El Castillito (Church) (San Francisco, CA)
Score: 8 / 10 Reviewed by: mariamargarita
Delicious burritos (& tacos & quesadillas) with one major flaw: they use lettuce in the super burritos! I grabbed my super veggie (hold the sour cream) and forgot to ask him to hold the lettuce and as I was eating my tube of grilled goodness, every single bite was crunchy, green water: lettuce. I picked a lot of it out, but it was completely overwhelming and the burrito could not be saved.
Despite that, this is the only place nearby to get a true, bona fide, just dirty enough Mission burrito experience. Grilled tortillas (makes the experience about 1million times better), wonderful, spicy, chicken, kick ass salsa bar (chips are mediocre) and reasonable pricing make this a great lunch or post Lucky 13 dinner spot. I used to get the carnitas but they are usually extremely fatty, so I would choose another meat. Veggie burritos are a lovely, not too cheesy, choice and absolutely sub avocado for guacamole, which is sadly extremely watery.
