Counter-serve Mexican joint with murals, known for burritos
"Like any good SF taqueria, you can build your burrito at Taqueria Guadalajara like a custom car with all the parts you want—we always go for the carne asada or shrimp, which get gloriously saucy after intermingling with the guacamole and sour cream add-ons. The super burrito holds its own against El Farolito’s across the street in both size and taste. With just a few tables and nothing else, you’ll be able to get up and personal with your burrito distraction-free." - julia chen 1, patrick wong, lani conway
"Fast service, a no-nonsense vibe, and balanced burritos with flavorful meats are reasons enough to head to Taqueria Guadalajara. The Excelsior spot (located across the street from an El Farolito outpost) holds its own with its big burritos. They have several styles here (vegetarian, shrimp, wet, and ranchero with onions, cilantro, and special salsa), plus a wide list of proteins, including lengua, cabeza, and tripas. The salsas and rice unfortunately don't add a whole lot to the experience. Still, we like ordering the super carne asada, though it’s just never going to match up to that of La Taqueria.

"Crispy carnitas make Taqueria Guadalajara the burrito pride and joy of the Excelsior, but another fine Taqueria Guadalajara outpost can be found on 24th Street. This location follows the original, contending for customers with an El Farolito location across the street (as it also does in the Excelsior, where El Farolito operates, too)." - Lauren Saria
