Sutter Street Taqueria

This place is the true meaning of "hole in the wall". I've been meaning to try food here but am not often in this part of town. My kids and I went here for lunch and this is what we experienced...

Service: We were greeted right away. I tend to get anxious to try to places because it can take me time to order. So I appreciated that there was no pressure to order quickly. Payment was quick and easy. We got or food out quickly but I am mindful that we ordered right before the lunch crowd came in.

Food: Delicious! I only bought food for the kids but after having a bite, I ended up ordering my own plate. Staff helped me with making a decision and ordered their super taco with carnitas. It was soooo good. The portion was just right since I didn't want something too small or too big either. In general, meat portions were excellent. I also love their salsas which I feel can make or break the meal.

Location: There isn't a lot of dining inside but there are areas outside you can sit and eat. You wouldn't be able to have a large party here. This side of town can get a bit busy too, so parking can get difficult depending on the day. But the food here definitely overrules this for me.

I would definitely come here again and consider them for catering for future events.

The bad reviews are from people expecting Taco Bell flavors this is not Taco Bell. Growing up eating moms authentic Mexican food I can say Mexican food always has its very own personal flavors and so does this place very simple flavorful food been here about 5 times I'll be back.

This place deserves all the great hype it can get. By far, it's the best version of a Mission-style burrito that I've found outside of the Mission. Our group had people who didn't like spice, vegetarians, and others with food allergies, and everyone found something to eat here (and everyone raved about their food). My only wish was that I had saved enough room to get some nachos. Next time!

Second time trying this place and now know we definitely won't be back. The food is just okay. Not much flavor. Rather blah. I order the Al Pastor taco and husband ordered carnitas burrito. Both were unremarkable. Don't know how this place is staying in business??
The owner needs to eat at Taco Loco and take some notes!

I am sorry but it just wasn't good. My taco was just meat and beans. Who puts beans in their taco? The burritos were bland and mostly rice and beans. The shrimp in the shrimp taco looks like it's still frozen and the corn tortilla was still cold. I'm all for supporting local businesses but the product has to be at least decent.

Sitting right next to Reset on Sitter Street sits this little taqueria. I was able to call in my order so that I could just stop by to pick it up. They said it would take about 10 minutes so off we went. We arrived in 15 and they were furiously making our tacos still. The crew of teenage boys was very nice and I had my food within 10 minutes of arrival. 18 street tacos for $71 is a bit pricey, but let's see how it tastes.

Grilled chicken - 2/10 - Soooooo dry I'm actually amazed at how dry they got that. I can feel my soul being sucked into the chicken
Shredded chicken - 3/10 - Plain boiled chicken...no spices on it whatsoever
Chicken Chile verde - 4/10 - Where's the Chile verde? It tasted mostly of shredded chicken and I couldn't find much sauce

Carnitas - 5/10 - My wife makes a more flavorful and crispy yet tender version and she just learned how.
Carnitas Chile verde -

Carne Asada - 6/10 - Decent flavor but I prefer smaller dices in my tacos. Could use more seasoning.

Well, I was pretty disappointed in all of the tacos BUT I will say that they have a very friendly staff and they put a huge portion of meat in every taco. The tortillas were also very fresh tasting but I simply cannot recommend anybody go here. Sorry fellas!

Stopped here for a quick bite. The best thing was the cashier - she was a boss! Got our order right, had the food out fast!

Typical Mexican fare. Ok prices.

Ate here for first time. Friendly staff. Food was made within 5 minutes. Ate a veggie burrito (pinto bean, rice, pico, lettuce, guac, sour cream, cheese) and a regular burrito (rice, meat, beans, chees, pico). The burrito quality is average and so is the size. They put a ton of rice in both burritos. They didn't put much of other stuff. Rice is good. But I wish they'd proportion it better. They put very little pico in the burritos too.

I asked for no meat in my regular burrito. I asked for them to add a little more of rice or something to make up the difference. *They don't make substitutes or add more to make up if you leave something out.* charge 25 cents per water cup. 10.25 for the regular burrito. 12.25 for the veggie burrito (same price as a super burrito They sell). Restaurant clean. Music. Outdoor seating and indoor. Becsuse of the customer experience and the quality of taste of burritos I dont think I'll come back. Sad.

We were in town for a work conference. This restaurant was within walking distance from our hotel. The food was fresh and served quickly. The pinto beans were delicious! The carne asada was good be could have used a little more flavor. The employees were extremely helpful and provided outstanding service. The red salsa had a kick to it and was delicious!

We decided to go to Sutter street Taqueria on a day when atmospheric river was pouting down. We got a table next to the window to watch the rain and enjoy the food. Such a wonderful experience. Food was great and so was the service. The owner came and chatted with us for a few minutes as well.
