Inconsistent Tacos, Friendly Service
This has been a favorite taco shop, but lately, the quality and flavor have been a little inconsistent. However, the crew are always super helpful and friendly. The Agave margaritas are pretty good, and the handmade tortillas are 🔥.

Disappointing Experience, but a Travel Dream
I typically only enjoy giving 5-star reviews, but I am content to award just 3 stars for this experience. My order was not prepared correctly on two separate occasions. The front desk staff, while generally warmhearted, was not responsive. The kind lady server's only English word for the pork was "better"; personally, I found it a little dry. Two things this place would not achieve in Mexico City are the chlorine stink and survival. I'm glad this experience gave me the next travel dream and I encourage you to visit for the same reason.

Terrible food and experience
My experience at this restaurant was terrible. The food was awful; they must have grilled the tortillas in brown grease. As a result, both my companion and I felt awful after eating there. The atmosphere was rated a 2, and the service was a 3. The food quality was a dismal 1.

Good Tacos, Texture Missed the Mark
My experience at this restaurant involved trying their tacos. While the tacos were good, they weren't particularly special. I found the texture of the Tijuana style tacos did not do it for me.

Delicious Tacos, Great Service!
My experience at this restaurant was absolutely DELICIOUS! 🌮🍤🔥❤️👍🏽 I gave it 5 ⭐️'s and it's definitely going to be one of my new spots. If you're looking for some good Mexican food 🌮🔥❤️, don't second guess. I was starving after fasting all day and a doctor's appointment, and it was Taco Tuesdays 😉 lol. I searched Google for the best super tacos in San Francisco's Mission area, and this place popped up with the most stars ⭐️😉. I ordered the Tijuana style tacos 🌮 with handmade tortillas and grilled cheese. I chose one shrimp 🍤 (clean jumbo prawns 👍🏽🍤❤️) and one steak taco. They came with onions, cilantro, and guacamole on the side. The staff were so nice 💜! They even added chips when I asked if they came with them, and the chips were fresh and warm. My food was still warm when I got home, even with DoorDash delivery LOL. The restaurant was very clean, and they had various sauces in clean, self-service squeezable bottles. Everything was delicious and seasoned to perfection. Thank you all 🙏🏼! You've gained a new customer and many more with my popular reviews 😉⭐️❤️🔥🌮!

Stellar Tacos and Tasty Salsa!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! All the food was great, with stellar items like the shrimp tacos, fish tacos, pastor negro tacos, carnitas tacos, and barbacoa tacos. The salsa was particularly SO tasty. The service and atmosphere also received perfect scores.

Incredible Tacos and Friendly Owner!
My experience at this restaurant was truly exceptional. I believe they serve the best tacos in SF, and the Al Pastor Negro taco was absolutely incredible. The owner is super cool and friendly, even offering us a taste of different tequilas he brought from Mexico. You can really taste the quality in their food. I highly recommend this spot if you're in the area.

Disappointing Tijuana Taco Experience
My experience at the restaurant felt like being transported to Tijuana with the narrow hallway leading to the bathroom. However, beyond that, I'm unsure what all the hype is about. The po shrimp taco was decent, but its design made it difficult to eat. The Tijuana tacos were only named as such; they lacked the essential guacamole found in authentic Tijuana restaurants. Additionally, the layer of cheese made them challenging to consume, and the meat was tough and overcooked. Overall, I wouldn't return.

Exceptional Local Gem!
My experience at this restaurant was a resounding 10/10! The food was absolutely amazing, and the atmosphere was spotlessly clean. The highlight, however, was the owner himself, who personally greeted guests while walking around. He was incredibly kind and humble. This is a local gem that we should all support 1000%. Highly recommended!
