Taquerias
El Farolito "Small, smoky and congested", El Farolito at 24th on Mission seems busy all day, everyday. Want to know why? They grill their tortillas in butter before making tacos and burritos, making this taqueria a Mission District favorite! Also, this place stays open until 4 a.m. on weekends (Friday and Saturday nights)-- which brings a post-bar line that often snakes out the front door and into the street.
Hours:
9 a.m. - 3 a.m. Sun. to Thu 9 a.m. - 4 a.m. Fri. - Sat.

Taqueria El Toro
El Toro occupies a serene corner at Valencia and 17th. Offering tacos and burritos in four kinds of tortillas with three kinds of beans, ten different meat fillings and four different salsas, it's a good place to start if you're new to the Mission. The menu is similar to the menu found at El Toro's sister taqueria on 16th Street, Pancho Villa.

Pancho Villa
Just half a block from the 16th Street BART station in one direction, but only a block from the Roxie in the other. This cavernous space keeps the eternal line moving, so you know it's fresh. The local artist wall is a nice touch. Recommended Dishes: Burritos come with a choice of ten different fillings including beef tongue and some vegetarian offerings (even tofu). Grilled prawns are a popular favorite. The food is fresh, fast and filling.
Hours:
Daily: 10 a.m. to midnight

Recommended Dishes: Tacos, burritos plus pineapple, pesto, sauteed mushrooms and cactus fillings.
Hours:
11 a.m. to 11 p.m., Mon. - Sat. Noon to 10 p.m. Sun.
