"Taqueria San Bruno is a worthy pitstop located near the San Francisco Airport. The neon green taqueria is hard to miss, and though the building itself may be tiny, the burritos and tacos are quite the opposite: hefty and loaded. The burritos, which are packed with generous heaps of seasoned meat, rice, and beans, often draw big crowds of patrons who are eager to swarm the self-serve salsa bar. Protein options run the gamut, but some of the most beloved choices include grilled shrimp, blackened fish, carne asada, tripas, and spicy chorizo. Fruity agua frescas are a refreshing pairing to the meal." - Cathy Park
"If the Mission-style super burrito is San Francisco’s most iconic original food creation, then Taqueria San Bruno is the closest, most convenient spot where you can snag a truly stellar, and truly gigantic, version on the way either to or from the airport — with planes literally taking off above your head. It bears repeating: These super burritos are comically oversized and loaded with meats (as are the breakfast burritos for that matter, if you’ve got an early flight). The charred carne asada is probably the people’s choice, but the taqueria is also known for serving some of the area’s better fish and shrimp tacos." - Lauren Saria, Luke Tsai
