If you haven’t checked out the new purveyors of deliciousness on Leland Avenue, it’s time to re-visit the Taqueria. Last month, the Leland Avenue landmark on the corner of Alpha Street changed ownership along with its name to El Buen Sabor #2, now managed by Ismael Echeverria. However, when you stop in you’ll likely be greeted by the friendly faces of Maria Altamirano and Diana Ferretiz, who happily greet every customer and help prepare all your Mexican favorites. Carne Asade, Pollo Asado, Enchiladas and Chile Relleno; El Buen Sabor #2 makes every dish in-house with fresh ingredients, something they’ve been doing for over 10 years in the mission district. The opening on Leland Avenue is an expansion of their very successful El Buen Sabor Taqueria at 697 Valencia Street (at 18th Street). If the Taqueria can thrive in one great neighborhood that boasts plenty of sunshine and a diverse population, why not another?
“So far so good, and I think it will get better” says Ismael when asked how he likes running his restaurant in Visitacion Valley. He even speculates that if things go well here, in 5 years maybe they’ll open up numero tres. In the meantime, he is looking forward to meeting other small business owners in Visitacion Valley and sharing his favorite plate on the menu – Camarones Diablo or Spicy Shrimp. Come in and try it for yourself, El Buen Sabor #2 is open for business at 98 Leland Avenue in downtown Visitacion Valley.
