    Cheese Only Quesadilla

    El Alambre #2 is an unassuming food truck in front of the Foods Co on 14th. There are two small tables with two seats each in front of the truck. One can also do their grocery shopping at the Foods Co and grab lunch from El Alambre. I highly recommend you try the quesabirria and consome combo. I truly believe it's the most tastiest quesabirria and consome in the state, if not, the country. The service is also fantastic. No complaints there. I will update my review with pictures when I inevitably get it again. Please do yourself a favor and give the quesabirria and consome a try when you can.

    My go to spot for a quick cheap tasty eat. I've been a long time regular for the last two years and the food always lives up. If you want a DANK quesadilla filling enough for a small family for $13 this is the PLACE. I usually get quesadilla or torta. birria des res is best, then al pastor, then carnitas. You can always ask for avocado in the quesadilla and ITS FREE. Always do good, place is amazing. Salsa is pretty good and they are always nice and friendly.

    I stopped by for a regular carne asada burrito. The rice, beans, and pico de gallo were all actually very delicious, and I would come back for a veggie burrito! The carne asada had a more chewy texture than I like.

    Finally a good spot to grab tacos. We ordered some regular tacos, birria tacos, mulitas, and quesadilla. Everything was amazing. I loved every item. I ordered through doordash and was still impressed. I would like to go in person and try their burrito!

    I doordashed a birria taco and the chicken quesadilla and both were SO good - the birria taco had such a flavorful sauce, and the perfect combination of crunch and chewiness. The quesadilla was packed with cheese, sour cream, pico de gallo, and well seasoned chicken. The portion size was also huge and enough that I had leftovers for a second meal!

    Hired them for our son's birthday party in the park.

    Look no further! Miguel's El Alambre is the perfect taco truck for events. Lots of great things that I can rave about with them. To begin with, the food is really yummy! We've had a few guests mentioned that their carnitas was the best they've ever tasted. The quesa birria was oh so tasty as well! As far as convenience, choosing them is the way to go. You can mix and match food items to customize the menu that suits your event. Response time with communications is also on point. Miguel was super easy to talk to and he made sure that we were happy with their services. Really content that we went with them. They made the food part of our event as seamless as it can be. Can't ask for more!

    Being a native Bay Area person, I always heard about the burrito wars in San Francisco's Mission…read moreDistrict. Over the years I've found myself drawn to the other contender in the Mission way more than El Farolito, so I decided it was time to head back to try this legendary burrito shop. Getting to this location is super simple as we took BART and got off at the 24th Street Mission BART station and from there it's a very short walk of less than a block to get to El Farolito. Walking into the shop one is just slapped in the face with the beautiful smells of the carne asada cooking on the grill right by the door-it's wonderful. It's a modest place that you can definitely tell was built many years ago,so no overly modern amenities-this place cares about the food, not the ambiance. We ended up going with a couple of super burritos of Carne Asada ($11.25) & a regular burrito of Al Pastor($10.25) & also added two tacos one with Al Pastor and one with Carne Asada($4.75) They had beers at $4.75-so we grabbed a couple of Modelos. First the tacos-they were just ok,the tacos were crunchy and I don't know kind of gave Taco Bell vibes. Burritos though-that's a whole different animal. The burrito was so well made from the chew of the tortilla to the seasoning of the carne asada to the perfect balance and mix of all the other ingredients.I judge a burrito harshly if the mix isn't right and you don't get every ingredient in every bite and the mix at El Farolito was flawless. The price point was pretty impressive as well. In closing, El Farolito has always been in the mix as one of the top burrito spots in the Mission, and I can say with confidence that it's in my Top 2 in San Francisco currently. It's an incredible burrito and a true "must-visit" spot when visiting San Francisco. P.S. Just a slight heads up when visiting , it's not the safest neighborhood in the world, so just keep your head up when visiting-this is a place one visits for the food experience not the ambiance.

    I called ahead to place my order because I saw the line was massive and figured calling in advance…read morewould save me some time. After waiting about 30 minutes, I assumed my order would be ready when I arrived. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. They don't actually prepare the order ahead of time you still have to wait in the long line, then pay and apparently have the order made afterward. Honestly, what is the point of calling ahead if you're still required to stand in the same line and wait? I understand that they may be busy, but the whole purpose of calling ahead should be to make the process quicker and more convenient. The food may be good, but the ordering process was frustrating and completely defeated the purpose of calling ahead. Two stars from me based on the experience.

    Hands down the best thing I ate in San Francisco! It was not only delicious but enough to fill me…read moreup for the entire day. I ordered the carnitas burrito and my husband ordered the carne asada one. We also asked the guys for a salsa picante and their house made one delivered! The ingredients were tasty, well seasoned and fresh. Service is quick, food and ambiance are no frills and cash only. I think about this burrito daily and am willing to travel across the country to get it again. Not to mention, but this is a Mission style burrito in the Mission! This is the only way to do it and I now totally understand the hype.

A few people were already in there eating, and we know this place is good, as a few others in our group and I have been here multiple times. The Taqueria is typical of any other, with bench-style chairs for folks to sit on, a water station, and workers cooking it up in the kitchen. I wasn't too hungry, so I grabbed a Super Lengua Taco, while my friends grabbed burritos, we ended up grabbing 3 complimentary chips and guac/salsa with our order and the food came out pretty quickly. When I saw my Taco I forgot how much they stuffed it and wow, two of these would've filled me up just like a taco; there was so much Lengua that it kept falling off after every bite. The flavors all came together and I scruffed down the whole thing after about 6+ bites! Definitely a place to come to if you're looking for a full meal, or something to snack on!
