It was a great experience to taste Mexican food .

I have been a frequent customer for about 6 years. I like the quesadillas they sold before. Everything was good but on the last few occasions I have ended up disappointed.
On one occasion my beef quesadilla stank of cow manure, I was told that's what the meat smelled like. Today when I bought my quesadilla, the meat was spoiled, it stank of rot.
I don't know what's happening but the quality has been lost, they serve stinky meat or else it has a lot of fiber or they refuse to give more sauces even when they offer to pay more for the sauces.

Barely Any MEAT. I Kept SCOOPING Rice and beans and cheese but only got about 3 small spoons of meat. I Only Go To 2 Burrito Places El TUCAN in Richmond and This El Farolito. I have been SKIMPED and on THE MEAT ? ON BOTH. This might be a new trend. I GUESS HARD TIMES IS HITTING US ALL. I love El FAROLITO. I hope things get better for all Restaurants.
OH and please TONE DOWN THE SALT OF THE SALSA.

This is the best burrito in the peninsula, hands down. This is what a burrito should taste like! I've been coming here for decades, and the consistency stays the same. It's always a great price at $9 super burritos! The service is always friendly and even if it's crowded you still don't wait long for your food! Also, the original El Farolito in SF invented the burrito.

The food was not like the rest of them other farolitos the beans was hard and the rice was hard too which means that they was not cooked all the way through. And I asked for two alpastor burritos and they didn’t put meat no wonder they are only 10 dollars.

Parking: If you have a commercial truck good luck getting close by and you might even get a ticket so it’s not worth my experience at this place

I miss this place! Glad my co worker invited me here! Parking is scarce so prepare to look around so far safe area. We went evening time & the line very popular! Quick service & they accept all major credit/debit cards along with cash! Fast service & the portions huge! Affordable as well! Shrimp tacos & their Carne asada quesadillas omg feeds 2 to 3 people! They also have homemade drinks! Love the fact they have Mexican Coke Colas yasss! Definitely coming back to try their other menus! They close by 10pm.

Parking: So during early times it's a busy area & you have to pay for street parking unless the local garage parking is full, then you have to explore around to find parking. Which is the downside of grand Ave. By 6pm I believe it's free but its first come first serve which is fair. But once you find a spot walk a little it's worth it because it's close to the main street for other restaurants!
