- DensMay 28, 2015Bring a friend and do a spiltty-split with a crispy burrito & some crispy tacos. MAKE SURE YOU ASK FOR CRISPY! So good. ps. if you grab a seat outside near windows you can watch them cut up the pork!Upvoted Oct 20
- Fivethirtyeight burrito bracket put this #1, and they were right. The carnitas are good, but the carne asada is better. Crispy style is a must, though not on the menu.Upvoted Oct 3
- Josh FerraraApril 21, 2017Welcome to Mecca. Get the Super Burrito, your choice of meat (I recommend carne asada or carnitas), and get the burrito Dorado style — AKA thrown on the grill till the tortilla has a nice crisp to it)
- Giulia FerreroAugust 17, 2014Amazing tacos! Definitely worth going for the super version with additional avocado, cheese, and sour cream. Take the pork (carnita) and you will not be disappointed! Cherry on top: cheap and fast!
- Justin McKissickJuly 6, 2018ABSURD lines, super crowded, but absolutely worth it. Getting a seat by the window to watch orders being made is a great way to pass the time.
- Get your burrito "El Dorado" and they'll fry it up on the griddle after it's rolled!
- David PoulsenJanuary 23, 2016Hands down one of my favorite taco places in the Mission District! Order the off menu Dorado taco with Carne Asada or they have the best Lengua tacos in the City. You can't go wrong eating here!
- Yera HaOctober 13, 2015Cash only! Here's your exact order: super carne asada crispy style burrito. Don't forget to drown in the green sauce and grab LOTS of napkins.
- Chefs FeedApril 5, 2017La Taqueria's burritos are delicious, and my favorite protein is their chicken. It's so moist and fresh. You must get this burrito with their hot sauce. Read more
- Yes, believe the hype. This place is that good. Lines get long, but totally worth it. The tacos have huge portions - so order accordingly. Carne asada and beef tongue were so good!
- So good - have to get your burrito Dorado style. I like mine with half lengua for the extra richness. Get an agua Fresca too.
- Mike WinstonAugust 29, 2018Let's get one thing straight. This is not the best burrito in the country. Not even the best in SF. The filling is fairly bland, but that griddled tortilla is totally amazing. WinstonWanders.com
- jiresellOctober 5, 2016The line can go out the door, but moves quickly. Simply delicious! Be sure to get you burrito "Dorado" style, i.e. Grilled!
- Cole KennedyOctober 28, 2018The burrito is definitely better than anything you can get in NYC, but I still prefer mine with rice.
- Calin DaianFebruary 15, 2015Any burrito and taco is amazing here! The best texture, the best sauce. Order the pickled carrots and pepper with the meal, they're free. They also toast the wrapped burrito upon request
- Two cabeza tacos. Add cheese. Get them dorado (crispy). If the line is too long, walk to Taqueria Guadalajara and get the carnitas tacos.
- Mohit SMay 27, 2016You want a super burrito and you want it "dorado style". They'll make your burrito, then put it back on the grill for the perfect tortilla.
- Javier Cambon SanjurjoOctober 12, 2014Strong carnitas supertacos (el dorado and regular). Loved the horchata! The super burrito is very good, but cannot beat the one from el farolito.
- Alexa (@ladylexy) AndrzejewskiOctober 19, 2013Try the Tacos Dorados - These are the crispy style tacos. Soft on the outside, crispy on the inside and stuffed with tasty grilled fillings. How have I missed these all this time??
- Grace S.December 3, 2015Best Carne Asada taco in the city! Carne Asada is cut in long strips and has a nice charred flavor. Fillings are plentiful and pico de gallo topping is super fresh and delicious!
- Tony XerriMay 23, 2013Im the biggest lengua snob in the world. This place, has AMAZING lengua. Make sure you get the burrito because they will stack it to no end and fill your ass up good. Negro Modello for beer of choice.
- Johnny AppleseedSeptember 28, 2015La Taqueria is an amazing place for burritos deep into the SF mission district. The seating isn't too great but the food is amazing. My favorite Mexican takeout in San Francisco!
- BommyFebruary 5, 2018Hefty and delicious vegetarian tacos. There will most likely always be a line, even at 11:30am on a sunday. Cash only.
- Ines ChanJune 15, 2018This is the only super burrito I’d pay $12 for, hands down. Get it dorado style like everyone else (and the hot sauce is a nice touch). What a game changer.
- Ellen McGrodyJanuary 28, 2016It's good! I don't know if it's worthy of the immense amount of hype, but the green sauce is delicious, and the carnitas is a must try.
- Annie B.August 10, 2014Solid, no-nonsense Mexican food. The burritos are good, but the tacos steal the show. Can't go wrong with the Carnitas crispy style taco.

- AJApril 20, 2016One of my absolutely all time favorites. Was thinking about the chorizo taco the whole flight in from London. Never disappoints!

- Vivian WangJuly 5, 2015Tacos with everything! Love their two layers of shell, one soft one slightly crunchy. Loaded with cheese, avocado and meat.
- Flour cheese quesadilla is out of this world. Traditional burrito without rice is packed full of tastiness. The Fresca and horchata are delicious too.
- Jose PalomaresAugust 26, 2016The carnitas burrito is superbly juicy, better than any other carnitas I've tried. Get it super, and when bored, maybe try the carne asada, also goood
- hiroticksMay 5, 2018It's cash-only, so be prepared. Also, the place gets packed around lunch, but it's a fast line. The trick is scoring seats. Just be nice to people and generally, someone will share tables.
- Petr J.November 4, 2018I have never seen so well organized and efficient kitchen crew. Crowds of people entering every minute, but your order is still prepared within minutes...
- Rob AtkinsonNovember 7, 2015One of the best burrito places in SF. Get a super burrito with carnitas. Try it grilled to get it a bit crispy and melted. Cash only
- RosalineNovember 7, 2015Worth the line up. Burritos are small so super size and order them crispy. Green sauce at the table is spicy! Drinks can be skipped - I've had a better horchata
- Ina LiMarch 20, 2015Their taco has one crunchy layer and one soft layer of tortilla. Only 3-5 dollars. So delicious! Cash only!
- Get the "Super" everything! Super Burrito, Super Taco etc! This means guac, sour cream and all the good stuff on top of the regular dish!
- Mark KupasrimonkolJuly 14, 2015Great burrito! Drench it with there amazing green sauce and keep your eyes on the prize, you really don't want to see how much oil it takes to fry these suckers.
- Brian StraussApril 19, 2017The carne asada is amazing: big, gristle free chunks. No rice in the burritos or anywhere on the premises makes burrito a fairly juicy affair.
- AvaAugust 15, 2014One of the few places I can find a vegetarian taco that doesn't leave me feeling like I'm lacking ingredients...so tasty. Also very good prices and short waits for food.
