Elena's Mexican Restaurant

SF Restaurants With The Best Tableware - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"A meal at this over-the-top Mexican spot in West Portal is always a good time—especially because you get to stare lovingly at their scalloped green plates. Loopy floral designs make the ideal landing pad for all the free chips you’re about to inhale, and vats of pozole come in bowls with textured crimped edges. The beverage of choice for all this crockery appreciation: a frozen margarita. They’re open all day, but getting a table typically requires a wait during both lunch and dinner. Come by in the mid-afternoon or late evening for your best chance at a short wait. Otherwise, reservations are released on OpenTable three months in advance." - julia chen 1
