Connie ChiuApril 15, 2017Super taco with lengua! So moist and tender. The burrito with carne asada were okay. Didn't like the toughness of the carne asada. Long wait and crowded.
emily moyerFebruary 26, 2012carne asada burrito with avocado, followed by Mission Pie's banana cream pie! one of the best meals in sf.
Bryan LimSeptember 12, 2014Get a large watermelon agua fresco. Pray they don't run out of carnitas, but the carne asada is pretty good.
If ordering burritos, ask for it to be grilled. Be ready to be blown away. Your welcome!
Attic FlocJuly 18, 2014they need to update their menu!!! Get the double decker tacos….they are soft and crunchy at the same time!!!!
LilomultipasFebruary 10, 2015Not so good for vegetarian people, good red meat for carnivores, nice for quick meal, crowded and a very down side is that you go out smells like a burrito 😕
EpicuriousAugust 25, 2010The Mission District is full of Mexican joints, but La Taqueria's devotion to quality meats and dynamic salsas have earned it its spot in the San Fran culinary hall of fame.
William JohnsonOctober 21, 2014They have lengua y cabeza tacos. Done right with just onion and cilantro. Had to pop in
Daniel BrunsdonMarch 31, 2013Cash only... But if you come on the right day, you might just get a free pair of tickets to a Giants game.
Order your tacos "dorado" and they'll have a crispy fried tortilla on the inside. Yum!
Alex BaldwinMay 3, 2015Known for the best burrito in America, secretly as best tacos in the Mission.
You cannot get a better burrito anywhere in America. I have checked.
Maya ShanmugamDecember 30, 2015The carnitas tacos are better than the burrito, trust me on this one.
David HaberApril 9, 2016Dorado tacos > burritos imho. Good but far from the 'best burrito in america.'
RichmarkApril 11, 2013Try the Tacos Dorados De Carne Asada - Soft tortilla and crispy tortilla together!!
StephanyJuly 12, 2014Get a carne asada burrito "el dorado" style. Add cheese, sour cream and avocado.
I can die happy having had a dorado style (grilled) burrito here
Abel CastellanosMarch 11, 2013The carne Asada is the best hands down I've ever tasted!!! Super delicious!!!
Tobias KOctober 22, 2017The burritos are very good, but they’re the most expensive in the mission, longest line, and not the best imho.
Don't try to get fancy. Carnitas burrito is all you need.
Matthew RathboneOctober 11, 20122x Carnitas Tacos, crispy-style, then throw in some melon juice for ultimate awesome.
ValerieMay 23, 2016If you're used to Southern Californian Mexican food, this place will not be worth it.
Best burrito in the area. Period. I don't care what you think because YER RONG.
