Tacos on the corner. That’s where you find the best taquerias in Mexico. The same goes for San Francisco. Just around the corner from Market Street, in the heart of the Financial District at the gateway of SOMA, Uno Dos Tacos has created a taco oasis: a colorful Mexican plaza with indoor/outdoor dining, picnic tables, umbrellas and a totally simpatía atmosphere. Homemade and deeply personal, Chef Luis Flores practices the family tradition of slow-cooking, from his native state of Guadalajara, nurturing his carne asada, carnitas, lengua, simmered shredded chicken tinga, and beer-battered (Negra Modelo) pescado. Vegetarian dishes get the same attention to detail and quality ingredients. To top everything off, tortillas and salsas are made fresh and carefully crafted daily to bring out the flavors of each taco. Uno Dos Tacos also hosts a tequila bar that lets you explore over 50 different tequilas (from the beet-infused to a very smoking habanero), over 30 mezcals, and a world of other Mexican refreshments and signature cocktails.
