This week, Dining on a Dime host Lucas Peterson continues this season of culinary exploration of San Francisco with the Mission-style burrito. It’s not what you might think, though: What La Taqueria (voted best burrito in the country by FiveThirtyEight) does is, rather, a classic riff on an the Mission-style burrito. Owner Miguel Jara dispenses with the overstuffed-with-rice classic in favor of a pared-down version: meat, pinto beans, avocado, and salsa. The restaurant also specializes in tacos and quesadillas, and has incredible homemade hot sauces.
Eater is the one-stop-shop for food and restaurant obsessives across the country. With features, explainers, animations, recipes, and more - it’s the most indulgent food content around. So get hungry.

Born in NYC, raised in AZ, lived in N. County SD for the past 4 years. Between LA, SF, and SD, If we are talking taco shops(a term inclusive of burritos), It’s not even close. SD is the best. I went to this spot in SF last year. yes it’s very good, But SD has 5 of these every 2 blinks as you drive along, and for far less. I’ve heard there are far better burritos in SF than this place, so I’ll have to do more research. Props to Lucas.

Grew up in Sonora Mexico. Arguably the birthplace of the burrito. Been in Cal for 15 years now and for the life of me I cannot understand rice in a burrito. This is THE first time I see a real burrito around here. Respect. Also..... most places i go to give you the tortilla cold.... or even raw.... (DO NOT GO TO WAHOO TACOS tortilla there is not even cooked i do not understand their star rating).... Tortilla is always always always cooked, and most definitely a bit grilled. So yea Double respect. Sonora Town in LA is a competing place BTW.....

IDK why but all of the times i've visited SD, i've been completely underwhelmed. Throwing fries in a burrito or using fries in place of chips is ok but not a game changer. Also, rice belongs in a burrito.

I'm from LA, lived in San Francisco, Castro district, for a couple years, and I won't argue. SF has better SF style burritos. That said, the quality and quantity of LA taquerias and other types of Mexican restaurants means that LA wins as far as Mexican food in general goes. LA probably has the biggest selection of Mexican food outside Mexico city. San Francisco has SF style burritos and some good taquerias. LA has basically anything you could want from Mexico. Mexicans from LA or that have lived in LA, please give examples of Mexican food that you craved but couldn't find in LA

I used to go there all the time in the late 70's through mid 80's. Born and raised in SF. This video might be what they are now, but not back then. They look half the size. Mine always came with rice and beans - maybe I ordered it that way. The tortilla steamers were different. Like many other mission style burrito places in SF. The key is to water down the sour cream and guacamole, add ingredients, wrap in foil then put it back in the steamer and "pump it" (that's the way they used to steam them) so all the flavors blended together into the tortilla. It became very popular back then. Not my favorite though. Just convenient. SF does have better burritos than L.A. where I've been living for 30 years but I'll have to try the SD burritos since others recommend them. But a burritio need to be steamed or its not Mission Style.

As a San Diegan, I appreciate how this place doesn't use rice as a filler. Looks good- especially the carne asada. Burritos should just be meat, salsa and/or onions + cilantro, and guacamole tho (with the exception of San Diego's "California burrito" which is carne asada + fries + cheese).

I don't really get excited by SF burritos. I'm from LA. But that said, I always order bean and cheese burritos with salsa verde. I like it super simple...and as long as the beans are made with lard and the salsa is picosa...I'm happy.

It's a good burrito, but I've had better in LA. The best burrito I've had was in Vallarta Express in San Diego. You have to get a queso burrito with asada or carnitas.

In Arizona, when you order a carne asada burrito, you get a carne asada filled burrito. No beans or rice. Much better than Cali style.

Mixed feelings about the no rice. 1. I don't like burritos too starchy with the flour tortilla + rice + beans so in that way I would prefer no rice but the replacement is more beans. It seems better to get an all meat burrito with guac/sour cream/pico de gallo. Heck, I'd even prefer hash browns/eggs in there than beans and make it a breakfast burrito. I'm starting to really hate beans. 2. You said the firefighters need the carbs to do hard labor but wouldn't rice help in that area?

1) Yes, La Taqueria does add more beans, but they also add more meat. So it's win/win. 2) The rice would certainly help, most mission burritos are made with them. Lucas was just talking about the large burrito phenomena and the fun story of how large diameter tortillas may have been conceptualized.

To me San Diego has burritos on lock, having never been to this place. La has tacos though, which I prefer, because you can eat several kinds and not be stuffed like a burrito. Lucas. Go to Tire Shop Tacos in LA!!
