Insane Cuisine at Taco Asylum

Haven Gastropub’s executive chef takes on tacos at the Camp.

Orange County is a well-known hub for traditional Mexican food. Le Cordon Bleu trained Executive Chef Greg Daniels adds a creative twist on classic south of the border cuisine at Taco Asylum in Costa Mesa. Tacos range from the mild-mannered chimichurri steak taco with buttermilk fried onions and potato hash to the exotic curried paneer taco wrapped in a naan tortilla and topped with raita and tomato chutney. Taco Asylum also boasts a short, yet impressive list of beers on tap. Wash down a ghost chili pork taco (commonly regarded as the world’s second hottest chili!) with a cold and delicious Green Flash West Coast IPA. 2937 S.
