30 Best Latin American Restaurants near Pacifica

“We love this place and come here every time we’re in Pacifica. There’s friendly atmosphere, outside tables, and good healthy food. We usually get a burrito- which are tasty and big, and this time we added a tamale which I really enjoyed as well. I’ve tried quite a few things here and loved them all. I’m mostly vegetarian and husband loves meat and this place is great for both of us.

Vegetarian options: Is easy to have a great vegetarian meal here. I love the veggie burrito options.“

“Ok, I got there and thought the prices were high until I got my beautiful bussin plate o food!! Wow! I could have shared my plate with 2 other ppl. This is a family own business. I could tell. Momma served me, son was finishing up his plate o food next to ne at the bar and when he was finished he went to the back to clean up, and dad made all the food at the grill. Such a warm, cozy, family atmosphere! Everyone was taken care of! ✨️ ? I ate on that French toast all day! So tasty, too!! ?

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes.“

“I am Argentine and have tried every empanada spot in the Bay Area. These are by far the most authentic empanadas I have tried outside of Argentina. The dough is homemade and fantastic, the fillings are just like I make them at home. I used to go through the work of making them at home, but after going to Chalos I don’t do that anymore. All the delicious taste without any of the kitchen clean up!! Highly recommend Chalos if you are looking for some delicious Argentine empanadas!“

“Not child friendly. The host acted like we were lepers and seated us at the farthest table with the worst view. When we asked if he could push one of the dozens of empty tables together or if we could sit at a 5 top he declined. Then he came over and asked me to move my purse from on top of the table in case they seated someone else next to us, which they never did. It seems like he could wait until it actually was needed to do so, and he never would need to do so because of the 12 other empty tables and the fact that there was only one empty seat left at ours! The food was great, the wait staff and kitchen staff were outstanding. I doubt we would go back because the host was so rude and made us feel really unwelcome. And for the record, my son has eaten at plenty of fancy restaurants. He’s mature, polite and behaves, so it’s not like he or any of us did anything to warrant this.“

“Very impressed and Edgar was awesome and super friendly.“

“Villa del Sol specialty is the Argentine asado (Argentine BBQ), I highly recommend their grill asado for two. It comes with a variety of meat, chicken, pork, sausages & sweetbread.“

“es algo bueno que hayan puesto este bakery, algo de nuestra tierra por que yo soy de ahi.❤️“

“Their pupusas are pretty tasty, the salsa and curtido as well. The older gentleman working there was nice enough, but there was a girl that didn’t respond in the slightest when I told her thank you and to have a nice day. I mean, I don’t care if she had a nice day. I was just being polite. And she didn’t even look at me throughout our interaction. Just handed me my food, with a sort of “hurry up and leave” attitude. I mean, she doesn’t have to look at me either. I know I’m hideous. I dunno, I’m from the midwest. People make eye contact and exchange niceties out there. I guess I won’t bother being polite here. No one cares anyway. Hahaha“

“La Guatemalteca offers box delivery to Central America. A few friends report their delivery services as reliable. The retail store is very small but whimsical. There are many household food items that are used in Guatemala such as salsa, ketchup, and hygiene products. I enjoy visiting“

“Muy buen ambiente y riquísima comida“

“Amazing! Succulent juicy chicken, tender flavorful rice, the tastiest beans I've ever had... I was extremely impressed with the food, waitress and clean relaxing atmosphere. A huge amount of food for under $20. Next time I'll get half to go for a second meal.“

“Such amazing and authentic food!!! Just make sure you go early for some food item sell out. FIVE STARS ⭐“

“Great food and service ! Love the ambience and variety offerings“

“todo muy rico , las pupusas están muy ricas , y la botana es todo un manjar 100% recomendado y garantizado , tienen un excelente servicio y muy buena atención al cliente 👌💯“

“This place is a little overrated, some things are good, some are not.

So the cons:

-The tortillas and chips are pretty weak. If you use cheap gmo Guerrero tortillas, it's an automatic loss of a point for me. You have la Palma tortillas around the corner, La Finca and Mi Rancho close by. So, for what they charge for tacos, they should be handmade, but good quality at minimum. They can work on the chips, too.

-Fish tacos were alright. Nothing memorable, but a nice portion. Better tortillas and more veggies, please.

-They dont have a happy hour. While everyone has happy hours, they don't, so I'd rather go elsewhere during these times.

-Many things are overpriced. $3.50 for oysters. Come one, this is not a waterfront location.

-Service was ok, nice people but understaffed. The host was my server, my bar tender, and my chef. Didn't check on me the entire meal and only one other other table ordering food. Only one other guy in the back washing dishes.

The pros:

-Great Micheladas! Super solid! 👌🏽
-Nice people

My family is coastal Pacific Mexican, so my standards are high. I wouldn't call this an authentic experience, but it is as close as it gets in the mission.

This place is newish, so it still needs a little work. The demand is there, and I wish them the best. I'll come again and try other things from their menu.“

“Not many places are like this one, one of a kind. 10/10. My mother who is a very picky eater had and amazing time here. She loved the food and the service. The waiter was very nice and polite , he told us about the rich history this restaurant has. I was just blown away on how good the food was, because it seem like a small place and maybe it wouldn't live up to the hype my friends told me about. Thank you so much for a good experience. 100% would recommendGuys just go try it!!!“

“there ceviche is to die for, it's delicious.“

“I've worked with BTB and Feda many times now and I'm never disappointed. Excellent variety to fit all dietary restrictions. Flavorful, nutritious options. And super communicative, clear, and easy to work with. I'd recco Beyond the Border to anyone planning a casual, fun event.“

Everyone had fun with the delicious, fun choices and all the meals were scrumptious. The lovely man who delivered the food was so sweet and helpful, and I hope you take my advice and use this company!! :)“

“Small place, felt very hole in the wall. But the food was so good and the owner who was working was so friendly and seemed very excited to serve us and share his food. Really enjoyed the place, some of the best tortillas I’ve had around here“

“Buen servicio y pollo fresco y caliente!!“

“TLDR: huge pupusas and friendly serviceWe ordered the best burger in the mission and a zucchini pupusa. The burger seasoning was distinctly Central American with the spices but it was a little overcooked for me. The pupusa was pretty big and very flavorful and packed with ingredients. They also gave us free chips and salsa… the salsa was fuego! Service was very nice, quick and efficient“
