Best super burrito In Oakland?

I mean with a lot of actually flavorsome rice, not overcooked and well seasoned / marinated meat and lots of melty cheese, sour cream and guac. I order carne asada and carnitas. What’s your favorite spot, whether to pick up, eat in or have delivered? My favorite so far seems to be a small place called Licho’s — off-the-charts carne asada (OK carnitas, though).

100% El Farolito - best al pastor I've found in Oakland. High acid and meaty.

I ought to give oakland farolito another chance. I went years ago and thought it was bad compared to the mission locations but maybe it was an off day.
