The 2011 Tequila Bar Smackdown

Eater SF explains:

What a coincidence that Tacolicious co-owner Joe Hargrave announces plans for expansion on the same day the Beretta team unveils its tequila bar/Mexican eatery idea. Tacolicious number two will be in the Mission — the same nabe the Beretta folks are eyeing for their Mexican spot. Both parties clearly agree we need more tequila bars as Hargrave and co. will be opening one adjacent to Tacolicious.

I just hope the Beretta team’s version makes something called “The Improved Tequila Cocktail.” Read on.

    This is good to hear, there is a profound lack of Mexican food served in casual surroundings in the Mission, a lack that will finally be made up for by these two businesses! Hooray, finally I will be able to get affordable Carne Asada and Carnitas in my own neighborhood!

    From the Chronicle (no further comment):

    “Tacolicious owner Joe Hargrave and executive chef Telmo Faria are bringing their Marina hot spot (2031 Chestnut St.) to the Mission development, along with an adjacent Tequila bar to be called Mosto.

    The one big menu change? The Marina Girl salad will be replaced by the Skinny Jeans salad, naturally.”

    A building that has stood empty and vandalized for years, and finally someone comes along to invest hundreds of thousands of dollars in improvements, etc. and all we get here is complaints. Nobody likes tequila anymore?
