The best Mexican food I have experienced outside of Mexico. I have traveled to Mexico extensively and this place takes me back there. So yourself a favor and eat here when visiting San Francisco. The cocktails are excellent as well.... the best margaritas I've had in a very long time.

We go early, so the service is especially fast. I could live on the nachos. We had a family gathering of eight people about a months ago and every dish ordered was excellent. Really a sports Mexican place (TVs everywhere) but you can turn that off visually - I do and just eat those nachos!

Good comfort food in a nice big space. Mole Burrito was good but not as much as Vive Sol. Margarita was not that strong. Service was good. The played quiet music making it suitable to talk.
