Taco Cantina

We have been serving fresh tacos in North Beach since January 2018. Inspired by Jorge’s love for the food of San José de Gracia, Jalisco, our story began with a simple goal: bring genuine Mexican cuisine to SF using the best local ingredients - the same approach that first earned attention through Jorge’s earlier concept, Pa’dentro, known for ceviches and tacos.

XICA short for Cocina Xicana is a family owned Mexican kitchen & bar. Chef Maria Elena & Ignacio craft bold, Mexican dishes & cocktails from scratch using locally sourced ingredients. Blending their Northern Mexican roots with Bay Area flair, XICA serves up a perfect balance of tradition and modern. Step into a space that feels like Mexico City meets San Francisco—and savor elevated flavors with heart. Our kitchen is 100% gluten-free with flavorful Mexican dishes so good, you’d never guess! Nestled in the charming, historic Levi’s Plaza near Coit Tower—with ample parking just steps away.

Welcoming neighborhood spot for locals and tourists, tasty Mexican food with house specialty margaritas, six beers on tap, and friendly staff. Opening first day of summer, Tuesday, June 21st!

Barrio is an agave bar and Latin kitchen, overlooking the San Francisco Bay. With an expansive patio and rotunda dining room with floor to ceiling windows, delivering an incredible view, our restaurant is the perfect place to gather with family and friends. Enjoy seasonal craft cocktails, local beer, and Latin-inspired cuisine featuring tacos with housemade heirloom blue corn tortillas, ceviche, salads, burritos, and more! We look forward to hosting locals and tourists for lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch in our large and festive space in the iconic Ghirardelli Square.

Our welcoming space and friendly service—daytime or late-night—make every visit feel like dining with friends. Planning an event?
