    Is there a solid Taqueria in Top of the Hill Daly City? Yes. Yes there is. Los Cuernos is an…read moreunassuming taqueria which after walking in, you'll discover it actually has a large dining area and an extensive menu of Mexican Classics. I visited recently to try their super breakfast burrito. The couple working here are extremely friendly and hard working people. So how was my burrito? It was ginormous, one of the biggest burritos I've seen in a long time. It was well balanced and all the ingredients were portioned properly. Maybe a little more meat would have been nice though. Overall a very solid Mexican spot in Daly City.

    So... $5.99 for a regular street taco? Naturally, I was curious. At that price, I was expecting…read moresomething that would separate it from the countless great taco spots around the Central Valley maybe handmade tortillas, grilled-to-order meat, or something memorable. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. The chicken taco ($5.99) was good, but there was no wow factor. The chicken had decent flavor, but everything else felt pretty basic for a nearly $6 taco. The crunchy taco ($5.99) was probably the most disappointing. It reminded me of a small supermarket-style hard taco shell. The chopped steak inside was actually good, but it was heavily covered in shredded cheese. Then there's the Super Taco ($7.99). This one is a skip for me. It was loaded with cheese and watery guacamole, while the al pastor was drenched in sauce and seasoning. There was so much going on that I couldn't really appreciate the meat itself. That's roughly $20 for three tacos before tax... and ultimately, they still felt like fairly basic tacos made with basic ingredients. We also ordered the chicken quesadilla, and I'll give them this: it was MASSIVE. Definitely not lacking in portion size. But again, there was so much cheese, and the chicken was diced so finely that I found myself questioning the overall quality and freshness rather than appreciating the chicken. Surprisingly, my favorite part of the meal was the complimentary chips and green salsa. The green salsa had a nice kick and great flavor. Interestingly, though, our two cups tasted completely different one was flavorful and spicy, while the other was noticeably bland. After everything, we somehow walked out spending around $45 after tipping at checkout. That's where this place loses me. I'm willing to pay more for good food, and I understand restaurant prices have gone up everywhere. But when you're charging $5.99-$7.99 per taco, the quality has to justify it. The food wasn't terrible. It just wasn't memorable enough for the price. If you're coming here expecting elevated tacos to match the elevated price, I would temper those expectations.

    George and I decided to try Melissa's Taqueria after calling ahead twice with a couple of…read morequestions. They confirmed they serve refried beans and that breakfast is available all day, although it might take a bit longer during lunch hours. That was enough for us to get in the car and head over to Brisbane. This is not a trendy or modern spot, but more of a good old fashioned Mexican restaurant. It focuses on simple, familiar dishes rather than trying to reinvent anything. When we walked in, there were only a few people there, and they seemed like regulars. It gave the place a comfortable, neighborhood feel. I ordered the generous chorizo plate, which came with scrambled eggs, refried beans, Spanish rice, and tortillas on the side. The menu said it included three eggs. If that is the case, they must have been on the smaller side. The chorizo was decent, though milder than I expected, and the eggs could have been cooked a little less. Still, it was a solid and satisfying meal overall. George left most of his rice but ate the rest of his food, and I finished everything on my plate. The restaurant was clean, and the owner was friendly when we spoke with him. The service, however, was a bit hands off. My water glass was never refilled, and no one checked back to see if we needed anything else, which I found a little annoying. Even with those minor issues, there is something appealing about the place. It feels like a local staple with a steady group of regulars. I am interested in going back to try more of the menu. Brisbane has ample parking without meters.

I did look it up seems thats just how they make it. And it was supposed to come with sour cream and salsa but I didn't taste or see any. It was a ok burrito besides the broccoli lol, they made it quick and the place has cute decor. Id be interested to try other things...but after seeing some reviews I wont be back

It looked like a place with a fresh twist, I ate half and on my last bite of the half I realized the chicken seemed off when I spit it out I realized it was completely RAW. This is beyond disgusting. When I went inside and showed the older lady, she did NOT apologize and just said oh you want me to make another. No I'm disgusted, I asked for a refund. Not once did I get any apology from either employee. Then she was worried about getting in trouble, 0 care that I could get sick from the disgusting mistake this place made. So grossed out by the food and service. This is embarrassing, I have NEVER experienced something so horrendous at a food place. Raw chicken is unacceptable.

I got a quesadilla on a flour tortilla. I got both carne asada and chicken asada for proteins- both meats were spiced perfectly and I received a heart portion which was nice. For sauces Inside the quesadilla I got Queso Fresco and Truffle Crema. Both were standouts with flavor but that truffle crema- OMG, so delicious!! Savory with an earthy undertone- complemented the meat so nicely. I got other topping such as corn and lettuce which were fresh! Delicious Mexican food and exceptional service in a calm and cool environment.

The food looked delicious, eye candy. Parking is limited. It's a small place, but big enough to come in with a fairly large group. We walked in and sat down. I noticed a huge counter with a big television screen playing music videos of Latin music, jamming. There were a couple of tables and cultural decor. It was clean and inviting. The server greeted us and brought us chips and salsa verde. The salsa verde was to my liking, perfect amount of spicy. The server came back and took our orders: - Caldo de res (my order), came with rice, tortillas, and cilantro with onions - Grilled chicken tacos - Chicken quesadilla My caldo res was tasty and so good. I love the flavor of the broth. Big portion for me. I finished it though lol. I tasted hubby's tacos and quesadilla, also yummy. I love that they grilled the chicken, gives the flavor more depth. This will be one of our local spots. Thank you, El Taconazo for cooking for us.

The shrimp cocktail had a lot of shrimp, avocado, and cucumber which was delicious. But the actual cocktail juice was light in flavor. Because we took it to go I was able to doctor it up with some extra cocktail sauce, horseradish, hot sauce and lemon. I also loved that they serve saltines with their shrimp cocktail because some places just give chips. The fried fish was delicious and unfortunately I wasn't able to try the aguachilles before they ran out which might mean they were good.

The birria tacos came with 3 regular sized tacos and honestly each one is pretty dense with meat and cheese. The consome also had some meat although, I think it was beef and not goat. Everything was tender but the flavor was just ok for me. My mom wanted a carnitas super burrito and this was pretty good. Lots of meat and some bits were crispy just how I like it. I wouldn't mind getting it again but I do want to try their al pastor next time. Their fish plate was pretty good as well. Loved the crispness of the fish and it didn't feel greasy or heavy. It came with avocados, rice, beans, lettuce and 4 flour tortillas. I wouldn't mind getting this again. A basket of chips came for each person as soon as we sat down and there was a healthy selection of salsa. I didn't care for the chips itself as they were too salty for me. The ambiance is very festive and there were plenty of people coming in and out. We dined in and found myself wishing they gave real silverware rather than plastic. We were only give one real fork for the fish and it was difficult to break apart. Their plastic cutlery was also pretty flimsy so we mostly ate with our hands. Overall, I'd still come back and try other dishes.
