Quesada Burritos & Tacos — Restaurant in Mission

Quesada is awesome for the following reasons:

I love burritos, but I don't like surprises. It's nice to know exactly what I'm eating, and have the control to change it however I want.

The service is excellent. There are 3 women in particular who are so friendly, and I always make sure I give them a salute on my way in. They ask me how I'm doing, I ask them how they're doing, it's just a joy. They don't even get the tips, despite the machine always prompting you, they're just nice people. They work hard too. It gets really busy in there sometimes, but they never slow down, or stop smiling.

It's relatively cheap. Not that anything is truly cheap these days, but compared to some other places, and considering how much you're getting, it's pretty affordable.

I love music, it's my life, and I have to say, the playlist they've got running in there is bonkers. It's nothing challenging or obscure, it's just all over the place. There's some Mexican stuff, there's pop, there's rap, there's older music, they'll just play absolutely anything in there, and I can't help but laugh when the contrast from a song to the next is sometimes so extreme.

I recently got a job working for an electrical company, and so I've got a fresh, stickerless hard hat. Today at Quesada I noticed there was a sticker on the glass up front that read "CERTIFIED BURRITO EATER" which I thought was pretty funny, and I knew I needed to have it. I asked the employee if I could have a sticker for myself, and she handed me a whole sheet of them. She asked that I leave this review, which I was more than happy to do.

Also, because I simply couldn't leave it out, her name was...

I ordered 3 tacos at 8:47pm thru skipthedishes. The restaurant closed at 9pm and my order arrived soggy at 9:19pm. Not happy with the order. Why would the restaurant accept a online order and get a order ready for pick up at 919pm when they close at 9pm. Clearly the tacos where made pre9pm and sent out at 919pm. Skip the dishes refunded 50% of the order value for bringing soggy tacos. Good job!

Update Oct 20- message received from the owner. Thanks for the quick reply. I paid skip $21 to deliver and they refunded $6.72 only... this is not a good experience. I tried calling your store at 9pm but no answer. And there sloppy order was delivered at 919pm. Did your staff make the tacos at 915pm or were they made before 9pm when there shift was done. In future maybe dont accept orders at 847pm if you cannot get them picked up and delivered on time. I am not happy with the $6.72 refund. The food went in the garbage. Fyi...you are mis informed skip the dishes refused to refund the order. They refunded approx 30%. $6.72....

We just tried Quesada again for a second time, after our lacklustre first experience there. This time, we ordered through Skip on a BOGO burrito bowl promo.

We reaaaally want to love Quesada as we love Mexican food, but just can’t. The food is bland, the portions are small in comparison to Chipotle or Mucho Burrito. We both ordered chicken burrito bowls and there was so little chicken we had to literally pick through to find it. The Mexican slaw has no seasoning that we could find. The only rice option is brown rice that in fact isn’t brown and is undercooked. The only bean option is black or refried and the black beans were chewy. It doesn’t seem fresh. The chips are similar (or actually?) Tostitos and the white queso dip doesn’t even taste like cheese. Seems like it could actually be Tostitos white queso dip. For nearly $10 for a medium chips and dip I would expect more.

With Mucho Burrito, Bar Burrito, Coronas and honestly Tim’s and McD’s stepping up their wrap game, I don’t think we’ll ever have...
