So last night my friends and I tried this Mexican restaurant and whew... where do I even start…read more First of all, the lady at the front had zero customer service skills. Not welcoming, not friendly, just straight attitude. That already set the tone. Now let's talk tacos. I'm from LA, so when it comes to street tacos, I know what's up. $5.99 for a regular street taco?? And $7.99 for lengua?? Be serious. That's gourmet pricing without gourmet quality. Especially after seeing their old menu prices went from $2.99 to $3.50 to $3.99... and now suddenly almost $6? That price evolution is wild. Respect to the man cooking, he was actually very nice. But kindness alone doesn't justify those prices. The quality just didn't match what they're charging. Inflation is real, but so is value. And this wasn't it.

A let down. Ordered the kids "chicanito" breakfast that states scrambled eggs and my son was served…read moreover medium eggs that he doesn't like. I ordered a torta de pollo asado. On the menu it states it is served with pickled jalapeños, lettuce and mayo, all of which were missing from my sandwich. My family was only checked on after we had already finished all of our food, and we were waiting on a box. I was excited to try this place after reading the reviews, but it unfortunately missed the mark for this family of 4.

Stopped by here before starting our crosstown trail to get coffee and hot chocolate. After the walk…read morewe came back to try tacos and burrito since the place looks pretty authentic. It's a small mom and pop establishment that's going to celebrate their 3rd anniversary in April. Service is pretty friendly. Coffee is a bit too bitter while hot chocolate is way too sweet. So, we mixed in the hot chocolate into the coffee and it's just fine. Veggie taco was pretty good, a bit too greasy but the flavor is all there. Taco placero with chicken tinga couldn't be tasted properly since we had it to go and by the time we got to eat it the whole box was shaken over but the taste is good. The same goes with the burrito.

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.

Carne asada super burrito was tasty, and a solid portion. Came with chips. The roasted peppers and…read moreonions were also flavorful. Would love it if they had more salsas without cilantro, but solid burrito anyways! Service was extremely nice, a few regulars came through during my visit.

Walked all the way back to the restaurant and told them about it and they gave me a weird look, took the burrito and tossed it. Recently ordered the same carne asada super burrito, drove home and found it was a cold burrito so had to reheat it before enjoying it. The food is usually fresh and hot but I know this was sitting out on the table for someone to come along and take it. I've been going here since high school, now a days, it feels a little different.

A friend and I went to Guapas in Oyster Point and we were both thoroughly impressed…read more The restaurant and area are both super clean. Guapas excels in customization and selections. 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.

For as long as I've known, El Farolito and Taqueria Guadalajara has had this longstanding rivalry…read moredue to them being literally across the street from each other and they have been staples in the neighborhood for years. Growing up, my family and I frequented to Taqueria Guadalajara- but this all changed for me in the past few years. El Farolito always has flavorful food, good portions, and is reasonably priced. This specific location of El Farolito is my favorite because of its proximity to other businesses I go to and the customer service is great. I either get a shrimp burrito or steak quesadilla, but today I decided to get a steak and shrimp burrito as a treat along with chips and a pina jarrito. They serve you rather quickly, and I'm not lying when I say that El Faro has some of the best Mexican food in San Francisco.

Terrible service. When people don't care about customers, it's a good indication they care little…read moreabout those customers' food. So I do NOT trust bad service. First time at this excelsior el farolito. I've been going to the mission one for over 20 years. Even went to South Bay one. Today the table had green salsa on it. No problem. Found a new table. But the issue started when I told the guy I had chemotherapy yesterday & can't use community salsa (doctor's rules). I asked if I can have the chef put the salsa verde from his stash in the taco directly. Cashier guy says "oh mija, my sister went through that I pray for you." But he tells me they "only put the hot salsa on tacos." Ok I need the green mild one. Now I see chef putting the damn green salsa on a burrito. So I ask him for his non-communal salsa verde. He already wrapped my tacos so I asked if he can put it in a little cup. He says no, go to salsa bar. I told him I can't go to a communal salsa bar. Showed my damn bald head, I have a dumb ass mask on and said I can't today. I gave him a Little cup and kindly asked if he can put his green salsa in, but he says no. Go to salsa bar. Then cashier comes up and says, "he would have to go ALL THE WAY back in the kitchen (15 steps) to get your salsa." Mind you there are two people at register ordering. Not 10 or even 4 people in line. It would take 10 seconds out of this man's day to get me non-communal salsa for my safety. The one I took for my son is out all morning and to the afternoon with people Picking at it. I get it. It's not that serious. I'd eat it if I could but I can't per the nadir chemo rules. It is what it is. Not end of world but But it was a strong indication they did not care about me. Now I wonder what happens when they drop something on the floor. So I'm NEVER going back to any of them. I'd suggest you think twice. La Taq has best burritos. El Farilito was my place for tacos. Not anymore. Bye. PS I had even tipped the guy prior To all this and he said "thank you mija!!" Yeah right.

Hubby and I were looking to try a new place and this restaurant happens to be local for us. I…read morechecked their yelp page and saw that there were good reviews with supporting pictures. 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.
