While I was in San Francisco, I visited Taquería El Farolito. This place is just across the street from 24th St Mission BART Station. One of the first things that I noticed when I got there was the line. This place usually has quite a line up waiting to order, which is a good sign to me!
I ordered a Super Burrito, which comes with rice, beans, salsa, sour cream, cheese, avocado, and any meat you choose. I decided to go for a Super Burrito with Carne Asada. Carne Asada refers to Steak at this place. This was one really great burrito! One of the highlights is the steak. The steak was not dry, nicely cooked, soft, tender, and well seasoned. This was definitely one of the key items that made the burrito really great. Also, the sour cream was nice and flavourful, but not too thick and not too strong, which I also liked. The rice was also really good. The burrito was filled with ingredients, and the combination of all of the ingredients made the burrito quite flavourful. Surprisingly, it wasn’t very sloppy either. I really enjoyed this burrito!
Right in the heart of 24th & Mission this place never disappoints! Very generous portions of meat! Place looks small but they have an outside patio for dining in the back as well! Cash only! 🤑
The burrito was unforgettable! They don’t make them like this on the East Coast! We got the super with chorizo—crispy, flavorful chorizo with the right amount of cool wetness from the avocado and sour cream. Not a fancy place, and the area doesn’t feel super safe, but all in all worth the trek!
