The owner (Mike) greets everyone that comes in and helps serve
the food too. It's a great low-frills, buffet style joint that has
great flavor. You pick what goes in your taco, burrito, etc. $ |

Not like "traditional" Mexican food, where everything
is so heavy. Good quality meats. Great margarita's - extensive tequila
selection. $$ |

This is as good as it gets for fresh and fast Mexican seafood. And speaking of Mexican style seafood, of which they have many (20) different entrees, La Cocina de Ricardo’s proprietor, Hamid, introduced us to a shrimp preparation we hadn’t tried before. It’s called “campechana” and it’s similar to a jumbo shrimp cocktail with sliced octopus thrown in. Wow! Light but intense, with lime, cilantro, es muy bueno! |

When you are on a budget or when you are just craving some good
cheap Mexican food, Pedro’s is the place. It’s cheap, it’s good
and it’s easy to swing by and pick some up to take home to the family
or perhaps even a Mexican picnic by the beach. Most locals go here
two times a week! Favorites include the carne asada burrito, fish
tacos and 3 rolled tacos with guac. $ |

Ricardo, a San Clemente High School graduate, convinced Mamacita
to share her recipes with the Orange County people and so she did,
opening their first restaurant in the middle 1980s. Ricardo, Alicia,
Alejandro, Estela, Bertha & Rosa as well as the rest of the
family, are dedicated to maintain a clean establishment, the best,
healthiest and most affordable Mexican food around. $$ |
