San Francisco’s Mexican Restaurants With Traditional Family Ambiance

The best Mexican restaurant in San Francisco with a family atmosphere is Mamacita located at 2317 Chestnut Street. When going to Mamacita’s make sure to try the tamales and tortillas that are created daily in the restaurant. Many of the ingredients used in the restaurant are grown on the owner’s family farm and delivered daily to the restaurant. The restaurant gives California flair to its wide variety of tacos including pit-roasted goat, duck leg carnitas, and crisp chicken tacos. The sauces used on the dishes have a rich and layered taste to them.

Mamacita’s barely beat out El Balazo, located at 250 Market Place.Want more? Click here.
