My Favorite Place in San Francisco for Burritos

Do you like burritos? Are you looking for a new place to try?




Right now my favorite place for burritos in San Francisco is Brisas de Acapulco.
 This restaurant has kept their burritos consistently good for the past 5 years or more.  They are a good size, they are made to order (some places just scoop up previously cooked meat), and they use fresh avocado (instead of a watered down concoction of avocado and sauce).It is also nice because you get chips and salsa as you sit down at a table, and you can ask for more if your done with it.  They also have this awesome coffee. It tastes like it has a hint of pecan, or almond. 

Other good dishes:



 Camarones Al Mojo De Ajo which are prawns cooked in butter and come with rice, beans.

Pupusas are always fun to order here because they are so cheap!!  Around $2 each, and they come with salsa and “curtido”, which is shredded cabbage and tastes slightly sour with a hint of oregano (i love it).

Sopa Siete Mares.  It is a seafood soup of: potatoes, celery, clams, crab, catfish, prawns, octopus and other things.  It is served with freshly made tortillas.  The idea is that it has 7 different seafood ingredients. But if you want to keep clean, this is not the item to order.  You have to peel the prawns, and crack the crab. 

They don’t have a parking lot. There is a parking lot next door, some people park there, but I would not risk it.  So you have to find metered parking.  If you can’t find metered parking in front of the restaurant, I suggest you look for a spot on Cesar Chavez St.


Brisas de Acapulco is on 3137 Mission St (at Cesar Chavez St.), San Francisco.
You can also order your food ahead of time for pick-up. (415) 826-1496
