Uno Dos TacosB-Worth Trying

595 Market St, San Francisco, CA 94105 · Restaurant · 4.4/5 Google (2027 reviews)

Reservations · Delivery · Takeout · Outdoor seating

Fast-casual FiDi taco spot with quick service, strong happy hour, and decent tacos; value is fair for the area but service and consistency can be hit-or-miss.

Why it gets a B- for overall quality

Uno Dos Tacos delivers reliable fast-casual Mexican dining with strong food quality in carnitas and fish tacos, plus exceptional speed that suits FiDi's lunch crowd. However, inconsistent execution—dry tortillas, portion variation, and occasional service friction—prevents a higher grade. The bright, modern setting and solid happy hour value make it a worthwhile neighborhood choice, though it doesn't compete with Mission taquerias as a citywide destination.

Restaurant Summary

Set in the heart of FiDi, Uno Dos Tacos runs on a fast-casual rhythm with kiosks, a pickup counter, and a buzzy tequila bar that draws an after‑work crowd. The vibe is lively and easygoing, with lots of outdoor seating and quick-fire orders. As one diner put it, "We ordered at the kiosk and had tacos in minutes," capturing a theme of speed over ceremony that suits busy lunch breaks and casual meetups. The cooking leans classic taqueria: carnitas, asada, pescado, and vegetarian standbys without much fuss. When they hit, tacos taste bright and satisfying—several fans call out the carnitas and fish tacos—though a minority report dry tortillas, small burritos, or uneven prep. Prices are fair for the area, and the $7 happy hour (margaritas, nachos, and street tacos) makes it a value play for FiDi. Families should do fine here: kids can stick to simple tacos, burritos, chips and guacamole, or churros. There is no formal kids menu, but familiar choices and a casual setup make it workable. If your crew prefers big portions, consider plates over burritos or plan to add a side.
