El Tonayense has been in the Mission District for over 15 years. We have been established since 1993. We wanted to bring authentic Mexican foods to the United States. In Mexico are food stands in every corner. We wanted to bring authentic Mexican tacos. El Tonayense decided to share with others our delicious Mexican food. Our Mexican food is fresh, fast, high quality meats and has reasonable prices. That is why we have had such success in the Bay Area. Our customers enjoy our food during their events. The family comes from the area of Tonaya, Jalisco Mexico. That is how the name of El Tonayense was born. We are here to serve you, so you can enjoy our secret salsa. Only the family Santana knows how to make the salsa. That is what distinguishes us from the other Taquerias.
