Mexican Restaurants In Southern California

Enjoy tacos in Southern California.


Southern California is home to Los Angeles, San Diego and the Inland Empire. The restaurant scene offers diverse ethnic foods, but if Mexican is what you crave, the area is dominated by eateries that specialize in the cuisine, which is fitting, given the area's proximity to Mexico.


Jalisco Cafe


Jalisco Cafe has been serving authentic Mexican cuisine in Imperial Beach, San Diego County, for over 40 years. Appetizers include cheese crisp, nachos and jalapeno poppers. For breakfast, enjoy huevos rancheros, a ham and cheese omelet, or steak and eggs. For lunch and dinner, selections include fish and beef tacos, chorizo with egg, or beef chimichanga. A variety of enchiladas and fajitas is offered, including shredded beef, chicken and steak. The restaurant also offers specialties such as chile con carne and pork tips in green chile sauce. If you'd like to taste several items, try one of the combination platters. Finish your meal with a churro or homemade flan. The restaurant is open Sunday through Thursday from 7 a.m. until 9 p.m. and is open until 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
