Lesley KAugust 6, 2013A great place to come to if you wanna have fun & be loud. And do it while eating the incredible queso fundido. Oh and carry on thru dessert-anything that involves chocolate. They use the good stuff.
Jenna BlackMay 21, 2014Great environment! The guacamole is delicious. I had the chicken tacos and they were great. The chocolate cake for dessert is pretty amazing! Service was a little slow, but I will visit again.
Amy MatsunoMay 30, 2013Be adventurous. Get the goat tacos and the duck tacos - they are incredibly flavorful. Also, the desserts here are top notch. The bread pudding or churros that you dip in warm mexican hot chocolate :)
Jon MarcelApril 18, 2015Duck tacos are fantastic as is the ceviche. Environment is noisy but lots of fun. Nice balance of trendy and comfortable. Definitely recommend!
Kelsey KotzebueSeptember 28, 2016Very loud spot but makes for a fun evening. Any of the tacos are delicious and the Jicama Y Fruta was pleasantly filling and had tons of flavor.
Erik KriessmannJune 2, 2016Tacos are bomb. Margs are awesome. Some of the larger plates are good too. Not huge portions but great flavor. Fun date spot.
Chris SmithDecember 28, 2013Carnitas tacos = excellent; carne asada = very good; camarones al pastor = good but under seasoned. House made habanero sauce great on the carnitas!!!
Zeenat KathiyaNovember 11, 2012Awesome margaritas! Had the carne asada tacos and slow cooked chicken enchiladas which were both amazing. Guac here was not impressive though, try the ceviche verde!!
Ben CoffeeOctober 18, 2014This is a really cute spot with great food and excellent margaritas. Pictured here is chips and guacamole
SerenaFebruary 22, 2012try to sit towards the back (where it's quieter). everything i've sampled off the menu was great, but the jicama salad is particular is a must order.
Elizabeth Ferrall-NungeMarch 20, 2013Get the duck tacos (Pato a la placha), rancherias enchiladas, followed by the flourless budin for dessert. Skip the churros.
Michelin Travel & LifestyleAugust 16, 2011Great for those grasping at youth and not afraid of a little noise. They serve up dressy Mexican fare and over 60 tequilas and mescals. - Inspector
Anthony RalloSeptember 23, 2011Great place for three people. The plates typically come out with 3 items. Carnitas are heavenly bits of juicy and lightly crisped pleasure.
JaredOctober 27, 2014The Carne Asada tacos were some of the best tacos I've ever had. Glorious, glorious tacos.
Dawn DeVirgilioDecember 16, 2011Don't bother looking at the menu - get the sea scallop tacos and you'll thank me later! Also - make sure to ask for chips & salsa!
PurplelabnycJuly 27, 2010Best chilaquiles you will find in the bay area! Also, the Margaritas are awesome and they have one of the most extensive list of Tequilas we’ve seen!
Jonathan EatherlyFebruary 11, 2015Carnitas were very good but the carne asada tacos and guacamole were only ok and not worth their cost. Also it's very loud and hard to hear the person next you you.
Chris GoldenJanuary 24, 2015Start with chips and guac and Brussel sprouts and the night gets better from there
amelieAugust 29, 2014Dangerously addictive guacamole. They refill chips and we never saw the bottom of the bowl
Come for happy hour! 2 tacos for $6! The heirloom salad is delicious!
JasonJuly 17, 2011Guac is _not fresh_!! Everyone orders it and loves it but you can get the avocado mix at Costco. Salsa doesn't have much flavor either
The roasted brussels sprouts with cotija cheese are delicious!
MelanieFebruary 23, 2011everything was amazing! didn't think it was possible to find amazing Mexican food in the Bay area.
Nelly SaltyNovember 20, 2011I come to this place every time I visit SF. The carne asada tacos are the bombdiggity.
Meg OApril 29, 2010The guac & chips are to die. Scallops are a must & the ceviche is like no other. Mmmm soo good!
Katie MandelMay 21, 2009Dinner with a big group. Reserve a month ahead and ask for the big raised table in the middle. Cool atmosphere and you can observe the whole place.
Gaia DempseyAugust 22, 2010Best vegetarian tacos I've ever had. Perfectly crispy tortillas wrapped around great flavor.
The gorditas are great! As are the carnitas, enchiladas, and margaritas!
If you can get a seat at the bar, ask them to serve you a margarita "Obama style" it's awesome!
Corinne and JonathanAugust 13, 2011One of our favorite Mexican restaurants in San Francisco. Its worth the wait!
