    "Big Carnitas" soft taco
    Owen K.

    My son recommended Tacos Elsinore #2, it's easy to find and has plenty of parking. Definitely a locals joint. The service is friendly and the dining room and restrooms (get the key from the cashier) are clean. My wife ordered the Friday special. It's a huge soft carne asada taco, look at the pic I posted. Also, she ordered the crispy shredded beef taco, she preferred the crispy taco and will be giving the leftovers to our son. I ordered the "Big" carnitas soft taco ... so, my son loves the California Burrito which I haven't had the pleasure of tasting. The prices are very friendly (inflation nowadays) and portions are huge. Have a blessed day!

    According to my hubby Tacos Elsinore #2 is Lake Elsinore's little hidden gem! Lol The restaurant is a small establishment but it's nice and clean and has enough space for a few tables so you can dine in if you want to eat there. (We dined in ) Their food always tastes fresh . Their 1.50 tacos are really good! They have a good amount of meat and the price is unbelievable! $1.50 a taco! They offer the 1.50 tacos on Monday and Thursday I think. If you're looking for a quick bite and you're in the Lake Elsinore, area then you might want to try Tacos Elsinore #2 You just might like it too.

    Tacos Elsinore is the worse place you can eat. Food is flavorless the salsas are watery seriously don't waste your money.

    This small location is tied in with the local park just past downtown. My initial impressions were…read morenot that great because I saw that the park public restrooms were inside the location and fenced in. The initial odor wasn't so pleasant. The men's bathroom did not have hand washing soap and it was very dark inside. I was prepared to give a very unfavorable rating. However. after receiving and tasting the food and drinks I was very surprised. The food was amazing and much authentic. The aguas frescas were definitely fresh and delicious! I observed patrons enjoying their taquito plate and burritos. I will definitely return to try another entree. They do only offer outside patio seating but I think it's part of the ambiance. The service was very friendly. I definitely could tell that they use fresh products. Again, some of the negatives was the occasional restroom odor and that they charge a service fee for paying via credit card. Don't confuse it with La Única restaurant downtown

    Another go to Mexican spot in Lake Elsinore is El Unico. This is my go to for Cabesa Tacos. Hands…read moredown they have the best and most tender cabesa tacos that I've ever had. This reminds me of my childhood. Customer service is great and the staff is always helpful. The ambiance is cozy outside type of area where you'll see birds around you, bugs flying around so your orders may end up being to go as it's an outside type of seating. Other than that the rest of the food from what my wifey has had been very good and on point.

    Hola Emilio! We had…read morelunch today at Emilios place and I have to say I was very impressed. It's taco Tuesday and they had 4 or five different tacos on offer for 3.50 each. If you have ever had a taco Tuesday special other places you may have gotten these flimsy street tacos with not much inside except cilantro an onions. Well that's not these. Crispy shells stuffed with meat, lettuce and lots of cheese, a bargain at any price. A custom veggie taco was made for my veggie friend and recently appointed Elite yelper Brent. Thumbs up from the far end of the table. Chili Verde, rice and beans was excellent, besting my regular spot in Menifee. The table salsa is just OK and got the job done. Service was solid, we stayed almost 2 hours and our server was wonderful til the end. Oddly the place was empty other then a few regulars at the bar, but I hear they are busy at night. I already can't wait to return

They have a separate bar area if you just want to chill and catch some of the local games on the tube. The main area is so spacious that it's a great spot for gatherings. We ordered the appetizer sampler which was pretty good for all of us. I personally went for the Chicken Fajitas and they definitely hit the spot. Since it was a weekend they had drink specials so you know we got a round of them. For dessert we had the Flan and Chocolate Nachos. They flan was bomb and the nachos were pretty interesting, not my thing but I'm glad I tried them and I can say I did once,LoL. Overall it was a great experience and service was on point and not to forget to ask about their happy hour specials if you wanna get lit! And that's my take on it, Peace out peeps...
