About NOPALITO


With just about a year of service, this amazing diner has really transformed the neighborhood and has customers coming in daily from all across the world. What makes Nopalito in San Francisco truly unique is that it's one of just a handful of organically sustainable kitchens spread across the city today. To experience this difference, we ask you to simply consider their Totopos con Chile, Torta Pambazo and finally their amazing Quesadilla Roja con Chicharron. These few shining examples reveal why Nopalito has set the culinary standard for organically sustainable kitchens today. They opened up their doors in 2009 with the strong roots of Veracruz, Mexico in owner and chef Gonzalo Guzman. Growing up surrounded by authentic Mexican cooking in a homestyle fashion, he grew up mastering this skill and passion for sharing the flavors and traditions of this timeless cuisine. It's truly about a community setting when it comes to dining here, an overall experience which you wont' soon forget. Some other memorable choices here include their Chips and Guacamole, wide range of Margaritas, Caldo Tlapeno, Horchata, Pork Belly which is extra tender, Quesadilla Roja Con Chicharron and more. Nopalito is truly the definition of real Mexican food you can count on.
