My new favorite Mexican place in Pacifica. Great location, great food, nice price. This place serves Mexican food and rotisserie chicken which is Peruvian style. We ordered chicken nacho. It may be the best nacho I ever had. Because this place used the rotisserie chicken, the chicken was really Smokey and tasty. Nacho chips were thic and crisp went great w nacho toppings. Big portion. Glad we shared one nacho for 2. It filled our stomachs well. I definitely come here again. read more

Delicious Mexican food. Everything they serve is organic and although they're a little pricey the old saying you get what you pay for definitely applies in this case. The staff is also friendly. Of note they currently don't have any indoor seating due to covid and the outdoor seating it's not all that great might want to just order the food as take out read more

Wanted to try some local places in Pacifica We were more interested into the local Mexican food . so we found this place. since we are vegetarian, what we ordered? they helped us to customize everything. Vegetarian chile Relleno: it was really good. we all loved it. Amazing dish. Taco plate: it was okay okay I would prefer okay to skip kind of thing. Nachos: quantity wise it was too much. you shoild count as one full meal for a person. we thought it would be aide dish. Burrito: I am a burrito fan but it was not good as I was expecting. Enchilada: I didn't not like their sauce it was too sweet. feels like eating sweet enchiladas as a Mexican food lover I would say it was okay okay kind of places but I will come again for Vegetarian chile Relleno and Nachos. read more

The burritos here are JAM-PACKED with delicious ingredients. I particularly enjoyed the tomato tortilla, as it added a unique flavor. I ordered ahead online, but when I entered the store, the staff was very helpful and kind, and the order was ready promptly. The restaurant has good seating options, but it's also very close to the coast for a meal to watch the sun set! read more

This vegetarian friendly taqueria also has great seafood. The fresh fish taco was *perfect* and this is due to the fact that they have a flat top and actual grill smoking and ready for your order. This is a local gem in the strip mall. Support indie restaurants like this! Complaint: Dear owner, you gotta keep this place spotless. The bathroom could be more clean. read more

The Green Enchilada - Their fresh fish taco is as advertised. Actually *fresh* and grilled to perfection. - Mexican Near Me - Pacifica, California

I was in the area and had read about this place and wanted to give it a try. The enchilada was cold and I could not get back up to take it in to ask him to reheat it. I was eating outside. The rice tasted funky. The beans were fine, the salad was fine, some chips would have been nice. I was very disappointed though. Maybe I just went on an off day read more

This is my all time favorite burrito spot! The staff is super friendly and the owner is genuinely humble and kind. The chips are amazing and the salsa is so good. Im in love with the spinach tortilla that they offer. So healthier! They're so easy and quick when it comes to online ordering. Get in and get out with the best burritos! Definitely suggest giving it a try and prepare to be addicted just like how I am. read more

This is our go to Mexican spot! Everything is made with the healthiest of ingredients (natural meats, organic, etc). During shelter in place they're doing to go orders or you can sit outside! Pro-tip: order to go and walk to the cliff a block away and enjoy your meal outside! read more

I stopped by The Green Enchilada a couple of months ago with my friend for dinner. (Keep in mind that this was amidst the COVID pandemic, so the restaurant was good about offering takeout options.) I wanted to try a new Mexican restaurant, hence I suggested coming here to try the food. My friend really enjoyed his enchiladas, which he ordered with mole sauce. (In his words, the food was heavy, yet so delicious, that he could pass out in my car from a food coma.) Meanwhile, I thought the Ensalada Pacifica I ordered was so-so. Not that it didn't taste good, but I felt as if this was something I could have made at home for cheaper. Regardless, the food here wasn't terrible, and I appreciate the restaurant's values in serving healthy, fresh Mexican food in the Bay Area. read more

If you are looking for fresh, organic, and sustainable Mexican food, give this a go. A basic enchilada w/ sauce costs only $2.00, but if you want to add toppings (i.e. salsa), it's an additional $4.50 for 6oz. The enchilada I got had nice and mild flavors and doesn't leave you feeling heavy like most Mexican food does. One thing to note is that this place has outdoor seating only. As for takeout, I would recommend ordering online because the dial-in option went straight to voicemail. read more

I really wanted to like it here. The place had good reviews and prides itself on being organic. So we decided to step outside our Chipotle comfort zone to give it a try...still searching for keto friendly local restaurants. The place isn't the cleanest and the workers looked pissed, but it didn't bother me too much. These are the characteristics of my favorite hole in the wall eateries. At 5:30pm, the place was semi full with early dinner patrons. I ordered the carne asada burrito bowl, no rice, no beans, add guac, add sour cream, add cheese. The husband ordered the same with carnitas and a grilled shrimp tostada. First bites were good, but after awhile I was eating just to eat. I suddenly started missing my friends at Chipotle. The shrimp was aight, a bit on the salty side. I liked their pico de gallo better than Chipotle. It was super fresh! read more

Like my dad use to say the food always looks good in the pictures compared to when you get it. The food was just not to anyones liking out of 6 people. The shrimp burrito was just "nasty" shrimp tasted funny and rice wasn't even cooked all the way not in just 1 burrito but 2. The chile relleno burrito was also disappointing, the chile was still raw not cooked to be soft at all and just takes over the burrito. Steak meat in the tacos were over cooked. Myself and others who ordered along with me all agreed we wouldnt try this place again, oh did i mention this was our first time ordering......first impressions are always important, right? What a waste of time, food, and money!! read more

The Green Enchilada - thats how much of that $17 shrimp burrito got eaten b4 it went to trash.As you can see we all shared and finished a bag of doritos though! - Mexican Near Me - Pacifica, California

Excellent organic, healthy Mexican food. Everyone is friendly and efficient, and the food is always fresh and delicious. I highly recommend atheist Green Enchilada! read more

They make awesome salads. The taco salad is a bomb with crispy taco shell, Mexican rice, beans, cheese, sour cream, guacamole. It ends up not being healthy after all, but it's hella yummy. We tried enchilada with mole and ensalada Pacifica, they're both delicious too. The chips they gave you is home made, a little bit thicker yet crispy. read more

Nine dollars for a guacamole look and taste like green peas They are so stingy, in my burrito bowl, I can't find tomato , cilantro or any green A baby burrito really really feed a baby only The price it's not a baby price Bottom line , after the new owner is not the same anymore read more

We ordered pick up from the restaurant and got 2 super tacos, 1 Peruvian burrito and 1 carnitas burrito. The carnitas burrito was super boring, the meat was like shredded pork. The meat was all stuffed in one end and the rest was beans and rice and onions. The Peruvian burrito was filled with chunks of fat on the Al pastor. The tacos were more like just filling smothering a tortilla. When we arrived to pick it up the music was so loud you couldn't hear the person beside you say a word. At $8 a taco and $13 for a burrito - you can definitely do better anywhere else. read more

Wanted to support a small business during this time of shelter in place- saw they had a special on GrubHub - so went for it. Currently trying to eat clean and saw they are clean and organic. DID not disappoint. - Originally ordered a whole rotisserie chicken meal, but very shortly after ordering I received a call that the only had 1/2 rotisserie left - so we went for that and asked them to give me something else to fulfill with a salad . Super helpful. Grub hub delivery was so fast, food was warm. All the sauces they added were DELICIOUS. Returned again on Tuesday to order to go because we loved it that much. - Hope they get the support they need during this time read more

Awful worse burrito I ever had, put this paste like stuff in it...save your money don't eat there

I found this place via yelp and thought of giving it a try and help the local business. I didn't have way too much expectation and decent food would have still earned 4 stars from me. To my surprise the food here is so good. Tried their Peruvian burrito and it is excellent. Choosing side of tacos was a good decision which came out with some amazing flavor. Tip: get food Togo and right behind the restaurant, you can park your car and enjoy the beach/sunset. read more

I'm posting this to remind myself why I stopped coming to Green Enchilada the first time. First, they ran out of the rotisserie chicken AGAIN!!! I'm pretty much forced to go with their Mexican Food options and they are kinda average Mexican Food for the price. Part of me wanted to leave then but my husband was jonesing for Mexican food and was hungry. Why are you always out of it? Take it off the main menu and put it as a Special!!! The sad part, they originally had really good guacamole, but since then they have changed their guacamole recipe and now it's blah... And please PLEASE train your staff on the menu so they don't waste 5 minutes of my time trying to get ONE order onto the computer, which turns out to be the rotisserie chicken I wanted that they are out of!!! The guy punched in the WRONG order!!! I didn't give them a 1 Star b/c their food was tolerable and it does look like decent ingredients went in there. Sorry, Green Enchilada!!! I gave you a second chance and you disappointed me!!! This Yelp is my reminder why NOT to come here again! For the rest of you gentle readers, drive towards McDonald's to La Perla!! MUCH MUCH better and cheaper than Green Enchilada for Mexican Food!!! Spend the $$$$$ at Limon for rotisserie chicken if you want Peruvian rotisserie chicken (or roast your own...) Green Enchilada is constantly out of it anyway so... read more

I have never been here to The Green Enchilada and I have lived in Pacifica for over 10 years. I love that they have a few Vegan options! I ordered the Ensalada Pacifica and that came with: No feta Mixed Greens Papaya Mango Cucumber Tomato Avocado Added: Tofu and I think it was supposed to come with black beans but it didn't. That would have been REALLY really good. The beans and rice are Vegan friendly as well. The rice was nice and fluffy and not dry at all. I enjoyed the salad and the rice. Looking forward to eating their again! Pacifica needs more Vegan friendly places! read more

Chicken Fajita Burrito. A couple of their spicy red sauce on the side. Boom. Now you know.

This place has the beat vegan burrito around hands down !! We get the "vegetarian veg-out" burrito with black beans, Spanish rice, and add in some GARLIC FRIES just to make it exxxtra dirty. This time they hooked it up with the biggest burrito I've ever seen, thankfully I was splitting it with my husband so don't worry --none of it went to waste! Also they have a loyalty program, so I mean just saying.... 20/10 recommend this place for omnivores and vegans alike! Quick service and an awesome staff! Definitely stop in here if your looking for a quick and tasty bite you will not regret it! read more

Twice in a row they gave us a completely incorrect order. Once thru pickup and once thru Grubhub delivery. When food is correct, it's good. Otherwise it's just an expensive bummer. read more

Skip this place. Ordered a carnita fajita burrito with green salsa and cheese. Entirely bland, loaded with plain instant rice and they did not put the salsa on that I paid extra for. The carnita meat had an off putting cinnamon taste and had no crisp to it. Any other Mexican restaurant would be better than this place. read more

Huge portions. Peruvian Fusion Fusion Burrito is Lomo Saltado in a flour tortilla. I recommend this burrito if you swing by. It's a bit different than most of the typical taqueria burritos and it has a ton of steak (you can also get with chicken, al pastor, etc.) read more

Excellent food! Many vegan options. My favorite is the Peruvian Fusion Burrito with tofu. The meat stuff is excellent too, or so my carnivorous friends tell me. Great web site! Makes ordering and paying very easy. They bring the food out to your car with a mask on. Very considerate. read more

We popped in here for a quick bite after the dog Surf Competition. I checked in on yelp, and they are offering $3 off a chicken entree with check in. They also offer a free Agua Fresca when you like them on FB. The food was good- but the service was very militant. It reminded me of the soup nazi episode on Seinfeld. 4 of us went in together, you order at the register, and they call out your food when it's ready. I ordered the veggies burrito, the cashier was asking what kind of tortilla I wanted, I asked what the choices were- he rambled them off super fast. I had no idea what he said. I asked him to repeat it, he rolled his eyes, and said it even faster. I thought I heard the word spinach- so I asked for that. Then he asked what kind of beans. I asked what my choices were, again with the rapid fire responses. I felt rushed and stressed placing my order. He was the same way with my friend when she ordered a quesadilla. I guess we should be grateful he let us have food... The restroom was not tidy, and was lacking toilet paper. My friend who ordered first, leaned over me when I was ordering to let him know they were out of TP. He couldn't have cared less. We went to check and see if it had been restocked after we ate. No surprise- it hadn't. Next time we are in the area- we will go to the pizza place next door. Plenty of parking. A new brewery just opened up in the same parking lot. Looking forward to trying Pedro Point read more

Al Sada (pork) Quesadilla was very flavorful and delicious . No line and not a long wait for the food to be done. Great portions

Absolutely love this place. It has changed owners so if you went back when it first opened, don't go by your previous experience. The ingredients are fresh, organic, made with care and super tasty. I happen to be partial to the tofu burrito because I am vegetarian but can't handle beans. I would rank their tofu burrito among the very best and I have tried many. They marinate the tofu in something and then grill it to order. Simply amazing. Finally, Pacifica has an awesome eatery! Try it, you won't be disappointed. read more

7/15/17: AMAZING !!! Had the Ensalada Pacifica and added salmon to it. The salmon was cooked to perfection, juicy,tender and a slight crisp on the skin. The salad ingredients were extremely fresh (mango,papaya. Avocado etc) ! You have to try it yourself ! Also had a mango/strawberry Agua Fresca which you can tell was freshly homemade, it was a perfect blend! It was not overly sweet but not diluted! I was beyond impressed! I will definitely be coming back as a regular customer:) p.s the customer service was definitely a bonus, all staff members were super friendly and caring! read more

Loved this place!! We all got the meaty fries with half Chicken and half meat. It was delicious!!! I loved how attentive they were. I definitely recommend this place. You can buy food to-go and head to the beach. They had outdoor dining, we ate our food outside. We also ordered Churros with chocolate dipping to go :) read more

Had the carnitas quesadilla and it was AMAZING! The meat was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The fresh pico that came with it was also phenomenal. The service was EXCELLENT as well! If we didn't live out of state this would be a regular spot for us for sure! read more

This is a really great the business model that this restaurant has. I wish they were bigger and had indoor seating. I can't think of another authentic Mexican organic restaurant in the inner Bay Area. There is one in the mission that is vegan that I know of. I've eaten here several times and just need to remember to read the menu carefully and be sure to ask for the extras (if you get a burrito). I will continue to go here when me and my daughter go for walks in Pacifica. read more

The past 2 times I came here I ordered Steak items and they gave me chicken. Nice place if you want chicken, not for steak though apparently. read more

Delicious & friendly environment. My girlfriend and I were in the area picking up a few things and we decided to go to the green enchilada for a quick bite to eat. The customer service was great, but the food was absolutely amazing. The ingredients were fresh and organic. I will definitely be going here again. read more

Dropped by this restaurant after a hike. As vegetarians, we were delighted to see the variety of options on the menu! They had two outdoor tables for dining. We ordered Grilled Vegetable Enchiladas with Green and Red Sauce and Vegetable Chilaquile. Both were delicious! Cannot wait to come back and try more items! read more
