About Us
"Serving San Francisco authentic Mexican every day"
Real Mexican Flavors, Fresh and Welcoming
El Jacal Mexican Grill started with a simple idea: bring real Mexican dishes to San Francisco using fresh ingredients and care. From our first day at 800 Cortland Ave, we wanted to create a place where everyone feels welcome. Over the years, we have grown but stayed true to our roots: bold flavors, hearty meals, and a friendly atmosphere. Our story is about passion for food and serving the community every day.
Fresh Classics Made Just for You
We take pride in our menu filled with Mexican classics and popular favorites. From burritos and quesabirrias to tacos, enchiladas, and caldos, everything is made fresh daily. We also offer burgers, mac and cheese, salads, and more for variety. Every dish is crafted with quality ingredients and attention to detail so every meal is satisfying and flavorful.
More Than A Meal — A Place for Our Community
At El Jacal Mexican Grill, it’s more than just food — it’s about people. Our guests are part of our story, from first-time visitors to regulars who keep coming back. We focus on welcoming service, a friendly environment, and convenience with dine-in, takeout, delivery, and catering. Choosing us means enjoying fresh Mexican dishes while being part of a local San Francisco community.
