Love their pastor tacos and recently a friend had a burrito that exceeded expectations -- in size alone. Get the Mexican style guac.

Probably a good bet since most of their other stuff (sopes, guac) is so good. Another of my taco sure-bets is <B>La Parada</B> on east New York. I particularly like their birria (goat) tacos - kinda like moist kinda gamey (in a good way) pot roast. One more taco rec is <B>Taqueria Don Victor's</B> (assuming their English Ave store is essentially the same as the former East St location); but really just for their Mole Tacos - chicken with little fruity (pineapple?) bits in a mole negro.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10704477.post-62538489253451327372007-08-27T16:57:00.000-04:002007-08-27T16:57:00.000-04:00I loved El Sol's burritos as well!!

They have a location at 71st (ish) and Michigan, but they just opened another location close to me at 96th and Allisonville. Their burritos remind me of El Sol and they have a salsa bar to boot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10704477.post-5022192827329041012007-08-27T16:10:00.000-04:002007-08-27T16:10:00.000-04:00I wish I could recommend a burrito place, but I do...I wish I could recommend a burrito place, but I don't know any good ones.

But I still haven't found a burrito anywhere as good as El Sol - just slow-cooked pulled/shredded meat and quality refried beans in a flour tortilla - no rice or other blasphemous fillers.
