Merkado
With a spacious front bar and dining area and an excellent rear patio, it's easy to just call this Oracle Park–area establishment one of the leading places for a pre-Giants game meal. However, the food and cocktails are so good that it's a neighborhood favorite even when it's the middle of baseball's offseason. Taco Tuesday with 10 different choices is always popular, but regulars love to come for multiple courses, maybe starting with ceviche, followed by pozole verde with slow-cooked pork or a plate of grilled octopus al pastor, then churros with chocolate dulce de leche for dessert.
