This is the epitome of a hidden gem. A little hole in the wall Mexican food eatery, with so much flavor and value. We got the cheese enchilada dinner plate, super nachos with carne asada, and street tacos with carne asada, and the cheese pupusas.
The food was QUALITY and portions were very generous. The nachos were loaded with steak, the tacos too. My enchilada plate came with 4 additional hot corn tortillas. Delightful.
The pupusas were the show stopper. So big and so fresh. I ripped the first one open and the cheese was so perfectly fresh and stringy. The slaw that comes with the pupuas 10/10. Perfect.
All of our meals came with a serving of chips and salsa.
It’s a humble place, but the best place I’ve been in San Francisco. I want to tell everyone to come here.

El Faro in South San Francisco is amazing! The home of the Original Super Burrito – ordered a Super Steak Burrito and it was packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. The staff provided outstanding customer service, and the restaurant was spotless and welcoming. Definitely a must-visit spot!

I’m glad they close late! Me & my friend were craving for pupusas! Unfortunately many closes by 7pm to 8pm! Thank goodness el faro closes by 10pm or so & they have a drive through! Quick service & affordable! Pupusas good enough to satisfied our cravings pork with beans & cheese! I wish they have more options for pupusas but these were good enough! They have many other menus I can’t wait to try the rest! I also has their quesadillas in the past super good! They also have home made drinks like Jamaica, Tamarindo, & horchata !!!! BTW they accept credit cards w/ 3.9 something charge but still affordable!

This is my favorite place that serves the best burritos ever made! Seasoned and delish! Seriously, I’ve been going to El Faros for years and I may be biased but I have yet to find a Mexican food place that serves burritos as good as El Faros! Nothing compares to El Faro’s burritos. I used to go 2-3 times a month until I moved 2 hrs away. I will forever be an El Faro’s regular.

The happy burrito is an abomination. Lettuce and tomatoes shouldn’t be in burritos. Why do they offer something so concretely gross on the menu it’s actually so weird. I also only came here for the promise of $5-11 burritos and I got charged $18 lol. I get there being an upcharge for shrimp but $6-7 upcharge is actual insanity. I also wasn’t asked for here or to go so I ate at a table out of a paper bag. I’m sooooo dissapointed.

Every time I fly into SFO, I stop at El Faro’s for a burrito before I head to my destination. Their burritos are delicious, generous size, and come with a side bag of chips to scoop out your burrito’s innards. I always look forward to their burritos. Top notch.

This is the second time in a row this place has gotten my order wrong and it’s not that complicated, super burrito with no beans. I received a burrito that was literally just rice and chicken, nothing else. I’m so angry! I love supporting small businesses but unfortunately I’m not coming back here again.

The no meat burrito is super filling and very well seasoned. It has tomato in it, which I love. It’s kind of hard to find a vegetarian burrito with fresh tomatoes. The drive through is also super fast. I’m very happy with my lunch today.

Best drive-thru in town. We love to stop here for late night eats after the airport. The burritos are massive and delicious!

I’ve gone to El Faro for years—I mess heavilyyyyy with their quesadillas lol—their super quesadillas with chicken or carne asada con pico de gallo? que ricooooooo. Idc what anyone says—one thing about me is I’m always gonna go back to El Faro. I’ve been eating it for close to 30 years, since I was a baby! And so has my 12 year old nephew. Baby bean and rice burritos for the babies, of course. Forgot to mention—the papusas are next level. Must dip in their signature salsa y curtido
