"This University Avenue Mexican restaurant recently expanded its hours to stay open until 3 a.m. Wednesday through Saturday (it’s open until midnight otherwise). Beyond the late-night classics like carne asada fries, California burritos, rolled tacos, and nachos, Tacaliente also serves its entire breakfast menu until the wee hours." - Candice Woo
