Hippie taco heaven?
12.04.09
Ah, the little hippie taco stand that could. Locals will tell you that Taco Loco in Laguna Beach has become a little hole-in-the-wall icon of the picturesque seaside town. Purists may decry the Californianized Mexican fare, what with offerings like the blackened mushroom and tofu taco ($3) to calamari nachos, but that doesn’t mean it’s any less enjoyable. Perhaps the most popular item there? The blackened mushroom and tofu burger—just a basic a square of tofu with sauteed mushrooms that’s made thoroughly satisfying with a scoop of avocado pico de gallo and healthy douse of hot sauce ($6).
Then head outside at the patio tables to scarf down your meal while watching PCH traffic whiz by and let that ocean breeze hit you. Now that’s a quintessential coastal California moment.
Taco Loco is located at 640 S. Coast Hwy in Laguna Beach
