Super burrito was a flavorless wet mess, and took 15 mins to make. Too slow and disappointing food. If you serve lunch downtown during the week, you have to go much faster than that.

The best tacos we have had so far during our road trip through California. I had the tacos with carne asada, and I was impressed by taste of the meat and salsa of these tacos 🤤 The prices are very competitive too.

Okay food, not spicy enough and pretty dry, I would have appreciated if they offered some salsa or anything really. Basic counter, no smile, service. Just order, sit and leave. Very ugly restaurant, but that's not why you would go there anyway.

TIL this restaurant is not affiliated with El Farolito.

Did an online order for takeout, when I arrived the staff microwaved my food right in front of me. The takeout boxes were so flimsy that my enchilada started soaking through. The food overall is strangely wet/soupy, probably all just reheated frozen food.

The Service:
I ordered a super steak burrito yesterday and was impressed with the service—it was truly 5-star. I communicated my order clearly, had a friendly interaction with the staff (we even shared a laugh), and left a tip because of the positive experience.

The Food:
Unfortunately, the food didn’t match the service. The burrito I received was not what I paid for. It only contained meat and beans—no rice, no guacamole, no sour cream, pico de gallo, or cheese. For a ā€œsuperā€ burrito, I expected the full list of standard ingredients. I was disappointed in the quality and accuracy of what I received.

I from San Francisco to Florida and every time I come back this is one of the places I make my business to stop at and the Acapulco burrito is always what I get is perfect. I always make arrangements to be able to pack my burritos back to Florida cause they can’t make burritos like I get here

Very good burrito

Great place, looks like a family run operation. Friendly staff with cheerful smiles. Had a basic, plain and simple no meat burrito with black beans, rice, lettuce, and pico de gallo. Delicious. Came in hungry, left very happy and satisfied.
