Taco María

17 Restaurants Worthy Of A Day Trip Outside LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Taco Maria, one of the most acclaimed modern Mexican restaurants in Southern California, recently dropped their tasting menu format, but eating there still feels like a very special experience. Their updated menu has a lot of compelling options, like blue cornbread with huitlacoche butter, a lamb tongue tlayuda, and probably our favorite caesar salad in existence. Its location inside an upscale shopping plaza is a tad generic, but it never takes away from the inventive food coming out of the kitchen. And besides, who’s really complaining about watching a dancing fountain all night? " - Brant Cox, Garrett Snyder
