    Breakfast burrito was great. Bacon was perfectly crisp, eggs were great, refried beans were excellent. They usually have good chicken burritos, worse than el faros in south san fran or 20th street in the city, but still very good. Last super burrito had no guac, they didn't bother to tell me, and it was mostly rice. Definitely a let down. Their tortas are worse than the other el faros as well, and molinos has better tortas a couple blocks down. I'm still going to give their super chicken burrito a shot, but another one as bad as the last will send me to molinos.

    One of the worst mexican places I ever been, food is bad service its worst and the place not good at all! I'm from San Francisco and there's other El faro or el farolito in San Francisco, I really though this one was going to be the same as the other ones in San Francisco but what a surprise it's the worst I been so far! Really hope the owner get to read this post and does something about it!
