Lucia’s Mexican Snack Cart: Authentic Mexican Treats in San Francisco

They were a little short staffed but they communicated well and I’d say the service is excellent. Really nice atmosphere and the watermelon margarita was delicious. The food was ok: you can’t really go wrong with queso fundido, it was delicious! The tuna tostada was quite good. The tacos on the other hand were only ok, a little meh, they have a lot of competition in the Mission for excellent tacos and these were average … Heart broken after only one dessert choice.

Came in on a Friday night and had a great experience. We ordered 10 tacos (2 chicken, 2 beef, 1 carnitas, 1 vampiro, 2 fish, 2 shrimp) and had 1 strawberry margarita and 1 pineapple. The service was amazing. Glasses never ran dry, always asked if we needed anything and the food came out quickly as well. The chips and salsa (complimentary) were really good the first round, the second round the sauce viscosity was to liquid The only complaint I have about the dinning experience was a group who were louder than the rest of the establishment combined. This kind of made for an annoying dinning experience.

Tacolicious is an understatement! Oh my goodness these tacos were so delicious. And each of them had different flavors that left us wanting more BUT we just couldn’t. I’m telling you go in hungry and be ready to eat. Then, for good measure take a walk because you’re going to need to walk off those calories! I’m so glad we chose this place. As fair warning the tacos are spicy so if you’re sensitive to spice let them know ahead of time. Other than that I’m so hopeful you’re going to #enjoy your experience here

Loved our dinner at Tacolicious! Tacos were fresh and flavorful (especially the carnitas and fish taco). Friendly staff, great vibe — definitely a place to check out if you’re craving Mexican food in San Francisco!

I'm pushing towards five stars because I think they deserve it I went in during happy hour and had two little crispy tacos with chicken that were actually really good. The chips and salsa that they give you to start...is perfect... The chips feel fresh and the salsa is that really good kind... Check out the picture. I didn't get any drinks with alcohol but they looked good as they passed by. The OJ and lemon soda was yummy. The environment is comfortable. Forget about parking, play the car far away and walk. The street of Valencia is slowly decomposing... It's unfortunate but hopefully it can survive.

Celebrated a birthday party with friends unfortunately my reservation was not ready when we got there but it did clear out shortly after ordering drinks in the bar at Mosto drinks are really good. Portion size to value has decreased recently but I really did enjoy my tamales and everyone else seem to enjoy their drinks and tacos. No one left hungry which was good. Service was really good but sometimes it can get really slow but the bar and restaurant took care of that for me so there are no complaints here. Happy to go back in an instant.

We went to Mission for dinner and decided to go Mexican. And this was a great choice as we were looking for assorted tacos. I liked the ambiance - we sat in the open patio with some cheerful lighting and frescoes. The service was quick and the staff were attentive and caring too. After munching through a bowl of fresh nachos with their home-made salsa, we ordered a pitcher of margarita and an assorted plate of tacos. All of them were great and we were glad we ordered the assortment of different tacos. Great place to visit with a nice cheerful crowd!

This is an unusal review because Lucia's isn't an actual restaurant...it's literally a cart parked at the busy intersection of Mission and 21st. The proprietess is a pretty and shy Mexian woman named Lucia who sells three traditional Mexian snacks, all of which involve chili powder and salt. Lucia's three trademark items are: - thickly sliced cucumber doused in lime juice, salt and chili powderr packaged in a sandwich bag. - sliced mango also doused in lime juice, salt and chili powder packaged in a sandwich bag. - hot boiled corn on the cob smeared with butter, chili powder, and grated Mexican cheese. By the way, you can opt to omit any of the seasonings but I always request EXTRA seasoning. I'm quite familiar with these healthy Mexican snacks from my childhood days of roaming the San Jose flea markets. Plus, these mix of ingredients are quite similar to some Asian snacks. Many of you will find the idea of mangoes sprinkled with salt a little odd, but surprisingly, the salt enhances both the sweetness and the flavor of the mango. Chili powder will simply appeal to those of you with a need for spice. And there's nobody who can argue with buttered corn...just try it at least once with the grated cheese...you'll be surprised at how good it is.
