I want to highly recommend this place, great service, I'm so sorry I didn't get my server's name, but let me tell you she was awesome, she gave me a sample for champurrado since I'm from a different country, she was opened to suggestions, gave us plenty of time to make our decisions on our food. Champurrado was spectacular, the costillas en Adobe were perfectly cooked, Chile relleno was good, even it wasn't my favorite an authentic Chapin said it tasted great, the chuchito was tasty, and the pan con chow mein was extremely good, we ordered it and couldn't eat it right away, and when we finally ate it, (after two days traveling with it, 2 nights at hotels room) it was just perfect, which is the reason am making this review, just finished it, it's too bad we ate it till today and we are too far away to go back for more... we are at Arizona, heading to San Antonio TX, but definitely if you are at San Francisco you should go and enjoy there awesome food and service. To my server, thank you...
Read moreI rarely order takeout, but today I was feeling so sick, with a cough and my bronchitis flaring up, and I really needed something warm and comforting.

Thank you, Tikal, for making my day a little brighter and warmer. I highly recommend the Sopa de Res and the Tamales de Pollo. I will definitely order from here again whenever I need that comforting, home-cooked...
Read moreNew place on Excelsior, on Mission, one block away from Geneva it used to be a Pizza place for many years. Restaurant/Bakery serving a limited menu with few Breakfast and Lunch Items that also serves Guatemala Bread. The area was clean and I liked the light that comes in from the outside to make the place bright all around. I ordered the Picana special, the steak was well seasoned and came with whole black beans, plantains, very thin slice of queso fresco, a spoon of sour cream, the plate was served with two eggs that I asked to be make over easy and sadly the eggs were cooked well done, this plate included two home made tortillas wrapped in thin foil that looked that were made earlier, soggy and didn’t...
