“I’ve been coming to this taco truck for a while now and I can say great service and good Tacos. I’ve recently tried there Asada fries and I can say it’s probably one of my favorites now. I highly recommend this place if your looking for some good tacos or tortas“

“This food truck is worth a stop if you're wanting delicious tacos, tortas, and burritos. I have not been disappointed. They offer a variety of drinks including a strawberry horchata. I appreciate the fast and friendly service and delicious Mexican food. Atmosphere rating technically doesn't apply.
They generally park in a shaded area, so you can wait for your food in the shade.“

“Living just two blocks away, I made it a weekly ritual to dine here, and it remains my absolute favorite spot for street tacos. While I miss the salsa bar, a casualty of the pandemic, it was heartening to find the tacos tasting just as delicious as they did six years ago during my recent work trip. It's reassuring to see that this gem is still thriving.“

“Place was not that busy on a Memorial Day Monday, so I was able to order my food right away and the food was not that expensive. Worker who took my order was very nice. Food came out quick. Got a Carne Asada taco that was delicious. Didn’t even take a picture because it jumped in my belly. Burrito was decent, good flavor but I wish they put more meat in it. It was packed, but I found myself trying to conserve the meat to make it last for other bites. Salsa bar was cool with the huge selection to choose from. Other than that, I would come back and definitely order more tacos.“

“nice food and cold beer.“

“I had the Cabeza quesadilla and it was 🔥🔥🔥 the best cabeza I've ever had and I've had my fair share of good one's even some great one's... but this one is hands down the best I've ever had 🤤🤤🤤 definitely will be back! Thank you to the cooks and the customer service 🔥🙌🏾💯“

“Great food. Fantastic value. Don’t tell people, it’s already too popular 😃“

“Taqueria La Morena has some of the best Mexican cuisine that I have ever tasted. They had a large vegetarian offering, and the food was fresh and authentic. The prices were cheap, and the service was very quick. Extremely good food that I recommend to everyone!“

“First time I ate here was at this city wide event near the eco center downtown So San Francisco and the line to get food was around the corner literally. The food was fresh, hot and good portions for their prices is like paying a little for a lot more than what money is supposed to get you especially in ssf Bay Area okay. Lol.“

“The nachos with carne asada and a michelada! That is a perfect meal.

Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian and seafood options.

Kid-friendliness: We come with our grandkids and the staff is welcoming to us.

Wheelchair accessibility: There are no steps and the restaurant is at ground level.“

“Feel like you need to deport yourself in San Bruno? Head over and indulge yourself out here out to Mexico! Had an amazing experience here for a to go order. Ordered the super burritos and fish tacos. Your value goes a long way! There’s a help yourself salsa bar too. I can’t wait to try more out again.“

“second time here, love the Ramon Biria with a side order of Quesabiria.“

“Is a good Hidden Gem of South City. There are lots of taquerias, and some of them have their own niche, Los metates is no different. This place makes their own sauces, Albeit the variety of salsas is not so vast as what you would say a Pancho Villa would have, but the food quality of the meats and how they prepare everything is second-to-none! It's a very good high quality taqueria!!!“

“First time here….Mexican sandwich with carnitas… OMG so delicious“

“The place is so simple soo regular
That you go get food and out thats it
But the taste is 100/10 perfect
Latino people making their own food their own heritage its just perfect 👌👌
Willing to go back to San Francisco just to eat there again“

“un sabor authentic Mexicano. tortillas hechas a mano. Todo muy sabroso.“

“Fresh ingredients, delicious food; we enjoyed everything we tried. I'm just sorry I didn't try the habanero sauce; it would have been a little mild for me if I hadn't added jalapeños. For our tastes, knocks Chipotle out of the park!“

“second time here, love the Ramon Biria with a side order of Quesabiria.“

“I don’t normally give 5 star ratings but feel this place deserves it. It’s a hidden gem in downtown South San Francisco that serves authentic, unpretentious Salvadoran (and Mexican) food. The pupusas (we had the ones with pork, cheese and beans) were absolutely delicious and inexpensive. They go well with the house coleslaw and the mild chili sauce. The Salvadoran enchiladas (more like tacos) were very good as well. The best part of this restaurant is the staff, who are warm, generous, and kind. They really make you feel this is neighborhood place. We will definitely return to sample more items on the menu.

Parking: Paid street parking in front of the restaurant“

“I've been going here since my my daughter was born and she is now 25
the place is wonderful the food, best in that city will recommend it to any one that love home cook great Mexican food and the very best is the homemade tortias . This is a great pla w to eat . .“

“Very fresh and delicious Mexican fast food in SF. Excellent Super Burritos, Enchiladas, Tacos, great black beans and refried beans. Tables and stools for dining in. Fresh salsa bar“

“Amazing food, big portions 😊“

“The pink pancakes, huevos rancheros and chiliques were outstanding. Loved the food. The place is in an odd location: industrial fruit packing district in a weird parking lot. We didn’t think we were at the right place because of all the fork lifts. Server was lovely. It’s not the best atmosphere for breakfast but the food was good.“
