Gordo Taqueria's Super Burrito is a Bay Area staple — packed with your choice of seasoned protein, rice, beans, pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream, wrapped in a steamed flour tortilla and ready in minutes.
Gordo Taqueria has been serving the San Francisco Bay Area since 1977, and the Super Burrito is the menu item that keeps people coming back decade after decade. It's not complicated — it doesn't need to be. A generous flour tortilla, steamed and folded around your choice of protein, rice, beans, pico de gallo, and finished with guacamole and sour cream. That's the formula. It works.
Every Super Burrito starts with a base of rice and your choice of beans — pinto, black, or refried — plus pico de gallo. Then you pick your protein:
Guacamole and sour cream are available add-ons (charged separately), and spinach tortilla is an option if you want a twist on the classic flour wrap.
One thing regulars notice: the tortilla is steamed with the cheese until it's perfectly melted before everything gets folded in. It's a small detail that makes a big difference in texture and flavor. No shortcuts, no assembly line of cold ingredients. Just fast, consistent counter-service the way Gordo's has always done it.
Whether you've been eating here since the '80s or you're walking in for the first time, the Super Burrito is the same reliable meal it's always been. As one longtime customer put it: "I used to go to this place in the 80s and also in the 90s... glad to report it was just as good [in] 2025."
A quick rundown of what to expect when you order a Gordo Super Burrito — no surprises, no fluff.
Pick up at College Ave (Berkeley), Solano Ave (Albany), Clement St, 9th Ave, or Geary Blvd in San Francisco. Each location does counter-service pickup with limited seating on-site.
Skip the line by ordering ahead at gordotaqueria.order.tryperdiem.com for both pickup and delivery. Walk-ins always welcome — just expect a line at peak mealtimes.
Chicken comes grilled or boiled — both confirmed on the menu. Carnitas, Carne Asada, Chile Verde, All Meat, and Veggie are all available. Pick what fits your mood.
Standard flour tortilla or spinach tortilla — both documented options. The tortilla is steamed with cheese before folding, which is the move.
You get to pick: pinto, black, or refried beans. All three are confirmed options on the menu, so don't just default — choose what you actually want.
Feeding more than just yourself? Gordo's is a go-to for group orders across the Bay Area. For bigger gatherings, check out "The Berkeley guide to group orders and event catering" for tips on making Gordo's work for your event.
“Real words from real customers — some of whom have been ordering here for 40-plus years.”
