Caliente Bistro Kitchen is a delightful hidden gem in San Francisco! 🌟 I stumbled upon this cozy Mexican spot while exploring the area, and I was so glad I did.

The carne asada taco was perfectly seasoned and incredibly tender, while the al pastor taco featured a fantastic hint of sweetness from the mango. The complimentary salsa and hot chips were addictive!

Portions are generous - my friends and I left with leftovers - and the prices are surprisingly affordable. 💰 Super friendly staff too! It’s a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Mexican food... Will definitely be back!
