my friends and I were searching for a place to hang out after work as well as a place that does taco Tuesday. So happy to have found Tacko. We've enjoyed several taco Tuesdays here! You can't beat $2 a taco. this place can get pretty packed but the line goes fast. You'll order and get a number and they will bring your food out when ready. Other tacos on the menu are also solid. I Enjoyed the seasoning of the fish on their Baja fish taco. read more

I just want to add to my review that on Tuesdays, Tacko has $3 Tecates three for $7 tacos. So it's $20 for you and a friend to eat!! So worth it and fun to sit inside or out. read more

Fantastic burrito spot! San Diego Carne Asada burrito is amazing. Plenty of seating in the restaurant and we received our food immediately. The service is always great and staff very friendly. Plenty of people seated inside and outside with room to spare. read more

Ok, this is a secret between just you and me, so keep it on the DL... They have a Taco Tuesday deal that I don't think many people know about. I'm not going to say that it's the most ~authentic~ taco, nor is it the absolute best taco in the city, but it's GOOD. It's a very, very solid street taco (it isn't the taco that's on their menu, which is more of a loaded taco situation), and I wouldn't have it any other way. My favorite is the carne asada! The chorizo is also very flavorful and fatty, but can be overwhelming if you eat more than 2 in a sitting. I've tried the chicken, but just not a fan. Go with Carne Asada--you won't regret it. Wonderfully smokey, meaty, delicious. I've also DoorDashed the burritos from here when I'm too lazy to cook--they're GENEROUS portions and come with chips when you order delivery/takeout! Their salsas are so addictive. My favorite is the red sauce! read more

Tacko - Mexican Near Me - San Francisco, California

It's my favorite taco when I'm in the San Francisco Marina district. The environment is nice, clean, and very welcoming. It's a nice place to eat in and enjoy your meal. The service is prompt and the staff is friendly. The food is delicious. My favorite is the Baja fish taco, Nick's way. Nicks way on the baja fish taco, fries the inner part of the tortilla, and comes with melted jack cheese and a nice glob of guacamole. I'd rate this taco a 10/10. If you're in the area, I suggest you give this spot a try. read more

Love this place, but haven't ordered in a while because I'm the stupid Keto diet. LOL. My coworkers decided to order today for office lunch. I really did think there was anything I could order, but I was wrong! I ordered the skinny quac which is guacamole with veggies. (I ordered with no carrots or jicama to keep it keto. So it was just cucumbers and radishes that are lightly seasoned. And I was able to get a side of their delicious carnitas! It was the perfect Keto meal! And I was super full! I am getting this every week now! read more

Super tasty comfort food in Cow Hollow. I had passed by Tacko a few times and today was the day I finally decided to try it. I was in a bit of a rush so I ordered the tortilla soup to go. I was very pleasantly surprised when I opened my bag and got complimentary chips and salsa. I started by snacking on those which were delicious and perfectly salty and crispy. I then moved on to the tortilla soup. The soup had lots of chicken but not many other toppings (e.g., besides avocado and a little clump of cheese). Also this tortilla soup is a lot more oily and watery - I usually like a more hearty, thick tortilla soup. However, it was really good and I gobbled up the entire thing. read more

Who knew New England's Nantucket could do Mexican? Tacko is a marina classic with delicious burritos and tacos. The service is great and the vibe inside is a fun mix of preppy and Mexican. My go to is the chicken California burrito; the individual street tacos are also very good (usually I go with carne asada). The salsas are VERY good with a decent amount of variety. read more

I could only write for the grilled fish taco. It looks well presented though it was lacking salt and flavor. It's a little dry too and missing a bit of mayo. Service is good and the staffs I interacted with were nice. Place itself is ok. Tables are bussed and well maintained. I wouldn't come back though as I wasn't happy with the taco I ordered. But the beer XX is really good. read more

My mom wanted to have lunch here she had a good experience prior so I figured I would try it out. This is my first time at Tacko! The Ambiance is inviting, light and cute! Chips and salsa definitely order it... fyi it's chips topped with the pico salsa. Now, let's move on to the fish tacos... grilled taco, good! Baja Fish tacos definitely need improvement, I got more battered than fish sadly!! Horchata I wouldn't order it again because it was so light that I couldn't taste much flavor! The service was AMAZING!!! read more

I don't understand the theme at all, but what I do understand is that the food is pretty good. I got a grilled fish burrito bowl. Portion sizes were decent. Could've used more seasoning but overall, I was very satisfied by the end of it. Was surprised to see fish taco and fish burrito bowl but no fish burrito. Will be back to try more items off the menu, or to see if they can make me a fish burrito. read more

Easy to get takeout on my way home, but nothing to write home about. Prices as expected for Mexican food on the Marina (so basically overpriced for anywhere else) read more

You walk through a small storefront into a sprawling place. I came early afternoon and it was sparse, maybe a half dozen actually, in a place that could probably seat 60 or more. All orders are at the counter, takeout or stay-in. A sprawling menu, too -- so much that you can't grasp the layout and categories until your food arrives. We chose a variety, and over-ordered (in part because the menu is so complex it's hard to understand pricing and sizes sometimes). But the tacos were delicious, to a one. Experienced counter staff are ready for you, and your order is delivered to the table if you stay in. There's also someone there to constantly clean up, though it's obvious that you should bus your own trash and sort it into compost, recycle and landfill. This one should definitely be a regular. read more

I've tried a couple of different things here, but my go-to is the Carne Asada Quesadilla. Their carne asada is very tender & well-seasoned, pico de gallo is fresh, cheese is soft, and tortilla is super crispy. You have the option to add sour cream & guacamole for additional $. I find that the quesadilla itself is already packed with flavor w/o any add-ons. The portion is very generous. I have a voracious appetite and half of the quesadilla w/ some chips & guac is enough to satiate me. If you're looking for something lighter, then I'd go for the Mexican "Street Style" Tacos which come in a set of 3 (see below for pro-tip). I also recommend getting the carne asada. The chicken is a bit dry. Carnitas is also a good option. Their 2 salsas are also amazing (love the red salsa on the tacos). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pro-Tips: 1) If you get your food to-go instead of dine-in, you get a bag of complimentary tortilla chips with each order. Not sure why you don't get it when you dine-in, but that's just how it is. 2) They have Taco Tuesday Deals for the Mexican "Street Style" Tacos. These "Street Style" tacos come in sets of 3 (they're small). It is $6 for 3, so $2 each on Tuesdays. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Items: Nick's Way Taco (4/5) - These are good, but quite heavy and much bigger than the "Street Style" tacos. 1-2 of these are enough to satisfy. I personally prefer the smaller "Street Style" tacos. Chips & Guac + Salsa (3/5) - Chips are bit thicker than I like, not very salted which would be fine if the guac was more salted but the guac is also lightly seasoned. I will say that the portion is generous and it is served in a big basket with guac and salsa on top of it, so I still get it pretty often. SF Burrito (3/5) - I'm not into burritos, and this didn't change my sentiment. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- P.S. for those who are more visual learners... "What makes this carne asada quesadilla so amazing?" Picture this. As you prepare to take your first bite, a small stream of flavorful juices trickles down your arm. You pause just long enough to wipe it away, savoring the anticipation that lingers in the air. Your teeth sink into the crispy embrace of a flour tortilla, yielding to the melty embrace of the finest jack cheese. Suddenly, a wave of savory ecstasy washes over your palate as the hot steak unveils its magnificence. The saltiness dances with the juiciness, an expertly choreographed symphony of flavors. Just as you think you've reached the pinnacle of taste, the pico de gallo bursts onto the scene. Its cool freshness complements the warmth of the steak, creating a breathtaking juxtaposition of flavors. In that moment, you can't help but close your eyes and your taste buds throw a wild party, dancing and celebrating this glorious fiesta of flavors. read more

Tacko - Carne Asada Quesadilla (10/10) - Mexican Near Me - San Francisco, California

This is hands down one of the best places to me to get Mexican food. I have Doordashed here about like 50 times this whole year and finally decided to go in person to the restaurant. Honestly the consistency they have is impeccable. There has never been a time where I was ever disappointed in what I ordered. When you DoorDash they always give me a side of chips! In the restaurant you have the option of indoor or outdoor. You order first then sit down. It's spacious and chill. The cashier was very nice and the servers as well. Loved the music and the variety of sauces available. I have tried almost everything on this menu and still have yet to be disappointed. When I visited in person I got the sopa de tortilla and it was honestly so fitting for the nice chilly night. It was honestly a big serving for a good price. I always get agua frescas, which they have many options. My boyfriend always get either the quesadilla or burrito and him also loves this place as much as me. Definitely a place to visit to get good food :) read more

Great burritos!! Wish they'd add surf & turf to menu. We order one steak & one shrimp and share both.

Tacko is an excellent Mexican spot in cow hollow, although I agree with many other reviews that it's not the most authentic or best Mexican spot in SF, it is delicious (and MUCH more convenient than the mission). Big fan of their street takes (a steal for $8) and also love the carne asada quesadilla read more

The Baja fish Nicks way taco and the carne bowl are fire!! Must go!!! The tortilla soup is also UNREALL. Salsa verde always fresh too.10/10!

I got a recommendation for this spot for their traditional and California style burritos so I was excited to try it out. I ordered a carnitas San Francisco burrito and a chicken California burrito via DoorDash. I don't usually order delivery especially Mexican for delivery because it's so difficult to tell the difference between salsas or figure out what kind of sides come with an order, but I was really hungry this night and figured I'd take my chances. San Francisco burrito: The tortilla was lightly toasted and was very soft at the ends. One of my usual burrito gripes is when the tortilla just layers and layers at the end leaving you with mouthfuls of dry tortilla to chew through before getting to any filling, which was not the case here. Another thing that I'd love to point out is that all the filling was evenly incorporated. It didn't taste like five different ingredients next to each other eaten at once, but as a cohesive whole. The carnitas were on the drier side and definitely not as greasy as it is in most other places. I was pleasantly surprised that I managed to finish the entire burrito because it wasn't falling apart due to soggy greasiness or just mouthfuls of dry tortilla at the other side. California burrito: Same as the San Francisco burrito in terms of tortilla quality and filling incorporation. The chicken was also on the dry side. I don't usually go for chicken and I'd definitely recommend the carnitas over the chicken here. The fries were a perfect texture, not soggy and disintegrating yet not raw and crunchy. This one was also fully polished off by the end of the meal. The burritos came with red and avocado salsa on the side as well as a bag of chips. I wish they'd offered one of each salsa per burrito as we were really rationing our salsa use to make it through both burritos. I'd recommend pairing the red salsa with the carnitas and the avocado salsa with the chicken. The tortilla chips were extremely crispy and greasy, they left a huge grease stain on the bag that they came in. They were too crispy for my personal liking, but many chips were double and triple layered as if they were made by stacking a number of tortillas, cutting into sixths, and then frying without separating each chip from one another fully. Nonetheless, they did come complimentary. read more

Tacko, get it? Because it's spelled funny? Tacko understands funny. Do they understand authentic Mexican food? I'm not sure that's what they are going for. It's sort of a funny like nautical themed place. My guess is because they really do that fish taco well. Id say that's the highlight. Nice size taco with a crispy piece of fish and a ton of guacamole. All surrounded by a crispy shell. I also had a burrito too and I'd was impressed with the fact that the California burrito had nice and still crispy fries in it. They must have fried them right before the burrito. They use a whole wheat tortilla for their burritos I believe. Interesting strategy... it didn't move me but it was different. Overall a decent little spot but I'm not going to call my mom about it. (4.0 stars) read more

Solid burrito, decent decor, and good seating! As a San Diego native, I feel like I know my burritos and while I won't say this is exactly what I dream about when I think of a burrito, it's really good! I got the SF burrito with carne asada. The meat was tender and seasoned very well. I felt like the ingredients could've been mixed a bit more because the meat settled to one side of it and cheese/other toppings to the other. There's a really good amount of meat and solid balance of the other toppings as well. However, I was underwhelmed by the tortilla! It was missing that chew that I get from a normal flour tortilla and this just felt a little bit off! It's a tiny bit on the smaller size, but for someone of my stature, it was filling! I could see someone maybe needing more food if they eat larger portions though. The pricing was decent and the decor was very modern and cute! The staff were nice and the service was very speedy and efficient. We stayed for a while talking and didn't feel rushed out at all! Not my go to spot in sf but definitely somewhere I'd go back to! read more

Yay! The corporate office lead, Megan, is buying the crew lunch. She told me to go online to order. I saw others ordered the Nick's Way Taco. One Carnitas taco w/ a crispy corn tortilla wrapped in a soft tortilla w/ Monterey jack cheese, pinto beans, pico de gallo, and guacamole. Damn. That's nothing special. A $12 taco? Okay. Da bomb! All the Mexican flavors come together. It's as big as a burrito! There's a garlicky sauce that is crack! And what's up with the chips with salsa and guacamole? The chips are home fried and salted nice. Mucho bueno for a $12 taco! read more

The "Nicks Way" fish taco is outstanding. One the best ever. I happened to go here by default as I couldn't get into the restaurant I wanted. Next time, this will be the restaurant l want first. read more

I'll be honest. I was expecting the worst when my friends wanted to grab Mexican in the Marina. And when I saw the Nantucket decorations my fears were only validated. But what didn't validate them? The food. The tacos, though maybe not the most authentic, are certainly far from the white people tacos my mom would make. I had Nick's style which was so so good. The tacos are hefty, cheesy and crispy. It's really a carnival for your mouth. You definitely spend more on tacos than you'd like, but it's a lot of food, and you can easily make up for it with their absurdly low-priced pitchers. read more
