  I love the fact that El Faro has a drive-through. Convenience factor 5/5. The employees are very friendly, and food comes out fast.
  I ordered three asada tacos (no pico) and a shrimp fajita burrito.
  The tacos come with cheese (definitely don't like that) and lettuce. The meat is very very salty, and doesn't have much flavor other than salt.
  I wish it came with onions and cilantro, next time I'll ask if they just have that (if you know, drop a comment to me! I don't like tomato so pico is a no go for me).
  
  The shrimp burrito was OK, the tortilla needs more work - it's pretty "gummy". The shrimp are pretty big and cleaned out (de-veined) which is a huge plus!!!
  The tacos are fairly big, but I've had smaller street tacos that have a ton more flavor and toppings.
  I definitely would come back, it's convenient and fast, I would just like a little less salt!
  Will I come back? - Yes! I definitely want to come back to try the Chile Rellenos and some other dishes.
  I would like to see more fresh herbs and flavors and textures, less salt and cream!
  What's your favorite dish here?

  So this is the second, and the last time I order from here.
  Now I know that they are not all illiterate so I can't say why they keep getting all the orders incorrect. So I have to assume that they just don't give a crap that if a customer states "No Pico", that it could mean that the customer might be DEATHLY allergic to tomatoes and they will end up in the ICU.
  My coworker ordered a Quesadilla and got a burrito instead.
  MY food out the garbage because I don't want to end up in the hospital because of El Faro's constant INCOMPETEBNCE in putting their customer's life in danger.
  I will be contacting the department of health.

  Probably the worst Mexican food I've had :( I hate writing bad reviews, but this experience made me regret coming here.
  
  I ordered a Super Chicken Quesadilla. Disappointingly, there was no guacamole or sour cream. And they really skimped out on the cheese! The chicken was also pretty salty so I just didn't enjoy my "super" quesadilla at all. I basically paid $8.50 for the free chips and salsa because that's what I ended up finishing.
  
  The man who took my order over the drive-thru was also really rude and unwelcoming. Maybe it was just a bad night?
  
  I definitely won't be back again, unfortunately. The Taco Bell next door had more business and now I know why. Lol

  I like coming here for a quick fix when I'm craving Mexican food or if my boyfriend and I don't feel like driving to the city for a mission burrito. I've tried quite a good amount of items here and to be honest with you everything I have tried was good.
  
  Things I have tried:
  Carnitas super burrito, wet
  Chicken quesadillas
  Carne Asada fries
  Pupusas
  Super burrito with carne asada
  Super nachos and regular nachos
  
  My faves would have to be the wet super burrito with carnitas, chicken quesadillas, and their carne asada fries! The portions are huge.. my boyfriend and I always share the burrito. Everything is really filling as well, and on top of that they give u chips and salsa with your meal which I love. The ladies who work there usually give extra if you ask!
  
  So yeah everything is pretty solid here. Decent prices, quick service, and they have a drive thru!

  Delicious Mexican fast food.  I usually go through the drive through but today I went inside to order.  The food is great which is why I gave them 4 stars, the people need to smile more.
