Free mixed corn and flour chips. Beautifully stuffed and wrapped mission burrito. Never has such a perfect cylindrical little burrito baby. Had the special with carnitas and chicharones and two carne asada tacos and a chicken quesadilla. Everything was very good and the chicken was seasoned very well too which isnt the standard experience.

There is so much to say about this place but here are some highlights:
- The decor of this place is beautiful. Down to earth yet thoughtful and colorful.
- The chips are so creative. The puffy ones are amazing with beautiful color. I usually discard most of chips but I need to hunt down for them this time.
- So much variety of salsa and sauce. It is my first time having a warm salsa as well. It is incredible! It is such a service mind to provide all accommodations for all tastebuds.
- The food itself is big and delicious. My quesadilla is packed with carnitas. I wish it can be a bit more crispy but it is also fulfilling. My friend got a seafood plate and it can feed 2 people. All dishes we got are under 20 dollars, which is a rare steal in SF.
In short, this is my new go-to spot for Mexican food in my beloved San Francisco!

Saw in the reviews that they have one of the best vegetarian burritos around... And I gotta say... As a vegetarian... It can compete. Solid fresh salsa bar, appreciated the pickles I got. We also had the El Campo torta. Bread was on point.

I was really hopeful to love this spot - I was disappointed. I got 4 carne asada burritos for my friends and I - all had mostly uneatable meat (grizzle, fat, etc.). That alone makes this spot a 3 stars.
The good: service was lovely and the agua frescas were delicious.

I didn’t take any pictures but to be honest they have the most Mexican flavor that I ever had in SF, if you are looking for a local Mexican taste this os the place, is not fancy dining but the food is very rich in flavor.
The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable
I definitely recommend and for sure I will comeback.

Hate to report that the food no longer tastes the same. Both the enchilada sauce and salsas were watery and missing salt/spice. They didn’t have that authentic, rich Mexican flavor. Food did not taste fresh at all. When food is missing something, I typically use salsa to improve the taste but it was just too sad. I remember this place being my go to years ago. Unfortunately, no longer a gem.

If you want authentic Mexican food and that Pueblo (Town) feeling this is the place to go. You won't be disappointed. I love their platillo de carne asada(steak).
