Okay a place with great portion sizes in SF??? In drinks AND food???? Sign me up.
Came to Papito's on a Friday evening around 8:30 and was easily able to get seated for our group of 5. Ambiance perfect for a comfortable and upbeat dinner!!
We got two containers of chips, each with a set of 3 salsas. All of them were very good, none super spicy.
We ordered 3 things for a table of 5, and I would say unless you're starving (or really want leftovers, which you do after this food), one dish is enough for two people. The chicken quesadillas were HUGE (4 thick quesadillas, still had one leftover after 2 people ate from it).
Me and a friend split the vegetarian fajitas, and it was hands down phenomena. The veggies (consisted of corn, onion, peppers, kale, mushrooms) were seasoned and cooked so well - perfect level of char, garlic, and salt. I've never liked kale so much in my life than in these fajitas... In addition to the steaming veggies, they gave us 8 tortillas (normally comes with 4 I think) + rice/beans, all for $16 (so $8 split between my friend and I minus tip/tax).
If you're looking for a smaller bite/snack (or have gotten overly stuffed on chips and salsa), the tacos came out to $6-7/individual!
We also ordered the jalapeño margaritas for the table - ask for the pitcher since it wasn't on the menu. The largest size (50 or 60 oz) was $50, and there was plenty to go around (1-2 glasses/person) for just $10/person. The glasses also have a generous amount of Tajin, so what's not to like??
Within an hour, we drank well, ate well, and were served well - def coming back here.
One note - there aren't a ton of options for vegan/vegetarian folks, but the fajitas were vegan (and so are margaritas! ha!). Don't expect a lot of extra vegan and veggie dishes but they seem accommodating (ie veggie fajitas not explicitly on the menu but just ask for fajitas without protein).
