About

La Taqueria is the Mission District institution where San Franciscans line up for burritos done their own way: no rice, just well-seasoned beans, tender carne asada, and creamy guac wrapped in an exceptional thick flour tortilla. Order it dorado style and they'll grill it crispy on the outside while keeping it soft within. It's messy, the wait can be long, but regulars say nothing else compares.
