Benito’s Taco Shop
Several locations in LA
1544 S. La Cienega Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90035

Open 24 hours, awkwardly-shaped parking lot, cash only.

I was visiting my buddy Matt down on So-cal and had a hankering for some legit Mexican food, close by his pad. The “close by” factor led us to Benito’s for lunch.

Although there was a huge “B” placard in the window, we ventured forth. (In case you don’t know about the restaurant ratings, click here).

Taco Mesa
Many locations in the OC.
647 W. 19th St.
Costa Mesa, CA 92627
(949) 642-0629

Where or where is the equivalent of this in San Francisco? I’ve heard rumors that certain taco trucks provide such delicious fare but none of my friends dare venture with me…and we all know it’s more fun to eat with friends.

Anyway, just wanted to let you know about Taco Mesa - so you don’t have to drive all the way down to Tijuana to get legit tacos. Instead, you just have to go to Orange County.
