Every taquería possesses its own beguiling burrito charms, but some locations rise to the occasion with a bit more taste and class than their peers. One such triumphant purveyor of the bean and rice based, tortilla-wrapped, California original—the hallowed San Francisco burrito—is El Castillito. This Castro showstopper is a haven for vegetarian and vegan appetites, where fresh plant-based fixin’s abound. Those with more carnivorously-inclined palates won’t go hungry either, as it’s rumored that El Castillito’s Al Pastor entree packs perfect pig-meat heat.
