This is one of our favorite Taco shops/Restaurants in San Clemente. They have GREAT quality Mexican Food at a fantastic price. They have a cool vibe inside too and have outdoor deck for dining too. It's not table service, pretty casual where you order and they bring it to you. Also great for take-away and I think they deliver!

We love La Columbiana. Its located at the North end of town on El Camino Real kind of off the beaten path BUT the food is amazing. Super fresh and cooked to order. Super small and intimate with a little outdoor patio. Great atmosphere and family- owned & run business. You will probably meet the owner, she is usually there and comes around to say hello to her customers. Great for lunch and dinner!
