Liam AllingJanuary 15, 2013This place is amazing! Food is so good, cheap, and the dude gave us free guac, refrescas and bean purée to try. A must-go if you're near the Mission District. Shrimp tacos and braised pork were solid.
Luke BornheimerMarch 18, 2015The vegie trio (empanada, panuchos and salbutes) was eclectic, delicious and filing for the awesome price of $9. The complimentary chips (on the crunchier side) and salsas were also solid.
Spoon CarvalhoJanuary 28, 2019Some great Yucatan food from a mom and pop restaurant. My favorite was any dish with pork. Oh so tasty.
Simon TanFebruary 26, 2020The poc-chuc is phenomenal, and you can get it in taco form if you want to try other things
the panuchos and salbutes are wonderful. this is one of my favorite restaurants in the mission. lunch in particular!
Plato Maya (cochinita Pibil), Panuchos, Tacos de Cochinita... really, everything is delicious
JennyOctober 11, 2015Poc chuc (pork), chimole de pavo (turkey in mole), appetizer platter. A little too salty but really tasty with the soft, thick homemade tortillas
The Poc-Chuc, obviously, is fantastic. They'll even sub sauteed veggies if you don't eat rice.
- Laurie VNovember 4, 2012The signature dish, Poc Chuc, is great for any tastebuds. For the more adventurous, the turkey mole is delicious. The service here is absolutely outstanding!
just go for the mayan platter and don't be shy with the citric habanero salsa.. tortillas are handmade and crispy, delicious mayan cuisine.
Keith HankinMarch 12, 2014I had the poc-chic signature dish. Excellent food, great service, great value for the money.
Abhishek KonaAugust 15, 2015Best no frills Mexican food. No burrito straight carne asada with veggies and tortilla
ArthurMay 20, 2013Best authentic Mexican restaurant in sf. Order cochinitas tacos. Atmosphere is so, so
Kelly 🍰October 16, 2012Chile verde pork special FTW. Rice is so tasty here. The beans are fantastic.
- Alicia PrestonMarch 21, 2009Order the chimole de pavo (turkey in black mole, a.k.a. pavo en relleno negro), eat with plenty of fresh, tender, delicious tortillas that somebody's abuelita must make in back.
You can order a la carte salbutes and panuchos even if they're not on the menu
Diana MonroyMarch 16, 2018Los panuchos de cochinita son los mejores, simplemente deliciosos y la salsita de habanero deliciosa pero muuuy picosa
