The Best Tacos in San Diego, According to a Local Food Expert | Eater San Diego

"This homey, spacious restaurant specializes in lamb barbacoa, a regional style of slow-cooked meat, that finds its way onto platters with rich lamb broth or tucked into tacos. Requiring a lengthy cooking process, the barbacoa is roasted for more than seven hours in an underground fire pit sheltered by leaves of the maguey plant. Fans of this regional dish rely on Aqui es Texcoco to deliver tender, juicy lamb delivered in tin foil with a side of soft corn tortillas. Diners can dress their tacos with toppings of their choice, including cilantro, onions, pickled onions, green or red salsa, and lime juice. Families and visitors from all over town take the trip down south for this delicacy and make themselves comfortable at one of the tables in the spacious dining room. The only San Diego location resides in Chula Vista while the remaining two are in Tijuana and Los Angeles." - Roxana Becerril
