The Great Orange County Taco Search has begun! My boyfriend Matt and I have decided to take it upon ourselves to find the best tacos in Orange County. Today we started our search at a Restaurant called La Cocina De Ricardo. I got a Carne Asada Soft Taco, and 2 chicken taquitos (i know those don’t count, but they were good!). He got a Carne Asada Soft Taco as well, and 2 crunchy tacos (his favorite), one chicken, one carnitas.
The soft taco was topped with onions and cilantro.
The simplicity of the soft taco made us think of as more of a street taco, but who knows the difference!
Delish! Now I am prett easy to please when it comes to food, but we had to be critical in order to really find THE BEST TACO! We scored them on a scale of 1-10.
Soft Taco:
Carne Asada- 7.5 (Had good flavor and light toppings, but we wish the meat was not as dry)
Crunchy Taco:
Chicken- 5 (Not very flavorful, and not very juicy, good shell)
Carnitas- 8 (Needed to be a bit juicier as well, but flavor and shell were good)
Stay tuned for more delicious tacos around OC!
