50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Pacifica

“I've tried all the vegetarian burritos in town, and La Perla has the best. All ingredients of a super burrito (minus meat) and comes with extra veggies inside - peppers, onions, and spinach fajita style - rather than just a regular burrito, but with less, like most places do. It stands out among the Mexican restaurants in town for vegetarian options. Very good homemade salsas“

“I sorta don't want to receive this because I want it all to myself. A bit behind and off the road, these tacos were great!! Had a couple of beers and tacos after a long hike above the coast. Service was a bit slow for tacos but nothing horrible (~10mins). Very nice staff and free chips and salsa inside (self service).“

“I go out of my way to get La Mordida' salsa. Generous self serve salsa bar, delicious Chipotle, Verde, pickled jalapeños and carrots, and spicy peppers and mango salsa (I miss the spicy cucumber salad they used to have all the time. The vegetarian options are good, sometimes just all right, but they are very consistent and everything is very fresh. I can make a whole side dish out of their salsa bar while I wait for my order, which makes this my favorite taqueria in town. The one star is missing from my review in atmosphere, only because it's usually quite loud so I only do to-go. I've only sat inside to eat once or twice. The staff is wonderful, helpful, and kind, even with language barriers. Never gotten my order wrong“

“Great food and love supporting local Pacifica restaurants!“

“La atención y la comida muy buena“

“Great Taqueria! Carne Asada bowl and a super burrito were great. One thing that was different to other Taquerias I've been to, is the self serve tortilla chips! You get an empty bowl, and you fill it up yourself. Quite nice change. Recommend this place if you're in the area“

“Such a great menu! These guys are the best!“

“Loved this place! Everyone was so nice, from the owner to the staff. The food was excellent, and the service was top notch. We watched the World Cup here, and the atmosphere was fantastic. It was a fun, lively experience with great food and great people. We will definitely be back!“

“Ok, so, I love a good pozole, but I also have some stomach issues that make it so I can’t really process hot spicy food well, so I often can’t find a pozole that works for me and still is deep and rich like I want. Their pozole here is a rare and delicious exception! It’s rich deep broth sings and the hot oil is in the side so I was able to dig in and have an amazing lunch before heading to the beach to chill out for a bit. I’ll be back, often.

I also had their carnitas burrito and it slapped pretty hard too.

That said, the quesadilla was just a bit meh.“

“We found this place by asking where the best burritos were. Everyone we asked said to come here. You will wait in a long line but it moves fast and absolutely worth the wait! We got ours to go but there is some inside seating. Hands down the freshest most delicious burrito I've ever had. They are huge!“

“Great little Mexican restaurant that we almost passed by without stopping. I’m very glad we didn’t. The inside is small, but the authentic mole and green sauces were
fantastic. The lady at the counter was super helpful in walking us through the options and making recommendations. Highly recommend for authentic Mexican flavors and food.“

“The food was excellent, everything tasted so good and fresh, I loved their molletes and chilaquiles, I never tried before a chilaquiles with habanero sauce but it was super good, their cafe de olla was great as well. They have friendly staff.“

“I recommend the “Tinga” tacos or sopes 👍🏼“

“Quaint & good food. Friendly restaurant & staff.“

“best tacos 🌮🇮🇹🐍🦅 in San Francisco 🚩🏟📍49ers 🏈 maybe 🤷 😂24th street 💘“

“This is the food truck spot for tacos in San Francisco’s Mission District. The tacos are loaded and the sauces are nice and spicy. I love all the veggie’s they add on the side as well. Easy to pick up to-go or chill at the tables they have outside. I got 4 tacos for $17. Well worth the price and always happy to support small local businesses like this. This was a great way to celebrate Cinco De Mayo.“

“Delicious food, super friendly service. A little slower than a typical restaurant, but that’s because everything is made to order and not sitting around in a pan waiting to be served. The food was amazing, and so pretty!“

“Been going there since the 70’s We loved their fresh made tortillas and masa for tamales. I did notice today the tortillas weren’t the same. I pray the masa hasn’t changed when we make our Xmas tamales. For the past 27 years I drive from Antioch to San Francisco for our masa.🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️“

“Kiosk for ordering, so no human interaction. I can’t really compare what I ate with other Mexican restaurants because of dietary restrictions. We had tacos: hand made blue corn tortillas! Meat had a charred flavor and was of good consistency. Quesabirria eas nice the consume was on good too. Overall great experience.“

“Un lugar donde te sientes como en casa, como en tu México lindo y querido. Con la atención más cordial, amable y amigable del mundo. Lugar donde te concierten el paladar con la exquisitez de su buena comida y bebidas. Gracias Tio Chilo!!!!!“

“Food was Delicious. Staff was very friendly. The restaurant was very clean. Food was all fresh. I absolutely recommend them! We will be back.“

“Walked in one day and wanted to try some nachos. Had a great time. It was good fresh food. The service was amazing and the views from the windows are pretty. The restaurant is also decorated very beautifully. Will come back again to try the other things I was suggested. But unfortunately just the day was not just for me, which was decent.

Don't mind the to go box in my photos. I didn't want to dirty dishes when I was hoping to take most of the Nachos to go :)“

“I was surprised how good the food here is! Not too greasy, and very reasonably priced, they're also open late and jave both indoor and outdoor seating. Service is also very good, I would definitely recommend if you're looking for lunch or a quick late night bite in Half Moon Bay.“

“food is delicious staff very polite“

“Found a GEM! Food was top tier, savory and delicious. Food was so good we didn’t want to stop eating! Stopped by before watching a movie with my husband and so glad we stopped. Friendly service and beautiful atmosphere. Definitely coming back :)“

“I always get the baja style fried fish tacos Nick's way. Had some friends try them last night, and everybody thought they were incredible. I personally also add their habanero salsa which you'll have to request for if you like that much heat. Their house margaritas are the perfect accompaniment. The staff is all great. It's generally busy every time I'm there but luckily I've never had to wait very long for a table (that might just be luck).“

“Let's start with the amazing food I had ,lets add the perfect service that it was provided by Marta Melendez, her smile and attitude was the best part ! Thank you Marta for your excellent service, the food was amazing ?! Marta keep the smile on her face ,even that I was a super busy day she was making us feel happy with her service! A big plus ,for the restaurant for having people like Marta!“

“La Tapatia makes The Best " Carnitas " I've ever tasted "Muy Bueno" I buy Some at least 4x a month with freshly made Corn Tortillas ummmm 👍“

“I can’t say enough good things about Mexico Típico and the staff who work there. Every time I go the staff are very friendly and the food is always delicious. My last visit just solidified all the positive experiences I’ve had eating their food. Their carne asada burritos, fajitas, red sauce enchiladas, carnitas and refried beans are all made to order and come out nice and hot. My mouth is salivating just thinking about all that food!! I’ve had their super shrimp burritos before and they are fire. Love all the peppers and fillings they put In that burrito. This is my go to spot in the neighborhood for that comfort food vibe. Oh and their breakfast burritos with chorizo and refried beans too! So good!“

“¡La comida es excelente y un servicio increíble! Pedí tacos de carne asada y me encantaron. ¡La salsa y las papas fritas estaban muy buenas!“

“My son and I YELPED for Mexican food.Good Mexican Food, and decided to give this place a try. I had the Spicy Shrimp Plate, and my son had the Steak and Spicy Prawns. They also provide Tortilla Chips and a Salsa Bar. The guy who cooked our food, knows how to cook! My shrimp was absolutely a balance of green/red peppers, onions, in a slightly sweet, savory and mildly spicy sauce. The Rice was done just right(not dried out).The Black Beans, were tender, with just the right amount of salt. The Iceberg lettuce and sliced radish was cold, fresh and crispy— Served with a dollop of sour cream, avocado sauce; a slice of tomato and sprinkle of Mexican cheese top the salad - it did a nice job to balance the heat of the main course. Everything was well executed. The overall indoor atmosphere is very clean, simple and no frills. Love their neon menu signage. And, their prices are reasonable. Thank you for the delicious meal. We will be back.“

“Incredible breakfast burrito - tortilla was soft and chewy, nice crunch from the tater tots, and creamy/fattiness from the perfectly cooked eggs, cheese, chorizo, and avocado. The red sauce added just enough heat and acidity to balance everything out. I wasn't hungover, but I can't imagine a better hungover breakfast.“

“First time trying the food at this spot and all I can say is that I got surprised, I ordered an alambre and when I got home it overpass my expectations, not only that flavor is good but the presentation was amazing, I'll be back for sure!“

“One of the best restaurants in South San Francisco! Everything we ordered was so good. The meat was flavorful and cooked perfectly, all of the salsas were amazing, and the drinks were a 10/10. The atmosphere is beautiful and makes the whole experience even better. We highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back again!“

“delicious food and clean dining area“

“Wow.. I do have an addiction to Mexican food or maybe its just GOOD EATs! What a hidden no frills gem. Simple easy filling latin comfort food. I noticed a lot of foot traffic during a mid afternoon late lunch.. if the locals are grabbing food its a good indication it might be worth a bite.“

“the best taqueria 🌮 torta“

“Incredible food & wonderful staff!“

“I ordered a chorizo torta without beans and it was absolutely fantastic! The chorizo was seasoned wonderfully, and the torta went super well with the salsa verde that the waiter very kindly offered me. It is a little pricey, about 16 dollars, but it was a really big portion, and I felt full after half the sandwich. If you are a fan of good tortas, good service, and wanting a cozy restaurant to eat in, this is the place!“

“The food was fresh and delicious, affordable, the environment was cozy, and the staff was super friendly.“

“Their flavor is top tier and always generous! I always look forward to this food truck being in the area - definitely gets busy around lunch time but it goes by fast, and absolutely worth the quick wait. You can call in your order ahead of time as well. Their quality of food is so good - very flavorful! Just go here and stop second guessing it - here you will be full and happy :)“

“In a never ending search for the best burritos in the Bay, I’m glad I found another solid option in Los Cuates. Super nice folks behind the counter, clean, organized restaurant, a solid salsa bar, and fantastic food.

The regular carne burrito was piping hot, and perfectly wrapped with a perfect balance of delicious meat, rice, beans, and salsa. Nothing groundbreaking, just solid Mexican food at reasonable prices served by nice folks. We need more places like Los Cuates.“

“best tacos 🌮🇮🇹🐍🦅 in San Francisco 🚩🏟📍49ers 🏈 maybe 🤷 😂24th street 💘“

“I got their B. Option Breakfast burrito. So delicious! Perfect for a hangover. Bacon was crispy, eggs were cooked just right, perfect amount of cheese and soft fluffy potatoes. I tried all of their salsas that were fresh and had a decent spice to them. Chips are also fresh and crisp served complimentary with your meal. The service was excellent friendly staff that actually care about the quality and pleasing their customers. Great place to grab a bite to go or before heading to the beach. Excited to try their other dishes!“

“Delicious, authentic, home-style Mexican and Salvadoran cooking. Not many gringos to be seen here. Best if you can speak a little bit of Spanish — I think our waitress misunderstood our order, but what we got was delicious regardless. Highly recommend the papusas and carne asada“
