Tacolicious

"Bay Area mini-chain Tacolicious just launched a brunch menu at its Mission District location in January, and now serves the weekend meal at all five of its locations. They’re starting off with six new breakfast tacos that range from fancy-pants concoctions like filet mignon and fried quail egg with salsa macha to a vegan option with roasted sweet potatoes and cashew crema." - Luke Tsai, Caleb Pershan, Eve Batey

"Mexican restaurant Tacolicious opened on Valencia Street. Sara Deseran has run Tacolicious in the Marina since 2009 and in a permanent space on Valencia since 2012. Deseran says dining habits have changed significantly because of the pandemic." - Paolo Bicchieri

"With a menu full of hits like guacamole and cheese dip, parents are sure to convince children to consume at least a bite or two, especially since there’s a Choose Your Own Adventure-style kids’ meal. There are plenty of margaritas, more advanced taco fillings, and patio and parklet seating at both locations (Mission and Marina) of this happy, laid-back, kid-friendly spot that does a fine happy hour and Taco Tuesdays." - Laura Smith Borrman, Christine Gallary

"While the name may suggest otherwise, at Tacolicious the drinks and the scene are the main draw. Take the margaritas: there are several on the cocktail list and each one is good enough to order by the pitcher. That said, the tacos are solid, as are the salads and guacamole. There's also a location in the Marina and the Embarcader."

"Tacolicious might have been low-key trolling the yoga-clad crowd when they dubbed the house salad the “Marina girl,” but fans are still ordering the fresh mix of romaine, radishes, and avocado, sprinkled with salty cotija and toasted pepitas, with an option to add on grilled shrimp." - Becky Duffett, Eve Batey
