    Bartender!

    It's such a disappointment to see an amazing place lose customers because of the service at the bar. Unfortunately, this is not the first time I've had this experience. The bartender seems to prioritize his friends and certain people at the bar, including people who appear to receive drinks or food without paying, while paying customers are left waiting. Tonight, our server entered our drink orders at the correct time, yet the bartender simply did not make the drinks for our table while continuing to serve others. I've continued coming back because I genuinely like this place and have wanted to give it another chance, but I keep encountering the same dismissive and evasive customer service. It's frustrating because the establishment itself has so much potential, but this type of service can easily drive loyal customers away.

    1 option for vegetarians and tacos are delicious with cheese and cactus. Ambiance is upbeat and music is great. Service is quick.

    Bartenders special

    My boyfriend and I were in the area and stopped by for drinks. I was excited to find a tequila/mezcal bar. The bartender was very nice and greeted us as soon as we sat down. We opted for the "bartenders special" which was a mezcal drink. It wasn't too smoky and was quite refreshing. I also got the claudio. Honestly such a great Mexican old fashioned drink. It was perfect! I will definitely be coming back just for that drink. We also got some chips and guacamole to snack on. The guacamole was very fresh and tasty. It was a great first impression of this place and we will be back!

    This place.... Wow. The carnitas tacos blew my mind and the horchata milkshake with tequila was so good. I would definitely come back here in a heartbeat.

    A solid HH spot for taco tuesday and cocktails. I've never been to a bar/restaurant with a taco grill right at the bar! It was really fun to watch them putting in taco orders while making libations. This spot is VERY busy, they have indoor and outdoor seating and trust me, almost always the tables are filled. Service is definitely on the slower side here, but totally understandable because of how packed this spot gets. Their tacos are small but VERY good and tons of flavors. I would also recommend getting their guac and chips...AMAZING and they give A LOT of guac.

    I'm usually fine paying a lot of money for good food or ambiance but Mosto is not one of those places. We came here for a light dinner and was craving Al pastor tacos. So between two ppl we thought three Al pastor tacos, shrimp cocktail and a beer should probably be enough. The tacos were $5.50 a piece so i just assumed they were gonna be normal sized. But to my dismay when the "tray" of tacos came, my jaw dropped when i saw three teacup miniature sized tacos that look like they came out of those miniature food cooking videos on Instagram/tiktok. I actually thought our server was playing a joke on us bc this wouldn't even be enough to feed a small toddler. See the photo below, one taco was only slightly bigger in diameter than a saltine cracker. at this point I'm thinking, these tacos must be the best Al pastor tacos outside of Mexico seeing as how i am paying $16.50 for three bites. But again not the case. They were just okay and I was left wishing I went to chipotle or even Taco Bell instead. Also to add... at this price point I would much prefer Tacko or Nicks crispy tacos, which to be honest are more delicious and also better value. The shrimp cocktail was not bad but for $13.50 I expected it to at least come with some chips or crackers placed on a dish instead of a few packaged saltines. The service was good (hence I gave them 2 stars otherwise it'd be 1) but I wish they had warned me abt the size of the tacos. I will def not be coming back here as the standout item at Mosto was the saltines and I can get those at Walgreens for $3.

    I don't know how I forgot about this place, (but I guess I haven't been to the Mission since COVID) and freaked out when I realized what if they already closed?? After one quick search on Yelp and I'm just so glad to see they're still around. I used to come here every Tuesday for Happy Hour-- and after all these years, I'm still in love with this place. It's a pretty small and dim space but one thing I love is their unique ceiling design! Service is fast and efficient as well. But ofc, I LOVE their Al Pastor tacos so much! The portions are so generous, holds so much flavor, and the sauce is just cherry on top! Will continue to recommend and support this business! Imo, it's so much better than the taco place right next door to it. Hehe

    Taco Al Pastor
    Rise G.

    Fantastic happy hour spot, especially on a Tuesday. Delicious margaritas and even better al pastor tacos. The space is small but we've never had a problem getting seated pretty quickly, especially if you don't mind sitting at the bar. Not recommended for larger groups. Service is friendly and efficient.

    Hola! We do have limited patio seating available on first come first serve basis. We do not take reservations.

    What time do they actually close?? The wife and I arrived there yesterday at 10.50, sat down and told they had closed? They directed us next door :/

    I had the same thing happen this past Saturday. We got there at 11:05pm and they said they're closed even though their hours on Yelp say 12am for Saturdays.

    Can you order the al pastor tacos if you're eating at tacolicious next door?

The escape room is Alice In Wonderland themed and includes three drinks as part of the experience. Arrived on time for our reservation but were held in a waiting room for about 30 min before we could start. Didn't seem like anyone else was doing the escape room but it was also the week of their biz anniversary so maybe they were just super busy. Phoenix led our escape room and was such a delight. Friendly, great banter, helpful throughout the escape. The escape game is split across multiple rooms with a good diversity of puzzles. Don't want to spoil too much here but they were good challenges. Drinks we incorporated throughout and presented like test tubes that were drinkable in a gulp, kind of like a cocktail shot. Personally, I found the first two drinks to be a bit too sweet, but I liked the third, which was coconut forward. The price is definitely a bit more costly. It was $100/person for a party of five. I understand that it was an escape room + the staff + the cocktails. If you max out the party size, it's about $85-ish per person which I think is pretty solid. Still very unique and fun and glad I got to try it
