El Faro - San Francisco

Great burritos, fresh house made salsas, large super burritos (they make a serious claim to serving the first Super inSF). Tacos, tamales, and assorted traditional Mexican favorites served quickly for takeout. Sadly the in house ding is no longer since Covid. Great Mission spot!

Really a genuine, down to earth establishment for your burrito or taco fix. Patience was given in bucketloads to myself as a foreigner who doesn't know their way around the menu. I had tacos, super tasty, no frills just good stuff. They asked if I wanted spicy, I said yes, just a squirt of hot sauce but it packs a good punch without overpowering. Love it. Apparently this is a historical place with claim to influence development of the mission burrito as you might know it today, and home of the super burrito.

I won't say the definitive best place in SF (as there are so many) but definitely mine and my girlfriends absolute favorite. We come here every time we visit the city.

Has always had excellent food. Been going there since 70's myself. Every visit I make to SF, I definitely stop by.

Have been coming for 35 years and love the service and food.
