I’d do much for one more burrito from the old school La Costeña. They were so good.

La Bamba had the best meat; just a plain pollo burrito was a thing of glory, and their carnitas was transcendent. But La Costeña was where it was at if you wanted a burrito with stuff in.

Was La Bamba the place that had the very very long burrito?

That's La Costeña. Their "super burrito" was very long indeed, compared to other taquerias where "super burrito" is typically the same length but with guac. As I recall, they had a mockup super burrito mounted on the wall along with the regular and small sizes.

They also have a photo of their "world's longest burrito" record in the store, and on their website:
