Orange County residents help me out please....
When I did a 4-week stint at our west coast office in Garden Grove, I ate at a tiny taco restaurant that's open 24 hours. It is on Harbor, south of Garden Grove Freeway. I don't remember exactly how far, but it is on the right hand side as you go south. It is not 'in' Garden Grove, but in Santa Ana or Costa Mesa, or one of those towns.

Can anyone tell me the name of the place? As I remember it, it was very tasty.

6. I'm trying to remember all I can.
It was free standing, not in a strip mall. Very close to the road. And open 24 hrs.

7. The only one I can think of is Molca Salsa.
But that's in Fullerton, not Garden Grove.

10. That may very well be it.
It is directly on Harbor, on the left as you are traveling north toward Garden Grove. Seems like it might have been near a 7-11, but then again, what isn't near a 7-11 out there?

14. I replied to the wrong message.
I think it was Albertos. It seems like it was an adobe-type building maybe white or yellowish white.

Thanks for all your help.

It was either really good, or I was really hungry, one of the two.
