The carne asada was tender and flavorful, not a chewy piece in the entire burrito. Such a well balanced and well packed burrito. Chips and salsa were delicious, salsa had a nice mild heat/flavorful balance to it. Chips were nice and perfectly crisp. I also ordered the margarita Azul and it was so delicious. Staff are attentive, nice, and welcoming. Overall I really enjoyed my experience here. I also loved that they had outdoor seating up front and I regret not sitting out there on such a gorgeous day like today. Will be back soon!

If you haven't had mole yet on one of your dishes, you absolutely must! Portions are generous here; you could easily make three meals out of their burrito.

Super cute place, looks like a mom & pop shop with booths inside & a counter you can sit at as well. They also had tables outside.

I really wanted to like Taqueria Bahia because I genuinely want to support local businesses, and…read morethe service here is very nice. The staff was friendly and welcoming both times I visited. That said, I've been here twice and unfortunately had the same experience both times. The first visit, I ordered a regular chicken burrito, and it was pretty bland. I figured it might have just been an off day, so I gave them another try and ordered a super burrito the second time. Sadly, it was also bland--even with sour cream and guacamole, which I didn't really see or taste. Their burritos are long but not very thick, and flavor-wise they just didn't hit for me. I was hoping for something more seasoned and bold. I truly hope this is taken as constructive feedback, because I do want local spots like this to succeed. The service is good, and the people are kind--it's just the food that needs more flavor. Unfortunately, based on my experiences, I can't recommend it and probably won't be returning, but I wish them the best and hope they continue improving.

On top of that the salsa is so bad it makes you want to gag when you taste it. Its sprinkles into the burrito as well so its almost impossible to even eat around the cold hard shredded cheese and sour cream and soggy lettuce. It reminded me of a little kid might make or put together. Overall i had a bit better expectations of at least having something edible in San Rafael, but I was wrong. Hopefully they learn what effort is because their food has none, nor heart, or seasoning.

Cascabel is one of my favorite bars in San Rafael…read more I came here various times with friends and always have had a great time. Service has been friendly & fast , and drinks have always been delicious. My favorite time to go is during their Happy Hour, as they have various affordable cocktail options as well as small bites. Their taquitos are my personal favorite, are so good, and come with a nice green salsa and sour cream. My favorite drink has to be the Tamarindo margarita, which I always get with a Chamoy rim. I also love the environment and aesthetic of this establishment, as the low light & modern look, make this place look elegant & classy. Will definitely be returning with my boyfriend and friends for a quick drink or two.

This spot seems more of a tequila bar that serves food rather than a restaurant setting. For food, we ordered the fish tacos, shrimp ceviche and taquitos. Their fish tacos were good! That green salsa (avocado/chiles) that comes with it was very spicy. Shrimp ceviche on the other hand was whole pieces of cooked shrimp halved lengthwise with cut up avocado and cucumber. I have had better. The taquitos were okay, the exterior tortillas were a bit overcooked. Was impressed with the selection of tequilas however. Would recommend the anejo flight. I'm not a huge tequila expert, but discovered that I like El Tesoro Anejo, very smooth! Service was attentive and our server went out of his way to explain the difference between the various flights. I would come back to try the tequila again for sure!

The staff was super friendly and welcoming. It's like a cute little burger shop but for pupusas. The vibes are great. Clearly a lot of regulars here, stones throw from Marin Civic Center. Side-note -- you can freely roam around inside the civic center which is one of the most mind-bendingly beautiful public buildings, a Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece that inspired a George Lucas for Star Wars. But anyhow, yes, the smell, the happy chatter, the bright windows, lots of little tables, very clean, it just feels right. I don't know Blankita but I can tell she's great. I got three pupusas, cheese and bean, revueltas, and cheese and loroco made with rice flour instead of corn. All were excellent, 5-6 bucks a piece. There are not many places like this in Marin, that feel they could be in the Mission. It's definitely going to be a tempting exit on my way home from work.

I went in and there was a bit of a line but the staff took orders and got the food out very quickly. Well run operation for sure. The inside was clean and as soon as a table finished it was immediately bussed and cleaned. I like that they had a open cooking area so you can see how they prep all the orders. I ordered a Carnitas Super Burrito and 3 Pastor Soft Tacos, I liked the complimentary salsa bar which had a few different pickled items, red and green salsa's along with chips. The Carnitas Burrito was good, the mix of the sour cream, guacamole, beans and rice with the salsa gave it good amount of flavor. My only issue was the Carnitas was a bit dry and chewy and was mostly just salty in flavor. Still Tasted ok but it could of been great if they gave a bit more love to the Carnitas. Feels like it was on the flat top to long. The Pastor Tacos were good as well, The onions, cilantro, and salsa they put on the the taco's was a good combination. The Pastor was seasoned good and had a nice spice level to it with a bit of sweetness. My only issue was that the Pastor like the Carnitas was tough and dry. Overall I liked the food and the price for what you get is a good deal for sure, just wished the Carnitas and Pastor were prepared a differently as it would have been a 5/5.
