On one of our Saturday walks, Fran and I decided to try the new taco shop in the Lumberyard. We often end up at The Taco Stand, but we decided to try the new kid in town, City Tacos. City Tacos was born in North Park several years ago, and now has five locations, including La Mesa and Encinitas. They will soon be opening in Sorrento Valley.We were pleasantly surprised with the delicious meal we ate. It's definitely just a taco stand, but oh, are these tacos good. It may be my new favorite taco place in the area. We ordered two different tacos and split, so we could try more than one thing. The pork chorizo taco with pineapple was served on a freshly made thick, hot corn tortilla. It was delicious. The chicken taco consisted of big chunks of chicken, tomatoes, sliced almonds and arugula. It was served on a flour tortilla, freshly made. We enjoyed both tacos, and decided we will come back soon again and try some of their other interesting flavor combinations.
They also offer vegan, vegetarian and Paleo tacos, so they cover all the bases. Side dishes include guacamole and chips, black beans, and Mexican corn on the cob. Indoor and patio seating are available. We were their first customers of the day, but I imagine it gets busy and very lively as the day goes on. It's a great place to stop for a small snack (one taco is about $4) or a big meal when you're in the Lumberyard. You'll be happy you tried City Tacos.
