    Soft Tacos
    Tatiana N.

    Absolutely delicious tacos! My beer - the Jerry Garcia tribute brew - was the perfect compliment. The staff was really fun and the indoor atmosphere is great while the outdoor seating is comfortable and scenic.

    Pretzel

    Food was awful. My nachos came out very cold. My pretzel was hard and not as soft. You have to scan the menu and order your food and beer. Then someone will finally bring your items. We waited over 30 minutes for our food to come and it was cold. Never saw a server at all. There was a party going on at the restaurant next to us and they were ordering beer here. The beer is good here. But, the service for people who are dining here. My experience here was not good at all. Don't know if I'll come back.

    New favorite pre-concert/pre-game spot. Very good empanadas, great small bites like giant pretzels, very generous pours, and great views. Even a TV they roll outside for other games.

    Coming to Thrive City before a concert, we found the shortest line here to get a bite. Though the dining room tables were full, the line to order food and drinks was relatively short. There were only four people ahead of us with two order stations open. We quickly learned that the soft tacos were sold out so we pivoted. After ordering, we went to the outdoor seating area and found a high top table next to a window. My companion saw a high top open up inside so we moved there after a five minute wait. The cashier gave a pager unit, told us the expediting station location, and that the food would take about 15 minutes. The customer flow was steady but not overwhelming. About 20 minutes later, our pager lit up so I called to the expediting station. A gentleman in a ski hat placed our food on a tray and pointed to a table with utensils and napkins. I tried the ham and cheese empanada (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=IAd9tOYiG-w-hkGpwpEXEQ) which was warm and cake with dipping aioli; the filling (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=IC7hO0VeY_LeFl1iQR3UNQ) was clean and simple yet tasty. I dipped it into the aioli but preferred it without it. We shared the nachos with pork (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=d4MdZ-KHa-6FxfLgqcxz-A) which was a generous portion of tortilla chips topped with shredded pork, cheese sauce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, and pickled jalapenos. It was an interesting mix of textures and flavors. My friend feared the spiciness of the jalapenos which I found more pickle-y than spicy. The kind cashier pointed us to the water station in the far right corner (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=bRARP7KgvtNIWnMbMpX2eA) since we both aren't beer drinkers. This was a nice munchy meal since we didn't want to be too full before dancing to Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. If you're a beer drinker or prefer Mexican cuisine, this is a good option and the wait was not long.

    Solid place to grab a craft beer before an event. Lots of seating inside and outside. I have had both their IPAs and am a fan. They also have guest taps such as Barebottle available. There are food options as well. I had an empanada which wasn't bad.

    3.5 stars. This place was POPPIN' right before the Chase Center concert I went to! Came here with friends and got lucky snatching up a table outside as others were leaving. I tried some guest brew Double IPA I didn't really care for. Lively vibes overall and a great option if you want to be outside along the water. Meh about the beer itself, though.

    Sour beer ($11)

    What a cool spot! We were headed to the Chase Center for a concert and decided to grab a drink here beforehand. It was packed! We were there on a Friday night and couldn't get a table for a while, so stood and enjoyed the outdoor area. They have a good selection of drinks to choose from. I chose the sour and it was SO good! Several people were eating a meal here, so they do have food too. You order at a counter and then take a seat. The staff working were really friendly and the location is awesome- it definitely got chilly hanging outside here at night. My niece was able to order a mocktail that she enjoyed too.

    Harmonic got great beer and they have food and snacks as well. We came here on a non-game night for a quiet evening. The space is beautiful and they have board games, views and did I say great beer?! Of course there's a completely different vibe and energy during games and events too. Either way, the bay view is always there - beckoning us. Food wise - both the tacos and empanadas were tasty and a bit small for our appetite. Prices are much more reasonable than inside the arena and average for SF prices. Will be back :)

    IPA and the bay
    Alex D.

    The beer selection was great, and the ambience of the place was also great. The balcony views of the bay were incredible and I would definitely have a beer here again.

    Do we need reservations for Super Bowl Sunday?

    With the Chase Center playing the game on their giant screen on the plaza, we are expecting a very large walk up crowd, and won't be taking reservations for the super bowl. We do have a lot of seating available, and are encouraging guests to arrive…

    Where do I even begin. I'd been hearing about this place all over social media, so I had to finally…read moretry it. We came early, and I'm glad we did because the line started forming about 30 minutes before opening. By the time they opened, it was already around the corner. The place has an authentic Mexico feel, from the look of the restaurant to the smells coming from the kitchen. The staff were incredible, but one of my favorite parts was being able to watch the whole process right in front of me. It definitely build up my appetite. I ordered two tacos de asada, and honestly, two were more than enough. These tacos were big and packed with meat. They do things a little differently here they used pico de gallo instead of the usual onion and cilantro. I asked them to add the onion and cilantro anyway, and when they came out, I was impressed. The steak was tender, juicy, and had a flavor I honestly hadn't experienced in a taco before. It had this deep, savory, smoky taste that felt completely different from the tacos I'm used to getting in Chicago. The meat itself was so well seasoned that it could easily stand on its own. The freshness from the pico balanced the richness of the steak, while the salsa brought a nice kick that stayed with you after every bite. Simple, but so much flavor packed into each taco. I'm really glad I finally got the chance to try La Taqueria.

    Went to La Taqueria for lunch during our San Francisco vacation. First of all, had to make a…read morelengthy line outside to order. They have a hostess with a podium just outside the door taking orders. We ordered and indicated that we wanted to eat in, in which case we continued to wait to be seated. They have someone in charge of seating people as well (much needed). This place is apparently a landmark. Old fashioned, fast paced, efficient, small, authentic, mostly delicious! Tried several of their tacos, the chicken quesadilla and a burrito. The burrito was delightful. Plenty of steak but still balanced and fresh. The steak tacos are also meaty and good. The meat is well seasoned and, being authentic, it is allowed to be the prominent ingredient. I would similarly describe the chicken and even the beef tongue tacos. What I loved the most, however, was the beef head taco. Immense and incredible flavor beefy flavor, not to mention that moat restaurants wouldn't dare having it on the menu. By far the best taco I've ever had. If I get the chance to visit La Taqueria again that's all I want to eat. Unfortunately there were also two items that I found to be disappointing. One was the quesadilla. Even though the chicken is good it was very greasy. The other was the pork taco. Didn't love the flavor and, again, a bit on the fatty side for me, which is not often my opinion on a pork dish. All in all, if you want to experience authentic tacos, go here. And... live a little! Order the beef head taco.
