Unfortunately, the “best tacos” in San Clemente can’t hold a candle to any of the even middle-of-the-road taco shops in the SD proper area

Yeah man. Lack of diversity is a bitch
Yes, I can concur immensely. We have a couple that "try" to get authentic, even with Mex So Cal cred, but it's like they get close one day, and then it's back to gringo mex another day (S coast ORE). Better than it used to be, but the ONLY thing I miss about coastal So Cal, and the little Mex dives every other strip mall corner. Really took that availability for granted.
Pedro's in SC and O'side is barely Mex by most So Cal standards. Can't believe the lines that place gets in SC.
I got ya. There are two Mexican places I get food here. One is totally Americanized and the other is 100% authentic Mexican including the clientele which is at least 80% Mexican immigrants. The food in the two places is very different but both are good.
For most part, OC is not holding for Mexican food. I'm still laughing they cut that one small burrito in half at that spot near your place, 20w. Smorgasbord of Mexican food up in Santa Rosa.
Some good local sh!t; probably a reason the average BMI here is in the 50s - no way to compete with sbd's pics.
But have some Quesabirria, get those arteries nice, clogged, and cleared with a few Negra Modelos to wash down, and life is good.
And then there's this place Molcajetes...

You've been steered wrong and it's not your fault. I don't know what else is in San Clemente but when I was taken there years ago I said to myself there has to be a better taco shop in san clemente!
Did you get to that spot in Sebastopol yet? I think I recommended it, Martha’s.For most part, OC is not holding for Mexican food. I'm still laughing they cut that one small burrito in half at that spot near your place, 20w. Smorgasbord of Mexican food up in Santa Rosa.

Not gotten there but on a long list!
Fixed. Adolfo's in South Laguna has some pretty damn good enchiladas but overall, the whole region is lacking.
San Diego? SuperCocina on University is my all-time favorite. But a shitload of great Mexican food in SD overall.
I just started making birria recently and it's fvcking incredible. Definitely not good for my girlish figure though.
What's great about SD Mex food, is the all the regional varieties. You got lots of Sonoran, but then there's coastal/tropical states with plenty of great seafood choices. Deeper interior Mex states with their more exotic blends and influences.
But, burritos are a totally American creation, and really shouldn't even be considered authentic Mex.
Though some are really, really good anyway. A good old fashioned carne asada burrito still pleases.
