    First time at Taqueria Pacifica and it was pretty good. I went in at 11 am on Sunday and there was no line. The service was nice and quick. I like the salsa bar that has limes, jalapenos you don't see that at many taquerias. The inside is spacious with plenty of seating. I liked all the salsas: green, red and orange all firreee! My super al pastor burrito had great flavor and was packed with filling. The only downside was some of the pork were not that tender. But I'll be back to try the others like fish/shrimp. Street parking only.

    Best Taco Tuesday anywhere! Excellent choice of meats. It is rare to see street tacos with this much meats!

    I had a fish taco and a shrimp taco, and my husband had a regular beef burrito. Everything was freshly made and delicious. The grilled shrimp and fish were especially good. The interior of the restaurant was clean and pleasant with well-spaced tables, and there are also a few tables outside - but on a typical chilly day in Pacifica, we preferred the indoor seating.

    Very solid taco spot. I always get carne asada, al pastor, and chicken tacos when trying a place to test it out and all three here were great. Including chips with (I think it was) purchases of more than $10 was super nice. Staff was friendly and dining space clean. Would definitely come back if in the area, but I tend to reserve 5 stars for places I'd drive well out of my way for.

    The best street style tacos I had 2 al pastor and a steak taco and of course el jarrito yum! Recommend this place if you're in Pacifica.

    Wife and I wanted to grab a quick bite nearby mori point after our walk. We found Taqueria Pacifica. When we got there, we knew we went to the right place. There was a line out the door, a salsa bar and free chips. The place looked and felt authentic, lively, and welcoming. I killed my Al Pastor Super Burrito in no time. My wife, who never finishes her plate, completely devoured every last bite of her chile verde. Our picky little rice-obsessed kid actually reached for the lengua and liked it. We are definitely coming back again.

    Not bad

    Solid 3 if you're craving Mexican for the day. Come on we talking San Francisco with plenty of options but also Location Location Location. Like me this is close by so I decided to give them a chance. Young lady at register is nice place is big and open with a smell of cleaning products. Felt like I was in another country tbh. Read the comments and they are correct. Steak is dry dry dry with no flavor..chicken taste good but way tooooo much seasonings. If you're craving it and don't want to get sick eating Taco Bell give them a chance.

    This place is really close to my parent's house and I go here every-time I crave some tacos. Service is always fast and there is a lot of space inside. I ordered carnitas tacos, carne asada taco, and a carnitas crunchy taco. They all came loaded with toppings and were delicious. There's a self serve sauce and chips bar, which I appreciate. This was my first time getting the crunchy taco and it might just be my new favorite. The shell was crispy and the guacamole was a great touch. Everything is affordable and I recommend giving this place a try if you're ever in Pacifica.

    Shrimp quesadillas and chicken nachos, plus a white wine (from TableWine next door). Delicious!

    Great food and friendly service at this family owned establishment. So many options & all are delicious! They will deliver to the wine bar next door, which is a plus. Love Taqueria Pacifica!

    The four of us are branching out for our 19th hole after finishing a round of golf at nearby Sharp Park. We arrived around 12:30pm. It's counter service. The menu is posted overhead behind the counter. What we ordered- * Hubby went with the carne asada taco salad. * I got two item combo - carne asada enchilada & grilled chicken tostada. Hubby's order came first. Nice portion size. The taco shell was snappy. His carne asada grilled perfectly. Mine came a couple minutes later. The items looked great. I ate the enchilada first. Yummy. Then the tostada. As I got to the meat it was charred and not chicken. Many pieces were burnt. I picked around it. A little disappointed. Like they didn't want to toss out the meat. Just hide it. If it weren't for that....

Although it was counter service to order and we sat ourselves, they brought our meals to our table on cute plates and boy were they full. You could smell the seasonings as they were brought to your table. Everything was fresh and when I say delicious, I mean delicious! My family absolutely devoured their plates. Really good portions and I ended up having to bring home my leftovers. My son has been here in the past visit visiting his auntie and highly recommends the breakfast burritos. I caught myself swinging my feet under the table and humming like a little kid as I ate. It felt like the entire staff said goodbye to us as we left. We will definitely be returning absolutely delicious food. The only downfall is not the restaurant itself. It's the parking and the Absolutely crappy drivers who don't know how to park outside just a heads up.

We very rarely go here, though. It had been a very long time, over a decade, since we ordered food from them, so I nearly forgot why they are not one of our usual spots. DJ told me that the food is underwhelming, that's why. I didn't remember this, so I gave them another try on October 3, 2025. We had an appointment at Banfield, but I was starving. So I decided to drop in very quickly for something little and easy to eat while at the vet appointment. The small eatery, of likely a maximum occupancy of around sixty to seventy persons in the dining room, appeared to be semi-clean. Tables looked like they could have used a good wiping, but I wasn't concerned about that since I was ordering take-out. They have a chips and salsa bar at the end of the dining room which looked decent enough to trust the offerings, but, again, the counters could have used a wipe-down. I initially was going to order a taco or two, but decided that a tamal would be easier to eat without making a mess. According to a posted sign at the counter, tamales, sweet corn or chicken, are supposed to be $3.50 each. I say "supposed to be" because despite what their sign says, my receipt shows me that I was actually charged $3.64 for one, plus tax. Not cool. It's only a $0.14 difference, but this should never happen, ever. I recall pointing out the price difference to the cashier to which I was given some bogus response. I was too much in a hurry to get into a debate with her. As for the taste, the flavour of the chicken was not bad, but overall, the tamale was DRY. My tamal had a thin layer of sauce on top and the inside could have used some kind of moisture, either from cheese or sauce. After the appointment at Banfield, for the convenience, I returned to Guerrero's #2 to buy dinner for the family (Super Burrito for $15.08, Veggie Burrito for $13.00, Taco Plate for $18.20 + a Flauta for $3.00, and 2 Large Horchatas for $10.40, totaling $65.58 inclusive of tax). DJ reiterated that the food was meh...and I finally remembered how we found their menu items to be subpar. Service is usually fairly quick and decently friendly, though. I will refer to this yelp review of mine to serve as a reminder as to why we don't frequent Guerrero's Taqueria #2, in case I forget again.

Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. The chicken taco ($5.99) was good, but there was no wow factor. The chicken had decent flavor, but everything else felt pretty basic for a nearly $6 taco. The crunchy taco ($5.99) was probably the most disappointing. It reminded me of a small supermarket-style hard taco shell. The chopped steak inside was actually good, but it was heavily covered in shredded cheese. Then there's the Super Taco ($7.99). This one is a skip for me. It was loaded with cheese and watery guacamole, while the al pastor was drenched in sauce and seasoning. There was so much going on that I couldn't really appreciate the meat itself. That's roughly $20 for three tacos before tax... and ultimately, they still felt like fairly basic tacos made with basic ingredients. We also ordered the chicken quesadilla, and I'll give them this: it was MASSIVE. Definitely not lacking in portion size. But again, there was so much cheese, and the chicken was diced so finely that I found myself questioning the overall quality and freshness rather than appreciating the chicken. Surprisingly, my favorite part of the meal was the complimentary chips and green salsa. The green salsa had a nice kick and great flavor. Interestingly, though, our two cups tasted completely different one was flavorful and spicy, while the other was noticeably bland. After everything, we somehow walked out spending around $45 after tipping at checkout. That's where this place loses me. I'm willing to pay more for good food, and I understand restaurant prices have gone up everywhere. But when you're charging $5.99-$7.99 per taco, the quality has to justify it. The food wasn't terrible. It just wasn't memorable enough for the price. If you're coming here expecting elevated tacos to match the elevated price, I would temper those expectations.

Started with maragaritas and I have never had a maragarita served in this manner (see photos).

Had the usual chips & salsa but the salsa was freshly roasted and smoky a surprising texture and flavor. I had the chile relleno which was the puffiest relleno I've ever had. So delicious, melt in your mouth, filled with so much cheese it oozed cheese everywhere on the plate. The other dish was a cheese enchilada traditional plate but the largest enchilada I've ever seen. Both dishes were served with rice and beans (black & refried). This restaurant served hearty plates of traditional Mexican dishes that were above par and well oh so good. Staff were friendly and accommodating. A place I hope to return to sooner than later.

Our food came out quickly, which was probably the only positive besides the michelada. The tacos were also disappointing.
