PSA: Chips are no longer free. They now charge $2.50 for house chips + green salsa. Also, there is a 4% service fee added to your check by default, which is included in the "suggested tip" subtotal. Neither is disclosed on the menu, and my server failed to mention them, too; be forewarned. We had a brief scuffle on the chips. They actually charged me $5, since I asked for extra salsa and a second basket of chips, thinking they were free...they later refunded me the $5, after I complained. In practice, I have no issue paying for chips, so long as that is disclosed up front. You need to put this on the menu and you should not assume people know in advance. Bad business practice here needs to be called out. Chip debacle aside, this time around I tried the special "Fiesta Fajitas" for the main event, and these were excellent. Specifically, the portion size is huge (enough for two, or one hungry lad). They are served with four warm, homemade tortillas (these stole the show!), and a giant, heaping plate of accompaniments, consisting of guacamole, refried beans, tomato salsa, sour cream, and rice. The fajitas themselves come with tons of onions & peppers, which were caramelized to perfection without getting too soggy. There are three proteins: steak, chicken, and shrimp. All had a nice char and were seasoned well. I do wish the shrimp came peeled, but that is a nitpick. Having previously tried their burritos & tacos, I can say that the fajitas are the dish to get. It's a great value at $21.50. Do note that after tax, tip, & surcharge, it will set you back closer to $30. However, given the tremendous portion size, I still think it's a great deal, and I will return specifically for this dish.

I grew up in San diego so im always looking for a good California burrito, which i have not found yet. Thought it was a pretty good california burrito and carne asada fries, maybe the best one Ive had so far in SF. But the search continues

Huge portions at reasonable prices. I got a super burrito and it was massive. There was no wait on a weekday evening, the restaurant had groups of various sizes dining inside.

This place has the most underrated burritos in the mission and I would even dare say it has the best burritos in the mission. After trying a flat top burrito here I pretty much stopped eating burritos anywhere else (except taco bell on occasion)

I seriously can't believe I haven't found this place sooner! Quick and friendly service, hot and fresh food at reasonable prices, what more can you ask for. Got their grilled burrito was Asada and added sour cream and it was hot and cripsy and didn't have any fatty meat parts. It was worth every penny. And with prices now, totally worth it for less than $13 without tax and tip. Get the added salsa and chips for under $3. It's a avocado green salsa with a small side of chips. Very flavorful and will work great on your burrito. My friend ordered the chicken burrito and loved it. Now for the meh part. The quesabirria was meh. Birria was chewy and for me needed tp be more tender with more time marinating. It was okay, but we wouldn't order it again. With your Yelp check in you get a free agua fresca!

This is a 3.5 star review. I came in a little on the late side on a Tuesday night. I was expecting more, however those tacos were great. Ambiance and service was a bit lacking. No one came to check on us, we needed more salsa, but wasn't able to order, etc... The homemade tortillas are delicious. The tacos are huge and were good. 2 was plenty. The shrimp one was really good, and the vampiro was great (and honestly a meal in itself). It had true cuts of steak, not that pounded out, cut up scraps. So kudos to that. What took this meal to a less than 4 star review: The guac and chips were sad. The guac was a bit watery and not flavorfully fresh. The chips were stale. As mentioned, the service was fine, but not really there. Overall, high expectations from the reviews, and I'm sure a great spot if you doing takeout or doing a super casual eat. I was looking more for some ambiance and good eats, and that wasn't quite what I got.

A hidden gem! Tip is to go to their back patio (you have to walk past the kitchen) -- it's pretty spacious and so cute at night. Great for bigger parties. Chuy's has delicious tacos and decent portion sizes, my favorites were the shrimp and volcano tacos. Highly recommend their agua frescas as well; I've tried their mango and strawberry -- both are good!
