La Travesia is a neighborhood restaurant in Nob Hill run by chef-owners Rafael and Auder, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily. The kitchen makes its own corn tortillas and salsas in house, and the menu moves beyond standard Mexican fare into Guatemalan and other Central American dishes — huevos rancheros and baleadas in the morning, tamales and memelas later in the day.
The lineup includes quesabirrias, quesadillas, regular and wet burritos (the burrito de mole among them), a seafood Baja taco, and sandwiches like the torta de milanesa and the shuco chapin, a Guatemalan sandwich. The quesabirrias in particular have built a following among regulars.
It's a small, casual room that's developed a reputation as a hidden-gem spot in the neighborhood — the kind of place regulars point to for fresh ingredients, a cozy atmosphere, and prices that keep them coming back.
