The ranking

1

La Mar Cocina PeruanaWhere it’s ranked
Infatuation · 7x7 · SF Standard

Ceviche that fires the tang receptors and empanadas that puff hot steam, plus a bar that spins house leche de tigre into a cocktail crowned with an octopus tentacle.

AltamiranoWhere it’s ranked
Infatuation · SF Standard

Purple-potato causa gets extruded like Play-Doh tableside over Dungeness crab in a lumber-clad dining room, and the chipotle shrimp toast on housemade brioche is worth reliving on repeat.

Brasa BrosWhere it’s ranked
Infatuation · SF Standard

Aji amarillo meets barbecue sauce in the Brasa Bliss dip for juicy pollo a la brasa and chicken tenders by the bucket, while a DJ spins reggaeton at top volume.

Mission$$
4

Casa SofiaWhere it’s ranked
Infatuation · SF Standard

Turquoise scallop-shaped booths and garage doors open onto a sun-drenched patio, where saffron-forward arroz con mariscos and charred shrimp with white beans go Californian and seasonal.

South Beach$$$
5

FrescaWhere it’s ranked
Infatuation · SF Standard

A Fillmore Street staple for pleasing the pescatarian who doesn't feel like sushi, with pretty great sangria and solid ceviches — empanadas or bust.

Pacific Heights$$
6

Limón RotisserieWhere it’s ranked
Infatuation · SF Standard

A reliably satisfying institution where the ceviche has enough tang to make your tongue perky and the empanadas shed pastry flakes like a dandruff-shampoo commercial.

Mission$$
7

Sanguchón EateryWhere it’s ranked
Infatuation · SF Standard

The pan con chicharrón stacks roasted pork loin into a holy trinity of textures on plump, airy ciabatta — a messy, saucy beast slathered in rocoto crema.

8

MochicaWhere it’s ranked
7x7 · SF Standard

Richly marinated ceviches and charcoal anticuchos carry a main-character energy on out-of-the-way Potrero Hill, capped by pescado a lo macho, a coconut-laced seafood bouillabaisse.
