Stopped by the Taco Bell Cantina and it was definitely a unique twist on a classic fast food spot. The location feels a bit different from your typical Taco Bell and has a fun lively atmosphere. The coolest thing about this location is that serve alcoholic slushies, which you definitely don't see at most Taco Bell locations. It was fun to grab the usual Taco Bell favorites while also trying a frozen drink. I would like to note you can drink them outside of the restaurant! Overall, its a cool stop if you're in San Francisco and want something quick but a little different. The slushies make it worth checking out. read more

I don't know what kind of training is happening at this location, but I've been here multiple times only to get terrible service and cold, soggy tacos. I utilize the mobile app to order ahead. Whenever I went to pick up my order, the workers would give me different information about my food, leaving me waiting for 15 min more than necessary to get my food. By the time I get it, it's already cold and soggy. The food would be sitting there the entire time ready, but they tell me to wait for it at the locker outside. Makes no sense if I'm standing in front of them, the food is in sight, and I still have to go over to a locker, only for them to never put it in there! Then when I go back inside after waiting 15 min, another worker will hand me my food saying it was there the entire time and that it was a window pick up like I'm the one in the wrong! This is the most ridiculous service system I've ever encountered. I'd rather drive 20 min to a different location than deal with the ridiculous service with no apologies after expressing my frustration. read more

Taco Bell Cantina at Fisherman's Wharf is a delightful twist on the classic Taco Bell experience, think your favorite comfort fast food, but with a grown-up flair. Walking in, it felt like every millennial's dream, nostalgia with a cocktail twist! The highlight? The bartender was a sweet, funny, older blonde lady who made us feel right at home. The drinks were simple and just right not too strong, just a perfect sip with your Mexican pizza. And yes, they serve it on a tray just like the Taco Bell you know only now you can pair it with a little booze,. The décor was modern, tons of TVs. Casual, fun and affordable place to hang out. Nostalgic with a little boozy! Very clean! Great service. read more

Probably the fanciest Taco Bell in the Bay Area comparable to the one in Pacifica that everyone loves, but without the cool views. People really only come here for the cheap eats and the boozy slushies. Be prepared for a slight increase in prices, say about 10% more, but I think its worth it for the ambiance. And by ambiance I mean thay Taco Bell purple weird decor. Tried their new cheese beef dip and their potato and beef burrito, nothing great, tastes like a regular Taco Bell to me. Most of it is self service throught the kiosk so that you avoid talking to a real human. read more

Taco Bell - Fast Food Near Me - San Francisco, California

Not sure why Yelp listed it as Taco Bell and not Taco Bell Cantina even though it's a cantina. Anyway, we decided to stop by for dinner on our way to Bart since we were biking all day. It was pretty busy at 6pm on a Saturday, especially since it's near Fisherman's Wharf. I'm glad that they had a bunch of kiosks available to place orders because I'm sure it would be a headache to have to wait in line. We ordered a few items and my favorites were the nachos, cantina crispy chicken taco, and nacho fries. We also ordered a Premium Tequila Strawberry Margarita and it was a vibe drinking it since the bottle reminded me of Fat Tuesdays. Eating Taco Bell again after so many years feels so nostalgic, and I think it's one of the best fast food chains. read more

WHY IS THE MUSIC SO LOUD?!?!? That was my first and only thought walking into club Taco Bell. The music is so loud, you can't even hear the employees call your order. Clearly this shows my old age. If you're a twenty one year old college student or tourist, you ll absolutely love this place. There's alcoholic slushies, screwballs, and a vast array of different types of drinks to choose from. They have their classic menu items, some that are Cantina elevated which is fun. But ultimately you're at T BELL, the place you want to be at the end of a drunk night. read more

I love Taco Bell spicy potato tacos for $2.00. They're so good! This location in Fisherman's Wharf is a great addition to the strip. But...there's no bathroom. The beers are $10 and it's Taco Bell. So no happy hour. Order your tacos and sit and enjoy cheap food in a great location. You'll just have to hold it if you need to use a bathroom or place to wash your hands. read more

This location is a fun addition to a relatively sleepy strip of businesses in The Wharf. True to the over-the-top chain/franchise theme in the area, Taco Bell Cantina offers all the cheap mass-produced addictive classics. Furthermore, this location offers boozy sugary refreshments in neon colors, perfect for brightening up Instagram or Yelp review feeds. Don't expect a life-changing experience here- it's a fast food pitstop that gets the job done. I personally enjoyed a casual cheap thrill dinner here for under $20. read more

So excited that there's a Taco Bell in the area (especially a Cantina!) literally been manifesting this haha. There's a bunch of kiosks where you can order your food and a pick up counter once your food is ready. We got our food fairly quickly, found seats without issues (even with a good amount of people inside). There's a bar area with 5 TVs so you can watch sports while having a drink and enjoying some good ol food. They also have non-alcoholic freeze drinks too. We got the Mango freeze and it was a 10/10. Def recommend and will come back! read more

This is a good Taco Bell Cantina. They have a slightly different menu and has Taco Bell merchandise. Ordering can be done at the self kiosk. On my first try, the touchscreen crash. I had to use another kiosk. The restaurant was busy. Only a few tables were available. It took about 20 minutes for my drinks to come out. It was two margaritas at $9.50 each. After 20 minutes, I asked about my drinks. The worker said to go to the bar. The bartender hasn't started on them yet. She should check on the orders more often or hire more bartenders. At least she was cool about it. read more

This tbell is chaotic in all the ways tbell should be--it is loud, a little dirty, crowded (annoyingly by people who are waiting AT the pickup counter, blocking others' access), they pump throwback hits that are great, and despite it being crowded, table turnover is pretty high. The best part is that they do a REAL frying job on their potatoes and chalupa shells. I don't know what it is about the frying timers, but other tbells always mess up a chalupa shell. I had almost given up hope. As a SF local, I avoid fisherman's wharf at all costs...but this tbell is worth the trek. read more

Might as well order from a regular Mexican restaurant.. this place is slooooooow. Waited 30 minutes for 4 items.

I live nearby so I was very excited when this new TB cantina opened. Every time I order food, it's wrong or missing items. It's fast food so I never expect perfection, but now that they've served me a beef burrito as a vegetarian I'm extremely upset. I ordered the black bean grilled cheese burrito directly from the vegetarian menu and confirmed my order as well. Took a bite and got a mouthful of beef. Never mind the last two times I went and they forgot an item in each order. This location is nice inside, but the bar is all it really has going right now. read more

Taco Bell - Inside - Fast Food Near Me - San Francisco, California

Being born and raised in San Francisco most of my dining experience was at a local mom and pop restaurants. Fast food places in San Francisco were really not available like in the surburbs and other cities. Wendy's is no longer in San Francisco. There is no Chick- Fil-A and no Dunkin Donuts which are top 10 fast food chains in America. San Francisco is truly a fast food desert. It's interesting when a new fast food place opens up in San Francisco because it's a rarity to locals and to outsiders it's why they went to San Francisco trying to escape. I am not saying there is no Kings but there are more Super Duper Burger locations than Burger King in SF. I did end up at a Taco Bell Cantina on a Winter break stroll in the tourist trap in Fishermans Wharf. As a native San Franciscan getting fast food Mexican food is going to a Mission District local Taqueria and getting a burrito. This Taco Bell Cantina was surprisingly welcoming and it also had a bar with some Grand Mariner , Don Julio ( not to be mistaken for Don Juan) Grey Goose, and Jameson. Inside you see a purple decor and kiosk to order your drinks and food. It also had a bar with televisions so can watch sports like the football games. I do eat one thing at Taco Bell and it's their nachos. My favorite types of nachos are stadium nachos at concerts and sporting events. It's like how I enjoy my Philly Cheese steak, I prefer cheese whiz over provolone cheese pull in SF. These vegetarian nachos were good after a few drinks and watching some football. They were cheesy like some in SF. A good place to land if you are looking for some nachos and drinks at the tourist trap at Fisherman's Wharf by the water in SF( it's not like Taco Bell in Pacifica by the water). Not much "fast food" in most San Francisco residential "neighborhood "this is the place to watch football games and baseball games where Los Angeles sport teams will get "booed "and you can get some adult beverages to get in the "mood" This is different than your ordinary Taco Bell "store"it has a different layout and a purple "decor "when it comes to Taco Bell only locations in San Francisco there less than "four" at this location you can enjoy some cheesy nachos with an alcoholic drink with an extra shot "pour" read more

Modern in black and white (maybe to differentiate from In and Out next door too?) is the new Taco Bell at fisherman's wharf. Order at the kiosk and pay by cc or cash at the pickup counter, then wait for them to call your name when the order is ready. There is a full bar and 12 slushes stations that include a few cocktail slushes. Seating includes the bar area, booths and regular/high tables. No bathroom though. read more

The new Taco Bell at Fisherman's Wharf is honestly a solid option, especially for such a busy tourist area. The place is brand new, clean, and well organized. Staff was moving fast, our order came out right, and the food tasted fresh for Taco Bell standards. No complaints there. The big surprise is that they serve alcohol. Being able to grab a beer or a boozy freeze with your tacos while walking around the Wharf is actually pretty great, especially when everything else nearby is overpriced or packed. It's not trying to be anything fancy, but when you want something quick, familiar, and affordable--this location makes a lot of sense. Definitely a good stop if you're in the area and don't feel like dealing with a sit-down restaurant. read more

I wanted to try out Taco Bell cantina for awhile and was excited to see one open up in San Francisco. The parking is rough since it's near the pier. But once you find parking it's ok. It's near in and out burgers. It was really packed on a Saturday and it was confusing on how to order /pickup. My friend and family Dr cided if we should order from the computers or mobile app. But I had a coupon which required me to order from the app only. There is no one there to assist in taking orders. The music was loud and it was just packed wall to wall of people. We ended up ordering out items to try out but when it said my order was ready I went up to the pick up counter. But they food was not there. Then after 3 people picked up their orders I was asked mobile order? I replied yes, then a gentleman said outside press the first the letters of my name. I went out and tried 3 times and it said order not ready. Then another group told me enter the first three letters. I tried and it didn't work again. And it turned out to be they were waiting for their orders too. There was also another guy I saw and after chatting we both were inside waiting for our orders at least 5 to 10mins without guidance of where to pickup. After 4tries I went back inside and asked for help. And one nice lady went around the corner and asked. I then went back out to check the pickup lockers outside. And the screen was frozen. And the lady had to get someone to unlock it from their end to hand me our order. In all this chaos, another customer who I saw outside waiting went back inside to order more food. Her order was at the counter for pickup even tho her first order was from the mobile app. Which was suppose to be picked up outside in the lockers. read more

This review is for the bar. This Taco Bell Catina has bar and several kiosks for ordering. Inside looks clean and slight upscale decoration than typical Taco Bell. Kiosks is easy to operate. The alcohol is only for dine in. I ordered Baja blast icy with premium vodka. You get option to add extra shot. I didn't order extra shot which I am glad because the drink is strong but it is nice that you get option to add extra shot. Price is around $15-16 for a 16oz with premium vodka. They also have their own wine which I would like to try when I have chance to go again in the future. read more

This is THEE slowest service I have ever experienced. I have been waiting for my order now for 22 min. It's not the fault of the woman working in the kitchen, because from what I can tell they are INCREDIBLY UNDERSTAFFED. I have a clear line of sight into the kitchen and have only seen one woman preparing food for a seriously busy location. It's now been 24 min... And no sign my order is showing up soon. Very very annoying. read more

This location needs to be shut down. The first time they messed up EVERY item in my order. Gave me food I can't even eat. Then they cancelled two orders back to back. The last time they delivered just a bag of hot sauce. read more

Taco Bell - Just Hot Sauce Packet - Fast Food Near Me - San Francisco, California

Don't pass up the chance to try a Taco Bell Cantina, especially one that's newly opened. Bad news which knocks off a star: the bathrooms are outside in some obscure hallway of non-labeled doors (good luck finding which one) where a lock code is required. Be sure you either remember it or write it on your hand once the buzz from your slushie kicks in and your memory starts to fade! On to the good news. There are several self-service kiosks to get your order going quickly. Diana behind the bar is a gem, so make friends with her. If you see the GM James floating around, he's a great guy to get acquainted with as well. There's plenty of indoor seating, but I guarantee once summer comes around, be ready to grab and go because this place will be chaotic. read more

I'm trying to break the 28 reviews logger-jam! Food was okay! Nice to wash it all down with a Margarita!

Service is so slow nobody here knows anything. Supporting fast food restaurants like taco bell really shows how uneducated people are. These workers do not speak english and don't deserve to be here if they aren't legal. The environment here is ghetto and unsafe especially when workers don't look sober read more

I ordered from this taco place, but I only got two sauces. When I went back to get more, the guy at the window told me quite abruptly, 'Did you order from us? Then give me 2 more. read more

Review only based on the location, because the food is Taco Bell.... so yeah. First impression of the location is how small it is, for some reason I was thinking it would be much bigger. Secondly, WHY IS THE MUSIC SO DAMN LOUD?!? I mean, it's so loud you can't even hear the person across from you. Because of that, everyone in the place has to raise their voices to try and have a conversation. It's so loud the guy calling out orders can't even be heard in the 30x15' dining area. read more

Alright.. Taco Bell is good. The food is yummy, and I enjoy eating it. But the building itself? Nasty, Loud and chaotic! Food spilled all over the floor, drinks on tables left un-cleaned from other customers. and the workers don't even wanna work there.. One of your workers, continually forgot key parts of my order. Like my avocado salsa. My Taco, and my cinnamon balls. The food ? Great! but when night comes? IM BLOWING THE BATHROOM UP! Whatever Fiber your putting in my Crunchwrap Supreme, and my extra beans, double cheese, SPICY SAUCED, Cantina Burrito with Burnt Crunchy Cheese, and my Soft Taco? STOP! BECAUSE MY BUTT BURNS! read more

Staff was very welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Definitely the most hospitality I've ever seen in a Taco Bell. Food was great and quick. Frank's Red Hot Taco was 10/10- will particularly be back for that. Went around 11:30am on a Monday and it wasn't too busy yet- quiet and half of the space was full. read more

We gave it a break and then ordered again today for delivery (they use DoorDash) and once again items were missing from our order...two taco Supremes to be specific and I just don't understand what's going on? Either they have no quality control because somebody should be checking off items that are going into each order or as I said previously, the drivers are taking items and eating them because they're hungry. It also takes forever for them to respond and the phone number doesn't work because I thought I could call and speak to a manager and ask them to oversee these orders better but it's not an option. I guess I'm gonna have to go down there and speak to a manager in person. read more
