I had the pleasure of trying El Castillito’s Burrito at their San Francisco location. The burrito was packed with flavor, featuring tender beef, crunchy vegetables, and creamy guacamole all wrapped in a warm flour tortilla. Each bite was a delight, with the perfect balance of spices and textures that left me craving more.

Rice and beans with chicken or beef is one of El Castillito’s signature dishes, and for good reason. The dish is simple yet satisfying, with fluffy rice and creamy beans complemented by the savory flavors of slow-cooked chicken or beef. I opted for the chicken version, which was cooked to perfection and added a welcome burst of protein to each bite.

Nacho lovers will rejoice at El Castillito’s Nacho platter, loaded with crispy tortilla chips smothered in melted cheese, salsa, and your choice of chicken or beef. I went for the spicy option, which added an extra kick to this indulgent treat. With a side of creamy sour cream to balance out the heat, these nachos are sure to become a new favorite.

A casual, fast-casual restaurant that serves Mexican-inspired food. The atmosphere is welcoming and vibrant, with colorful decorations and lively music playing in the background.
