"Green Chile Cafe, Nopa by Upperquad. Mexican cuisine, in San Francisco, is woven into the fabric of everyday life. New Mexican cuisine, however, isn't as prevalent. Green Chili Cafe provides a little taste of Santa Fe, including some incredible stews and slow roasted red chile pork. The setting is casual and the food is delicious."

"Green Chile Kitchen, a taste of New Mexico in SF, is closing after 14 years in business later this month. The restaurant’s stews, Mary’s rotisserie chickens, and Frito pies will leave 1801 McAllister after Sunday, September 15. Restaurant employees were reportedly informed of the coming closure today, and a representative has posted a farewell to fans on Instagram. Owner Trevor Logan opened Green Chile kitchen in 2006, showcasing New Mexico’s famous chiles (sourced from the family-owned farm Bueno) in dishes like posole and smothered burritos. The typically bustling restaurant has been a constant presence in NoPa since back when everyone still called it the Western Addition, anchoring a boom in the area’s food businesses." - Caleb Pershan

Really good Mexican style food. Ordered and they went above and beyond to serve us. Refills, silverware. Little things to make sure we were enjoying our visit as guests.

Coming from Albuquerque, I was a little skeptical about having New Mexican food in San Francisco... But all skepticism was gone after having my first bite! Not gonna lie, the stuffed sopapilla was better than a lot of places in abq! Haha

The vegan sweet potato tamales with tomatillo sauce are my fave! (I always ask for 'mild green' sauce but sometimes it is comes out really spicy, so double check if you're sensitive to heat!) I've eaten here a lot and it's always been delicious, the new menu is great for vegetarian/vegans too, but last time my carniverous-leaning friend got food poisoning after eating a burrito here, so I'm not sure what is going on with that...

Nice place, offering a wide selection of Mexican and Hispanic food options. Was impressed to see they had fresh roasted and frozen hatch chilies, that were used in their dishes and also for sale. A good place to eat and drink. Order at the counter and with a number, your food is brought to you. Good quality and value, with fun items, good heat and flavor. Friendly staff and good atmosphere.

Pretty good New Mexican good. I am from New Mexico so I know my food. It was mostly decent. The green chili stew was good but not the kind I am used too! The people taking my order were super slow and didn't seem to know what they were doing. And the guy preparing the food had to come ask me twice to clarify what I wanted. Overall, I would go back and it was good but could use some better management.
