Latin street eats & cocktails with stunning city views
"El Techo is where we go whenever cold margaritas with a city view call out to us. This lively yet laidback Mission spot is the ideal rooftop bar: there are umbrellas in case it’s too bright, heaters for when it’s too cold, and also a pretty solid menu of Latin American snacks and larger plates, like fish tacos, chicharrones, and a decent chicken adobo with rice and beans that’s also big enough to share." - lani conway, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
"When the sun is shining in the Mission, head to El Techo. The dinner and weekend brunch menus are filled with solid Latin American dishes and strong drinks, but the downtown views from the rooftop make a meal here special. Saturday afternoons are when everyone has the same idea to ogle the skyline from here, so plan ahead and make a reservation." - julia chen 1, patrick wong, ricky rodriguez
"One of the best happy hour views in town can be found at this rowdy rooftop bar, accompanied by $5 cervezas, $7 margaritas, $18 sangria pitchers, plus bar bites that range from guacamole to empanadas. It can get quite crowded, especially on a sunny afternoon so plan to arrive on the earlier side. Hours: Tuesday through Friday, 4 to 6 p.m." - Flora Tsapovsky
"El Techo is a rare San Francisco rooftop bar: there are umbrellas in case it’s too bright, heaters for when it’s too cold, and excellent margaritas and palomas. On top of that, the views from this Mission spot are basically unbeatable. And while drinking, you might get hungry. El Techo has a menu of mostly Latin American snacks and larger plates, like some solid fish tacos, chicharrones, and tacos de canasta with potatoes." - lani conway, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
"When there’s no fog in sight, go to El Techo in the Mission. The dinner and weekend brunch menu of broadly Latin American snacks and plates is nothing special, but that doesn’t really matter because the downtown views are gorgeous. And the drinks are strong, so embrace the “I don’t want to remember this meal” party vibe going down on the roof at sunset. You can walk in, but make a reservation—especially on a Saturday afternoon when everyone has the same idea to ogle at the skyline. " - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong, lani conway
