“Ordered Burrito from Careem. But disappointed as it doesn’t taste good despite the price is not cheap. Ordered grilled steak but don’t think steak was grilled properly as very chewy. The rice was too soft. To be honest , the worst burrito I have so far .”

Ask for help. If it is your first visit, ask the team to suggest ingredient combinations and sides.
Try salsa. Ask to sample the sauces and consider the mango salsa, which one reviewer called superb.
Check allergies. For children avoiding dairy or wheat, ask about the available allergy-friendly options before ordering.
Check delivery. For delivery, confirm customisations such as no sour cream when the order is handed over.
Consider takeaway. Large takeaway orders are handled patiently, but read out custom choices carefully to avoid mistakes.

One delivery order arrived covered in sour cream despite requesting none, making the bowl inedible.
A delivered steak burrito was reported as chewy, with rice that was too soft and disappointing overall.
The Bottom Line
Tortilla is a made-to-order Mexican restaurant in Nad Al Sheba where you can build tacos, burritos and bowls around your choice of fillings, rice, beans, toppings and sauces. The reviews make it especially appealing for fresh, filling meals: the burrito bundle includes a burrito, chips and a drink, while chicken asado, guacamole and mango salsa receive particularly specific praise. Portions are often described as generous, and staff regularly help diners choose combinations rather than leaving first-timers to guess their way through the line.
That guidance is useful if you want to compare sauces or create a customised order. There are also dairy- and wheat-free options mentioned for children with allergies, though it is sensible to confirm requirements when ordering. Most feedback is very positive about the warm service, fresh food and reasonable value.
The main caution is consistency with delivery customisations: one burrito bowl arrived fully covered in sour cream despite a no-sour-cream request. Another delivered steak burrito had chewy steak and overly soft rice. For dine-in or takeaway, reviews suggest a more dependable experience, with hot food and patient handling of large orders.
