I dont care what people say, I think Neato Burrito is a good name.

Even more importantly, the former Slickrock Burrito is now hipper than thou, almost up there with Stefan. (Almost.) Lovely new interior, as well as opening hours until 2am. The latter is obviously great, not just because a burrito pairs well with inebriation (and it does,) but something like this definitely help fuel the scene downtown. Outside of The Satellite, Scratch (when they decide to stay open,) and a tiny handful of other places, late night dining is pretty much limited to large fast food franchises.

As for Neato; the menu is largely the same, but the end product has definitely improved. From what I understand, they are now a whole lot more generous with things like lime, spices, and other flavor enhancers than Slickrock was, and it shows. Or tastes. Or whatever.

Before going to see the brilliant Cloverfield, I tried the new BBQ burrito which was delicious. Brisket, pinto beans, spicy sour cream, a very fresh tasting salsa… If food is sex, then a late night burrito paired with a Northern Lights IPA is Jessica Lucas.

Neato is awesome (see, I didn’t go for a cheap pun) and should be re-discovered by all.

Yes :-) LeRoi's review (May 2nd 2007)

Slick Rock Burrito recently finished Second Place behind Ionic Burrito for The Inlander’s Best Burrito Award but I beg to differ. I dine at the Slick Rock South frequently and the burritos are always rolled fat and easily customized. They have great choices of tortillas, fillings and hot sauces. The veggie Thai is a fan favorite but the carnitas are simply the best.

Yes :-) Sara's review (Jun 5th 2007)

Although I wasn’t impressed on my first visit with the potato-chipotle burrito, I gave them another go, and I ordered the chicken Thai burrito with the spinach tortilla. I know there are a lot of places to get a Thai burrito around here, but I really enjoyed this one, much more so than the one I had at Ionic. I’ve only been to the South Hill location, and the employees there seem very dedicated to specializing your order to just how you want it. So though you may not like every burrito they offer, there’s bound to be at least one combination you really like. Around $6 per burrito might seem like a lot to some, but they’re big and you might even be able to get two meals out of one.
