"What people don't talk about when they review Mexican food is the rice and beans. In my mind they are the foundation of the food. Just like you can't have good pizza without a good crust same thing. Well, let me tell you that the rice is soft, fluffy, flavorful and not too salty and the beans (pinto) were cooked to perfection. That to me already merits a 5 star review. I got the mini super taco plate with a chicken and beef taco avo cheese cream. Delicious! All of it! And the service is swift and kind. Pretty amazing gem in the Tenderloin."

Burrito wasn’t bad. Salsa left a lot to be desired. The al pastor had an old taste to it.

I had steak tacos with tortilla chips and a 7 Up soda during my first visit to this restaurant on April 5, 2023. View menu

Good and fast service. Prices were cheap for the quantity and free chips are always a nice touch as well. I got the super burrito with pollo verde and it was really good.

Excellent place to eat, good price and exquisite taste.The employees of the establishment are very friendly, do not forget to bring cash as their machine does not accept tips.

This is my favorite taco place in the tenderloin! The meat is good and fresh; I like the shrimp and carnitas especially. They grill it when you order, so the meat is warm. They have a good balance of all the ingredients and corn tortillas. Open until the evening, so I’ve been for lunch and dinner. The staff is always nice and quick.

This is my favorite taqueria in the area. Their food is always delicious! When I order a burrito, they warm the tortilla right on the grill, and if you add cheese, they melt it on while the tortilla is grilling, making it wonderfully gooey! If you choose pollo asado, they grill that as well! They also offer fresh juices and a great selection of drinks, all at reasonable prices.

"Earlier this year Salty 's was featured in one of the top 100 places to eat in the Bay Area in 2022, and after trying it a couple times, it 's easy to see why. Quality and flavor, great customer service, it checks all those boxes. I occasionally visit the 24 hour fitness on Van Ness, and Salty 's happens to be just few short blocks away which makes it perfect when I 'm looking for a post-workout sandwich. And for those that know me, I love me my sandwiches. On my latest visit, I decided to go with the 'Glorious B sandwich, which come with turkey, bacon, avocado, pepper jack, veggies, and garlic mayo. The blend of flavors and high quality of the turkey is no wonder it 's at the very top of the menu list. It 's one of those sandwiches, that you can bring to park and not need a ton of napkins to get through. It was well put together, with the ratio of all the ingredients matching well. Nothing overpowering, just sandwich perfection. The size of the sandwich I thought was the perfect size for my appetite. As I 've gotten older I can 't put down as much food as I used to, and after one-half I knew I could 've stopped eating, be content, saved the rest for later. But of course I ate the whole thing and nothing sounds better than taking a quick power nap right after. I love that their menu has so many different sandwich combinations, so definitely take time to check their menu before calling-in/walking-in to order because it 'll definitely save you some time. On my latest visit, I was in and out in 10 minutes. Definitely towards the top of my list of sandwiches in this part of town!"
