Fun Facts

La Taqueria opened its doors in 1973 and has been a staple in the Mission District ever since!

Their tacos were crowned 'America's Best Burrito' by FiveThirtyEight in 2014, even though they're technically tacos!

Unlike most taquerias, La Taqueria skips the rice, focusing on meat, beans, and fresh toppings for a unique taste.

While not officially on the menu, you can ask for a 'Dorado Style' taco, which is grilled to crispy perfection!

Despite its popularity, La Taqueria keeps it old-school by only accepting cash payments, so come prepared!

Their Super Burrito is a fan favorite, packed with meat, beans, cheese, sour cream, and avocado!

The vibrant mural outside depicts the rich cultural history of the Mission District, adding to the eatery's charm.
