Taco Time - Reservar uma mesa

Taco Perfection. The team has not skipped a beat and the accolades are well earned. Without hesitation, I feel Taco Maria delivered on all aspects. Starting with the warm welcome, the comfort conveyed by the service, to the every excellent food, the experience left us looking forward to the next time. The crab ceviche tostada and Caesar salad opened the meal. Dusted in a cap of shaved Parmesan cheese and studded with diced croutons, we enjoyed the juxtaposition of balanced flavors and textures provided by the Tijuana inspired salad.

Monique made something special tonight. She helped us navigate the menu and everything she had recommended was on point. The food was divine. We didn't take a picture of the beans. But let me tell you. These beans were something else. You've never had beans like that. The scallops were so fresh in your mouth and the guava so well paired with spices and citrus. All right.

Taco Maria. Santa Maria. This place is heavenly. Where do I start? The location is picturesque and inconceivable elegant, but nothing about it is common. The Caesar salad is also amazing. I mean, it's extraordinary. The cheese is so good. The agua fresca I had with it was a perfect pairing. The service was top notch, all about the place is great. We're so happy to have this restaurant in OC.

Food was great, had the scallops, mushrooms, striped bass, and grilled avocado. Striped bass was game changing, creamy sauce and perfectly cooked bass. Blue corn tortilla was the highlight of it all and brought all the main dishes together. The waiter changed a few times during our dinner, but the other two waitresses were incredibly nice.
