Steak and salad my favorite here. Once in a blue moon the saffron rice. I'm a local and work near by so many of the places here aren't so great. The chicken and beef empanadas are flavorful and tasty. Another good choice. It's a food truck and they've have been here for years so don't expect 5 star ambiance but their food is worth every penny. Generous portions.

Very simple food truck with simple sitting area, no frills, order at the truck and they bring it out to you. Offers tasty meat plates from Argentina. The steaks are so great for the price. Burger is huge! Service is simple.

Best burger in my life. It beats up Ramsay burger for me. Chief and server is really kind tooo.

Thank You, Yelpers, you lead me to Tanguito Argentinean Grill (... and this is why I use Yelp, for recommendations like this.) It's in Fisherman's Wharf, but not seafood focused, and is delicious, affordable, authentic Argentine cooking. The entire menu looks awesome, but I can never get past the empanadas - oh so good. Ham & Cheese, Beef, and Chicken are my personal favorites. When you go, ask for the owner, Steven / Esteban. He is the real deal, as is his grill. OBTW, Tanguito means "little tango," like the Argentine dance. Tanguito Argentinean Grill: Five-Stars, deserves 10.

Cutest little place with an amazing seating area! We had the chicken empanadas for a snack after a long day of traveling and they hit the spot. We asked for extra chimichurri because it was that good. Please bring this to the east coast!

Small place with just a few tables. You order at the window. Both plates were yummy and filling, but what I enjoyed the most was the service from who seemed to be the owner.

This place is a hidden gem at the pier, offering a delightful departure from the ordinary. My first venture into the world of Argentinian empanadas was nothing short of a taste bud adventure. We indulged in the beef, chicken, and Ham & cheese varieties, and each bite was an explosion of flavor. A word of caution, the chicken option carries a delightful spice kick! The portion sizes were just right, and the flavors left us craving for more. But the star of the show was undoubtedly the Tanguito burger - oh my goodness! The beef was incredibly tender and juicy, making it a worthy contender to replace your usual In & Out burger fix at the Pier. And to sweeten the deal, we concluded our meal with the dulce de leche crepes, where the arequipe was an absolute delight. The service was top-notch, and the owner's friendliness added to the overall charm of this place. As if it couldn't get any better, the prices were quite reasonable. Being a South Bay local, I can't wait to return for another round of culinary delights!"

I just had the pleasure of trying Tanguitos for the first time! It's a hole in the wall truck restaurant serving delicious Argentinian food, just one block away from the main Fisherman's Wharf strip! From the outside, it doesn't look like much and I didn't know what to expect, but one bite into their popular empanadas, I was immediately impressed! The empanadas are only $6 but packed with authentic and juicy flavors! The outside seating is tucked away in the back giving you a cozy and peaceful feel away from the heavy crowds of Pier 39. I highly recommend you stop by and check this secret place out! Five stars all the way!
