El Faro
By Burrito Eater Feb 02, 2007
The newest El Faro in town (ca. 2005) features boomin’ lunchtime business, tri-level dining, and a small sign near the register that warns, “Shoes and shirt required; pets not allowed.” The burrito menu includes a sans-tortilla option, as well as one called “Baby No Meat” that, when ordered, may cause blushing or raised eyebrows among those around you. Expect to overhear the words “client services,” and possibly even “strategic initiatives,” on an adjacent customer’s cell phone conversation as you wait in the Space Mountain-like line, and remember to keep your shirt on and your schnauzer leashed outside – otherwise, no tortilla-less “burrito bowl” for you. Enter from either Kearny or tony parallel alley Belden. Closed evenings and Sundays. Breakfast available (until noon!), as well as both cheesesteak tortas and burritos that taste like cheesesteaks. Credit cards accepted. FULL REVIEW

Lunch at El Faro
By See Us Eat Jan 22, 2007
Burrito Bowl $6.With extra carnitas, this bowl wasn't bad. The salsas were fresh, although the guacamole was less than stellar, far too runny. FULL REVIEW

El Faro
By Burritophile Aug 09, 2005
El Faro is a legendary place; many reliable sources contend that the original El Faro in the mission was the place where the cylindrical god was first put together in a form resembling the burritos we know and love today. Eating at El Faro was kind of like being a film noir fiend and getting to actually meet Dashiell Hammett. FULL REVIEW

El Faro
By Burrito Eater Aug 02, 2005
The birthplace of the San Francisco super burrito (9/26/61, according to a reliable source). So yes, El Faro’s been cranking out big fat slabs longer than Bob Dylan’s been making records. Sidewalk dining available when the weather’s right. Breakfast available. FULL REVIEW

El Faro
By Burrito Eater Mar 31, 2005
Often overlooked on the Downtown taqueriascape, this roomy El Faro is a capable reproduction of the original on Folsom and 20th St. The ladies behind the counter can come off a bit surly sometimes, though. Ever notice the AstroTurf in their front window? Breakfast available all day long. Closed evenings and weekends (and during fall and winter, on Saturdays). FULL REVIEW
