I've enjoyed their "Super Beef" burrito for decades! I moved to Texas almost three years ago and I still wait until I come back to visit to have a burrito! Yes, they have other good item on their menu too. Everything tastes homemade so I highlu recommend giving it a try!

Best burritos you'll ever have! Been going here since I was a kid, and after travelling up and down the bay area, no place compares to El Faro! Nothing beats freshly made, right in front of your face!

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants on Monument. Everything I've ordered has been delicious. Good prices too. It can get a bit busy around lunch time but usually is fairly fast.
