I'm from LA and drink my fair share of margaritas, so first off, I've gotta say that I still think about the Taqueros margarita. It was GOOD. The food was wonderful. I think a lot of people have rather limited expectations of what Mexican food is, this restaurant is creative and playful and very clean-tasting in its food. It reminds me of a book of Mexican cuisine my mom had, that I would spend hours looking at as a kid - the food we ate at home was New Mexican, but that book had regional cuisines from the heart of Mexico, with influences of all the cultures (including French as well as the native ethnic influences) and the food at Taqueros reminds me of that. Don't go there expecting your favorite corner Mexican place, go there for the Mexican equivalent of NOLA or some other high-cuisine expression of the food.

Being from San Diego, my wife and I are still stunned that we paid this much for Mexican food and shocked at the total lack of any Mexican flavor in any of the dishes. We started with the $8.00 red snapper ceviche which was more like Pico de Gallo with a few bits of red snapper thrown in so they could call it a "ceviche". We moved on to the $5.00 house salad which brought back memories of the salad the lunch lady served me in elementary school. Then the entrees, the $22.00 Chile Relleno with Lamb for my wife and I had the$16.00 pork Chilaca, which was described as a fajita style dish. The lamb was mushy and resembled roast stuffed into a Chile Relleno with a slice of melted cheese with a reduction sauce that tasted like the lame Sangria my wife ordered. The pork Chilaca was nothing more than slices of tough, dry pork meat with sauteed onions, a side of black beans and rice with absolutely the worst corn tortillas ever. I can get better corn tortillas at Sav-U-Center. Although the service and atmosphere was fine the food was horribly bland and pricey. We cannot remember the last time we wasted money like this for a meal. We will never be back.
Pros: nice service and atmosphere
Cons: bland food
