★★★★★ 5-Star Foodie Review

As someone who is always on the hunt for unforgettable meals and hidden culinary gems, I can say without hesitation that the 18-inch Davenport Burrito from Costa Azul in Davenport, California is one of the most impressive burritos I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing.

The sheer size commands attention. At a full 18 inches, this burrito isn’t just a meal, it’s an event. Yet what truly sets it apart isn’t its size. It’s the quality packed into every single bite. Overflowing with tender, flavorful meat, fresh ingredients, and perfectly balanced fillings, this burrito delivers incredible flavor from beginning to end. Even the generous 4.25-inch portion feels substantial enough to satisfy most appetites.

No great Mexican meal is complete without exceptional salsa, and Costa Azul absolutely delivers. The assortment of fresh house-made salsas was outstanding, each bringing its own unique character to the table. The green salsa quickly became my personal favorite, offering the perfect combination of bright flavor, freshness, and just the right amount of heat. It elevated every bite and had me reaching back for more.

The accompanying fresh chips were crisp, light, and addictive, making them the ideal companion to sample each salsa. It’s the kind of thoughtful touch that transforms a good meal into a memorable dining experience.

Perhaps most impressive is the value. In an era where portions seem to shrink while prices climb, Costa Azul offers a refreshing reminder of what true hospitality looks like. The portions are generous, the ingredients are fresh, the flavors are authentic, and the price point represents exceptional value for the money.

Costa Azul’s 18-inch Davenport Burrito isn’t just oversized for the sake of novelty. It’s expertly crafted comfort food that delivers on taste, quality, and satisfaction. Whether you’re a devoted burrito enthusiast, a serious foodie, or simply someone who appreciates a fantastic meal, this is a destination-worthy experience or call ahead and get it to go, perfect for a sunset meal on the cliffs of some of the most spectacular coastline in Santa Cruz County.

Final Verdict: ★★★★★ (5/5 Stars)

A true California coastal treasure. Come hungry, bring friends, and don’t skip the green salsa. You’ll be talking about this burrito long after the last bite.

Stopped by randomly on a drive back to San Jose after noticing the “open” sign, and so glad we did! The food was very fresh and completely delicious, and they are happy to accommodate random requests or alterations. I look forward to the next visit. 🙂
