"Tacos El Patrón in the Mission makes massive birria tacos that are overflowing with delicious beef. They’re also extra cheesy (because, balance), and taste even better when you dip them in the rich consomé. The best part? Tacos El Patrón has two Bay Area locations where you can get your birria taco fix—the other is in the East Bay’s Pleasant Hill. " - julia chen 1, lani conway
