My favorite SF restaurant, they specialize in roasted dungeness crab. Order one crab each and share the garlic noodles and you will remember it forever. Sister restaurant Crustacean (same menu) is closer to downtown.

This is the most famous tacqueria in the city (country?). Lines can be long but it moves fast. There's plenty of other options in the neighborhood if you don't want to wait. You can't go wrong with Mexican in this part of the city.
