EL BURRITO

Manuel’s El Burrito, Restaurant and Cantina. Est. 1976. Our first restaurant was established in 1976 when Manuel Gallegos Sr. and brother-in-law George Garcia had a great idea. Since there were no Mexican restaurants with real Mexican home cooking in the area (and we still remain the only one) they would start one. The name “El Burrito” came from the two of them sitting at the kitchen table. To them “El Burrito” sounded better than “El Taco”.
