Editorial Review for Purple Cactus Burrito & Wrap Bar – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
One of Jamaica Plain's quicker, cheaper options for healthy meal, the Purple Cactus attracts a suitably eclectic crowd. After choosing a tortilla or wrap (white flour, whole wheat, spinach, red chile), patrons opt for fillings like grilled chicken, roasted vegetables, goat cheese and ginger-peanut sauce. Fresh salads and soups round out the food offerings. Health-minded customers rarely depart with out a freshly-squeezed juice or fruity smoothie.

If you like overpriced, bland burritos, this is the place for you. Serious lack of ambiance with too many tables in too little space. The extras (sour cream and guac) are really small portions and add up to BIG dollars $$$ before you even know it. I have to agree with the last few reviewers and will not recommend the Purple Cactus. .A couple of new quick food places have opened up very close to this place recently with bigger protions, better food, and better prices.

Decided to try this place with my brother and sister who were in town for a few days cuz I had walked by a few times and it seemed ok from the outside. Not a good experience... SLOW service, messy tables, watery chilli (ick!), ,VERY expensive for the food that was delivered. Don't mind paying for a good, hot burrito, but this place just isn't worth it for the food you get. Bland drippy burritos, and they take your wallet by charging extra for every little thing that most other burrito places include!! Also, they ask you if you want different things on your burrito but don't tell you that these things are extra charges until you have to pay. WHOA - Our bill ended up being WAY more than we had anticipated. My suggestion is to avoid this place and go elsewhere.
Pros: sunny place
Cons: expensive, bland
