Fonda Moderna Taqueria

Mexican · Tustin · 3 source comments

Real talk. The new Mess Hall at The Flight (technically in Tustin, but on the boarder) near the District has the most amazing taco and burrito place. Fonda Moderna. Amazing fish tacos. Incredible vegan and vegetarian options. A super popular taco flight. They make their own tortillas daily. Amazing place. I eat there twice a week.

El Matador

Mexican · Costa Mesa · 5 source comments

El Ranchito has gone downhill. El Matador is more Mexican than Mi Casa but Mi Casa is a guilty pleasure if you love cheese 😂
