Small, family run, friendly Mexican restaurant in Guadalupe. Disappointed in my burrito as it was chucky-jamed-full of rice, which isn’t even a traditional ingredient in burritos. I was pretty sure of this fact, even so I ChatGPT’ed it: “Rice in burritos is an American innovation, specifically from Mission-style burritos that originated in California in the 1960s.” In the future I’m going to say, “Don’t make it California style!”
