Tahona Mercado operates as a specialty market and bottle shop on Nob Hill, stocked with craft spirits, beer, and wine with a strong lean toward Mexican mezcal, tequila, raicilla, and bacanora. It's part of a family of brands that started in San Diego and expanded through Baja California before landing in the Bay Area.
The food side runs breakfast through dinner, ordered counter-style off a menu of tacos, tortas, and quesadillas. Carnitas tacos come on thick corn tortillas, and a mushroom version shows up alongside them; breakfast brings burritos, chia seed pudding, and specialty coffee from Sol y Soul. Window bar seats look out over the Nob Hill hills.
Regulars describe it as an authentic, consistent neighborhood spot with ingredient quality and hospitality that keep people coming back.
