Although everyone likes Limon in the Mission, I prefer Fresca. It’s more down-to-earth and I think the flavors are more interesting. The ceviches are always a good bet and will easily feed two. My favorite entrée is the chicken stew, which sounds simple but is actually very tasty.
Parking is not great in this area but not impossible. For the best results, park a few blocks away from Fillmore or in a paid lot in Japantown and walk. You can also take the cable car or a variety of buses.
