Brand overview
Blue Burro is a Mexican fast casual restaurant franchise that combines traditional family recipes with quick-service dining. Founded by Ivan Flores, the brand stems from his childhood dream of blending his grandparents' Baja ranch traditions with a modern, efficient approach. After finding success with The Buffalo Spot franchise, Ivan returned to his original vision and opened the first Blue Burro in Long Beach in 2019. The menu offers a streamlined selection of fresh burritos, tacos, aguas frescas, shakes, and fries made to order.
