Coco Reños Taco Stand

Feel like you're in Mexico. Well, at least Baja!

Popular food: Great, affordable grindage with that hint of L.A. -- like the spiced and blackened tofu tacos; other intriguing entrées include the Cancún salad and blackened mahimahi tacos.

Drinks: Soft drinks.

Seating: Prepare to get cozy with the other patrons as there are only four tables and a few seats at the counter.

Extras/Notes: The chips and salsa are free and the refrescos are bottomless. Once you're done eating, slide over to the attached bar, The Reno Room, for some local long-hair flair. Two pool tables, a full bar (don't order anything frou-frou if you expect to get out alive!) and a CD-jukebox that will always be playing metal or something Rolling Stonesy in this old-school hole in the wall. Grab a booth or a seat at the bar and wait for the natives to get restless!

Parking: Street.
