Where to Eat in Carlsbad San Diego.
Juanitas Taco Shop – Lindsay, aka The Lunch Belle took me to Juanitas Taco Shop for lunch our first day in SD. I have to say this felt and tasted like the most authentic Mexican food I’ve had (outside of Mexico that is). The Tacos have amazing mix ins including Cilantro, some pico de gallo, and delicious assorted cheeses. I told Lindsay we must come back for lunch another time during the trip as it was that delicious. 3696 Ocean View Blvd., San Diego, CA,92113.
Rudy’s (Mexican Cuisine) – This was a spot we ordered in for a party of 10 people. The food was tasty and according to the local Texans the Mexican was authentic. I was a bit surprised since it was in a strip mall but hey the Texans and locals know best. I enjoyed a Beef Taco, some rice as well as all their fresh mix ins for the tacos. This was definitely good Mexican Food but not my #1 Juanitas Taco Shop, which will be hard to beat. 7662 El Camino Real # 102. Carlsbad, CA 92009-7903. 760-944-8226.
The Fruit Stand – Another great local secret is “The Fruit Stand”. They have the BEST Pico De Gaillo I’ve ever had and also some amazingly fresh Guacamole. You’ll of course need their Tostito Chips as well to accompany those appetizers and the tostitos are also to die for. I’ve been known to take a few bags back with me on the plane. Yes, they’re THAT GOOD!! 4330 Morena Blvd. San Diego (Carlsbad), CA. 92117. 858-273-7188.
