    This little Mexican restaurant is a little gem. It’s so reminiscent of places you’ll see in Mexico and the food is definitely authentic. Weekend breakfast is one of my favorites there, but it’s all good. If you go outside, you can peek in the window near the back where there are usually one or two people making fresh corn tortillas. YUM!!! This is a bonus that keeps the food fresh and tasty.

    Prices are good and you can even sit outside and watch the ferries come and go. AND, you can see by the photo of the guys prepping food that they really enjoy working there!

    Finally, the perfect place to rent a bike for your trip around the bay and across the Golden Gate Bridge. In my FREE eBook (look for the yellow and blue button in the column on the left), you can grab a copy of Bike the Bay in 1/2 a Day, Your Way, which is a document I put together with instructions of how to navigate your way along the Embarcadero, past Pier 39, Fisherman’s Wharf, through the Presidio, over the Golden Gate Bridge, down the big hill into Sausalito and back to San Francisco by ferry. It’s a great trip. I love doing it and I’m sure you will too. It also includes photos of what you’ll see, and access to FREE photos to supplement the ones you take on your trip.

    The problem has been that most of the bike rental spots are too far. But now, Bike and Roll (415/229.2000) just opened a spot at 5 Embardacero Center, across from the Ferry Building. It’s right at the best place to start your trek. They offer a variety of bikes and rates … AND, the people there seemed super friendly.

    This is not the most attractive spot in town, but the teriyaki here is really good, and the price is really low. It’s a little difficult to find, but not so much that it’s packed most every day during the week for lunch. They’re not opened for dinner or on weekends, sorry; so make sure you stop by when you’re strolling down Market between Union Square and the Ferry Building.
