Master Critic Review
Olivo’s

Small, family-run spot with a Latin American-leaning menu where burritos come packed and fast. It’s a low-key option for a quick, filling wrap near Larkin.
Must-Try Dishes:
Super Burrito (carne asada), Wet Burrito, Chicken Burrito

Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only, metered on Larkin and nearby side streets. Can be tough during peak evening hours.
Dress code: Casual—jeans, hoodies, and everyday wear are all fine.
Noise level: Low to moderate—mostly takeout traffic with some dine-in, so conversation is easy.

Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—bean, cheese, and veggie burrito options available.
Vegan options: Limited—customize by skipping cheese/sour cream; beans and rice are vegan-friendly.
Gluten-free options: No dedicated options; tortillas are flour-based, though some plates can be ordered without.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Not ideal—Olivo’s is more of a quick, casual counter spot than a sit-down date setting.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—reservations aren’t taken; tables are limited but turn over quickly.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes for older kids who like burritos; no special kids’ menu or high chairs, so best for a quick bite rather than a family outing.
Best For
Better for: Better for locals seeking a fast, affordable burrito without fuss.
Skip if: Skip if you want atmosphere, variety beyond burritos, or dietary accommodations like gluten-free wraps.
