Grab a shot and a tall boy at Tacolicious, to go with their amazing carnitas tacos… the others are good, they just can’t compare. Read more

Apparently all the Texas kids go nutty over the Tex-Mex queso ("it's super authentic!). A-okay with me... as long as I can dip my chipz in it.

Great Taco Tuesday options. $6 margaritas (normally $11) and $15 for a 6-taco platter to make your own tacos. People go nuts over the queso too

Sort of mid-upper market Mexican street food. It’s all really tasty and you’ll have fun here. Just be aware you can have completely authentic and equally delicious tacos in a dozen other places nearby

Taco galore, lots of great veggie options (I liked the mushroom better than the fried avocado), perfect for a snack. Split a pitcher for four glasses. Happy hour on weekdays

Carnitos tacos are the best! Margarita Fresca is such a nice and fun twist to the original! Get that one and enjoy a fun casual environment! 🍸😉🎉

The service is great here. Vegetarian tacos are really tasty (you will need 2-3 to feel ok) they give you fresh tortilla chips with tasty mild salsa. Don't miss the house margaritas. LOVED IT!

"Their seasonal kale salad never fails, and every now and then you just have to get the queso dip. Don't think about what's in it and just eat it." Chef Adam Dulye Read more

Super chill vibe for a trendy spot in the mission. Come to grab a Pacifico off tap, a tall Tecate and some super delish tacos. A little pricy but this is San Francisco and the environment is legit!

Loads of great things. One particular favourite of mine is to get the shrimp el diablo and a bowl of guacamole and some tortillas. Delicious.

salsa and chips were amazing,veggie tacos and spicy calamari tacos were really good. try the kale salad and picante margarita 🍸

Great cocktails and tacos. They have a wide variety of option that you can mix and match if you’re as indecisive as I am.
EaterJanuary 28, 2013
Its fresh, local takes on traditional tacos, solid margaritas, and stylish atmosphere easily win out over other possibilities like Velvet Cantina and Tia Margarita. [Eater 38 Member]
Jimmy HookerAugust 7, 2014
I liked it, but this definitely leans towards yuppie Mexican food, especially when compared to the incredible Mexican you can find just around it in the Mission. Also, two hour waits on Fri/Sat.

Tacolicious is incredible. Taqueria is still the gold standard but man is this place gunning for the title. Best guac, al pastor, carnitas, margaritas. It's incredible
A L E XAugust 24, 2014
Wonderful tasting tacos, had the platter of different kinds. Chorizo was great. Queso dip was awesome and their own wine drink is tasty.
Monika McMahonMay 17, 2015
The Ya Mon (chili infused tequila with pineapple and lime) was a delicious and not too spicy of a tequila drink. Great option for something that's not a typical margarita.
Tim MacalinoJanuary 12, 2018
Tacos are Delicious....do try this stunning beet salad with slices of citrus, creme fresh, crushed peanuts on top n greens!!
Renaissance HotelsApril 23, 2013
In addition to the namesake tacos, there is also a menu full of other dishes from salads to enchiladas and tostadas. The full bar offers a huge selection of tequilas, beers and hand-crafted cocktails. Read more

Great service, excellent vibe and yummy food. I wish only they had some other Mexican dishes but if you like tacos- make a point to visit this place!
Santiago MereaSeptember 5, 2014
I start with the Albacore Tuna Tostadas - Ask @ChefTelmo to tell you the story behind them... hilarious -, followed by Fried Pacific Cod Tacos, and the Ceviche Verde. Bonus: Their chips and salsa!
N RSeptember 17, 2014
The green salsa is the best of the three served with tacos, but the salsa served with the chips is even better yet. A little less sweet and a little more heat and it would be 10/10.
Tiana DangerDecember 6, 2014
Authentic? No. But fairly enjoyable, yes. Every single item on the menu -from tacos to margaritas to guac- tastes different every time you order it. Queso Dip, service & tequila selection are on point
Travel + LeisureNovember 30, 2012
At this brightly tiled, sceney spot (and Mosto, its tequila-bar annex), you can get pitchers of margaritas made with blackberry and tarragon and tacos of succulent prickly pear and queso oaxaca.
Lovisa MagounakisJuly 25, 2017
Albacore tuna tostadas contramar style was the best Mexican food I've had. Just amazing. Guacamole to die for.
Leticia SilvaJanuary 16, 2015
I got the butter squash and the nopales con queso taco! They were both really good, for those that don't eat meat I would recommend.
Norris TranFebruary 8, 2012
Holy mole! All the tacos are incredible with the mole taking the crown. hip atmosphere with inspiring tequila selection. Pricey but a must try when in the mission district (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Tacolicious is the place. The queso and quac are delicious. Order a pitcher of margaritas and two tacos each to fill you up. (You can always order more)

It's rather delicious. What sets this taco oasis apart from other joints in the area is the sit-down, high-end, "cocktail-driven" surroundings. Read more

California doesn't always come through on the queso front. But you can count on Tacolicious to fill the melty cheese-shaped hole in your heart.
David SchwartzMarch 6, 2013
This is a GREAT business! Great Food, and they give back to the community with 15% of all sales on Mondays going to a different local school. Go get some tacos & guacamole. You won't be disappointed.

Nothing wrong with the tacos here, but don't miss the small plates, including shrimp a la diabla, Veracruz-style squid and fried empanadas filled with Swiss chard and Oaxacan cheese: Read more

Taco Tuesday deal is A+. 6 hard shell tacos in a make-it-yourself platter for $15 bucks. Yes please.
Parsa OloumiMarch 21, 2021
Great Mexican restaurant with super delicous Taco and mouthwatering Guacamole and Tortilla . Great service
Varun ShettyJuly 13, 2015
Must get the queso. And follow up with the chorizo tacos (put some of the queso on the tacos to unlock a portal to another world

Open for weekend brunch at 11:30 am and hasn't been discovered by the masses (yet). The chilaquiles are amazing.
Ken BaldwinMarch 31, 2014
This is kinda like Bakersfield.. You can get margaritas and tacos. Its pretty good mexican food in a cool atmosphere if you don't feel like eating at a homey mexican joint.
David KaplanAugust 20, 2017
They think that tacos can be eaten family style. They take individual orders and then have a look of glee and confusion when they drop off 1 plate for 7 people without explaining who's is who's.
Justin McKissickApril 23, 2017
Get anything and everything, it's all fantastic. Endless High quality tortilla chips on the house!
Aravind RamanathanDecember 30, 2015
A good mix of authentic and experimental Mexican food. Top quality ingredients which shows. My favorite is the carnitas taco.
Jakob KahlenJuly 12, 2015
Nachos with T-lish Guacamole + Four different tacos from the taco menu is the perfect combo.
Karolina 🦖September 28, 2015
I tried two tacos - one with chicken, and one with fish, and they were both awesome. Beware of the yellow sauce - it's super spicy.
Natalie KSeptember 29, 2015
The spare rib taco was amazing. Also, the joint tequila bar has great tacos to snack on while waiting for tables.
Samara TrillingMay 15, 2013
$10 prix fixe for a taco, shot of tequila, and a tecate! Also, Tuesday specials: $12 crispy shell taco pack and $5 margaritas
Michael ClarkeAugust 25, 2014
Chips and salsa were great. Couldn't stop eating them. Pacific Cod taco was quite good as was the Vanilla Bean Flan. A bit noisy though on a Saturday afternoon.

Great place to celebrate. Great Food. Good Drink. You might Mark Morford here!

They do several of their signature drinks by the pitcher if you want to go full throttle with a bunch of friends! http://barchick.com/find-a-bar/san-francisco/tacolicious
Carrie BevisAugust 2, 2015
two tacos (taco of th e week!) and a basket of their well seaoned chips and salsa make a tasty meal. Be prepared for a wait in line.

Great place for tacos if you're looking for a sit-down restaurant. There are also locations in the Marina and North Beach.
