Restaurants these days — even ones known for large portions or tasty indulgences — need to offer healthy options for special diets or post-workout meals, and Bravo Burrito strikes the perfect balance.

Looking for a hearty amount of cheese and meat? Here are some popular favorites:

  • Bravo’s number one seller: the Deluxe Burrito. People love to add a side of queso to go with the chips.
  • The Queso Rice Bowl (go gluten free but indulge yourself with cheesy goodness).
  • The legendary Smothered Burrito, drenched in sauce and creamy cheese.

All those are perfect for a cheat meal or those times when you don't particularly care to count carbs or calories. But if you do ... Bravo Burrito makes it easy to find what need, too, whether you're low carb, keto, vegan, etc.

Bravo Bowls are as good as the burritos but without the gluten (tortilla). When you order, it’s easy to omit something out of line with your dietary needs. Many health conscious diners choose to skip the rice or the dairy, or opt for a mini size item or swap the flour tortilla for a gluten free corn tortilla. Bravo also has delicious options for vegetarian and vegan food lovers.

When you need to feed a group, Bravo makes it easy with their Meal Kits, which serve between 4 and 20 folks. It's perfect for a family dinner or a business lunch, and when you order, you get to choose from a plethora of options that take into account many dietary options. The Meal Kit is essentially a small taco buffet packaged in disposable containers — easily order them online or in the app for pickup.

If you come back often, you'll see lots of familiar faces, co-owner Mike Lardy said.

"Weve been in the business for nearly four decades now, and I bet we have the smallest employee turnover rate in the industry," he said. "Our regulars come back week after week, our staff stick with us for an average of five years (or more!). This year, Bravo is celebrating 39 years in business and three years since we purchased Bravo from the founders. It’s definitely cause for celebration.”

Whether you're looking for all the cheesy goodness or a health-conscious meal, everything is made fresh from scratch daily. Head to bravoburrito.com/pickup to try some Bravo yourself!
