Triumph for San Francisco's own La Taqueria in 538's rigorous nationwide burrito challenge! I can testify that these folks do indeed make a fine burrito.

Ugh, when I lived in San Francisco, I concluded that the burritos were pretty awful when compared to burritos from the south, particularly San Diego - as far as 'American' style burritos go. Granted, this isn't the typical SF burrito, but my heart sinks each time I hear anyone rave about any burrito from the mission of the rest of SF.

Before anyone gets combative, yes, I also must admit that the basis for comparison isn't equal, because they're of different styles.

Not really fair to compare San Diego to SF though honestly, it's about as lopsided as a startup scene comparison would be.

Love the user name.

SD native here. The burritos start to suck going north as soon as LA. And to think most of the country's idea of a burrito is Chipotle. shudder
