What people say, in short
BBAD in Pasadena draws praise for breakfast burritos, including the bacon and chile verde versions. Diners repeatedly favor its flavors, and two suggest taking a burrito to the hotel courtyard behind the shop. Value is the main disagreement: some find it expensive or physically small, while one diner describes a dense burrito that was enough to share. A critic found one order ordinary and another unpleasantly dominated by aioli.
