“A DAMN good experience at this restaurant. From the moment you walk in you know it's going to be amazing! Service was amazing. I felt like we had 3-4 servers at all times. They knew what I needed before I knew what I needed lol. I would have given them 5 stars but I had to subtract a star because one of their cocktail straws had mold or a tissue stuck in it? Brought it to the severs attention and they immediately apologized and brought me a new drink. They even comped the drink which I appreciated. Ambience was intimate but lots of lighting which was nice. Food was delicious and well crafted. Definitely will be back, hopefully the cocktail don't disappoint next time .“

“The pork was marinated in a super delicious citrus marinade and cooked so tender on the burrito very impressed yumVegetarian options: All dishes can be made vegetarian. Not vegan.Parking: Street parking can be scarce as this is in the 24th street Bart block.Kid-friendliness: This is neither kid friendly nor kid opposed, this is a typical taqueria atmosphere and depending on the time of day the adult clientele can be appropriate for families but as it gets later it does appear to have a more intoxicated adult environment.“

“If you want a real burrito and and the real feel of a hole in da wall, then this is the place for you. Cash only so don't try to pull out your debit, or credit card. Also don't walk around with your cell phone and camera in hand, ya just might get it snatched in that area.“

“I’ve been here twice now and only eaten the tasting menu, an option Copas and chef Julio do on thurs/fri. Incredible experience both times, getting different, creative dishes like a Dungeness crab taco and a brisket mole. The price point of the menu and the bev pairing, done by Erica, are fantastic. For the quality-to-deal ratio, this is prob the best in the city. I’ve been to californios, a two star spot and many of the dishes here at Copas would fit seamlessly in there if not outshine them. Chef and Erica are wonderful to chat to and have a o-so obvious talent and love for their crafts. There’s zero doubt I will return for a third time“

“I can't really call this place a hidden gem in the mission but for what it's worth, the ratings do justice to how great the food is. The cuisine and flavors and unpredictable and interesting. The ambiance is jovial, inviting, not fancy but bustling. Service is knowledge and has good insight into menu and secret menu. My favorite dishes were the mole, tacos (minus the fish one), and the churro with coconut ice cream. Highly recommend this spot, the mole is incredible! Prices are also reasonable for this type of culinary experience. Presentation of the dishes is innovative and pleasant on the eye. Daily happy hour from 4-6 is also a hit.“

“Got take out from here the other day. We ordered the huarrches and enchilades rojas. We like the huarrches because you don't see it on a lot of menu's. I liked how it had beans inside the masa and it came with a generous portion of carnitas. The enchilades were delicious too. Both were slightly pricy, but good food overall. Look forward to eating here in person soon.“

“Loved their Al pastor cauliflower tacos! They're delicious! Haven't seen this vegetarian option on menus. We also got the mushroom cheese dish to share. They give about 6 fresh tortillas with it. Great for sharing between 2-4 ppl. Great service. The decor and the vibe of the place totally goes with the menu. Came here for a friend's birthday. We were group of 10 ppl or so!“

“Absolutely a hidden gem! I got a chileajo tamale and a Oaxacan hot chocolate. The tamale came with a sauce that was smoky, a little spicy, and the perfect compliment to the tamale. And it was only $6! Hot chocolate was also delicious and made by hand at our table. So happy to have found this place and would recommend to anyone visiting the Mission.“

“What to say!? This spot has got it all. Indoor eating with beautiful art on the wall, delicious food and an extensive wine menu to try. I ordered and lives their large pozole (pictured) which is a red pork or chicken stew with a rich broth. They also serve delicious horchata. I'm definitely returning!July '22 update: ordered the plantain pastor burrito ($12) and it was delicious. Confirmed as well that the pozole is amazingly rich with flavors of oregano, red onion, hominy and lime“

“The best tacos I have ever had! Their Super Taco is out of this world! I love the veggie options. It wasn't crowded. It was clean and everyone was friendly! I am so glad it was recommended to me. I will definitely be coming again whenever I am in the City.“

“This is one of my favorite restaurants in the Bay Area. I honestly don't even like Breakfast Burritos at most places, but the one here is easily the best one I have ever had. In my life. Perfectly constructed with the right amount of greasy chorizo goodness(but not too greasy), perfectly scrambled eggs, creamy cheese and avacado, and crispy tater tots. Plus a nice hot mayo to go with it, there is not a single thing I would change about it. It's probably the best thing I've eaten in 2024 so far.Their birria pizza is also amazing, some of the best Birria I've had in Northern California, and everything on the menu in general is delicious. The owner is super nice and it's a cute little spot in the city. I can't reccomend it enough honestly, a must visit.“

“Went here to try the SF restaurant week menu. It has a very nice atmosphere and the food is presented well. I felt that the experience missed the mark a bit though considering the prices. The menu is authentic Mexican but the flavours were lacking. For example, in the hibiscus margarita, the hibiscus was soo diluted compared to one you would get at a nice restaurant in Mexico. And it was similar for the food… the flavours were lacking. The duck on the menu was nice but too salty, while the dessert was too sweet. Our specific server seemed inexperienced but other staff were very attentive. In summary, I was hoping for the flavours to better match what I get in Mexico.“

“As soon as my husband and I walked in, the owner welcomed us with a warm smile. We both tried the cheeseburger, the fries, the chicken nuggets, and jalapeño poppers. The food was delicious and the service is excellent. We will definitely be back the next time we visit.“

“Tasty mexican food in North Beach.It was pretty early - like 5:30 pm - and the place was empty, so the orders delivery was fast. We had a burrito (big!) and some tacos with carne asada (portion of three), a cheese enchilada and tacos with guacamole. Everything was really tasty, maybe a little hard to digest (more than other mexican experiences) but I have to say I was really hungry and I ate fast.This food plus two margaritas was like 72$ without tip and I think it’s pretty expensive (it was the most expensive dinner in a almost two weeks trip in and around San Francisco so I think it’s something worth to say). Not so happy with that.Other things: the neighborhood is pretty great, the location is just okay (it doesn’t recall authenticity but it looks more like a franchise fast food); service is a bit cold but kind so nothing to whine about (it’s just an observation).So yeah if you’re hungry, price it’s not a problem and you aren’t looking for a “traditional” kind of thing, this is the place!“

“Really warm and welcoming service and a mule kick of a great margarita, what's not to like? We enjoyed all the plates especially the pozole Roja and Baja fish tacos, both dishes so flavorful ($18/$16). I thought the prices were a little steep for two small street tacos and also the two chocolate chip cookie dessert. They were both very good - but priced too high ($8 for two cookies?) Buttermilk churros with a dark chocolate sauce were dreamy. Definitely order those to split, delicious. Great decor, you could spend time meditating on the beautiful, fluttery ceiling in a gorgeous color of ocean blue.“

“This is for the Pompano location. Ok folks, let me preface with I'm not a super fan of Mexican food. Last night we decided to try this place and boy I was more than impressed. I had the Las Olas chimichanga stuffed with shrimp & crab and boy what a flavor festival. My girlfriend had the chile relleno's and she said they are the best she has had in FL. The service was great & the food was beyond belief. I left looking forward to going back & that has not happened to me with regards to Mexican food in 15 + years. This place is a must try.“

“Very cool ambiance! The cocktails were well crafted and the food was really flavorful! Only a few cons- the music was a bit loud so sometimes it felt like shouting to have a conversation and it was a bit surprising to only get one taco per serving for the price - but it was a very good taco (the saffron chicken).“

“Great food, great staff and vegetarian options. Just ask and they can accommodate.The hangover breakfast burrito is one of my favorite dishes here. Tortillas are handmade and super yummy.Vegetarian options: They can make some dishes vegetarian. They can add mushrooms and other veggies so your options are not just limited to cheese enchiladas and quesadillas.“

Thank you, everyone at TAQUERIA EL BUEN SABOR, for making meal time pleasant, delicious and simple,as it was meant to be.Vegetarian options: Menu displays options and is very easy to understand.“

“Awesome little restaurant/cafe, with probably the best pricing we’ve experienced in the Bay Area. Based on her reactions to the food, this was probably my girlfriend’s favorite of our breakfast spots we’ve tried on vacation. 10/10, everyone needs to try the Mexican coffee!!“

“Really solid tacos + so affordable. I got the lengua, cabeza, and carne - all for ~$11. The lengua and cabeza were my favorites - they were both super tender. Carne was just a tad dryer than the other options. The tacos I got were actually pretty wet, making it a bit hard to eat them all / hold their shape within the floppy taco shell. Will have to come back and try the famed carnitas!“

“Birria burrito was tasty. Meat was flavorful and melt in your mouth. Was surprised that they used plain rice rather than Spanish rice. Tortilla was so deliciously flaky, I wondered if it was lavash.Decore is your typical no frills tacqueria with brightly colored throw pillows, paintings of natives doing everyday things, but a nice touch is the counter set up to look like the Golden Gate Bridge.Very few options for agua frescas so we got Mexican Mocha, which was good.Neighborhood locals like to go here and everyone is really friendly.“

“I was very excited to eat Filipino food again for the first time in years after I stopped eating meat. ✨ This location was very clean, there's standing coubterop seating inside and plenty of patio seating in the back. During dinner rush, I've seen a line even during weekdays. ⚡ The staff is friendly and the food was ready quickly. ? Got the Señor Sisig Bowl with tofu, medium spicy, and it was OK. The flavor overall was sweet, not savory enough, missing acidity to brighten it up. I don't like sweet chili sauce and it tasted and looked like the tofu was marinated in it. The garlic rice wasn't garlicy. The medium spice level was nice, not too spicy for a whole meal. I'd try the vegan chicken next time. ? Pretty good value, ~$14 + tax“

“Powell Station is footsteps away making Tropisueno my "go to" restaurant when I am near Union Square. The menu selection is diverse, which is great, but the last 2 times I have eaten there the service has fallen below satisfactory. I am bewildered as to why, seeing that they have far more wait staff than most restaurants.“

“Great food & good service but they do Not accept cash payment. & they'll blame you for not reading it on the menu. If you insist on paying in cash, they will be a dramatic refusal of cash. Not only did we pay in cash we tipped near 30% tip. I just think having a zero cash policy is unwelcoming to many customers & not worth the confrontation. It felt as though cash had zero value but it's a legal tender. I would happily return if cash wasn't refused.“

“Colibri is a Mexican bistro right close by the sea. It's a beautiful place for a hot meal in their outside court. The sun can fall into your eyes and start toasting you, so stick to those covered tables if possible. Keep in mind that although it's upscale, it is traditional and sticks with its roots. Not the kind of traditional that someone from the South is used to.Really great quality food. The spice was a big wake-up call for me. The drinks are fun (they put one of their cocktails in a peacock glass!) and they make sharing easy.“

“I don't typically crave Mexican or even Latin inspired cuisine.... No particular reason other than I am from Hawaii and until recently it hasn't been as prevalent. But that is neither here nor there. It was 8 months ago. My sis had the Mole, she loves it and loved it. I don't remember my entree. It was probably a quesadilla. But. Omg. The flan. The flan was so epic. I wish I had a pic. The outside seating was gorgeous too.“

“De lo más auténtico. I felt like I was in Sanahcat, Mexico eating in an abuelita’s kitchen. Amazing, real, legitimate Mayan indigenous food. This did my whole heart good. I was not expecting this much deliciousness and yet that’s what I got. (We shared a salbute, a tamal and an order of cochinita pibil for the two of us.) Almost all of the clientele when we were there was Yucatec Maya (the guys at the table next to us were chatting in Maya). Utz tin t’aan.“

“Vegetarian options: They have specific items on the menu for vegetarians, and I never had an issue with meat getting into my burritos. They dont sacrifice quality when it comes to their serving speed. All of the staff are friendly, and they serve food two blocks from Union Square. It is very convenient.“

“Amazing. From being greeted, customer service top notice. The food so good. Each of us ordered something different and we each others food. This ribs absolutely amazing. The fries done perfectly and I was able to get an iced coffee. Your order will be enough for 2-3 meals. Each of us could not finish our item. So funny I pass here almost every day to the gym, and I see the sign. I never stopped by and so now I will be here more often. My brother and his better half have been coming here for a few years. Thankful for this hidden gem. Blessed and tummy full.“

We also got a torta de pierna equally big and delicious. If you are a first timer, definitely get the torta cubana it won't disappoint! The service was good and there is seating inside the place.

“When it feels like restaurant food quality everywhere is going down while prices go up, Loltun stands apart - a shining light in the darkness. The food is so good and the prices are so affordable you might forget which city you're eating in. It's really like nothing else.The food is delicious, you can taste the care that is put in, the freshness and quality of the ingredients, in every bite. The portions are great for sharing and prices are super reasonable. It instantly became one of my favorite restaurants in SF.Everything on the menu is great, you can't go wrong. The Ponuchos, Salbutes, Tamales and Tortas are fantastic. The Poc-Chuc is incredible and the Caldo de Res is soothing, warm, and flavorful. Every dish comes with sauces, pickled veggies, citrus, salsa, and more. The combinations of flavors you can put together in a bit is unrivaled.Whether you're visiting the city or you've lived here for years, I truly cannot recommend this place enough.“

“Authentic Mexican, freshly made, fast service and friendly staff.Walk in place your order, if you’re dining in they’ll give you a # and drop the food off at your table. They normally get you served in 5 minutes or less and are always friendly.My fav here is the quesabirria which come with two and the birria juice. The meat is always juicy and tender, packed with flavor. The tortilla always has a nice crisp and holds up well to the juices and dipping birria. Dipping birria is perfectly tasty adds great flavor and even more juice. I’d give this item 5/5 stars!“

“The Bay Area has a shortage of good sit down Mexican restaurants, so it was really nice coming here! The enchiladas tasted authentic, the chicken was seasoned nicely and the sauce was delicious. The rice and beans also hit the spot! My only complaint is the lack of drink choices and the chips weren't good.“

“This is a local restaurant which provides outstanding service. The ambiance is simple but nice. For my meal, I ordered the chicken mole which was a generous portion and came with corn tortillas. The chicken was nice and juicy and the mole was good as well -- I personally like the flavors of the mole to be a little deeper, but that's just a personal preferences. The enchiladas were excellent as well.“
