I got the beef empanada and the nopales with cheese empanada. Sooo good! I wish I had gotten some more to-go they would've been the perfect snack too. I love the way they're labeled, they taste fresh and the cafe was chill spot to hang out for a bit. They also have some drinks there and I was so happy to see they had those adaptogen blend drinks. They had a mocha I believe, a matcha, and I went with the reishi cacao (no espresso). It's like a better for you Hot chocolate and I loved it, so warming and yummy! Not too much interaction with the staff as they have one of those order screens to place your order but they were kind and seemed friendly! Definitely would come here again when I'm back in SF!

tl;dr I used to be a regular at Uno Dos when I worked on Stevenson, so maybe some of this is just…read morenostalgia, but I think this restaurant deserves its flowers. Forgot to snap a photo of the unwrapped burrito, but added one of it wrapped for scale. Ambiance: My most recent visit was takeout for breakfast, so I don't feel fully entitled to give an accurate ambiance rating, but back in the day (pre-Covid), the post-work vibe was 5/5. I saw that they still offer blankets for you to use when sitting outside, which I always thought was thoughtful. Food (5/5): This rating is for their breakfast burritos, since I haven't had lunch there since I moved out of SF (but in the past, I LOVED the tinga and lengua). The base breakfast burrito with potato, egg, cheese, and salsa fresca starts at $5.75. Add-ons are +$1 each for bacon, chorizo, veggies, or avocado; +$0.75 for sour cream; and +$1.50 for guacamole. My burrito order adds on bacon, veggies, and avocado for a subtotal of $8.75, which, to me, is a great deal for how filling it is. I especially appreciate that the bacon is broken up into bits and mixed throughout the burrito, so you're not accidentally eating the whole strip when taking a bite. The veggies are also great, the inclusion of zucchini (or some other squash) is really, really nice. My mom ordered one with veggie and avocado that she ended up not eating, so I ended up eating the next day. It was still delicious after a 5 hr plane ride and reheated in the microwave. Don't forget the hot sauce but be aware that it is spicy (and not "spicy" lol). My spice tolerance isn't that high but it's also not non-existent. The cup that they provide is just enough for me! Service (5/5): Always quick and friendly, just as I remembered in the past. Also want to shoutout the taco bar catering; back in the day, it was the default choice for my office because of its value and how easy it was to accommodate both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Food always arrived hot and on-time.

Chips are so well-seasoned that you could eat them alone even without any sauce (but I am not mad about pairing it with guac or the ceviche). For 12.50, you can get a supersized California burrito. Given it is almost the same price as a Chipotle burrito (hate comparing apples and oranges, but it's top of mind reference right now in this fast casual dominated world), I'd say it is great value. Would recommend trying their horchata cold brew on the side.

The place has a large bar, and seating area between it and the kitchen, order at the bar and take a seat, we got the fish tacos and the shrimp tacos, both were top tier, and come with a helping of lime, guac and salsa. For two tacos the price is a bit high, but the amount of fish/shrimp definitely compensated for that. Would love to be able to have these tacos more often

What I tried was pretty good. Yukitas Huancaina: Simple and a classic. Much more interesting than potato fries. Love the creamy cheese sauce. Aji de Gallina: A hearty classic. Creamy yellow sauce covering shredded chicken over boiled potato slices. It actually felt a little skimpy on the chicken, since there was a bunch of potato underneath. Great tastes though. And it's rich, so with the rice on the side it's a complete lunch. Chef's Favorite: I'm no stranger to lomo saltado; it's actually my favorite Latin American dish. However, after having many different versions over the years, this is the first time I had it with Huancaina Pasta. So much richer than rice! Kinda tastes like a spicy alfredo. Sometimes the pasta overpowers the lomo saltado taste and sometimes it pairs nicely. I guess it depends on much pasta you put on each forkful (tip: less is more). Meat Lasagna: Decided to try one of those Italian offerings and it was pretty darn good! I especially appreciate the abundant amount of sauce added to the big lasagna slice, so there's no chance of it being dry. It was a nice pink creamy sauce with some ground meat, so could have been good even on regular pasta. The lasagna had big thin layers of pasta and thin layers of meat, with a modest amount of cheese. Very filling!
