El Gran Amigo 2 — Restaurant in Pacifica

Incorrect order twice in a 15 min window. I ordered a chicken super burrito, which on the menu inside costs over $14 and clearly states the super has the same things as the regular (meat, beans, rice) but comes cheese, sour cream and guacamole.

When we got home I was disappointed to learn my burrito was only- beans, rice & lettuce. We called up and shared we ordered a super chicken burrito (gave the order #) and they said to come back and they will have the correct burrito ready.

Well our bad for not checking that burrito in store (guess that’s what you need to do here). Got home to find they made a regular chicken burrito- no guacamole, cheese etc.

But the rest of it was pretty good. I am happy to report that they don't douse everything in salt. I wouldn't hesitate to order from here again!!!

I wish the chicken was in Long strips instead a little tiny cubes in the three plate enchilada. I used to do my laundry next to this place and I'm not sure it's someplace that I would like to eat in. I could use a little updating especially in...

We went there on Oct. 15, 2023 (our first time). It's funny . . . our initial plan was to get lunch at Taco Bell which is only a 5-minute walk from El Gran Amigo. The only reason we skipped Taco Bell was because it was too crowded. We found El Gran Amigo purely by accident. We ordered a "chile relleno plate" and a "chile verde super quesadilla." Both items were decent. I was sort of expecting larger portion sizes, but, oh well. I thought the pork for my "chile verde" could have been more tender; the flavor was decent (not great). I DID appreciate the "cheesiness" of my quesadilla. The service was "nothing to write home about." It was...
