- EEsmeraldaSan Francisco Bay Area •5 reviews5.0Dined on Jun 21, 2025We ordered oysters they were good. We also had the mixed molcajete for two people was fine. The margarita was yummy kind of small but taste was good not watered down, not too sugary. It was full of flavor. My only concern where I think they could do better is we ordered to small bottle cokes and it was $12.00. That was over priced. I’m not sure the price of the fountain drink but next time will try that. The workers were pleasant, attentive, and kind.More infoLa Más Querida Cantina & CocinaPrice: Moderate• Mexican• San Jose•4.5
