What matters before you order
Beefy 5-Layer Burrito is a dense, sauce-forward burrito built from seasoned beef, beans, sour cream, cheddar and nacho cheese. It is not the cheapest burrito, but it combines two cheese elements and beans in the base price. Users comparing it with Burrito Supreme should focus on composition: 5-Layer is heavier and creamier, while Burrito Supreme includes more vegetables and red sauce.
What the price means
The official web-menu reference is $4.19. Four saved official restaurant prices range from $3.29 to $5.39, a $2.10 spread that is large enough to change the value decision. At the low end it competes with value burritos; at the high end it approaches Burrito Supreme pricing. Users should therefore compare the exact selected-store price rather than relying on a single national-looking number.
Item overview
A warm flour tortilla with seasoned beef, refried beans, reduced-fat sour cream and shredded cheddar cheese, plus a layer of warm nacho cheese sauce.
What is included
This component list is taken from the current Taco Bell-controlled product page used in this research. It describes the referenced base configuration, not every possible customization.
Official customization paths
- Fresco: replaces dairy and mayo-based sauces with pico de gallo
- Grilled: adds a grilled finish
Popular upgrade reference
| Upgrade | Reference add-on price | Added calories |
|---|---|---|
| Seasoned rice | $0.60 | 50 Cal |
| Onions | $0.50 | 0 Cal |
| Red sauce | $0.45 | 10 Cal |
| Creamy jalapeño sauce | $0.70 | 60 Cal |
How to customize without losing the value
Seasoned rice adds body for a $0.60 reference and takes the estimated subtotal to $4.79. Onions add flavor without listed calories, while red sauce is a low-cost moisture and flavor addition. Creamy jalapeño sauce creates more overlap with the existing sour cream and nacho cheese, so it is a preference upgrade rather than a clear value upgrade. Fresco substantially changes this dairy-heavy base and should be verified in the official checkout.

Practical ordering advice
Choose it when the included beans and two cheese components match what you already want. When the local price is near the top of the observed range, compare Burrito Supreme, Grilled Cheese Burrito and current boxes before ordering. A grilled finish can improve structure for pickup, especially if additional sauce or rice is added.
Availability intelligence
Listed on the current official U.S. web menu; restaurant participation varies. The item should be treated as location- and participation-dependent. For breakfast items, local breakfast participation and cutoff time also apply.
This item is not marked vegetarian in the current category listing used for this page.
Nutrition and allergen use
The standard item is listed at 490 calories. The combination of flour tortilla, cheddar, nacho cheese and sour cream makes milk and wheat central considerations, and the meat-and-bean filling creates a much denser item than the 390-calorie Burrito Supreme. Exact nutrition after removals or additions should come from the current nutrition tool; subtracting individual components can be misleading when serving amounts change.
