Taqueria La Cumbre

Honestly the number one burrito place in the Bay Area as far as I'm concerned. I don't live in the city but I always love to go there whenever I can. I don't know exactly what's their secret I buy the same but of meet and cook it but it doesn't turn out the way it does at this wonderful gem of a restaurant !

Stopped by for lunch. Super dark interior, pretty grungy, but you're obviously not here for a super nice ambience. Service was also fairly slow for there not being that many customers.I got a super burrito with chicken. Definitely solid, but nothing stands out from any other burrito you can get in the Mission. A bit too carb heavy for me; wish there was less rice and more beans/meat. The sauces were also just decent. Green sauce solid per usual, but the orange and red were really strange. Orange tasted like melted cheese, and red was way too sweet.Overall, you pretty much know what you're getting, so come if you want a good solid fast burrito.

I really liked my burrito from here. I think salsa especially make this place. I didn't get a good photo but I got an al pastor and chicken burrito. the habanero salsa was super yummy !

We ordered the fish burrito (the super version) and it was AMAZING! Literally one of my favorite burritos in the city. The fish tasted excellent and all the flavors came together so well. The sauce to accompany the burrito was a perfect addition. You can also easily split it with 2 people because it is massive. 10/10

"Home of the Mission Burrito" so we had to check it out.AMBIANCE:Parking: Welcome to the City. Parking is limited but there's 15 minute parking if you're looking for a grab and go.Seating: Inside seating for maybe about 6 groups, 20 people. Vibes: You're in the Heart of San Fran so you're surrounded by a lot of eclectic culture from art and presentations of houses and restaurants. It's a grit and grind place so don't expect anything too flashy. The place itself is pretty neat. I dig the 80's lite rock music, very Frisco feeling. A spacious place filled with history from the art or previous articles written about this place. Great for a quick grab and go or if you just wanna casually sit and enjoy the history of The City.FOOD:Mission (Super) Burrito (Recommend)You have two choices of meats and we got the steak and al pastor. The meats were flavorful and savory. Mix that in with the guacamole, black beans, salsa, cheese, and lettuce, you're in for a fulfilling delight. It took me two sittings to finish.CUSTOMER SERVICE:Solid! Professional staff that was helpful with our order!TL; DR OVERALL:4 Stars. Good prices, selections, food, and just a solid experience. There are a lot of burrito places but it's unique to be at the "home" of the Mission Burrito. There's more dishes to explore here, so if you're in the area, do give this spot a try.TIPS:* Try their sun-dried tomato tortilla

The power of equality---Red Hot Chili Peppers harmony in my headI recently went to Taqueria La Cumbre with Marcelo. He is my friend for the past five years and a mentor who hails from Brazil. Marcelo lives near this Taqueria. The Taqueria that invented the Mission Burrito. Wow! Marcelo invited me for a burrito that apparently was named after him. No way. I couldn't believe it. Marcelo like me is a longtime vegan. Apparently the Marcelo burrito here comes with pinto beans, rice, and avacado with green sauce on the side. The Marcelo burrito is by default vegan which is awesome and comes with no chips which makes it more affordable. That's what he said and it is all true aka Satya. I think it was only $8 or so which is super affordable for San Francisco. Name eats for under $10 in San Francisco. Yamo, here, and ______. Fill in the blank. Hit me up for affordable plant strong eats when you get the 411.The only caveat is feedback and critique not to Marcelo yet to who made our burritos for Marcelo's burrito was slightly bigger than mine. I would suggest burritos being the same size yet perhaps since Marcelo has his own burrito named after him and even is on the printed receipt with Marcelo Burrito printed on it since his burrito is in the restaurant's system he should get a bigger burrito!Burrito slightly bigger or not. It hit the spot, filling, and tasty. It was just what I needed after a trip to Miami doing an intensive yoga retreat for two weeks and seeing my fam for another week in Cocoa Beach. Perfect introduction back to the Mission aka my hood. Thank you Marcelo. Thank you Taqueria La Cumbre for the solid default vegan Marcelo burrito.Tasty affordable eats in the little city by the Bay. I will be back like Arnold said!

This place is supposedly the home of the burrito which is what piqued my interest. I was happy to see that they had carnitas on the menu as well as some other options that you normally don't see in this type of Mexican food establishment. The choices of meats and even tortillas plus other options were plentiful which really gave a nice customization to what we were eating. The carnitas were moist and tasted as if it was actually slow cooked versus cooked quickly, like many restaurants do. I honestly kind of expected the burrito to be even bigger than it was as it was a standard size burrito which filled me up. They have three sauces, one of which was a creamy red, then a spicy red and a green avocado salsa. All three were good but the spicy red was by far my favorite.They did have some agua fresca's too as well as beer and bottled Mexican Coke which is the best choice with this kind of meal. If I lived in the area this would probably be a regular place for me.

Casual place where you order at the counter and they'll call your number. Food was ready within a few minutes after ordering which was great. Unfortunately I didn't think $7 for a super taco that had too much lettuce was worth it.

We ordered the steak burrito and the garlic prawn/steak burrito. The garlic prawn was the star of the show - nice seafood flavor and generous portion of shrimp that flavored the entire burrito. Normally, I'm all about the green salsa but the yellow salsa was very smokey (which we loved!). Fast service and decent prices!

Very disappointed that this place not really good food because I was here just two months ago the food was good so I came back with my family. I ordered a steak and shrimp plate it was really bend no favorite, my husband ordered chicken mole was awful taste as if brown sauce on top no tasted. My cousins from afar have cancitas and think is ok cuz we want to be polite but I know the food is not good enough and my hubby really disappointed and feel we make a mistake come here of all the Mexican food available in the Mission District WHy I pick this place?
