Local heritage. Take Out only. Once a primarily Latino neighborhood, as things change, this little place is still alive. I recommend to go: tiny tortillas, carnitas, guacamole, salsa & you'll have the best tacos. Known for their burritos.

The more upscale restaurant in South San Francisco, nice decor, ambiance, nice cocktails. Just been here for lunch and thought the stew I ordered needed to be cooked more. The ingredients were all there but felt like it needed more time to come together. Appetizers and drinks were good. One of the pricier places in SSF. I would try it again.
