25 Best Taco Restaurants near Rancho Santa Margarita

“Looking for a good fish & chips and Spikes came up on google search with a good rating. I called in my order for pickup and it was ready early and the fish was great! Ordered a poke bowl too that my wife & daughter loved. Jessica was very friendly and helpful. Want to come back again soon.“

“We ordered your carnitas tacos delivered a few days ago and they were the absolute best Carnitas I have ever had! And I make my own pretty good so it's tough to impress me 😄 They were 🔥 so delicious! with all of the nice crispy bits. And that cilantro dressing on them 😳 I could drink that. I'm already craving it again. Will definitely be ordering again, probably going to get that awesome 2lb meat deal you have next time. You guys rock!“

“I went through the drive through to quickly get a water and cheesecake. The man working was one of the friendliest people I’ve met. He had great energy and was super nice. Unfortunately I struggled to read his name tag, but I know how name started with a “T”. I want to go to Jack in the Box more because of the incredible service.“

“Great food, natural ingredients, homemade sauces.
I had the carne asada tacos, my go-to for taco shops. These were not your regular street tacos. They are full of meat and made with care, balanced with added ingredients to create a tasteful taco.
I called my order ahead, so I could do a quick pickup on the run. The owner was very friendly and offered the entire array of sauce selections. The freshly, homemade house sauce is the best. A little spicy but really flavorful.
Parking was not a problem bbut appeared to be limited. The shops along the mini mall have a quick turnover, so it appears to work. Seems to be ample spots to park.
The cost is very affordable and priced for return business. I think I'll try one of the burritos next visit.
Well done Mr. G!“

“There was 7 of us in town for a conference and we stumbled upon Hole in the Wall Burger! Burger was delicious the service outstanding and special sauce of the chart’s. Next time I’m in the area I’ll definitely be stopping by and have a burger!“

“Amazing food, especially the blackened shrimp and the Chile Verde quesatacos! we first tried a few days ago, and I've been craving it ever since!“

Encuentras muchas cosas de alimentos y envios a nuestras tierras y su personal Exelente son pocos los lugares donde le hablan de tu a tu solo ahi creo yo. Porque ellos tratan de ser amigable con su clientes. Al igual otro lugar quense llama LOS ANTOJITOS. en la misma plaza.“

“Food is sooooo good. They crisp up the tortilla nicely before serving so the protein holds up well. This is an amazing spot!

PS: Shoutout to the owner Edgar, we thought we lost our phone here and he went above and beyond to help us find it. This place cares about their customers!!

We can't wait to bring friends whenever they come visit us. 5/5 tacos and salsas !“

“When I came into the restaurant I was the only guest eating in the restaurant. During my meal, I watched Maria meticulously clean every table in the restaurant. I have never seen someone take so much pride in your work and be so focused on every detail. I would confidently eat off any table She just cleaned. Maria and the rest of the staff this location is always gracious and accommodating. But I really want to highlight Maria as an exemplar employee.“

“Your coming here for the authentic Mexican food for much lower prices than anything around. Not fancy and location looks a little run down, but when your getting tasty carnitas and chicken street tacos for around $2 per, and a little salsa bar, it’s a win. They’ve got amazing happy hour deals from 3-6 every day as well. Quick service and friendly environment with Mexican music subtly playing while you eat. Good experience for lunch!“

“I had charros grill cater a graduation party for 20 people this weekend. The cooks were super prompt, professional and very friendly! Tacos were big, meat was delicious and cooked fresh at my event. Salsas were amazing, rice and beans were authentic. Prices were great. I am very happy I found them! Scheduling was straightforward and communication was great leading up to the event. Gustavo and Lucio were the cooks and I scheduled with Ms. Reyna, all wonderful!“

“Todo está delicioso más los tacos al pastor“

“Surroundings are clean, food came out quick, and rock music on the speakers.

Jr jumbo jack cheeseburger and two tacos for $1.61, what more can you want?

If you’re trying to eat healthier in 2026, this ain’t it. So much lard in these tacos but that’s what makes it taste good. Taco sauce is the best.“

“The hamburgers were fresh and hot. Just made. They were very good and they always honor their coupons.We think Jack in the box is so much better then McDonalds on Mission just 2vblicks from Jack in the Box.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly. Meals just fir them.

Wheelchair accessibility: Good access and all one level.“

“I came in at around evening and the place wasn’t busy at all, so I didn’t have to wait. David at the front counter was very helpful when I came in and offered me a cup-carrier while my food was preparing. And he was very friendly as I was walking out. Thank you.

I ordered the Ultimate Cheeseburger Combo with Seasoned Curly Fries, Oreo Shake and Chocolate Overload Cake. The cake and ice cream worked well together for me and the cheeseburger was nice and juicy in the middle. The curly fries were also pretty good but there were so many I couldn’t finish them all, but I’m not complaining.

Overall I rate my first time at this Jack In The Box location a 4/5.“

“I come to the drive thru often as a DoorDash driver and today came inside, I have to shoutout your employee, Angel. The guy is so polite, quick efficient & respectful! I am going to reach out to corporate and brag on this store. This guy and the other staff I can tell consistently work hard and they are so fast. Management you guys must be great to work for. Keep up the awesome work guys.“

“I've been going to this Taco Bell for years, two decades Plus so I've got a few things to say and it's come a long way I loved that in the bar seats there had electrical outlets to plug for your phone in to charge it sucks that they have removed them however you'll be able to enjoy using the restroom in private there are two bathrooms here they are located to the left once you walk in and pass a few of the tables each bathroom is a unisex bathroom with urinal , a toilet , a sink no mirror did I mentioned that there is no mirror establishment so you will not be getting ready here you may change quickly charge your phone in there“
