Superbowl Sunday. I want some Nachos! I've been coming to La Tapia for 10 years and have been coming in once every 2 weeks. Why? To buy half a pint of guacamole and half a pint of their Pico the gallo! The guacamole is so fresh and creamy. The Pico de Gallo has the right amount of kick and not too spicy. Put both of these on nachos or tacos! I also like to get 1 lb of their delicious carnitas. I usually eat half a pound for one meal and save the other half in the freezer. They also have a full tacqueria where you can buy burritos, tacos, quesedillas! Once in a blue moon I'll come early in the morning just to buy their breakfast burrito w/ chorizo and eggs! They also sell all types of tortillas and Mexican goodies and drinks. Metered parking around and CASH ONLY
I might be a little biased, because I've been going here since my teens. There really isn't anything special about this little mexican grocery/deli counter as there are tons of other places that run a similar operation. HOWEVER, what makes this place special is that it is family owned and has been part of the community forever. Everyone that plays a part in this store has always be helpful, positive, and just adds to the joy of shopping here. The food is pretty good and also they sell everything for pick up if you want to throw a party and want taqueria style food.
Is the food destination worthy? Nah, but most locals know this place because of all the reasons I listed above and to be honest, that's why you should check this place out. Support your favorite local businesses.
Not enough words to describe how GREAT this place is.
Real Mexican food, Family owned business sine early 70’s.
We love this place soo much that we recently flew from Florida to California and their shop was in our itinerary for our trip 😉
Great Burritos, amazing Chicharrones and Carnitas, beans, Rice, etc. and their Tortillas are delicious. This place also offers lots of Mexican spices, candies and anything you need to prep. Your own Mexican food at home.
Their customer service is SUPERB, they will always take care of you.
If you live in the Bay Area YOU HAVE TO TRY this place, if you are vacationing around San Francisco make sure you stop by and bring home some exquisite food you will NOT regret it.

I am hesitant to share my thoughts on this Taqueria as its a fave and its already crazy busy as it is. My mom and I stopped by to pick up a lb of carnitas (very good) at a very reasonable price, and a pint of refried beans, a pint of pico de gallo and a dozen house made corn tortillas. Total was $22 and change and that's with tax. There was a socially distanced line out the door, and the only allow so many inside at any given time, but we arrived at the line at 3pm (approx 6 ppl in front of us) and we were walking back out the door at 3:14pm. This Taqueria also has a grocery store with an Incredible selection of Mexican ingredients and snacks, etc. They've been around for a long time and they have great food. They also cater and sell trays of food that you can come pick up. Ok. I shared one of my faves....don't make me regret this....lol.
Excellent food, very kind employees, always good atmosphere. They charge convenient prices and the food quality is fantastic. Kudos.
