I'm just going to admit this outright: I only come here for the super nachos. I really like that I get to decide what I want and how I want it--always with grilled chicken and extra cheese. I think I once had a burrito here, and it was good, but it's all about the nachos.
(CASH ONLY) If you come to eat here make sure you have CASH!! Food was good, service was great but I forgot cash. Isn't that something they have their own ATM in the restaurant. I wasn't about to have my bank charge me and get a fee for using there's as well. This generous woman behind me heard I don't have cash and paid for my burrito and I couldn't thank her enough. Good people in SF THANK YOU TO YOU IF YOU READ THIS!! MUCH LOVE
Perfect place to grab some grub quick. Burritos are hearty. Got the nachos today. Which are huge and filling. Miss having this a few blocks from us. But great for hitting up every time we're back in SF.
First off, don't pay attention to the neg reviews. You can't make some people happy no matter what you do. It doesn't matter what I order from these guys it's always perfect. Never have I been disappointed. Brothers run the place. Awesome place to grab a bit to eat. Don't sleep on it.
Pros.
1. The best burrito I've ever tried in California so far.
2. Reasonable price
3. Cozy
Cons.
1. The tables might not be clean.
I absolutely adore Chinos. Best Mexican food in SF in my opinion. Chinos saves my life when I’m starving, with their timeless and delicious plates. I eat there multiple times a week. Cash only, so you know its legit.
💲First off, this place is CASH ONLY💲If you’re like me, this is normally a pain, but because of so many positive reviews, we made the trip to an ATM. 🌯This was our first visit to Chinos Taqueria and WOW! 🤩 we were ALL so impressed with the flavor and quality of each item!! 🌮 The service was fast and friendly. Each item was prepared fresh and customized to our liking, with a nice variety of choices. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Absolutely one of our best meals while visiting SF this time around.

I have been an avid Cal Mex food fan for a long time and first got to eat homemade when I was a toddler. Grew up in CA and definitely know Mexican food. I have tried it all and tried it everywhere but this is by far the best Cal Mex burrito I have ever had, and I say that having tried it dozens of times here at Chino’s over many decades. If you don’t like their burrito then it can only be because you don’t know Mex food. In a world where Mexican food is starting to be more about the decorations and the margaritas and you can even get disappointed in San Diego with super bland products with no blending of flavors, these folks are still keeping the faith!
Low price for a fantastic burrito that is the size of a mule’s leg and you want to stop eating because you are full but you can’t because it is that damned good.
Authentic taqueria vibe with the classic expert wrist flip when dolling the guac etc. Their skill will make you cry if you ever have to go to a chain burrito place where some kid is moving like molasses and seems like he never saw a tortilla before.
I once told these folks that when I die, I want to be buried under their tortilla steam tray. They are pretty chill but that one got a smile.
Thanks Chino’s for making my time in this Earth a little bit better!
Loved this place! My daughter and I went to tour San Francisco state university this past weekend and we wanted Mexican food and we couldn't find a place! But we found this place and we met the owners they were very friendly and there food reminded me as if I was at home having my mom's Mexican burrito!
What could make you happier on a dull day but a hand-wrapped super burrito from the incredibly cheery Francisco?!?!
