Las Mestizas

I regularly come in the area, and need to find a simple cozy place to eat. Most of the time I'm at the taqueria accross the street, but today i wanted to try something new. This place doesnt look very fancy, but it will do. I stumble upon that 3 tacos for 2 deal for tacos wednesday, which seems like a pretry sweet deal. Started with the chicken taco. It was pretty good, but not really that special. It was fine, but the other place had better chicken taco i recalled. I then moved on to the Al Pastor, and omg that taco was so good. It had the right amount of fat in the pork, and seemed grilled to perfection. This was better than the Al Pastor from the place accross the street, so kudos on that. I then had the asada taco. Pretty solid, but i think the other place had better steak taco. Overall, the Al Pastor taco was definitely worth it, so i think i might come back. The 3 for 2 deal on wednesday is nice, but am i really gonna order 3 Al Pastor? ... hum yeah, why not.

Had extremely delicious veggie tacos, freshly made by a friendly man. I can recommend the restaurant, just the location needs a little tlc.

No frills Mexican food spot! Loaded tacos and the hot sauce was amazing 🤩

The service was fast and friendly, and the food was so good! I’m happy I stoped into this small spot. I had the Chicken Tortilla Soup, one al pastor taco and a margarita. The margarita seemed like it was made with a mix, but it was so refreshing I didn’t even mind. I was surprised by the portions and ended up having leftovers for later. They also offered me a house-made salsa that delivered on both spice and flavor. Highly recommend if you want a quick and satisfying meal. I spent about $39 with tip.

The environment is simple but no line, food serves fast, no frill, great portion and very tasty. No pretentious people 🙊or loud tik tokers 🙈- def a rare find for SF dining experience!

Solid breakfast burrito! Good ratio of cheese, eggs and potatoes and the green salsa they give you is great on there. Bit pricy, but definitely recommend!

Portions are definitely average. Food is pretty decent, but most bites were 75 percent rice.

Delicious, flavourful, and unassuming, topped with friendly service - a perfect hole in the wall restaurant. Definitely welcome on a street full of pricey options, with mediocre food and frills you couldn't care less for. We ordered the Yucatan platter (platillo Yucateco), and that had a great assortment of options, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian (mostly pork, and chicken). And yes, as the other reviews suggest, the lightly fried tortilla is delicious - salbutes, empanadas are the way to go!! One tip: If you can handle it, always ask fir the house salsa - its de.li.cious!!! Packs a punch. We'll definitely be back.

Morning after a night of dancing all evening this was the place to go for chilaquiles and steak/eggs. Delicious, fresh and tasty. Highly recommend to stop by this little place. Excelente desayuno en este lugar. Todo estuve bien rico y hecho con ingredientes fresco! Gracias!

Stopped by on the way to Chrissy field! Very casual and intimate space. The service was relatively quick- ordered the burrito at a counter and maybe waited for about 5 minutes. The burrito itself was great and very filling.

Ordered 4 chicken burritos to go, they were pretty good. Service was nice, and prepared quickly. Would order there again!

The experience was wonderful. There was no one there when we went on a Sunday evening. The entrance is tiny and easy to miss. The service was friendly and prompt. The food was delicious and the flan was fresh. I hope they get more business.

The burrito with the spicy sausages was very good. I would like to return the next time I'm in the area and try their dinner menu. BB

Let me just say this place has probably only gotten my order 100% correct maybe twice times. That being said I have gone back here 2 dozens of times since it opened - that is how absolutely gosh darn good the food is. I don't care if they hit me in the head with a sauce pan everytime I walk in, im still visiting. You should too.

The pork chops are great as are any panucho or burrito. Also, the breakfast is very good. It is hard to find a good Mexican breakfast in this area but Las Mestizas has it. The service is very kind.

Excellent Mexican restaurant in the Marina. I stopped in spontaneously on a Sunday afternoon after my workout class. I got a chicken soup. My partner got a coffee and breakfast tacos. ~$30 for the two of us. Not bad for the Marina. The soup completely exceeded my expectations: super flavorful but light broth, an entire chicken leg that falls off the bone, picked onions, tortilla strips, I was completely full after finishing the bowl. Good value for $12. I will definitely add this to my regular rotation. If you are trying to decide between Tacolicious or Las Metizas, come here. The food is tastier and more budget friendly. Friendly service, too!

So good! Legit good Mexican food...breakfast was yummy. So happy this place is here! Will definitely be coming back.

Got the chicken super burrito and was so impressed! I read that this was the best Mexican food in the marina and I believe it, this is my new go to spot. The burrito was so filling and the meat was seasoned so well. Comes with free chips and salsa - both the green and brown salsa were so good and the chips were thin and salty. 10/10

Service was good. Food was good albeit the burrito could've been toasted more. There was little to no ambience as it felt "hole in the wall" ish. I got a togo order. The main problem was the burrito wasn't fully sealed and started dripped and soaked the paper bag.

Love this place. It's authentic and the burritos are delicious. They have a great breakfast burrito selection here too. Service was super fast, and they brought it out faster. The ambience is great, it's hole in the wall but the music and the chairs are great. Feels like it could be a place in the Mission. So great seeing it in the Marina.

The breakfast burrito is fire! The bacon is crispy in crumbles so it's in every bite. The pico is super fresh, the tater tots are crispy and delicious. Run, don't walk to Las Mestizas! Absolutely delicious!

Closest things to San Diego Mexican food you can get in San Francisco, their homemade salsa is amazing. Love this place so much!!!

Great experience! The food is delicious and the man working (alone) did a great job at preparing our food fast and well. The place is clean and its a nice atmosphere for a small location. The steak quesadilla was the best! The guacamole was a little sour, but still good.

I order the panucho breakfast and it was delicious. It come with potatoes that were absolutely amazing. Their salsa was spicy and really good.

The most authentic Mexican food in the Marina. I'm so picky with Mexican food and this place is actually good. Very pleasantly surprised! Service is quick and the food is always consistent. Highly recommend!!

This is a little "hole in the wall" but clean and well lit. You walk in and order at the counter. Our order taker was very friendly and she helped us to pick out traditional conchinita tacos, panucho, and torta de conchinita. Tacos- wonderful. The al pastor was flavorful! Torta-well stuffed with lots of pork. The panucho (never had one before) - crispy corn tortilla fried and stuffed with beans topped with lots of chicken, lettuce, pickled onion and avocado-was fantastic Also enjoyed a refreshing Jamaica-just the right sweetness.

Holy cow! Do not sleep on this place. I knew as soon as we walked by it and I smelled the food wafting out the door that I wanted to eat lunch here. We had the tacos Al Pastor, the fish tacos and a regular grilled chicken burrito. First off, their corn tortillas for tacos are handmade and so delicious. Second, I always judge a place based on their beans and rice and in the burrito, they were excellent- perfectly seasoned and cooked and even, nothing overpowering one or the other. And the grilled chicken was on point. Nothing was too salty or bland. I highly recommend running to this place and eating it fresh. Will try it on DoorDash maybe but definitely going to back to have some more tasty goodness. Seriously one of the best authentic Mexican spots in SF.

A new quaint Mexican restaurant in the marina! Newly opened on Feb 20, 2023. My friend and I stopped in for dinner on Wednesday night after this restaurant seemingly appeared out of nowhere. We asked the waiter which chicken dishes he would recommend, and ended up ordering the Escabeche (chicken soup) and Pollo Asado (roasted chicken). Both were great! The chicken was soft and juicy, and fell right off the bone. The Escabeche was especially delicious, and is definitely great on a cold rainy night. The waiter was extremely nice and split our soup into two bowls, and cut our chicken in half. Las Mestizas is a great place to sit and chat and enjoy some Mexican food. They serve breakfast as well- excited to go back and try that menu!

I love this place. Our city at its best is family restaurants with a clear vibe, bringing a unique flavor that feels like the flavors signature flavors that come from the chefs home kitchens. I love the plates, the breakfast burritos are so good, the horchata is a great pairing with anything, and even if I go for the quesadilla it is made in such a unique way that I appreciate.

Always on the lookout for regional Mexican cuisine, we stopped in recently for a late lunch. I've tried a few Yucatan specialties before but you don't see them very often so yay.. excite! We shared a sampler platter, and that alone could have been plenty as it had a pork tamal, a chicken tosada, a small cheese and a small meat empanada, a panucho and a salbute (both kind of like variations on a tostada). All on the smaller side but still it was an abundant amount of food. However, we had also already ordered a plate of cochinita pibil to share so we each made ourselves a little taco from that (with fresh tortillas) and took the rest home. Everything was very tasty and I liked the optional salsa that was provided as well. It was not too spicy with good, fresh flavors that complimented everything and didn't overpower. Service was fast and the staff is very kind. We found parking within a block or two. Definitely recommend if you're in the area.

Zero stars if I could. I walked in said hi to the lady upfront. She looked past me and didn't not acknowledge me. Another guy came in didn't even wait she helped him immediately, a guy came to give her his dish masked to order something else. All while I was standing there. I will never return.

Wow, their breakfast burrito is great! It has the perfect crunch from the tater tots and bacon bites, which pair well with their green sauce and orange spicy sauce. I would skip the breakfast tacos; they're pretty heavy and messy. It's a casual spot with parklets outside. The service is pay-at-the-cashier, then find your own seat. I will be back to try different items.

Hard to find a good burrito in an area outside the mission. Great portions & it hit the spot. I will be coming back

The plantains and the rice came out pretty well and pretty quick food was delicious and Fresh. As far as the service the lady was pretty nice she had great verbal communication and nonverbal communication As far as the ambience the environment was pretty clean pretty detailed looking and fairly new cell customers were kind of like on numbers but the food is pretty good so on the foods good people usually follow The next Best Thing as far as trendz

Finally, real Mexican food in the Marina!! We had a wonderful lunch at Las Mestizas yesterday and were happy to seeing Yucatán/Mayan regional influence on the menu - cochinitia pibil (slow-cooked bbq pork), poc chuc (thinly sliced citrus pork chops, grilled), panuchos (fried tortillas filled with beans). It was so hard to pick! I opted for the Mayan enchiladas, which had a healthy serving of their very tasty cochinita pibil and my husband had what he described as "the best fish tacos I've had in NorCal." Their tortillas are handmade, which is notch above most Mexican spots. The service was excellent, the staff answered all our questions, brought us our food and drinks outside and chef came out to chat with us for feedback. They also have a permit transfer pending for beer and wine too, so will have more to offer soon. But truly, the sign of a good Mexican restaurant...the chips and salsa were freshly made and perfectly executed. My only one wish is they the rice had more flavor, but most Mexican places don't do rice well so it's not a huge deal. We're so bummed we moved to another neighborhood now, but we'll be back again for seconds and thirds!! We want this place to stick around.

Five stars for the homemade tortillas in the tacos here! I actually don't believe I've ever had homemade tortillas in SF so this was awesome! I ordered the cochinita (pork) which is what they're known for but the asada and pollo were also solid. Each taco is $6 which is definitely on the pricier side but I think justified by the homemade tortilla. That said, I think the tacos could have benefited from more salsa and onion/toppings. The shop was very empty when we went Saturday dinner time. Inside was clean and they were playing traditional music. Service was great too!

Delicious!!! These were REALLY good -meat lovers breakfast burrito -vegetarian breakfast burrito

Took a walk with our dog and decided to get a light snack. Ordered three tacos and chips/salsa. Tacos were terrific! Had a perfect amount of lettuce, making the overall taste light but tasty. Definitely going back to check out other items in the menu. Cochinita was soft and tasty. The green hot sauce has a little kick and perfect with the tacos. Perfect on a sunny day with the outdoor seating shared with the adjacent restaurant.

I was in the neighborhood looking for a little bite to eat and with the help of Yelp found Las Mestizas. The owner was friendly his service was very attentive. He told me was that they had only been open for around a month. I enjoyed the Cochinita (marinated pork) regular burrito and the Poc Chuc (similar to pork carnitas) taco. I liked the taco more as is was super flavorful. The restaurant is petite and on a busy day can fill up quickly. I'll definitely be back :)

Was excited to see a new place in the marina, especially one with a cool and unique menu. Featuring some more traditional Yucatán dishes, this place brings some much needed flare to the assortment of restaurants in the marina. Right off the bat, the sauces that came with the chips were so so so good. Chips, sauces, refills on the hibiscus tea all free and our waiter offered more of their handmade tortillas to us eagerly!! The hibiscus tea was great and not too sweet. The food was very tasty, sauces and handmade tortillas made this place special. Service was great. We got the enchiladas and cochinitas. Excited to come back and try more things, excited to see Mexican breakfast items. This place is no frills, and I like it that way: it lets the great food, service, and generosity shine through.

It makes sense that this place would have 4.5 stars in the marina district: American cheese on a quesadilla.

Two of us got the chilaquiles and one got a breakfast burrito. The burrito was big and stuffed and my friend said it was delicious. The chilaquiles, unfortunately, were soggy. Evety single tortilla chip, even the ones that did not have sauce on them, were soggy, as if the entire dish had been steamed or possibly microwaved. The staff were very nice. Moral of the story: order the burritos and not the chilaquiles.

Hi! I absolutely love your place and wanted to share a couple of suggestions that I think would be amazing additions to your menu: 1. **Healthier Bowl Option:** A bowl with fajita veggies, fajitas chicken steak or shrimp meat, rice, black or refried beans, and cheese, sour cream etc. with a healthier twist. Maybe you could go heavier on the veggies and add some avocado for a fresh touch/ lettuce. 2. **White Queso:** San Francisco is missing out on Tex-Mex style white cheese dip. It's so popular in the South, and I'm sure it would sell like crazy here too! 3. Chicken tortilla soup!!! Thanks for considering these ideas--I think they could be real hits!

Small hole in the wall next to Souvla that you will miss if not looking for it. Been a few times and never disappointed. Had most of the tacos: fish, asada, chorizo, cochinita, pastor...all of them are great and solid price for sf. Friendly staff and rarely a wait.

Possibly my new favorite spot in the Marina, their Mexican food is SO tasty and the quality of ingredients seems better than some other places. I had their enchiladas which I recommend, super delicious and they were stuffed with meat. Also had one of their burritos with the smoked pork and it really filling and tasty.

Love the food but they need to figure out their delivery and takeout. On multiple occasions, the delivery person went in after waiting 15 mins, and 30+ minutes after ordering, and was informed they forgot to start the order.

I ate here recently, this was my experience. Cold rice and beans, it's not following food safety rules and hurt my stomach. Also the meat was cooked until very dry and like a hockey puck. I'm not a picky eater all I ask is it's edible and won't make me sick.

They don't offer a free meal on your birthday anymore, they had signs for it not long ago and it's still posted on their website. Source: went in there for my birthday this week. Figured I'd save anyone else the "surprise", as it sucked up my time. Besides that I'm glad they opened on Chestnut

Delicious food! Fast pleasant service. Fun to eat outside of the weather cooperates. Great value!

Food is solid! So delicious! I was craving authentic Mexican food and found it! I ordered the soft tacos- died and went to heaven as I'm a sucker for homemade CORN tortillas. I also got their signature Panuchos- incredible, unique and I should have ordered more! Flavorful, authentic and beyond satisfying. So happy to have wandered into this new spot. I most definitely will be back again. I've got a super picky palate and my taste buds and tummy were so happy! The service is great, too! (I ordered to-go but they were so friendly and helpful.

Got takeout here and ordered some traditional foods and the Philly cheesesteak. EVERYTHING WAS DELISH! I was confused by the cheesesteak on the menu, but YES. This was so good. I guess when you have juicy marinated steak and cheese on hand, why not. The bun was tender, the cheese was cheesy, and I was surprised by a side of amazing seasoned fries. I'm so happy we have a new Mexican place in the neighborhood that has so many different options other than a burrito or quesadilla. Try the Salbutes and Panucho! Only recommendation is that they are on DoorDash or some sort of takeout/delivery service. I'd like to order this for lunch and quickly pick up during the week :)

Food - 5/5 : Came here for breakfast and tried the steak and eggs breakfast burrito. Was really impressed with the burrito. It's packed with juicy steak, crispy tater tots, melty cheese, and scrambled eggs cooked to perfection. The onions add some additional flavor to balance out the fat. The only thing that wasn't perfection was the salsas. The green salsa was good but the other two red salsas were lacking in flavor and spiciness. For the breakfast burritos, I would love to see a spicy and orange salsa option similar to the sauce at La Victoria in San Jose. Ambiance - 3/5 - It's a bit cluttered in the kitchen and dining are Service -5/5 - Amazing service here. Food came out quickly and they were super friendly.

Stopped by this AM to take a peak into the new spot and grabbed a fresh squeezed OJ. It was so yummy. It's super authentic Mexican food. I will def be grabbing lunch here!

The Panuchos are incredible! I recommend the Cochinitas, Poc Chuc Pork, and shrimp. Normally I order one of each

We split a bacon and avocado burrito which was perfect size and was very good! The staff was friendly and attentive.

very delicious !!!! FOOD tastes exactly like the Riviera Maya. good music playing in the background.

Best Mexican food in the Marina, easily. I'm from South Texas so I like my Mexican food rich in flavor, but cheap. Honestly haven't been able to find any normal down home Mexican cooking in the city (that's not in the mission). Definitely give this place a try! I personally love their breakfast vegetarian burrito.
