El Faro Restaurant in the Financial District is a hidden gem for anyone craving authentic Mexican comfort food! 🌮

I recently indulged in their baby burrito, and it took me right back to the Mission taquerias of the '90s - perfectly sized for a light meal! The accompanying Mexican red rice was just like my tía used to make, and the chile verde was wonderfully flavorful with tender chunks of meat.

Don’t skip the salsa; while it’s milder, it’s absolutely delicious and I found myself wanting more! 🍅

With prices that won't break the bank, El Faro is a fantastic choice over typical office takeout. I can’t wait to go back
