**Vegetarian Friendly** The beans are vegetarian...WOOHOO! Stopped in for a snack, and ordered a big plate of Nachos. The toppings were great, and enjoyed the flavor and taste of the beans. There are very specific vegetarian items on the menu, which I appreciate. I'm sure the rest of the vegetarian menu are equally good, and look forward to tasting more. read more

The food was delicious and filling, the decor was bright and fun, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Parking wasn't too bad, either! I ordered the quesabirria (three corn tortillas fried with beef and cheese inside and a side of beef broth)- wow!! I will be dreaming about it over the next week... I wasn't sure if I'd get filled up in the quesabirria, so I also ordered the baja fish taco- a big chunk of fried with with slaw on two corn tortillas. I ended up breaking the fish in two and split the filling between the two corn tortillas (now I have two fish tacos (-;). I think the quesabirria would've been enough, but I'm glad I got to try their tasty fish taco. :-) I will definitely be returning! read more

I like savory food for brunch. After our disappointing encounter at Jane, hubby wanted to get me a sandwich from mollie stone. On our way over there, we walked by tacobar with cute outside tables, so I asked if he's interested in tacos instead. Of course, whatever you want, honey, he replied. The ordering was efficient and friendly. The cashier even reminded my hubby to pull his mask up as his new mask is not fitting correctly. She also wiped our table before we sat down. Very much appreciate the good service and yes we tipped her. I ordered the Baja shrimp taco and the carne asada taco. Both delicious and I also like the watermelon aqua Fresca. Hubby ordered the carnitas bowl. He thought it was delicious. Great brunch, friendly service, delicious food. read more

The service is SPEEDY and soo friendly. The size of the fish is massive, with the second tortilla it's basically a two for one. I devour it every time I'm in the neighborhood. read more

The food is good but I wouldn't call it authentic Mexican. It's quick, easy and delicious. My only complaint is that my order has been messed up a few times. It was still delicious but not what I ordered. Be clear and specific with your orders. read more

Food is okay but don't waste time ordering for curbside pickup. I did and then let them know I was there waiting through their app. Then, after sitting and waiting for what seemed far too long, had to go in and pick it up myself. The young woman handed me the bag with no explanation. read more

I have a soft spot for Taco Bar. My go-to order are the nachos with carne asada or chicken - extra pickled jalapeños - and their signature lime margarita on the rocks with salt. It's on Fillmore street so understandably the prices are higher and they charge extra for most add-ons (ie. Sour cream, cheese, guacamole, chips and salsa), but they do offer complimentary green or red salsa with every order. I miss the pre-Covid days of when the condiments were in squeeze tubes - now the complimentary salsas are in tiny cups. I also love ordering the shrimp quesadilla - I'll always add in sour cream - and the burrito bowl with either carne asada or chicken. read more

Niece: Are you hungry? Me: You must be hungry because you're asking me if I am. Niece: (rolls her eyes) Walking in Pac Heights with a teenage niece can be both a blessing and a curse. She wants to walk into all the clothing boutiques, watch you try on jewelry, and go into all of the makeup stores. But when she gets hungry, it's over. You better feed her or else you'll feel the wrath by hearing all the sarcastic sighs coming from her mouth. Oh and watch out because you'll be victim to her saying "Can we go now please? I think you're done." ----repeatedly. Alert, Alert, it's time to get her grub on. She catches sight of this spot and says she wants Mexican food. I quickly check the Yelp app and see that the reviews are not that great. But given that she's hungry and wants food 'now' I didn't bother to look for other options. She ordered 2 Carne Asada tacos and they came out quickly. Once she was seated, she took her first bite and a slow crack of a smile spread across her mouth. Her first words were "Auntie Lorie, mmmmmm.. it's really good. Taste this meat!" At this point, I'm slightly shocked because she rarely ever says this. She's such a picky eater and I kept thinking to myself what's so special about this meat? I tried a piece and I nodded in agreement. The carne asada meat was tender, seasoned nicely and tasty. When I took a bite of the taco, it wasn't just good, it was really good. The beans and fresh salsa were perfect together. Since her parents were coming to meet us, I ordered a plate of Nachos as well and we all agreed that they were amazing. With a huge helping of guacamole, generous squirt of sour cream, additional salsa, melted cheese and chips, we wiped that plate clean. read more

TacoBar - Menu on wall - Mexican Near Me - San Francisco, California

Great Mexican restaurant on Fillmore near my church, so I come here for lunch often. There is no free chips here like the taquerias in the Mission, but there is a Toast loyalty program to accumulate points for discount on food. After paying today, I was surprised that it told me I have almost $5 off from the loyalty program so I used it. It'll definitely cause me to want to come here more often than going to the other Mexican restaurant on Divisadero. I also like that it's a casual paid at the counter restaurant and a lot of seating. There are 3 outdoor tables. I enjoy ordering the steak burrito and ordered it on multiple occasions, but I noticed they also have all of the other meats, fish, and shrimp options too. The steak burrito was $12.50 + SF 4% surcharge $0.53 + taxes. It came with 2 types of salsa but no mild salsa. read more

As an SF native, I've been coming here for years and they never cease to disappoint me. I know what a good burrito is. Yeah, this place isn't its mom and pop authentic burrito spot in the Mission but it sure is just as good. It may be expensive, but hello any SF restaurant is going to be pricey. As a pescatarian, shrimp burrito is soo good it hits the spot. You won't regret adding guac and sour cream. Gives the burrito that extra juicy moist flavor but won't leave your burrito soggy or tear apart. They offer three different type of sauces but their green sauce is my absolute favorite. It's like the next La Vic sauce. If you love meat, can't go wrong with the carne asada burrito. The size is just right and the meat is perfectly cooked and tender. Pair your burritos with a nice marg or Tecate and call it good. Employees are always friendly and nice. I love the atmosphere and the music they play . read more

Way overpriced mediocare food at best If thats what your looking for, eat here. charge extra for everything, $6 taco that have $0.75 worth of meat in a 5cent tortilla read more

Hella overpriced $5.85 a taco I bought two of each, short rib, Baja shrimp, and Veracruz fish. Short rib: sweeter and a bit dry. Lacks flavor n savoriness. Baja shrimp: bland, soggy, barely any flavor. Veracruz fish: very bland. Not dry though. The tacos were stuffed with way too much slaw, (why slaw anyway?) A lot of the fpod seemed to co taint natural and quality ingredients and it sounds and looks good on paper, but then you eat it and there's almost no complexity in flavor, let alone savory taste in it. Just overpriced and bland overall. Even the guac.. hardly any acid, salt taste, just almost taste like mayo tbh. Pretty bad. Sucks having a slaw taco that takes a huge bite to eat as well. The only things I liked were the plain chips. One star for that. Try again and redo your menu. Taste your food.. I recommend a cheaper taco trucker. Way more tastier lol. Heck even a stand would knock this place out. read more

Best tacos I've had in a while. Service; timely and caring with a welcome atmosphere. Food; fantastic food to price ratio. You get what you pay for and MORE in flavor. We got the Quesabirrias and the Veracuz Tacos. The Birria first cuz ofc. They were a smash hit. Using lamb instead of goat was an interesting choice. Side stock was so delicious we got fish tacos to use up the juices. Tried the fish on its own first tho and they also were well done, timely delivered and flavorful if grilled fish is your jazz. Overall great service again, very timely cooking and super flavorful dishes so far. Can't wait to come back! read more

Wa s a bit dubious going to taco bar with 0 people in lone compared to rest of hip Fillmore scene. At regular $6 per taco I was even more skeptical. No flour tortilla too. Even with all this it tried their Cabo fish taco. Quality fish with a nice slaw crunch. Fish taco did break apart after 1 bite... a bit more firmer on the batter to hold it together please. Nice service. read more

Got the family meal for take out, and added a Mucho Salad with chicken. Everything was SO GOOD!! Carnitas were juicy and flavorful. Salsas were bright and well-balanced. I love that the meal includes sautéed veggies (squash and nopales, I think). Portions of everything were generous -- we'll have leftovers. The churros are OUTSTANDING -- fresh, custardy in the center, good crunch (even after a 3-block walk and drive home), great cinnamon-sugar coating. Excellent value for a hungry family. read more

Simply great location for Mexican dishes. Some of the food were best and worth to try. The tacos has its own flavors. I like the Grilled shrimp quesadillas and Burrito. It was full of flavor and taste so fantastic with great portion size. The prices were reasonable however we wait a long time for our food to be served. read more

Yum. I didn't have a full meal but margaritas on a hot day? Yes please. I just loved how colorful and cute the place was, that's what really drew us to this spot on the corner. Plus, they have "taco" and "bar" in the name so... did we really need any other reason to drop by? Didn't order a taco cuz we were stuffed from the Japanese Cherry Blossom Festival, but did have some margs and a churro. Mine was pomegranate and hers was lime. They were tasty and sweet, but not strong. And usually when something's not strong, that mean it is and you'll be feeling it later. That wasn't the case here. But, still a good drink. THAT CHURRO. Ugh, was it baked fresh? So doughy in the itty bitty center and crunchy and cinnamon sugary on the outside. Nice sized churro too, it took me a minute to finish. I'll have to find a way back here to try the tacos! I mean, if you're naming your place after something it has to be good right? Maybe I'll update this when I do. read more

I like the steak burrito, carne asada if I can get it that is.... Consistently they mess up on the group orders, either writing down the wrong description of a burrito that's for someone else. Once they take a bite of it, it's hard to change it. Not once, twice but three times they have done this to our order of 8 people for work. :( Not ordering from them anymore. read more

Expensive but tasty. And the space is very clean and pleasant. Not your general dismal taqueria experiences where the food is good and the space is disgusting at worst to depressing at best. TacoBar is bright and cheery, albeit with very limited indoor seating. The quesadilla portions will easily feed two people. Plan accordingly. read more

I ordered tackos. I didnt get them. Terrible service. It's too pink. And to expensive. 15 dollars for nothing.

Great staff and great food. Since I have a gluten allergy, they let me change the breakfast burrito into a bowl with corn tortillas on the side. The guy was very friendly and made sure I had enough tortillas! It was delicious! read more

Mediocre food, heavy on the salt, barely any cheese on quesadilla, not consistant. Extremely overpriced, like insanely overpriced. Typically SF restaurant. Serve bad food but charge an arm and a leg for it read more

I love when Mexican food feels airy and light on the tummy, and TacoBar nails that really without being too greasy, cheesy and super heavy. My favs: Apart from their brilliant service and great suggestions, I loved the Veggie bowl, and among all the tacos, the fried shrimp taco was my fav followed by the chicken one. The Guac is just soo delicious and I couldn't help but eat it with almost everything, along with their salsas which were also very flavorful. I enjoyed the grilled shrimps and mango salsa of the Shrimp Bowl, but just wish that it came with less salad and a little rice instead. The Watermelon Margarita makes a perfect day drink! We ended the meal with Fresh hot Churros, which came with no dipping sauce and at first I felt it was incomplete, but after taking that first bite I realized it was just perfect as the center of the churro was soo moist and felt custardy Not my fav but could be yours: the Brekkie Burrito didn't particularly hit the spot for me. Felt like it was missing something.. Overall, I enjoyed my meal here and would love to go back for my favs! read more

Service was good and friendly, the food not so much. I ordered a al pastor super burrito that wasn't so super and a pineapple and chia water. The burrito had more beans & pineapples than rice and meat. It hardly had sour cream or guacamole, which is the reason for making it super, which was disappointing. Onelce I got a taste of the meat it was salty. On the bright side, the green salsa was good. The pineapple juice was perfect, not too watery, and not too sweet . read more

TacoBar - Pineapple and chia seed water - Mexican Near Me - San Francisco, California

PROS: Good setup for COVID, outdoor seating, safe distancing, masks, good selection of food, drinks, good service CONS: Careful ordering the Everything Nachos, the new system requires the cashier to add items to round out the order for the kitchen. You pay $3 for each added item. This is a bug. Also, they missed my order for a taco, no biggie. When I asked about it, they said I never paid, but I did pay (twice) for added items on the nachos. They gave me the taco, but blamed me for the error. Bottom line, careful ordering the everything nachos, don't pay more than the menu board. I hope I'm not banned, the nachos were tasty :=) read more

I had a fish taco and it was very tasty. I got a lot of fish and the dish come up quickly. Price is very reasonable for the meal I got. Thanks read more

Over priced mediocre Mexican food. They charge extra for everything you can think of, even chips & salsa (which they offer every time but don't tell you it's not free). To add less than half a scoop of beans to a single taco it costs more than half the price of the taco itself ($3.50)!. So many better Mexican spots in San Francisco, WITH BETTER INGREDIENTS! Don't waste your time and avoid this place if you can. Workers are nice but the owner is extremely rude & spends their time posting snarky responses to anyone's reviews that call them out on their terrible quality of food with extremely high prices. Feel free to stop by for a let down, but if you want to share your honest opinion expect a snarky response from an owner who doesn't care about the opinions of hard working people who spend their money at this shameful "Mexican" restaurant. read more

Solid selection of tacos. Everything is fresh, good portion sizes and the sauces are delicious. I've had the pastor, chicken, Baja shrimp and fish. All were well prepared, balanced and flavorful. I wish they didn't charge as much for the add ons (cheese, avocado, etc), but that would be my only gripe. Bonus points for all to go being compostable. read more

Avoid if you have shellfish allergies, but overall, service is variable. We ordered tonight from this place from a local delivery service. Like many times before, we called to let them know to be careful as I have an allergy (doctor tested, not just a preference). We had to call as the delivery service would not let us send a message to the restaurant. They have tons of shrimp on the menu and I wanted them to be careful as I ordered a cheese quesadilla and was worried that they would cook it in an area where shrimp is cooked. I called TacoBar, as I have done many times before and expected to speak to someone who would take me seriously. This time, the guy told me to " place another order" and hung up on me. I called back several times and he either took the phone of the hook or did not answer. The upshot: our food came completely cooked in shellfish. I spit the food out and fortunately did not have to use my epipen. Don't use this place if you expect them to care about allergies. read more

The food is great, The service was amazing and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I am highly recommended this restaurant. read more

The best Taco joint in San Francisco! Really low key but fantastic location. Food comes out quick. The shrimp and fish tacos OUT OF THIS WORLD! Had the tongue taco special I had today was so good it changed my life. Do not take it off the menus please. should be permanent even though I know a lot of people might not order it. Also inside feels like you are on vacation with all the colors in some beach shack. read more

This place is a little overpriced for the amount of food you receive. The quality is also on the average side. The drinks were smaller than expected. I finished my horchata drink only getting a quarter of the way through my burrito. Yes, I order a burrito at a taco place! I wouldn't recommend the burritos here. Maybe the tacos are on the better side. The service on the other hand is fast and they try to be friendly, but it gets negated when they have pushy salesman attitude. There is no WiFi and seating is a tad limited. The feeling of the place feels more of a grab and go type of feel even though I dine in. The place is clean and situated on Fillmore so lots of people walking up and down the streets to people watch if you're by yourself. Overall verdict: average Mexican restaurant so get the tacos if you don't want to be disappointed. read more

Came here to grab dinner and catch up with a friend. The first thing you'll notice is how hard this place tries to be trendy/aesthetic. The walls are pink and the chairs are yellow and stuff.

The atmosphere was very casual and the workers were very kind. read more

I came here with some coworkers for lunch and ordered the al pastor burrito. The al pastor was delicious and loaded with pineapple, and the burrito comes with rice, beans, and pico de gallo. I also ordered the horchata which was cinammony and creamy. I do wish there was cheese included in the burrito free of charge. The interior is not the largest, but enough seating area for a small group. I would definitely return to satisfy a burrito craving on fillmore! read more

TacoBar was pretty average - the Grilled Shrimp Taco was good, but I could have passed on the Veracruz Pescado Taco. We also ordered a pitcher of the fresh lime margarita (made with wine) and something was very off with the taste. Perhaps it could have been mixed more thoroughly or the ingredient proportions needed to be altered. I might give this place another try and go for the burrito next time around. read more
