Mamacita

Mamacita is one of my favorite mexican restaurants in the city.  The trendy yet casual atmosphere and lively bar makes for the perfect date spot. Their warm, out of the oven chips and fresh guacamole with diced tomatoes and cilantro is an absolutely addicting starter. As a taco lover, I have tried nearly all of their taco varieties and I must say the pulled pork, skirt steak or crispy chicken tacos are all equally amazing in taste. And I can't dine here without ordering their signature 'mamacita margarita' with fresh squeezed lime juice to accompany my meal.

confession: barry zito {pitcher for the sf giants} says this is one of his favorite spots, and this makes me want to visit. i haven't yet. maybe now, since i've heard it's amazing from someone other than a really sexy professional athlete, i will finally stop by for a visit.

Ilse said...

true, the F21 ring was what inspired me to make this one in a sterling silver version.. I react very badly on non-silver jewellery :( you can find it on eBay though!

and this restaurant sounds like heaven.. Mexican food's the best!

looks delish!!!!

Valerie said...

Oh my! Those tacos look incredible. Pulled pork might be my favorite kind, although I love chicken, steak, and fish tacos too. Mexican food might be my all time favorite, especially if you throw a margarita in the mix.
