    chicken burrito
    Sarah C.

    pretty down and dirty nook in excelsior district, seems pretty authentic. the menu is huge, I just got the chicken burrito (not the super which comes with sour cream, guac, and cheese). it came with free chips which were the best thing -- thin, seasoned very well, came with various sauces. the burrito ingredients were seasoned nicely and I liked the tang from the tomato sauce which was unique, but it was a hit or miss with some people. I wish the ratio of beans and rice to chicken was more proportionate (too much carbs) but overall a decent spot if in the area (still very much prefer mission burritos though)

    Quesabirria special, $12.99 - 4.5 stars. Very tasty but also very oily! 2025-10-02 Thursday lunch

    Really love my quesabirria and carnitas taco (both 4.5 stars). My partner really enjoys the fish taco. No wait on a Thursday at 12: 30pm for lunch.

    Very good soups- I've had the caldo de res and the pozole rojo! They both come out very hot so you definitely need to take your time if you're eating here. Super busy in here usually but they move pretty fast but its definitely easier to get to go and take it home. The lady that works here is very kind and will check in on you frequently.

    Breaded shrimp plate

    #14 Camaron empanizados, breaded shrimp. Came with rice, beans, and tortillas to make your own fried shrimp tacos. Delicious!

    Always good. Sometimes busy. Never parking. Good place to practice your Spanish. And still has open salsa bar.

    Incredible Mexican food. Everytime I go it's always phenomenal. Parking is rough but worth the potential short walk

    CAMARONES EMPANIZADOS

    BEST FOOD EVER!!!! I've tried almost everything on the menu and haven't had a bad dish! My favorite dishes are Shrimp Cocktail, Shrimp Ceviche, Camarones Empanizados, Birria Tacos, Enchiladas, and their Burritos!! Every dish is packed with love and flavor!! Their ingredients are always fresh. If you like spicy ask for their habanero salsa, it's sooo good! Aside from their delicious food the staff is super friendly and always making you feel as if you are home! I can't not say it enough but this is my Absolute Favorite Restaurant!!

    Chicken enchiladas
    Enola H.

    So first off ! Their food is so good. The green salsa people raved about is really that good. The customer service I got tonight was phenomenal and that person deserves a raise. The ambiance it's pretty cozy and local only thing was there was a lot of dirty dishes on the tables still but to be fair they were getting get ready to close. I got the chicken enchiladas which was recommended by the waitress. Super good super tasty. 10/10.

    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.
