Description:
Unknown to the masses, but revered by many in the “know,” Cuco’s is that humble Mexican/Salvadorean shop on Haight where hot sauce requests earn mischievously smirky employee reactions. The food’s real good, everything on the menu’s a bargain, and there’s even a plantains option for anyone in search of a fruity, alternative burrito centerpiece. Cuco’s is a family-run joint - there’s a fair chance a Chipmunks album could be blaring from the kitchen when you walk in - and since that family values their time off, it’s closed on weekends.
