a world dominated by fries, we knew it was time to show how Miguel’s Jr. does them—unexpected, bold, and undeniably delicious."
