Kiko’s Place Seafood

I noticed Kiko’s food truck when I visited Pacific Beach. There was just one parking spot when I visited for a late lunch. I ordered a steak taco and a fish taco. Tacos came with 2 corn tortillas. I liked the mild corn flavor.
El Gordo Mexican Food

There have been many restaurants here. My favorite was BBQ Chicken which closed around 2013. They fried their chicken in olive oil and was one of my fav Korean fried chicken spots. There is one left in CA https://bbdotqchicken.com/
Donato’s Taco Shop

I visited this place in the old days when the sign said Roberto’s. Now it’s Donato’s Taco Shop. I ordered a beef taco, carnitas taco, and horchata.
