The Best Burrito in San Francisco's Mission District

Here's how the neighborhood voted: https://spreadsheets.goog...chrome=false&gid=1 I've tried most of these and lately Cancun is my regular spot. I'm a little surprised El Farolito was the top choice but I don't disagree. I've always liked theirs, I just didn't know so many other people did also. In the accompanying article, the Mission Local wades into the ever-raging controversy over who invented these stomach bombs: Mission burritos are renown for their size and amount of ingredients, and have even inspired an entire style that is replicated by national chains like Chipotle. The origin of the Mission-style burrito is as nebulous as the origin of the burrito itself. Some claim that El Faro served the first “super burrito” in 1961. Others say it only first appeared in 1961 at La Cumbre. Regardless who made the first one, it’s clear that the burrito has had a long and hefty history in the Mission.

Cancun is my favorite burrito, but I always really like the tacos over at La Taqueria better. Perfect beans. Dang, now I'm hungry.

I'm glad to see Pancho Villa on the list. That was where I went when I visited San Francisco back in 2007. That was one of the first times I started using yelp.com to look for suggestions when I travel and it paid off big time. I've been using yelp.com as well as urbanspoon.com ever since.
