La Espiga De Oro — Restaurant in San Francisco

4.5 stars. Very solid but not epic IMO, shines in some areas and falls short in others. I had the grilled chicken super burrito. Great flavor, mixture, temperature, presentation, and fresh ingredients. They toast their burritos like Cancun so that earns it bonus points. Fresher avocado would have made it epic. My wife had a veggie burrito and it was quite good as well. Same area for improvement as my burrito. Salsa selection is limited to a super spicy roja salsa anda milder verde salsa. Service was friendly but a bit slow. It's definitely a bit run down in terms of decor but nothing more than your average taqueria. You're not really paying for ambience anyway. Highly recommended to try, I doubt anyone could be...

This place has some really great food, and super friendly staff.

I have been a few times for pupusas, they're delicious. I have tried their pupusas, their tamales, and their burritos. I would definitely recommend their pupusas: if you eat pork, get one with pork, if not, get one without (all of them are delicious).

For lunch 3 of us shared:

QUESO PUPUSA: served with salsa and pickled cabbage YUMMY. QUESO Y FRIJOLES PUPUSA: served with salsa and pickled cabbage YUMMY. SUPER CARNE ASADA BURRITO: Very good burrito (make sure you get super'd) CHIPS Y SALSA: You know... it's the measure of a place... and their chips and salsa are both AWESOME.

Another tip: you can buy chips, salsa, and tortillas (all...

Pan dulce never disappoints here. They got niño envuelto, conchas, empanadas, cuernitos, etc. All of them are really good.

Tried breakfast for the first time today but have been buying their pan dulce and tamales for a while now. Tamales are also good. They got Mexican and Salvadorean ones.

As for the food, I tried their chilaquiles and they were really good. The salsa was nos spicy so you need to ask them for a side of hot salsa. The tortilla chips are nice and crispy, not soggy. You can taste the freshness of the refried beans and the Mexican rice.

Their tacos were really good too. Don’t forget to get some chicharrón to go before you...
