Son Del North is adamant about one thing, and that is that there is not, and will never be, any rice in their burritos. It’s the only thing painted on the walls of this tiny fast-casual burrito counter on the Lower East Side, and it’s a fantastic move that really lets the other fillings shine. Every burrito has buttery mayocoba beans, big chunks of avocado, and a generous amount of cheese, wrapped up in a flaky, chewy tortilla flown in from Sonora. It’s an all-around creamy mix, which you can get with a variety of fillings, but the steak is our favorite. Open until 12am, Son del North can get mobbed with people drinking their way down Orchard Street, but the staff keep it moving. There are no seats, just a couple of benches on the sidewalk. It’s not the ideal set-up for dumping Son’s roasted green chili sauce on each bite—so take yours to go.
