This place has great food, decent portions, and awesome service. I ordered the cochinita pipil (a pork shoulder shoulder stew), and it was juicy and really tasty. The tortillas it was served with were bomb, and so were the sauces. If you like spicy, go for the yellow one! The location is a bit shady, so if you're going at night it might be a good idea to walk there with a friend or two. Still, it's only a block away from the 16th street BART station. BYOB, but no corkage or bottle fee! read more

I haven't been as surprised as I was during my first dinner at Poc Chuc since Ricky Martin announced he was gay. Poc Chuc is an unassuming spot off the beaten path in the mission which rewards guests with some of the best latin food around. Great home-made tortillas and chips accompany healthy portioned meat dishes made with fresh ingredients. The house special, the Poc Chuc, is grilled pork with grilled onions, cabbage salad, rice, beans, and fresh home-made tortillas (I believe it was $14). Delicious and really enough for 2 meals. Similar for the carne asada. The space is relatively nice and the staff is friendly and helpful. Our server was great and even gave us tastes of their aguas frescas (the horchata is great). I've already been back three times since that first visit and plan to make it a weekly stop - that says a lot given my love for mexican food and the high competition in the neighborhood. read more

This place had me at hello, here are your platanos fritos. Years ago, when I spent a summer in Honduras, I ate plantains prepared just about every which way someone could think to prepare them. I've always thought fried was a good way to go, but sometimes they come out too greasy, too stiff, or too soggy. Poc-Chuc gets 'em just right -- fat and tender, dry on the outside and moist all the way through. Eat them alongside an order or two of the platillo Maya, and you should be just about set to make this your favorite new casual restaurant. When the entrees come out, they won't look fancy; but they have so much flavor that I literally contemplated each bite to try to figure out what spices were making my steak quite that good. (I failed on that end, though, so if any of you eat the bistek de res special, let me know your thoughts on how to replicate it at home!) And the refried black beans that accompany the entrees are outrageously well done. Paste them into a tortilla, eat them straight off the spoon, or let the tips of your fingers dive right into the little bowl they come in. They have the rich look of a dark chocolate ganache and the deliciousness of it too. The waiter also gets high marks, not just for service but for making recommendations that are dead-on. He takes the menu--which begs for a little bit of graphic design work if not at least some lamination or nicer paper--to another level. His descriptions of the dishes are detailed and emphatic; for once, you actually trust that this waiter knows the food he's describing and really means it when he says this one is the best and that one is excellent too. And if you're looking for a restaurant with a good scene, know that this one is in high demand on a Friday night. By 8 or 9 p.m. the place is packed and buzzing; it feels like a place you might just want to stay all night. read more

Homemade Orchata just tastes divine. Not too sweet with rice dominating and making me smile. Three other guests at the table, one chef and two in cooking school, one of them from the Yucatan, MX. They were all highly pleased with level of spice (high), service (excellent), and the over all deep authenticity of the food. Dining room is medium sized with bright decor and clean bathrooms. Sort of an odd spot right on 16th at S. Van Ness feels sort of out of the way or like you wouldn't just pop by. Menu is accented heavily by the meat items, although there are veggies options, it feels like you are missing the point. Never fun for a vegetarian. Their specials change every day and they obviously care about the food they prepare. Definitely worth a vist! read more

Cheap, good, authentic food in the Mission. What's not to love! Poc-Chuc is located a bit off the beaten path, but it's easily accessible. The restaurant is longer than it is wide. Every menu item is pretty solid and huge portions. Of course, you can go for the classic poc-chuc dish, which is enough to feed two people. I enjoyed some tacos as I wasn't too hungry for dinner that day. Also, if you check in with Yelp! you get free dessert! Go fot it :) read more

Very tasty, not your typical taqueria. Styles are from southern parts of Mexico with more of an emphasis on pre-Columbian styles. Of special note was the habanero hot sauce made in house. If you don't like spicy, stay away, but I mistakenly thought it was green tomatillo salsa and put a large gob on a tortilla. Wow! Huge kick but tremendous flavor too. Another plus, horchata and agua fresca were made fresh and not too sweet. Tortillas were soft, thick, warm and made fresh. The waiter was extremely helpful. He also comped several things for us for no apparent reason. We're definitely put this on our lists of restaurants to return to. read more

Went here for dinner after taking a friend sightseeing in San Francisco. We started with some guacamole and fried plantains, both of which were really good. For my entree, I got the turkey mole. I usually get chicken mole at restaurants, never gotten turkey before. The consistency of the sauce is different from what I'm used to (thinner and more soup-like) but it was tasty nonetheless. My hubby liked his pork dish (forgot what it was called) and my friend who's vegetarian enjoyed their veggie trio. The prices are extremely reasonable and the service was good. Probably the only minus for me is no alcohol, would have been nice if they at least had beers. read more

I had a few questions in mind when I went to this place. Is Mayan cuisine very different from standard Mexican-American cuisine? Even if so, would I be able to tell the difference? What color would my cheese be? Eating at Poc-Chuc didn't completely answer all of my questions, but it did tell me this: Mayan food can be freaking delicious. THE GIST: Fresh agua fresca / Excellent braised pork / Delicious corn tortillas / Good service SERVICE AND SETTING I went here for a late dinner on a Saturday night. The restaurant wasn't very busy but had a few large parties and a number of diners eating alone; the latter may have been a hint of locals returning for a good meal. The restaurant quite clean and spacious for a place in SF. Service was very friendly and relatively quick. Our waiter was busy with the large party and took a long time to give us our check, but was very apologetic and even gave us dessert (a flan) on the house. Classy! FOOD AND VALUE Chips and salsa: Served with a mild and a spicy salsa. The chips themselves are excellent. The spicy salsa creeped up on me on the first bite and should not be taken lightly. Agua fresca: I had mango and my friend had watermelon. Not an expert, but both were very flavorful and fresh. Rice and Corn Tortillas: Delicious. I believe they are both served with most of the entrees. I am usually not a fan of corn tortillas but the ones served here were amazing. Poc-Chuc (grilled pork): Probably my least favorite part of the meal, it was a little dry and didn't really stand out in any way for me. Disappointing, because it shares the name with the restaurant! Braised pork stew: The name of the dish escapes me and I cannot find it on the online menu... a shame, because it was my favorite part of the meal! Tender and tasty with a little bit of kick. I had a lot of fun eating it with the corn tortillas and rice. Flan: I don't usually order it and this one didn't really change that. However, it was given to us on the house and I must say, food is definitely more satisfying when it's free. Classy move on their part. The pricing escapes me, but I remember it being reasonable for a non-standard cuisine restaurant in SF. CONCLUSION I'm not quite sure what the difference between Mayan and Mexican cuisine is, though I did notice there weren't any enchiladas or burritos on the menu. That being said, Poc-Chuc made me love Mayan food... whatever that is. read more

I love several of the dishes here and they serve breakfast ALL day. Chips are better here than any other place. The black beans are creamy and rich. The chicken and rice that has been stewing all day is a real treat. And so much food I always need a doggy bag read more

Poc Chuc is a small, cozy place to have a solid Latin American meal. All the food here is standard at worst. The problem with many Latin American places these days is how filling the dishes are. I blame this on the tendency they have to flood the plate with rice and beans. Though Poc Chuc still offers rice and beans, the way it is presented, and the way that it is made fills you up, but doesn't leave you feeling disgusting. The key to this is probably the Black Bean Puree. I had my doubts about the puree, but as I took my first swallow, I knew this wasn't just a bunch of mashed up beans. Okay, maybe it is, but it tasted much more like a good soup because of its consistency. I'm guessing they filter it several times to give it that cleaner and lighter taste. Anyways, if you haven't guessed already, I'm obsessed with these beans. Beans aside, I had the Appetizer Sampler, Poc Chuc, Pescado Frito, and the Carne Asada. The sampler was the most disappointing part of the meal. Of the five components, the best one was the Panucho, which was like a turkey taco. What made the appetizers notably more delicious was the Habanero Salsa that came with them. The salsa had an incredible combination of smokiness and spiciness, with a hint of pickled onions. Sounds strange, but is actually incredible. My least favorite dish was the Pescado Frito, simply because the fish was a little dried out. It was definitely still good, but could possibly have been better. The nice thing about the Pescado Frito is that it isn't fried to death and doesn't leave you with that oily feeling you sometimes get from eating fried foods. Poc Chuc really shines when it comes to their beef and pork. I don't know what they marinade the meat in or what they put on the grill to make their meats taste that way, but it's amazing. The Carne Asada had that classic, subtle citrus flavor combined with the taste of a good barbecue. The Poc Chuc was the same, and was really juicy and infused with the flavor or lime. The pork, especially, melts in your mouth. Good stuff. All in all, if you're looking for a reliable and Latin, Poc Chuc is a Poc Chucin' awesome place to go. GET: Panuchos, Poc Chuc, Habanero Salsa, Black Bean Puree read more

Monday night: rain friend gets lost walking from bart (blames it on bad gps) empty restaurant (well one couple) appetizer plate to share (the large one with like 5 different things) free horchata (check out vampire weekend) and watermelon juice (ding ding) in the end carne asada was better than poc chuc warm tortillas+ spicy salsa + mole sauce on the side = i've been served read more

Seriously. Just go here. Best tacos in the mission for me by far. Get the Poc Chuc taco. A little longer wait I guess but the meat is slow cooked, so tender and tasty. The tortillas are so soft tender, gooey corn perfect authentic style. Felt so taken care of, this place is a Gem. Seconding what another reviewer said. Love that they have their miho on staff working hard and being professional. Wasnt able to tip cause he ran my card without adding a tip or leaving an option for one. Was weird but ill definitely be back to compensate. read more

Yum! Great food for a great price! This place is always packed at lunch time, but miraculously I have never had to wait. Small space that can probably fit 30 people. The kitchen is open and the room can get a little hazy from the smoke and a little warm, but everything else is fantastic. I have come here on a couple of occasions with my coworkers and every time all our plates have been licked clean. The price is right too, I always get empanadas and another one of their appetizers... $2 each! They have daily specials which always look good and my coworkers have always enjoyed their main dishes. The staff is very welcoming but can be a little slow with the bill. Last time I was here out bill was $50 for7 people! read more

I came here for a birthday and the food was pretty good. We ordered the appetizer sampler and everything on it was so good, especially the mini tostada. For my entree, I got the Pollo Pibil. This dish was so good. It has a comfort food feel, the meat was tender, and the sauce was really good with the rice. Tip: Order the watermelon juice, it's amazing! Overall, I would definitely come back here if I was in the city. read more

When a friend first told me the name of this place, i thought she meant to say "pork chop" but u no....she really meant to say Poc Chuc. lol Anyways, had the Pescado Frito and she had the grilled carne asada. My tilapia fish was off the bones! nice, crispy skin, very meaty/fleshy fish so it absorbed the lime very well. wrapped it in the homemade tortillas that they give you along with the black bean puree and cabbage. The rice steamed in vegetable bouillion is a super nice touch. After my meal, i felt like i was a Mayan myself. great stuff, will want to go back to try other stuff on the menu. the grilled carne asada was fairly tasty itself. they might want to consider cooking it to a medium doneness since it is flank steak so not having any marble fat will make it fairly chewy. the taste was awesome though and you can get the marinade in each bite. There is a downfall though...BYOB however no corkage fee. Atleast you know you can bring your own hooch and get down with it... read more

So I've been here a few times - and if I'd written a review after my first couple of visits, I might have given it three stars. However, after my most recent visit last week, I have dropped them down to two stars. Here's the lowdown on this place: The Good: The Platillo Maya is a great deal. You get a bunch of little appetizers. ten bucks - most of the appetizers are good. The salsa that comes with it is really really good. I just wish you got more than the tiny little ramekin that it comes in. The decor is frightful, but good for conversation. Not usually a wait. The bad: The service. The people here are very nice and friendly, but not so competent. I came in with my husband and my daughter. There was one other customer in the place. The waitress (owner?) was sweeping when we walked in. She saw us and kept sweeping. Our waitress kept herself busy talking to other employees, so we had to wave furiously for extra plates, tortillas, salsa, etc. I could completely understand if the place was busy, but there were only two tables. Also, if this place had taqueria prices, I would be okay with taqueria service, but lots of the entrees are twelve bucks, so this type of service is not okay. If I'm paying 12 bucks for a plate of chicken mole, I shouldn't have to wait forever to get a fork so I can eat, nawmean? The ugly: When I walked back to the bathroom, I experienced two moments of supreme ugliness that I wouldn't even expect in a taqueria. Don't get me wrong - I love taquerias. But they don't charge you eight bucks for salty salad (wtf - who puts salt all over a salad. ew.) But anyhoo, back to the moments of ugliness, as I made my way to the restroom, I noticed that the owner had not finished sweeping. She had left, right in plain sight in the dining room, a pile of swept up dirt and hair and food. gross. Then, someone had left out a bucket of super extra strong smelling cleaning product (it smelled like a whole silo of Strawberry windex) with a dirty rag hanging out of it, sitting out. It was right over the stove area, and right where you have to walk to get to the bathroom. It made me sneeze and it was just, well, wrong. Hence, Poc Chuc, you get two stars. I may come back, but most likely not. Not sure where else to go for good mole, but I'll be on the lookout. read more

Two words: Pollo Pibil. OK, 2 more: cochinita (pork) pibil. The whole fried fish is yummy. Not as wild about the turkey mole, but with the pibils, who cares? Don't get the mole (it isn't bad mole, it just isn't brilliant mole), get the pibil. Mmmm, pibil..... They have delicious watermelon aqua fresca and horchata. read more

This place is delish!! HUGE PORTIONS! The guacamole is good. The black bean puree - I drank like it was soup. The pork and chicken also good. Very tasty hole in the wall. read more

We came here with friends, and the restaurant has a pleasant cute-casual vibe to it. We started with the Platillo Maya sampler appetizers, of which the tacos and tostadas were my favorites. From there it was on to the house-specialty Poc Chu for me (grilled, thin-sliced citrus marinated pork), which was good, but a bit on the dry side. My girlfriend had the Camarones al Ajillo (garlic Tiger prawns) which she liked, but wasn't blown away by. They don't serve alcohol, and the service was just OK (example: we weren't offered desert, they just brought the check(s) when the plates were cleared). A perfectly nice dinner, but nothing special enough to warrant a higher rating. Also, they used to have a website with an on-line menu and reservation system, but that's gone now. read more

Let me first say that I'm not a big fan of Mexican, excuse me, Mayan Food. I tried the watermelon drink and that was yum. Makes you feel good drinking something that comes from fruit rather than soda...but it's probably loaded with sugar and just as bad. I started off with an appetizer. Some sort of soft fried tortilla topped with meat, cheese, lettuce and avocado. Very cute and delicious. As my entree, I ordered a shrimp and chicken taco. Both good. The chips served seemed like they were freshly fried and served...nice. And the sauces that accompanied them were both mild and SUPER SUPER PICANTE! Interior TRIED to look nice, but the lack of life in the restaurant made it seem so dead and slow. I've tried it twice...and I think that's enough. Back to CHA CHA CHA~~!!!!!! or Mission Chinese Food. Such great places to get fat in the Mission~!!!!!! haha read more

After reading all the rave reviews, we had to try it and I must say Poc Chuc lived up to all the hype, but let me explain why... First, don't go in expecting to get a 5 star meal. Honestly, I would rate the food a 3 because it's good and I enjoyed it, but I can't say there was anything I ate that was so superb I would return specifically for it. We had the Poc Chuc pork (delicious, but I felt the tortillas overshadowed the flavor), the plantains (perfectly fried), and the Platilla Maya appetizer platter as everyone recommended. We thoroughly enjoyed it, however, how innovative can you be with tortillas, beans and rice? There's only so much you can do with that. That said, it's clear they use good ingredients and take care when preparing the dishes. What pushed my rating over to a 4 was the outstanding service and the price, in combination with good, solid food. The waiter explained everything on the menu and made solid recommendations. He was very friendly and attentive. They also have nice, red wine glasses that he promptly brought over for the bottle of wine we brought. And most of all, we had more than enough food and walked out of there for $32 for the two of us. It was well worth the price and a place I would return to if I were in the area and wanted something good and solid. Will I make a special trip back? I don't know. Maybe. My boyfriend sure loved it and he's pretty critical. But I do recommend it as a fun, relatively inexpensive place to eat, where service and quality are taken seriously. read more

Always satisfying, nice people, and sometimes there's a bad-ass guitar player who takes requests. I would ignore some of the other reviews calling this a "working class" restaurant (as if that is a bad thing) but if you're looking for a fast-food style Chipotle experience this will not be your place. If you enjoy good food, are relaxed/casual, and like actually conversing with your dinnermates you will have a good time. read more

I was looking for a fun and unique spot for my birthday dinner, and Poc Chuc delivered on all counts--fabulous food, wonderful service, and a truly unique dining experience. The restaurant is in a very nondescript building and is a bit off the beaten path, though it was easily accessible for all of us. The East Bay crew BARTed, since it's just a few short blocks from the 16th and Mission station, and the rest of us found free street parking with ease nearby. Big perks included the ability for us to bring our own wine without paying a corkage fee and our own dessert. The food was amazing, especially the pork and steak. The fresh corn tortillas are to die for! Our party of 12 started off with two orders of the fried plantains and the platillo maya. Everyone then ordered an entree. Half our group decided to eat family style, so we could enjoy a bit of everything. The signature Poc Chuc and Carne Asade received especially rave reviews. The service was very friendly, attentive, and extremely accommodating. They even let us store the fabulous ice cream cake from the Bi-Rite Creamery (another gem in the Mission) in their freezer while we enjoyed dinner. Ironically, there were at least two other groups also celebrating birthdays that night. I guess Capricorns tend to think alike and enjoy exceptionally unique and affordable dining experiences in quaint surroundings! read more

Great place if you craving for traditional Yucatan food Family owned businesses make this restaurant very good and special. The food absolutely good and the service is also. I came her for many years and I never disappointed. Come and enjoy their food. read more

See all

The first time I had traditionally mayan food was in Playa del Carmen, by Cancun. At a really fancy place! This place is better. This is my favorite restaurant in the city. Hands down. Huge portions, reasonably priced, and run by a wonderful family. Get the Poc-Chuc!! Enough that my boyfriend gets stuffed, and he's 6'3. Casual atmosphere, delicious food. read more

I ate again at this unique San Francisco Mission area joint. Weirdness/funk vibe gets not 5 stars but maybe 2 stars at best. Weird is OK, but it is a simple matter to present a check at the end of service for the diner to pay either the server or the cashier. You just need to inform the diner what is expected. On 2 visits I finished my meal and sat for 15 minutes offered no tab nor told how to pay (at the counter at front, by the way, if you can get the woman there off her phone). If the food was excellent, the service could be overlooked, but it is not. It's only good. Give it a try if you like funky, but don't expect anything like common service standards. read more

Solid sit down Mexican, they claim it's Mayan but I don't know the difference. Our friend from Amsterdam enjoyed it and it was her second time having Mexican before she had to head home. I recommend the Guacamole and Carne Asada but can't recommend the Appetizer Sampler. I'd probably give it a 3.5 if I could give half points. read more

Quite lovely! :) - said in a British accent...or whatever that voice is in my head I came here with a friend for lunch this past weekend - as well as a sore tummy. Yup, wasn't sure if the food would sit well with my upset stomach, but it did. The friendly waitstaff recommended a couple dishes which were basically the same thing but different meat. We both had a braised, slow cooked meat - chicken and pork for me. Tomato type sauce over it with a mound of rice. Delicious and gentle on my tummy. Typically, I may have wanted a little more spice but it was perfect for that day. The side of beans and tortilla completed the meal. Good, hearty, tasty, fresh meal for $10. The platter of plantains were delish - with a side of sour cream and greens. Good starter - but next time, I'll prob try of of the many other starters. There is even a starter plate which I wouldn't mind getting next time given that I thrive on variety. Oh and to top it off the aguas frescas was yummy. Really hydrated me and almost made me forget about my tummy ache. Overall, nice pleasant service, solid food and reasonable prices. I just wish it was closer to my 'hood or on the other side of Mission St. :( read more

Yummy Mayan food, that's good any day! Except Wednesday. They're closed. But come in any OTHER day and enjoy tasty and different takes on Mexican, including a variety of flavorful meat dishes, 5 different cornmeal-based taco-oid bites topped with pickled onion and cabbage, and some superspicy habanero salsa to slap on it all. Washed down with the creamiest Horchata I've ever laid lips on, it's a precolombian Mexican fiesta. The restaurant's namesake, Poc Chuc, is a juicy marinated slab of pork grilled to perfection; the pato is a duck dish minus all the skin/fat/bones that normally put me off to the quacky poultry. The staff are very attentive and friendly, in fact, the waitress took our photo for "el album," which I hope ends up on the wall somewhere. read more

Definitely my new favorite place to eat. Food quality is comparable to Lolo, just less fancy, less expensive, and bigger portions. The pork taco was divine, with so much shredded pork shoulder that I took it out and shared with my friends. The taco de camarones - shrimp - was also divine and heaped high with delicious buttery rice. Their tortillas are off the chain with plumpness and softness. Salsa is flavorful and hot. Everything was great. BYOB!!! read more

Finally made it to Poc Chuc! I walk by here about twice a week on my way to BART from Mission Cliffs. Usually there is a decent crowd here on Tues/Thurs nights and because of the rave reviews it has received on Yelp, it has been on my list! Rounded up the climbing crew to dine here tonight (a Tues evening). We were able to get a table for 7 of us, no problem. The restaurant has a very home-style feel to it and we soon learned that the food did also! We split two platillo mayas (basically an appetizer sampler plate)--this was good, but watch out for the spicy sauce! It's got a kick to it. We all had a horchata, tamarindo or jamaica drink. Must say, the horchata was quite refreshing. I was pleased with my pollo pibil dish and everyone else seemed to like their entrees as well. The chicken on my dish flaked off of the bone and was very tasty. Service was pretty solid as well. And to top it off the owner's son yelled "Byeeeeeeee!" when we left. A very satisfying visit. read more

I'm meeting my partner at this place, and he tells me the address. I half think he's kidding. Um, you want to eat at a car dealer? Or the gas station? Either way, I'm not interested. But, he sent me the review on Yelp (back in the Chichen Itza days), and it sounded like it was worth a shot. No matter the name, you get some pretty good food. It's not just another spiffed up taqueria, they make real food. Quality food just like my mom would have made, if my mom weren't a Jewish mother from Chicago, but rather a friendly Mayan restauranteur. read more

Went here for a friend's Birthday after our initial place, the Cheesecake Factory, had a waiting time of 3.5 hours. Um...we'll pass, thanks. Then again, the location is tourist central: in Union Square on top of Macy's. Definitely not making that mistake again. Small little place that serves yummy Yucatan food. Plates are pretty big, and I definitely recommend doing it family style with a group of friends: 3-4 plates with 5 people, and you're pretty much golden there. read more

POC CHUC... I love this name!!! I can say it over and over again... POC... CHUC... I wish I could say the same for the food... We ordered the Poc Chuc, of course, Grilled citrus marinated pork, served with vegetable-bouillon rice, topped with grilled tomatoes and red onions and a side of black bean puree. Carne Asada/Grilled Flank Steak. Flat meat served with vegetable-bouillon rice and lemon marinated cabbage, sliced fresh tomatoes and pickled red onions. Platillo Maya Combo - Panucho: Hand made tortilla filled with black bean puree, slightly fried, topped with shredded turkey, lemon marinated cabbage, pickled red onions and avocado, sprinkled with ground black pepper Salbute: Hand made tortilla puff, slightly fried, topped with shredded turkey, lemon marinated cabbage, pickled red onions and avocado, sprinkled with ground black pepper Empanadas: Half folded hand made tortilla stuffed with ground pork, served on a bed of black bean puree and tomato/onion sauce Tostada: Crisp corn tortilla topped with black bean puree and queso fresco Kotzito: Crisp taco covered with tomato/onion sauce and queso fresco All pretty tasty, but a little on the bland side for my taste. I haven't had a whole lot of Mayan food, but I definitely had to add a little extra seasoning. I definitely did like the black bean puree. So not being a Mayan food connoisseur maybe it might not be the best review, but I am sticking to it!!! Ai ya yai - arriba!!! read more

In one word, fresh. And you can't make up for that with any amount of spices or flavors. Really fresh guacamole and salsas. Aguas frescas are just the right amount of sweet, and they all taste freshly squeezed. The pork in the Poc Chuc (their signature dish) is marinated and grilled to perfection. Hot corn tortillas, fresh. Tortilla chips, freshly fried. Black bean sauce, rice cooked in vegetable bouillon, and fresh grilled veggies. The Pibil was tender, juicy, but the Poc Chuc is my go-to. read more

Really like this place! Chips and salsa were good, definitely a refreshing step away from standard taqueria fare. Got the trio tostada for the appetizer, which was fresh but perhaps nothing to write home about, especially considering the size of it for $6. I got the poc-chuc, which was extremely flavorful and tender. Girlfriend got the pato a la naranja, which was tender, juicy, tangy, and great. Black bean puree for a side was great. It all came with a large amount of food, which was much appreciated. Overall, this is a great spot to come and get an easy table, have an honest, delicious meal for a good price, and escape the craziness of the Mission dining scene. Definitely want to come back here as soon as possible. read more

Fantastic in every way. I had the Poc Chuc entree and it was killer. It's only one day later and I'm considering going back for dinner.

A hole in the wall type of place!! Dont judge by its location because this place is WORTH MY MONEY!!!! Everything is made fresh! The food tastes like someone's Mom made this for you! Have been coming here for years!! read more

I've been meaning to try this place out for a while, and was so glad that I finally did. This place is the real deal! We had the plantains and poc chuc. Both were fantastic. Excellent and genuine service Well seasoned food Handmade tortillas Generous portions Oh and dessert was .... well, just go and find out for your self. you won't be disappointed! read more

The homemade tortillas one word: wow! They were so delicious. The salsa they give you with your chips was some of the best I've had. Not too spicy. I also had the horchata which was so yummy and especially sweet. The only reason I didn't give them five stars is that they had Disney Channel playing on a big tv and it was so distracting and pretty annoying. read more
