At six-unit Burrito Beach, bowls are a newer addition to a menu that had traditionally focused on burritos, tacos, quesadillas and nachos. Chef Dave Schy has expanded customization options by giving guests the opportunity to build a bowl with a base of quinoa and/or rice topped with several protein choices, including char-grilled chicken, beef brisket, sirloin or shrimp. Here, garlicky spiced Cabo shrimp top the entree bowl.
