8 Best Latin American Restaurants near Laguna Hills

“Where do I even start at with this little spot for great Mexican dishes?! The food here is delicious! The staff is very kind & courteous and the atmosphere is great! I definitely give a 10/10 rating here to dine at or for even take out!“

“This food truck is tucked in the same lot as George’s Episcopal Church. Pro tip: map the church so you don’t get lost. There are several eateries in that lot, but don’t get distracted just look for the green food truck and you’ll know you’ve found the right spot!

I came here right after my workout and ordered food to go. OMG, I had no idea the tacos were humongous! They are literally the size of my palm spread out! Jeeesuz!

I ordered three tacos:

Gobernador: I didn’t get to it until the next day, but the shrimp were so big and juicy, and that Chipotle aioli? Pure genius. I could put that on everything!
Octopus: The only one I ate fresh that day and oh my goodness, flavor explosion! The melted cheese, the seasoning, the texture… everything about it is 10/10!
Spicy Shrimp: I accidentally doubled up on shrimp tacos so I saved this one for the next day too, still delicious, still worth it.

Service can take a little while since there’s only one person taking orders and they’re cooking everything fresh in the truck, but trust me , it’s absolutely worth the wait!

Who would’ve thought a little food truck could make such a big impact? Don’t sleep on this hidden gem please come and taste the goodness for yourself!“

“Love the service and the food here. Their Arroz con pollo, and flan are to die for. As are other items on the menu. Even their bread and butter they serve just crazy delicious.“

“El Adobe never disappoints. The food is absolutely incredible—so delicious that we always clear our plates, and that includes the kids, which says a lot. You truly can't go wrong with any dish on the menu. The drinks are just as good and always perfectly made. The service is consistently friendly and top-notch, making you feel welcomed from the moment you walk in. On top of that, the ambiance is lively, fun, and full of character. El Adobe has become our family's favorite spot, and it's always our go-to restaurant whenever friends or family are visiting from out of town. It's memorable every single time.“

“Al Fresco Dining at Aveo Table + Bar located at the Monarch Beach Resort in Dana Point. Loved the 7 Curry Pancake and Local Fisherman's Halibut. They need to bring those Apple Fritter donuts on the menu!“
