I had previously been to the Potrero location but recently went to the Hayes one as well. There were 4 of us with 2 dogs and still got seated very quickly. Throughout the meal the service was great! The fundido was really tasty and the Guac was also top notch. For mains we had a couple things to share but the quesadillas are great with a decent selection of fillings, but the burrito I had was HUGE and very, very good. We also had a pitcher of a spicy margarita which was not sweet and had a nice kick to it. All in all, we'll be back!

Amazing elevated Mexican food, great restaurant to get lunch with the family to try authentic Mexican food. Recommendations Mole Chicken Enchiladas and Pozole, the staff was fast and super nice and accommodating. My whole family enjoyed our time here at Papito!

I’ve been coming to Papito frequently during the last couple of years. Everything I’ve ordered has been delicious, but the enchiladas are the star attraction. Recommend the carnitas! The drinks are really great too, I love their margaritas and sangria. The service is attentive and friendly. Highly recommend for when you’re in Hayes Valley!

A great place for Mexican food with lots of vegetarian options. Their veggie quesadilla are very awesome, served with 3 salsas on demand. Mango salsa dip is worth trying. A great staff helping people excitedly. I highly recommend this place for vegetarian and Mexican food.

Confusing burrito. Outside was golden brown and delicious, inside had spicy chunky salsa, and then the chicken was some of the driest I’ve had in a long time — the chunks were big and generous but too big for a bite and then super dry and hard.

This was a very unique Mexican restaurant located in a very lively area of San Francisco. This restaurant gets special credit for the wonderful atmosphere, the great service, and the location which is hard to beat. The food here is pretty good, and although not the best for this type of restaurant, it was certainly unique and worth the visit. This restaurant offers a variety of Mexican dishes from tacos, soups, and other dishes, such as tortas and enchiladas. The mole enchiladas were amazing. The trees taco could probably be improved by putting just a little bit less salsa and more meat. And maybe having the potatoes be crispy instead of soaked. Otherwise, all the other items we tried were amazing. The cocktails are also really good. If you come here, you should try the charred jalapeño margarita. They also have a variety of beer on draft and in bottles if you want. The location here is great. If you can find parking, there’s also a small park within half a block away with plenty of benches to hang out in a coffee shop and other places to get dessert if you want. There’s always something going on in this area so it’s kind of a cool spot to come to if you want to kill a couple hours. The service was very friendly, fast and efficient. We were able to eat in about 15 minutes after sitting down. The prices are also pretty reasonable. For San Francisco the prices were below what I expected, which is great. Definitely worth visiting the spot if you’re in the area if youre a fan of Mexican food and cocktails

I understand that location is a factor, but I personally believe that the food is overpriced. More importantly, there’s no alcohol in my margarita.

Photos looked good and then i remembered why i dont eat mexican in neighbourhoods that arent known for that cuisine Duck taco is drenched in cheap barbecue sauce it was so sad Chorizo taco was good Also very skimpy with filling Salsa roja was disgusting, straight up oil

A review from a vegan point of view: The staff, especially the man whom we met outside of the doors, is super sweet! Our server ordered me a fish/baja taco instead of veggie taco and then made that face “uh-uh” and tried to convince me that I ordered fish taco and our whole group of 4 was like “what?” There is no plant-based protein offered and I was hungry, so naturally I didn’t want to go there but we did have a good time, the ambiance is nice (they do offer veggie quesadillas with non-vegan cheese and veggie enchiladas but not sure if it can be made vegan either). While I’m not personally asking to add vegan sour-cream or vegan cheese I’d very much appreciated to have veggie fajitas, please. The server did bring a veggie taco eventually but seemed unhappy, everything comes with cheese so make sure to tell no cheese. We shared an order of guacamole which also came topped with cheese… I had a regular beer and my friend ordered non-alcoholic beer that had a “vegan” mark on it.

Had a bunch of tacos with a friend. My favorite were the fish and pork shoulder tacos. Duck was pretty solid too. 5 dollars a taco which is standard SF pricing but could do with a little more content for that price. Overall a good go to spot in Hayes Valley. Better tacos to be found elsewhere in the city for sure though.

The wet burrito is bizzarely lukewarm at best whenever I've ordered it (for dine-in and takeout). Truly odd as it's baked, the tortilla is browned from being cooked at some point, and I would hope the bulk of the ingredients (rice, so many beans, and meat) would be hot. *Visible confusion*

Second review: Against my better judgment, we gave Papitos another try and this time it was worse. We had a couple of late night burritos and we couldn’t even finish them; they made us both really sick, almost immediately. So disappointing. First review: I ordered the chicken mole and it was literally just onion filling with some pieces of chicken. Also the meat from the carnitas tacos was really old and dry Never again
