Food is excellent and so is the service. The ambience is spacious and inviting. Had the burrito special which you can't beat for $10. It was very fresh, rich, flavorful, and a generous portion. Highly recommended.

Hi Christin,I entered the restaurant yesterday (10/31) at 3:40 pm (I was starving!), and the lady behind the counter told me ya'll were closed! Not OK. If you say you close at 4:00, then you should close at 4:00. I really like your restaurant & love the food. However, this left a bad taste in my mouth.

FOOD: 1/10 Steak burrito was just SALTY it was hard to taste anything but salt. I'm hoping this was a one off. I'm in the neighborhood a-lot and if I'm as hungry as I was I may try a margarita and maybe see if another dish is less salty. SERVICE: 10/10 the staff was friendly and food can out fast enough.AMBIANCE: 6/10 The restaurant is bigger than I expected and decor is a 10 and I love the music (modern spanish) was perfect. There are string lights on the back patio that give the impression that there is night seating but they close at 5pm? the place needs a little attention to detail (no toilet seat covers) in the bathroom. In the restaurant some of the items look dirty needs a deep clean? or maybe just a good wipe down.

First timer here, I found Tato simply because I was hungry & didn't wanna leave far from home. Never even knew this place existed so I thought I'd try it out. Funny thing is I came here on a Friday which is a day they have specials for burritos. FYI: they have specials EVERYDAY!!! I ordered over the phone for pickup so when I arrived all the staff were very friendly and the place was very clean. I must say I've never had a grilled burrito before (because I find them dry) so that was different. I also read the menu a little too fast before I ordered and missed that the burrito came with mushrooms. But overall everything was good. Can't complain about something that I missed. I would give Tato another try.

Had food catered for our office Cinco de Mayo celebration luncheon. Everything was pretty tasty and good sized portions. We also had 2 pitchers of horchata that was delicious. We ordered a carrot dish for a vegetarian but I would skip this. They sent us macaroons instead of Mexican wedding cookies.

5* food and 5* charity This place offers amazing food all week.But on Fridays, it's unique.They offer these fantastic taco plates for for whatever you can pay. If you're willing to pay the full price of $10, they will then donate towards a charity. It doesn't get any better than that. Turkey is pretty tight and the meat offered varies based on availability

I told my vegan friend when he was in town next we would go here for lunch and that's exactly what we did today after picking him up from SFO. We found easy parking across the street and I was surprised to see just how big the restaurant is. There are a number of tables in the front, and then they have a shaded patio outside with additional seating. Since it's hot today, we decided to grab a table inside with a few other lunch patrons. You can mix and match the taco plate, so I got the steak, chicken, and squash tacos with their horchata cocktail. My friend also had a taco platter with the carrot, mushroom, and salmon tacos and their hibiscus like margarita. Our food came out in about 5-10 minutes with our drinks following. I really enjoyed the plate, even the rice and beans were flavorful. I don't know that I could pick a favorite taco, they all had different flavor profiles and I thought they were all good. If I had a complaint, it would be the tacos were overfilled, but I just ate some off with a fork until I could eat it with my hands. My cocktail was also delicious. It's not enough to knock a star, but it seems like the seating area also doubles as a storage area, and it could look a lot cleaner if some of that was behind doors and cabinets. Ex: I wasn't sure if the outside was a patio because there were a bunch of boxes right by the door leading outside. Nice to have another spot in the Bayview to enjoy a meal and will definitely come back.

I had an excellent experience with the mushroom tacos at this Bayview restaurant that is one of a few spots in the community pushing the oft-neglected southeastern corner of San Francisco into a foodie up-and-comer.The tacos brought a delightful complexity of flavors to the table. Not only were the portions generous, but the prices were quite fair for the amount of food you get. However, my only disappointment was the limited taco choices. You get three tacos, but there's no sampler option.Overall, it's a neighborhood restaurant with ambition that's worth a visit.

Holy Tato!!!!! We are regulars at All Good Pizza and when I went on their website, I saw they had a taco shop not far away and a coffee shop as well!!! First, thank you for bringing deliciousness to the bayview . Now back to Tato...I placed our order over the phone and was told it'd be ready in ten minutes! Street parking was plentiful and when I walked in, I was pleasantly surprised how clean, how beautifully decorated and airy the interior was (they have outside dining as well) and how friendly the staff was!!! The food was already bagged and ready for us to enjoy. We ordered a variety of chicken, steak, shrimp and pork tacos. Wow, wow wow! Each one had a distinct flavor and each one was absolutely delicious! We ordered a side of guacamole and damn........I'd go back just for that. Check them out, you won't be disappointed!

Taro is a great place for Mexican food that offers different specials each day for $10. We generally go for taco Tuesday. Service is awesome, food is great and ambiance is welcoming and festive. One of my favorite spots on third street. Give them a try the food is really tasty and well prepared!
